description: >-
  Structured capture of the dated product changelog (semver, newest first). All twelve entries are
  additive — new options, formats, headers, delivery modes and SDK releases; no entry announces a breaking
  change or a removal. The changelog names the SDK version that ships each feature, which is the only
  place the SDK-to-API mapping is published.
