+## 4.2.0 — 2026-05-11
+
+### Added
+
+- `BidsWebAccessor` — a new browser-compatible BIDS file accessor that reads
+  dataset files from browser `File` objects provided via an
+  `<input webkitdirectory>` element or drag-and-drop upload. Schema loading is
+  performed via remote HTTPS fetching. This enables in-browser BIDS/HED
+  validation without a server. ([#718])
+
+- Tests for `BidsWebAccessor` covering core accessor behavior. ([#718])
+
+- The main package is now fully browser-friendly via its ESM build
+  (`dist/esm/index.js`). The `exports` map exposes both `browser` and
+  `import` conditions pointing to the ESM bundle. ([#719])
+
+### Changed
+
+- The browser UI application (`browser/`) has been removed from this package
+  and moved to a dedicated repository:
+  [hed-standard/hed-web](https://github.com/hed-standard/hed-web). ([#721])
+
+- CI GitHub Actions: the `deploy-pages` workflow now deploys documentation
+  only; browser app build steps have been removed. ([#720])
+
+- Bundling refactored for better ESM/browser compatibility (stage 1). ([#719])
+
+- `ts-jest` removed from dev dependencies; TypeScript upgraded to 6.0.2, then
+  6.0.3. ([#697])
+
+- `tsconfig.json` handling revised to address TypeScript 6.x deprecations. ([#692])
+
+- README updated to reflect separation of browser interface into `hed-web`. ([#721])
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Picomatch security vulnerability addressed. ([#692])
+
+- CI workflow permissions tightened to reduce attack surface. ([#692])
+
+### Dependencies
+
+- `fast-xml-parser` updated through 5.5.8 → 5.7.2
+- `eslint` updated through 10.1.0 → 10.3.0
+- `@babel/preset-env` updated 7.29.0 → 7.29.3

+- `globals` updated 17.4.0 → 17.6.0
+- `prettier` updated 3.8.1 → 3.8.3
+- `typedoc` updated 0.28.18 → 0.28.19
+- `@types/node` updated 25.5.0 → 25.6.0
+- `typescript` updated 6.0.2 → 6.0.3
+- `actions/deploy-pages` updated 4 → 5
+- `actions/upload-pages-artifact` updated 4 → 5
