 # Changelog
 
+## 0.17.1 (2026-03-21)
+
+Full Changelog: [v0.17.0...v0.17.1](https://github.com/steel-dev/steel-python/compare/v0.17.0...v0.17.1)
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+* **deps:** bump minimum typing-extensions version ([3815a72](https://github.com/steel-dev/steel-python/commit/3815a72732d737d7403f91fbec741c95dd5f89d5))
+* **pydantic:** do not pass `by_alias` unless set ([f9686b4](https://github.com/steel-dev/steel-python/commit/f9686b47001a452f8591d9d65c7dd8c70dad5204))
+* sanitize endpoint path params ([abb806c](https://github.com/steel-dev/steel-python/commit/abb806c6ada0cb749bf734ada489eeff02738673))
+
+
+### Chores
+
+* **internal:** tweak CI branches ([35a8acc](https://github.com/steel-dev/steel-python/commit/35a8acc7fd278d27398979892a10832291f74e9d))
+* **tests:** bump steady to v0.19.4 ([fc582c4](https://github.com/steel-dev/steel-python/commit/fc582c4da1253d3851af25e753398ed6139cdac6))
+* **tests:** bump steady to v0.19.5 ([9927574](https://github.com/steel-dev/steel-python/commit/9927574b27a5d281732032176c9da052e7da5ea0))
+
+
+### Refactors
+
+* **tests:** switch from prism to steady ([791de4d](https://github.com/steel-dev/steel-python/commit/791de4d8baf003a3600e7e7a9422a36fc6729c12))
