-# [1.2x.x] (unreleased) - 2025-mm-dd
+# [1.28.0](https://crates.io/crates/apollo-compiler/1.28.0) - 2025-04-24
+
+## Features
+
+- **Reject `@skip`/`@include` on subscription root fields - [dariuszkuc] [SimonSapin] and [goto-bus-stop], [pull/963]**
+
+  This implements a [GraphQL spec RFC](https://github.com/graphql/graphql-spec/pull/860), rejecting
+  subscriptions in validation that can be invalid during execution.
+
+- **New shorthand methods for mutable directive argument access - [tninesling], [pull/967]**
+
+  Introduces new methods:
+  - `DirectiveList::get_all_mut`
+  - `DirectiveList::argument_by_name_mut`
+  - `DirectiveList::specified_argument_by_name_mut`
+
 ## Fixes
 
 - **Update `ariadne` trait implementations - [lrlna], [pull/960]**
-`ariadne@0.5.1` release changed their type signature for `ariadne::Cache` trait, which required an update to `apollo-compiler`'s implementation of `ariadne::Cache<FileId>`. 
 
-This release also had a slight change to path formatting, so if you had any snapshots in your tests, you can expect a change from this:
-```
-Error: `typeFragment1` contains too much nesting
-    ╭─[overflow.graphql:11:11]
-```

+- **Harden stack overflow protection - [goto-bus-stop], [pull/966]**
+
+  Closes a theoretical gap in stack overflow protection when processing long fragment chains, and
+  significantly improves validation performance on documents with thousands of fragment definitions.
