 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-02-10 - 23.1.0 - feat(rust-bridge)
+integrate tsrust to build and locate cross-compiled Rust binaries; refactor rust-proxy bridge to use typed IPC and streamline process handling; add @push.rocks/smartrust and update build/dev dependencies
+
+- Add tsrust to the build script and include dist_rust candidates when locating the Rust binary (enables cross-compiled artifacts produced by tsrust).
+- Remove the old rust-binary-locator and refactor rust-proxy-bridge to use explicit, typed IPC command definitions and improved process spawn/cleanup logic.
+- Introduce @push.rocks/smartrust for type-safe JSON IPC and export it via plugins; update README with expanded metrics documentation and change initialDataTimeout default from 60s to 120s.
+- Add rust/.cargo/config.toml with aarch64 linker configuration to support cross-compilation for arm64.
+- Bump several devDependencies and runtime dependencies (e.g. @git.zone/tsbuild, @git.zone/tstest, @push.rocks/smartserve, @push.rocks/taskbuffer, ws, minimatch, etc.).
+- Update runtime message guiding local builds to use 'pnpm build' (tsrust) instead of direct cargo invocation.
+
 ## 2026-02-09 - 23.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(proxies/nftables-proxy)
 remove nftables-proxy implementation, models, and utilities from the repository
