-- **Dev-tooling dependency refresh ([#68](https://github.com/CLDMV/slothlet-vine/pull/68), [#70](https://github.com/CLDMV/slothlet-vine/pull/70))** — Updates to the lockfile only: `vitest` 5.0.3, `@cldmv/vitest-runner` 1.5.1, the jsonv lint/format packages, and the `ws` used by the WebSocket transport tests. No runtime source changed, and the peer ranges are the same as in v1.2.0 (`@cldmv/slothlet >=3.22.0`, optional `ws >=8.0.0`). It's a drop-in replacement for v1.2.0.

It produced no header changes here, so only `package.json` and the lockfile changed.

 ### Recent Releases
 
+- **v1.2.1** (October 2026) — dev-tooling dependency refresh in the lockfile only (`vitest` 5.0.3, `@cldmv/vitest-runner` 1.5.1, jsonv lint/format packages, `ws` for the transport tests); no runtime changes ([Changelog](https://github.com/CLDMV/slothlet-vine/blob/master/docs/changelog/v1/v1.2.1.md))
 - **v1.2.0** (October 2026) — channel principal: `serve({ principal })` judges every call and subscription as a transport-authenticated identity, plus a per-call `serve({ around })` wrapper; requires `@cldmv/slothlet >=3.22.0` ([Changelog](https://github.com/CLDMV/slothlet-vine/blob/master/docs/changelog/v1/v1.2.0.md))
 - **v1.1.3** (September 2026) — transports buffer frames that arrive before `grow()`/`serve()` registers a handler, so attaching after an `await` no longer loses the surface frame ([Changelog](https://github.com/CLDMV/slothlet-vine/blob/master/docs/changelog/v1/v1.1.3.md))
 - **v1.1.2** (September 2026) — `@cldmv/slothlet` peer floor raised to `>=3.20.0`; no runtime changes ([Changelog](https://github.com/CLDMV/slothlet-vine/blob/master/docs/changelog/v1/v1.1.2.md))
-- **v1.1.1** (September 2026) — CI-only: release-flow caller workflows synced to the current v4 templates ([Changelog](https://github.com/CLDMV/slothlet-vine/blob/master/docs/changelog/v1/v1.1.1.md))

+# Slothlet Vine v1.2.2 Changelog
+
+**Release Date**: October 2026
+**Release Type**: Patch
+**Branch**: `next` → `master`
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+A single dev-tooling dependency patch. `@cldmv/fix-headers`, which maintains the comment headers at the top of the repository's source, test and config files, moves from 2.1.1 to 2.1.4. No runtime source changed: the forwarding core, wire protocol, channel principal, `around`, event forwarding and every transport are exactly as in v1.2.1, and both peer ranges are unchanged (`@cldmv/slothlet >=3.22.0`, optional `ws >=8.0.0`).
+
+The bump was made with a header restamp in mind, but fix-headers 2.1.4 produced no header changes in this repository, so the only files touched are `package.json` and `package-lock.json`.
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 Dependencies
+
+- **`@cldmv/fix-headers` `2.1.1` → `2.1.4`** ([#72](https://github.com/CLDMV/slothlet-vine/pull/72)), dev dependency. The 2.1.x line no longer stamps a header into files that have no usable comment syntax (strict JSON such as `package.json`, and Markdown unless explicitly forced), never walks into `node_modules` or other dependency folders, and processes every repeated `--input` value instead of only the last. It only runs through the `fix:headers` script; nothing in the published package depends on it.
