 ## [15.0.0] (2026-05-29)
 
+`@commander-js/extra-typings` 15 is ESM only. This is expected to be seamless for ESM consumers, but some CommonJS consumers may hit issues with tooling requiring configuration for ESM-only dependencies. See Migration Tips below.
+
+The release of `@commander-js/extra-typings` 15 moves version 14 into maintenance. `@commander-js/extra-typings` 14 will get security updates for
+12 months (to May 2027). For more info see [Release Policy](./docs/release-policy.md).

+- now reexporting the global `program` singleton from Commander rather than creating a separate one
+
+### Migration Tips
+
+`@commander-js/extra-typings` 15 is ESM only, but this does not mean you need to migrate to ESM to use it. Importing ESM from CommonJS is
+supported by Node.js, and Bun, Deno, and TypeScript. Hopefully it Just Works for you! However, you may be using a different runtime or
+some other part of your setup that may not yet natively support importing ESM from CommonJS, such as your testing framework
+or bundler.
+
+If you have problems using `@commander-js/extra-typings` 15 in your environment, one option is stay on version 14 for now. `@commander-js/extra-typings` 14 will
+get security updates until May 2027 and things will hopefully improve for your setup in the meantime.
