 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-03-17 - 4.8.16 - fix(release)
+bump package version to 4.8.15
+
+- Updates the package.json version field from 4.8.13 to 4.8.15.
+
+## 2026-03-17 - 4.8.13 - fix(remoteingress-protocol)
+require a flush after each written frame to bound TLS buffer growth
+
+- Remove the unflushed byte threshold and stop queueing additional writes while a flush is pending
+- Simplify write and flush error logging after dropping unflushed byte tracking
+- Update tunnel I/O comments to reflect the stricter flush behavior that avoids OOM and connection resets
+
 ## 2026-03-17 - 4.8.12 - fix(tunnel)
 prevent tunnel backpressure buffering from exhausting memory and cancel stream handlers before TLS shutdown
