1.406.0

Minor Changes

  • #4194 d39b903 Thanks @dustinbyrne! - Move shared browser utility implementations into @posthog/browser-common and consume them directly from posthog-js. (2026-07-21)

Patch Changes

  • #4204 ba977d0 Thanks @turnipdabeets! - Keep autocapture off when a remote config response omits autocapture_opt_out. The SDK now retains the last known server value for the missing-field case, the same as when the config fetch fails, instead of enabling autocapture. Values persisted by earlier SDK versions are still trusted; a browser holding a stale value corrects itself on the first config response that includes the field. (2026-07-21)
