Protocol
Sui Protocol Version in this release: 53
#18756: Enables the native randomness (random beacon) feature on Sui Mainnet.
CLI
#18706: Additional compiler errors for incomplete name access chains (such as some_pkg::some_module::) might appear in the compiler output.
#18607: Changed sui start to allow configurable hosts for indexer (--indexer-host ), GraphQL (--graphql-host ), and faucet (--faucet-host) services. This enables the use of sui start from a Docker container. By default, all services start with 0.0.0.0 host.
JSON-RPC
#18720: Bugfix for displaying PTBs where a pure input has been used multiple times.
#18712: Nodes (Validators and Full nodes): Bugfix for fetching package information over JSONRPC from fullnodes, where a package containing UTF8 string constants could fail to disassemble.
GRAPHQL
#18666: Output node estimation has been made more accurate -- the estimate should now track the theoretical max number of nodes on the JSON data output.
#18664: The service now detects unsupported directives on query variable definitions.
#18662: x-sui-rpc-version is no longer an accepted request header, as versions are now selected by modifying the path.
#18661: Passing an unsupported directive to the service is now treated as a BAD_USER_INPUT rather than an INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR.
#18486: Introduces an optional rootVersion parameter to Query.owner. This can be used to do versioned lookups when reading dynamic fields rooted on a wrapped object or another dynamic object field.
#18552: Introduces a new scalar -- UInt53 -- to represent unsigned 53 bit integer values. Some uses of Int in the existing schema have been replaced with UInt53. All clients need to register the new scalar, and clients for statically typed languages also need to use a wider (64 bit, for instance), unsigned type to hold the value.
