+[Unreleased](https://github.com/dotenvx/dotenvx/compare/v2.23.0...main)
+
+## [2.23.0](https://github.com/dotenvx/dotenvx/compare/v2.22.0...v2.23.0) (2026-08-31)
+
+### Added
+
+* Support comma-separated env file paths with `-f` and the `config({ path })` option. Example: `dotenvx run -f .env.local,.env -- node index.js`
+* Add `DOTENV_PATH` (or `DOTENV_F`) to support the same. Example: `DOTENV_PATH=.env.local,.env`
+
+### Changed
+
+* Rename `DOTENV_CONFIG_*` variables to `DOTENV_CONVENTION`, `DOTENV_IGNORE`, and `DOTENV_QUIET`, while retaining their existing `DOTENV_CONFIG_*` names as fallbacks
 
 ## [2.22.0](https://github.com/dotenvx/dotenvx/compare/v2.21.0...v2.22.0) (2026-08-27)
