v0.56.0 published 2026-08-19T19:29:38Z, prerelease=false. Release body is only a compare URL. compare v0.55.1...v0.56.0 is two chore(release) commits, diverged, merge_base 659c7aac. fa2f27aee (retry/TTL) is not an ancestor (compare diverged, behind_by=7). v0.56.0 is also behind v0.55.1 by the Cloud Workstations OAuth redirect 58ba19945 (#28688). v0.57.0-preview.0 (same day, prerelease=true) is 24 commits ahead of that merge-base and contains both. npm latest=0.56.0.
Channel: tagged-release for 0.56.0; preview-or-beta for 0.57.0-preview.0. Half: neither on the stable tag; both on preview.
Operator consequence: default install is 0.56.0. Do not read it as a capability drop. Hold v0.55.1 if you needed Cloud Workstations OAuth. Canary preview if you needed retry/TTL.
