 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.29.0] - 2026-06-17
+
+### Added
+
+- Added experimental `temporalio.workflow.signal_with_start_workflow`, backed by
+  generated system Nexus bindings for
+  `WorkflowService.SignalWithStartWorkflowExecution`.
+- Added OpenAI Agents plugin support for `CustomTool` dispatch, including lazy
+  tool discovery through `defer_loading`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Client connections now use gzip transport-level gRPC compression by default.
+  Pass `grpc_compression=GrpcCompression.NONE` to `Client.connect` or
+  `CloudOperationsClient.connect` to disable it.
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+- `StartWorkflowUpdateWithStartInput` now owns the authoritative
+  `rpc_metadata` and `rpc_timeout` fields for
+  `OutboundInterceptor.start_update_with_start_workflow`. These fields were
+  removed from the nested update-with-start input objects, so custom
+  interceptors that accessed them there should read or update the top-level
+  fields instead.
+
 ### Fixed
 
+- Fixed `breakpoint()` and `pdb.set_trace()` inside workflow code when a worker
+  runs with `debug_mode=True` or `TEMPORAL_DEBUG=1`; sandboxed workflows without
+  debug mode now get a clearer error pointing to `debug_mode=True`.
+- Fixed `start_update_with_start_workflow` interceptor handling so RPC metadata
+  and timeouts are forwarded to the underlying `execute_multi_operation` call.
+- Fixed OpenAI Agents plugin streamed event serialization when pydantic had not
+  yet built deferred schemas, and fixed terminal sandbox errors retrying
+  forever.
 - Removed the lazy-connect lock from the per-RPC hot path. It was previously
   acquired on every RPC, putting an event-loop-bound primitive on the hot path;
   it is now skipped once the client is connected. This reduces the client's
