+# Compatibility and API changes
+
+Changes that can make a previously accepted setup or call behave differently.
+Each entry names the commit, the affected entry points and the observable result.
+
+## 87c3a31: cut-link ownership is validated for every body
+
+`validate_cut_link_ownership` (`body/preprocess/flag_overlay.py`) now runs for
+passive bodies as well as Jet/aperture bodies. Every cut link must have an
+active fluid receiver (FLUID set, SOLID clear), and each `(receiver, direction)`
+population may have only one writer.
+
+Rejected with `ValueError`, before flags, populations or device buffers change:
+
+1. Overlapping or touching passive solids whose cut links write the same
+   population ("Boundary requires unique cut-link writers").
+2. A body whose cut-link receiver is a non-fluid cell, e.g. a channel wall row
+   or the inlet/outlet column ("Cut links must have active fluid receivers").
+
+Both were previously accepted silently for passive bodies; the interpolated
+boundary then had undefined results. The check runs in
+`Simulation.initialize`, runtime body sync (`sync_bodies`) and checkpoint load
+(`common/checkpoint.py`). A checkpoint whose saved geometry violates either rule
+no longer restores; rebuild the geometry with separated bodies.
+
+## 87c3a31: `Simulation.read_surface_exchange` accepts Jet-driven bodies
+
+`read_surface_exchange(id)` previously required `SurfaceActuation` on the body.
+It now also accepts bodies that own Jet aperture links, including Jets with zero
+or negative amplitude. Bodies without any aperture still raise
+`ValueError("Body has no surface actuation")`. The value is unchanged: the latest
+step's wall/aperture exchange, not total nozzle force.
