+
+## [1.3.0] - 2025-10-18
+
+### Added
+- Introduced programmatic `defineModel` API for model definitions, eliminating the need for decorators (`model.ts`).
+- Added `MetadataStorage` class to manage model configurations without `reflect-metadata`.
+- Added support for defining lifecycle hooks in `ModelConfig` or as class methods (`hooks.ts`).
+- Added `example.ts` to demonstrate the new programmatic API usage.
+- Extended `ModelConfig` interface to support columns, relations, hooks, versioning, and soft deletes (`types.ts`).
+
+### Changed
+- Replaced decorator-based model definitions with `defineModel` API, removing dependency on `reflect-metadata` and TypeScript experimental features (`experimentalDecorators`, `emitDecoratorMetadata`).
+- Updated `stabilize.ts` to export `defineModel` and remove `reflect-metadata` import.
+- Modified `repository.ts` to use `MetadataStorage` for table names, columns, relations, validators, and soft delete fields.
+- Rewrote `hooks.ts` to support hooks via `ModelConfig` and class methods, integrated with `MetadataStorage`.
+- Updated `migrations.ts` to generate schemas using `MetadataStorage` instead of decorator metadata.
+- Revised `types.ts` to remove decorator-related types and add `ModelConfig`, `ColumnConfig`, and `RelationConfig` interfaces.
+- Updated `README.md` to reflect the new programmatic API, remove decorator references, and update examples.
+- Ensured compatibility with `verbatimModuleSyntax` by using `export type` for type exports in `stabilize.ts`.
+
+### Removed
+- Deleted `decorators.ts` as decorators are no longer used.
+- Removed dependency on `reflect-metadata` from the project.
+
+### Fixed
+- Fixed TypeScript type errors in `repository.ts` for `columns` and `relations` by mapping `MetadataStorage` outputs to match expected types.
+- Corrected `runHooks` in `repository.ts` to call `hook.callback(entity)` instead of `hook()`.
+- Fixed TypeScript `verbatimModuleSyntax` error in `stabilize.ts` by separating type and value exports.
