 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.31.2] - 2026-06-18
+
+### Added
+
+- **`RowDequantSource` + `ops.gather` row-dequant path.** Adds `RowDequantSource` (a `TensorData` marker,
+  `dequantRow(rowIdx): FloatArray`) to `skainet-lang-core`, and teaches `DefaultCpuOps.gather` to use it:
+  when the gathered table implements `RowDequantSource`, only the rows actually touched are dequantised
+  (each unique row once, cached) instead of the generic element path — which calls `get()` (unsupported on
+  such tensors) and would otherwise force a full FP32 materialise of the table. The table declares logical
+  dtype `FP32`, so `gather` returns FP32 with no typing change. This lets a packed/oversized embedding (a
+  Q-quantised `token_embd`) stay packed and be looked up via `ops.gather` directly — generalising the
+  per-row-dequant trick out of the model layer. Adds `GatherRowDequantTest` (commonTest). (PR #741)
+

+## What's New in 0.31.2
+
+- **`RowDequantSource` + `ops.gather` row-dequant.** A `TensorData` can now mark itself `RowDequantSource`
+  (`dequantRow(rowIdx): FloatArray`); `ops.gather` then dequantises only the rows it touches instead of
+  materialising the whole table (and instead of the `get()` path, which such tensors don't support). The
+  table presents as logical FP32, so a packed/oversized embedding (a Q-quantised `token_embd`) can stay
+  packed and be looked up via `ops.gather` directly — moving the per-row-dequant trick out of model code
+  into the engine. (PR #741)
+
 ## What's New in 0.31.0
 
 - **`ops.transpose` lazily handles every packed matmul dtype.** The CPU backend rewraps packed bytes with a flipped shape (metadata-only "lazy transpose") so a packed weight survives `linearProject`'s `matmul(x, transpose(W))` instead of inflating to FP32 — but **Q8_0 and Q4_0** were missing and threw `Byte → Float ClassCastException`. Now the full dispatch set (Q4_K/Q5_K/Q6_K/Q5_0/Q5_1/Q8_0/Q4_0) transposes lazily, so a packed Q8_0/Q4_0 matmul weight (e.g. a tied Q8_0 `lm_head`) stays packed end-to-end on its NEON/SIMD kernel. Regression-tested across all seven packed types. (PRs #736, #737)

 Each cell is the best (highest-priority) provider that serves `Float32 × format` `matmul` on that platform: *native-ffm* (100) → *panama-vector* (50) → *scalar* (0). An empty cell (`—`) means no provider carries a kernel there (the format is dequant-to-FP32 only).
