Note

Medium Risk
Medium risk because it changes core request plumbing (default HTTP transport handling and debug logging) and expands request parameters (ProjectListParams.Query), which can affect client behavior across many calls.

Overview
Release v0.53.0 with API-surface updates and a few core client safety improvements.

Adds support for a generic MFA method-switch link by allowing "switch" as an MFA option/linked MFA type, and adds server-side project name searching via a new query parameter on GET /projects (including test coverage).

Hardens client internals: defaultHTTPClient() no longer panics when http.DefaultTransport is wrapped, WithDebugLog now redacts sensitive headers before dumping requests/responses, and internal encoder cache keys stop embedding reflect.Type to improve dead-code elimination. Docs/comments are updated to reflect project-scoped name uniqueness for several resources.
