Note

Low Risk
Additive SDK typings and enum values from OpenAPI; no client runtime logic changes in this repo.

Overview
Release 0.97.0 bumps the package version and changelog; functional changes are additive TypeScript types aligned with the public API.

Browser telemetry (captcha) adds typed events for the full captcha lifecycle: captcha_solve_started (solver accepted a task), captcha_challenge_result (one terminal outcome per visible challenge), and richer captcha_solve_result payloads. Shared challenge_id and task_id fields correlate tasks within a challenge; captcha_type now includes press_and_hold. Docs clarify that challenge-level vs task-level outcomes can disagree (e.g. solve success with challenge abandoned).

Managed auth connections extend can_reauth_reason with totp_reauth_allowed and tighten documentation for requirements_satisfiable (no recognized blocker vs prior wording about meeting requirements).
