 Changelog
 ---------
 
+23.1.0 (2026-09-06)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Added
+^^^^^
+
+* Added :class:`~isaaclab.envs.mdp.actions.FixedTendonPositionAction`, an action term that commands
+  an articulation's fixed tendons. Tendons have their own index space, so a joint action term cannot
+  reach them; pair the two terms to cover a robot whose motors drive both.
+
+* Added :meth:`~isaaclab.assets.articulation.BaseArticulation.set_fixed_tendon_position_target_index`,
+  so a tendon position target can be commanded without the caller knowing which physics engine is
+  running.
+
+Fixed
+^^^^^
+
+* Fixed :class:`~isaaclab.devices.Se2SpaceMouse` and :class:`~isaaclab.devices.Se3SpaceMouse` failing with
+  ``No device found by SpaceMouse`` when a supported 3Dconnexion device was connected. Detection matched the
+  HID product string exactly, which the ``libusb`` backend bundled in the ``hidapi`` wheels leaves empty
+  unless the process may open the USB node. Directly attached devices are now matched by their USB vendor
+  and product ids, with the product string kept as a fallback, and the errors raised when a device cannot be
+  found or opened name the enumerated devices and the required permissions.
+* Fixed SpaceMouse discovery giving up when the first supported device could not be opened. Discovery now
+  continues to the remaining devices and only reports the open failures if none of them could be opened.
+* Added the USB identifier of the 3Dconnexion SpaceNavigator, so the device added in :github:`7544` is also
+  detected when the HID backend cannot read its product string.
+* Fixed the ``us`` Asset Region Profile and all shipped Kit experiences to share the production asset root.
+* Restored :class:`~isaaclab.envs.LeappDeploymentEnv` as a public ``isaaclab.envs`` export.

 Changelog
 ---------
 
+0.8.0 (2026-09-06)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Added
+^^^^^
+
+* Added ``JOINT_NAMES``, ``TENDON_NAMES``,
+  ``TENDON_POSITION_LIMITS`` and ``FINGERTIP_NAMES`` to
+  :mod:`~isaaclab_assets.robots.shadow_hand`, so a task can name the hand's sixteen joint-driving
+  motors, its four tendon-driving motors and their commandable range without restating them.
+  ``SHADOW_HAND_PHYSX_CFG`` and ``SHADOW_HAND_NEWTON_CFG`` select the PhysX and Newton variants.
+
+Changed
+^^^^^^^
+
+* Changed the Shadow Hand configurations to spawn one asset and select the physics engine through
+  its ``Physics`` USD variant, replacing the two separate PhysX and Newton assets whose joints were
+  named differently. Both engines now spawn the hand at the same orientation; the previous assets
+  needed two, because one baked a root orientation that the other did not.
+
+* Changed ``SHADOW_HAND_CFG`` to spawn the asset with its default ``Physics`` variant. Use
+  ``SHADOW_HAND_PHYSX_CFG`` or ``SHADOW_HAND_NEWTON_CFG`` to select an engine explicitly.
+
+Removed
+^^^^^^^
+
+* Removed ``SHADOW_ACTUATED_JOINT_NAMES``; use ``JOINT_NAMES`` for the sixteen joint-driving
+  motors and ``TENDON_NAMES`` for the four tendon-driving ones. The removed list named all twenty
+  motors, so code that fed it to ``find_joints`` was asking for four joints that do not exist.
+
+* Removed ``SHADOW_FINGERTIP_BODY_NAMES``; use ``FINGERTIP_NAMES``.
+
+Fixed
+^^^^^
+
+* Fixed the Shadow Hand asset applying an articulation-root schema to two prims, which made any
+  consumer that resolves the root by search fail with ``Expected 1 prims ... found 2`` once the
+  asset was loaded in Kit. ``JointWrenchSensor`` hit this on every backend, so the manager-based
+  reorientation environment could not start. The second schema carried one attribute, the Newton
+  self-collision flag, which the configuration already supplies for both engines; removing both
+  leaves a single articulation root.
+
+* Removed configuration that restated the asset or its defaults: the joint drive type, which the
+  asset authors on every joint, and ``soft_joint_pos_limit_factor`` and
+  ``activate_contact_sensors``, which repeated their defaults. What remains differs between the two
+  variants only in the selected USD variant and the PhysX solver settings, which Newton ignores.
