Python SDK workflows now speak the same wire format as TypeScript, eliminating serialization friction across the stack while the workflow engine ships inline step execution and WASM caching.

The vercel-py SDK achieved full payload interoperability with @workflow/core [1], replacing JSON serialization with devalue format so a Python workflow reads identically to one the TypeScript SDK started. This is a breaking change: workflows now take keyword arguments only and wire format shifts from `b"json"` to `b"devl"` [2]. Meanwhile, the workflow engine shipped QuickJS VM inline step execution [3], keeping the suspended WASM engine alive per invocation and dispatching durable side effects for each suspension, cutting latency by eliminating cold starts. The engine also now carries Hook retention deadlines across the QuickJS boundary [4] and requires `runId` on correlation ID lookups [5], tightening semantic guarantees. Across vercel/flags, a coordinated 6-release wave renamed Edge Config to Global Config throughout the SDK adapter ecosystem [6] [7], updating Statsig, Reflag, PostHog, and LaunchDarkly integrations. On the Next.js front, Turbopack fixed a production-only runtime emission bug where async-module machinery could be stripped from shared chunks [8], and addressed worker thread cleanup to prevent orphaned plugin isolates from blocking garbage collection [9]. The AI SDK fixed tool history validation that was rejecting valid follow-up messages after aborted tools [10], added FLUX 3 video model support to Black Forest Labs [11], and corrected streaming tool call handling for gateways that emit sparse or reused indexes [12].
