Note

Low Risk
OpenAPI-driven SDK release with backward-compatible optional params on profiles.download; existing one-argument callers remain valid.

Overview
Release 0.82.0 aligns the TypeScript SDK with OpenAPI changes for profile downloads and project naming.

Profile downloads: client.profiles.download now accepts an optional second argument (ProfileDownloadParams) with format?: 'tar.zst' | 'tar', sends it as query params, and uses Accept: application/octet-stream instead of a format-specific header. Docs describe default zstd tar archives for current profiles, JSON for legacy, and optional decompressed tar via format=tar.

Projects: JSDoc on create/update request types now states project names are limited to 1–255 Unicode code points (replacing “characters”).

Version bumps (0.81.0 → 0.82.0), changelog, OpenAPI stats, and a skipped test for download params round out the release.

Download options silently misrouted

High Severity

download changed from (idOrName, options?) to (idOrName, query?, options?). Existing two-argument calls that pass RequestOptions as the second argument now treat that object as query params, so timeout, signal, headers, and retries are ignored unless moved to the third argument. Typed RequestOptions values still type-check against ProfileDownloadParams, so this can fail silently at runtime.

generated profile download format support and format-neutral Accept header look correct.
