 ## Unreleased
 
+## 0.21.0 — 2026-10-28
+
+Clients from a program's address alone, and the last pieces Anchor's client resolves for you: `has_one` accounts,
+PDAs seeded from another account's fields, and `emitCpi` events as they happen. Programs and their bytes are
+unchanged. Not externally audited (see SECURITY.md).
+
+### Added
+- `typesol client --address <program id> --url <rpc>`: a client from the IDL on chain, the canonical Program Metadata
+  IDL (`typesol idl publish`, Codama) or else Anchor's IDL account (`anchor idl init`).
+- Generated clients: `resolve.<instruction>(rpc, accounts)` fills in `has_one` accounts that do not sign from the
+  account that names them, as Anchor's client resolves `relations`, and PDAs seeded from another account's fields
+  (`seeds = [b"vault", book.owner]`: the account is read, then the PDA derived).
+- `watchEvents(rpcSubscriptions, { abortSignal, rpc })`: with an RPC, `emitCpi` events arrive live too (the transaction
+  is fetched when the program invoked itself).
+
 ## 0.20.0 — 2026-10-28
 
 The generated TypeScript clients catch up with Anchor's: remaining accounts, listing and watching accounts, sending
