Note

High Risk
Expands typed payment/checkout and browser card-fill flows plus config workload intent; performOperation's return type is a breaking TypeScript change for integrators.

Overview
Release 0.102.0 bumps package/version metadata and documents the feature set in CHANGELOG.md.

Vault item operations are the largest SDK surface change. client.vaults.items.performOperation now types as VaultItemOperationResponse (updated item for authorize/prepare_checkout, or a value-free FillVaultItemOperationResult for fill) instead of always returning VaultItem. Callers get discriminated params for authorize, prepare_checkout (Square AgentCard + VaultCheckoutContext), and fill (browser-bound card field injection via selectors). Related types cover checkout preparation lifecycle, fill field bindings/results, expanded AgentCard statuses, and relaxed delete rules when recovery had no authorization id.

Config registry requests can include an optional intent string on resolve flows; responses add optional guidance markdown and workload_outcome, and lookup typing aligns recommendations with RecommendationResult (including structured no-recommendation cases such as proxy restriction).

Managed auth ManagedAuthBrowserConfig gains optional region (us-east | eu-west | ap-southeast). Browser computer key-press docs now describe X11 punctuation combos (e.g. Ctrl+minus, alias Ctrl+-).

Tests and api.md exports mirror the new fields and operation variants.
