 # Changelog
 
+## 1.5.0
+
+### Minor Changes
+
+- 532a6d8: Add `--shadow-overlay`, the elevation step above `--shadow-dropdown` for a surface that covers the page rather than sitting beside it — a drawer, a modal, a floating dock.
+
+  It is derived from `--hsl-foreground` rather than a fixed `rgba`, so it inverts with the theme: dark ink in light, a soft halo in dark. That is what makes it work on a dark canvas, where a black shadow renders as nothing. One declaration serves both themes, and the token is declared in the `@theme` block as well so Tailwind emits a `shadow-overlay` utility.
+
 ## 1.4.0
