 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.2.3] - 2026-08-04
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Composite paths no longer drop backend-specific keyword arguments.
+  `CompositePosixPath.symlink_to()` accepted only the stdlib signature and
+  forwarded nothing else, so a backend's documented extension was unreachable
+  through the very abstraction meant to expose it — a path obtained from
+  `host.path()` raised `TypeError: unexpected keyword argument 'force'` even
+  when the selected backend implemented `force=`.
+
+  Forwarding is **signature-aware** rather than blind: the selected backend's
+  method is inspected, and only keywords it declares are passed through.
+  Anything else still raises `TypeError` at the composite boundary, naming
+  the backend class and the rejected keyword. Blind passthrough would have
+  turned a clear error at the abstraction boundary into a confusing one from
+  inside a transport, and the existing contract — a backend lacking a
+  capability raises `NotImplementedError`, never a silent no-op — is
+  unchanged. A method whose signature cannot be introspected (a C function,
+  a `functools.partial`) receives the keywords, since an error from it is no
+  worse than calling it directly.
+
+  Applied to `mkdir()`, `chmod()`, `unlink()`, and `rmdir()` alongside
+  `symlink_to()`, since the same normalization affected each of them.
+
+  This pairs with `pathlib_next`'s `symlink_to(force=)`, which that project
+  exposes as a generic `Path` extension over a `_symlink_to()` backend
+  primitive. No version floor change: hostctl's `pathlib_next>=0.8.6` floor
+  stays where it is, so `force=` is forwarded when the installed version
+  provides it and rejected at the boundary when it does not.
+
+## [0.2.2] - 2026-07-29
+
+### Changed
+
+- Dependency ranges widened to admit `pathlib_next` 0.9 and `netimps` 0.2:
+  `pathlib_next>=0.8.6,<0.10` and `netimps>=0.1,<0.3`, with the `ssh` extra's
+  `pathlib_next[sftp-async]` bound moved to `<0.10` alongside it. The
+  previous `netimps<0.2` also conflicted with `pathlib_next` 0.9's own `uri`
+  extra, which requires `netimps>=0.2.0`.
+
+  The floors stay where they were rather than rising to the new minors:
+  hostctl uses no API added in either release — its three netimps functions
+  (`get_default_port`, `is_local_address`, `try_parse`) all exist in 0.1, and
+  `ProgressReader` is hostctl's own wrapper, unrelated to pathlib_next 0.9's
+  native `copy(progress=)`. A floor demanding versions the code does not need
+  would exclude working installs for nothing. The ceilings span two minors
+  because both projects are pre-1.0, where a minor may break.
+
+  Verified against both ends of the range: the suite passes with
+  `pathlib_next` 0.8.6 and 0.9.0, each alongside `netimps` 0.2.0.
