+- [v18](/docs/releases/v18) — The line that carries ADR-0131, total organization ownership with no NULL `organization_id`; its breaking changes landed in stages through the `18.0.0-next.N` prereleases on npm's `next` tag, each with its own changeset and migration, and its GA release, 18.0.0, publishes to npm's `latest` tag and moves it from 17.x to 18 (current series: 18.0.0, released 2026-10-19).
 - [v17.0.0](/docs/releases/v17) — Files become owned `sys_file` records with server-enforced `accept`/`maxSize` and a governed download path, bulk export becomes its own opt-in privilege, the SDK is reconciled against the routes the server actually mounts (21 dead methods out, 40+ real ones in), approval nodes route approvers dynamically via CEL expressions and decision outputs, a datasource that cannot connect fails the boot, and Node 22 becomes the supported floor; 17.1 adds partial field masking, record-view auditing on `sys_audit_log`, and a per-object read-only approval visibility tier — and makes a deactivated permission set or position actually stop granting access, withdraws the bulk-export wildcard from the shipped admin sets, and gives all three flow doors one honest HTTP status table; 17.2 tightens by-id `update`/`delete` against a silently-dropped `where` predicate or a mismatched id, retires `sys_position.permissions` and other dead ADR-0049 surfaces, and stops analytics from answering the wrong number on a cross-object filter (current series: 17.7.0, released 2026-10-06).
 - [v16.0.0](/docs/releases/v16) — One org identifier (`organizationId`) across hooks and actions, quorum + per-group sign-off (会签) approvals with metadata-declared decision actions, time-relative automations, filtered roll-ups, strict dashboard widgets, an identity-scoped MCP stdio transport, and a platform-wide enforce-or-remove sweep that makes dead metadata loud; 16.1 adds a `requires` capability-provider preflight, two more dashboard build gates, and `runAs:'user'` automations that run with the triggering user's real grants (final release: 16.1.0).
 - [v15.0.0](/docs/releases/v15) — Explain record access layer by layer, a docked AI workspace in the Console, project-ready Gantt charts, and phone sign-in; 15.1 adds permission-following attachments, no-code third-party connectors, dashboard-wide filters, pinyin search, and whole-record inline editing — with materially safer multi-tenant and write-path defaults (final release: 15.1.1).

 **The v18 line** exists for one decision whose changes do not fit in a 17.x
 minor: [ADR-0131](https://github.com/objectstack-ai/objectstack/blob/main/docs/adr/0131-total-organization-ownership-no-null-organization-id.md),
 organization ownership is total — no NULL `organization_id`; declared metadata
 stays in code; a row exists only when an organization authored it. Its changes
 reshape stored data and narrow what the runtime accepts, so the ADR stages them
 in one major (its D14) instead of spreading them across 17.x minors. While the
-line is open, every other breaking change that lands on `main` ships on it too,
