 # application-forms-wizard CHANGELOG
 
+## 1.2.6 - 2026-09-11
+
+- task-list-surface now emits a notObservableHere row for AC-24101-1 alongside the existing conformanceOnly server row: the AC contract names driving the real browser to /task-list and reading data-step-state per step, the progressbar aria values and the enumerated step order from the rendered DOM. The AC is now represented on the shelf as (i) a conformanceOnly counting row observing the varied-manifest surface derived from /__task-manifest.allowedStates and (ii) a notObservableHere row carrying the AC id and the browser-observable-half reason.
+- Anatomy test pin bumped to 1.2.6.
+
+## 1.2.5 - 2026-09-11
+
+- Adds a contributions/probes pack meeting rule 7d.
+- Probes: task-list-surface, step-page-shape, draft-persistence-round-trip.
+- Task-list order and progressbar values are derived from two varied manifests the probe controls; AC-24101-1 is a conformanceOnly row because the closed enum is validated against the fixture's /__task-manifest rather than a shipped enum from the applying project; the row carries a limitation naming that gap and the AC id.
+- Validation timing (blur/change/submit) is a conformanceOnly row anchored on AC-24102-1: the probe drives /validate twice (an invalid submit then a valid submit that references the prior errorCount) and asserts the /validate rebuild count differs across the two calls; the limitation names that the DOM-side blur/change/submit browser events are not observable on a server-driven probe pack.
+- Anatomy test pin bumped to 1.2.5.

 - Declares `suggestedCompanions` `logging` (every step transition, validation failure and save-and-return event writes one request-scoped log line with the correlation identifier and the step slug) and `errorHandling` (the error-summary contract constructs an internal error record per failed field through the applied error-handling factory). Does NOT declare `providesRoles` (leaf blueprint per spec). Does NOT declare `capabilities` and does NOT declare `requiresAppliedCapabilities` (no auth required).
 - Consumes `application-empty-error-states` for the no-in-progress empty state on the /in-progress list surface; the wizard's TAC-2503 delegates the zero-drafts case to the sibling's empty-list state and reads `[data-surface="empty-list"]` with a `[data-recovery="create"]` control from the sibling. `application-account-settings` will consume this blueprint for its multi-part account setup flow and the summary-review confirm-before-save gate.
