+## Chef Workstation 26.1.0
+
+Release date: July 8, 2026
+
+### Packaging
+
+We added OS-native packages alongside the existing Habitat packages. You can download packages from the Chef customer download portal or the download API.
+
+The following native packages are available:
+
+- Linux x86: RPM (.rpm) and DEB (.deb) packages
+- Windows x86: MSI installer (.msi)
+
+OS-native packages for Linux ARM and macOS aren't available in this release.
+We plan to add Linux ARM and macOS OS-native packages in upcoming releases.
+
+### Bug fixes
+
+- Fixed Chef Test Kitchen Enterprise warnings during `kitchen verify` that occurred due to unresolved or ambiguous gem specifications when multiple versions of gems (such as `reline`, `minitest`, and `drb`) were installed in the environment.
+- Fixed a `knife search` command issue where queries containing spaces were incorrectly parsed due to unquoted argument expansion in the Habitat knife wrapper.
+- Fixed Cookstyle inline `# cookstyle:disable` directives being ignored after the RuboCop engine upgrade. Directive comments are now parsed correctly regardless of whether the raw source contains the literal string `rubocop`.
