 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-03-30 - 1.13.0 - feat(client-registry)
+separate trusted server-defined client tags from client-reported tags with legacy tag compatibility
+
+- Adds distinct serverDefinedClientTags and clientDefinedClientTags fields to client registry and TypeScript interfaces.
+- Treats legacy tags values as serverDefinedClientTags during deserialization and server-side create/update flows for backward compatibility.
+- Clarifies that only server-defined tags are trusted for access control while client-defined tags are informational only.
+
 ## 2026-03-30 - 1.12.0 - feat(server)
 add optional PROXY protocol v2 headers for socket-based userspace NAT forwarding
