 The project follows Semantic Versioning. During `0.x`, minor releases may change user-facing contracts when the change is documented with a migration note. Patch releases remain backwards compatible bug fixes.
 
+## 1.3.0-rc.3 - 2026-09-28
+
+- Release Meta stream deadlines after HTTP setup errors, stream completion, cancellation and early iterator closure; retain the original provider error and natural process exit.
+- Certify valid approval recovery using persisted pre-approval validation receipts without accepting additional executions, new errors or mismatched approved calls.
+- Bound Desktop smoke renderer diagnostics and retain phase timing without extending the watchdog or weakening lease/approval checks.
+- Pin the independent Code RC to Harness RC3. Local corrected-artifact acceptance reached 41/42: OpenAI and Qwen 14/14, Meta 13/14 with one HTTP 504. The operator authorized proceeding with RC preparation despite this provider failure; protected certification remains separate and is not recorded as passed.
+
+## 1.3.0-rc.2 - 2026-09-28
+
+- Reject a mismatched `apply_patch` proposal digest during input validation, before requesting operator approval. Invalid calls remain non-mutating and can be corrected by the model; valid calls still require the original approval.
+- Preserve the exact provider certification assertions after the failed RC1 attempt; no historical tag or artifact is changed.
+- Prepare the independent Code RC with an exact Harness RC2 dependency and protected artifact/provenance publication workflow.
+
+## 1.3.0-rc.1 - 2026-09-28
+
+- Add explicit terminal-independent Harness engine, protocol, client, local-service and ACP entrypoints while preserving historical root exports and stable signatures.
+- Extract the Code terminal product into its own unpublished package with the distinct `zhivex-code` binary; Harness 1.x keeps its existing binaries and state contracts.
+- Add transitive architecture checks and installed candidate acceptance for engine approvals/recovery and Code execution/cancellation across npm, pnpm, Yarn and Bun. The new APIs target the future Harness 1.3 line; RC1 targets npm `next` and does not claim completion of the provider roadmap.
+
 ## 1.2.0 - 2026-09-27
 
 - Promote the code validated in 1.2.0-rc.13 to the stable release line, targeting npm `latest` through the protected GitHub Actions workflow.
