 # Kudzu Releases
 
+## 0.13.1 - Nested Form Metadata
+
+Kudzu 0.13.1 composes conditional fields, dynamic keyed rows, dirty/touched
+display, and reset from ordinary application state without a form registry.
+
+### Changed in 0.13.1
+
+- Added conditional assignee fields backed by one ordinary object state.
+- Added dynamic checklist rows with immutable add, reorder, remove, input, and
+  touched updates over one ordinary array state.
+- Preserved exact keyed DOM identity through reorder and reset while releasing
+  removed and reset-added rows.
+- Kept native constraints, field/form server errors, retained values, and retry
+  behavior from `0.13.0`.
+- Updated `create-kudzu@0.1.119` to generate projects on
+  `@kudzujs/core@^0.13.1`.
+
+### Output Evidence
+
+- The application emits 44 files totaling 138,064 raw / 47,964 aggregate gzip
+  bytes with deploy digest
+  `f0d96cfd5dee2cf3fa67f4ebe25d8b32cbb1bf66e72ed5ca1c29bd06fdcc0a33`.
+- The maintained two-route session remains 17 JavaScript files and totals
+  65,404 raw / 23,899 aggregate gzip bytes; `/help` remains 0 B JavaScript.
+- No semantic primitive, IR kind, compiler pass, production compiler/runtime
+  line, normalization rule, adapter, public API, registration function, proxy
+  metadata graph, schema adapter, or form runtime was added.
+
+### Validation
+
+- Required Chrome proves dirty/touched output, conditional ownership, stable-key
+  reorder, removal release, native reset, and exact retained/released identity.
+- The existing keyboard validation and delayed `422`, `503`, and `201` journey
+  passes while nested assignee and checklist values survive failures.
+- Seven fresh Chrome profiles record a 3.3 ms list-to-detail median with a
+  3.2-4.7 ms range. The range overlaps `0.13.0`, so no latency change is claimed.
+
+### Limits
+
+Dynamic field names, schema-driven registration, generic watchers, and proxy
+dirty/touched graphs remain unsupported. Add framework metadata only after
+independent real forms prove the same otherwise-inexpressible graph.
+
+### Upgrade
+
+```sh
+npm install @kudzujs/core@^0.13.1
+```

 - **Done condition:** application composition is accepted or the smallest
   repeated metadata semantic is isolated.
 
+**Completion evidence:** the maintained Alpha issue form now owns nested
+assignee metadata as one ordinary object state and a dynamic checklist as one
+ordinary array state with stable string keys. Native `input`, `blur`, `change`,
+and `reset` events drive explicit dirty/touched display, conditional assignee
+fields, immutable checklist add/reorder/remove operations, and reset to the
+authored baseline. Required Chrome proves retained checklist keys preserve exact
+DOM identity through reorder and reset, removed and reset-added keys disconnect,
+conditional ownership releases the assignee controls, and native reset clears
+uncontrolled title/body values plus application-owned metadata. The existing
+keyboard constraints and delayed `422`, `503`, and `201` server journey continue
+to pass while nested assignee/checklist values survive field and form failures.
+
+The first failing fixture was the `0.13.1` project-application contract against
+the released `0.13.0` Alpha form. Native controls and existing object/array
+state, condition, keyed-list, binding, and handler semantics close it without a
+normalization rule, adapter, semantic primitive, IR kind, compiler pass,
+production compiler/runtime line, runtime concept, public API, registration
+function, proxy metadata graph, schema adapter, or form runtime. The
+machine-readable decision is `closed-by-application-composition`; dynamic field
+names, schema-driven registration, generic watchers, and proxy dirty/touched
+graphs remain unsupported until independent real forms prove a repeated gap.

+raw / 803 aggregate gzip bytes to 65,404 / 23,899 bytes. This is authored
+route-specific form behavior, not a shared form runtime; `/help` remains 0 B
