 # Changelog
 
+## [7.0.0-rc](https://github.com/adcontextprotocol/adcp-client-python/compare/v6.6.0...v7.0.0-rc) (2026-07-29)
+
+
+### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES
+
+* **creative:** FormatId is removed from the normal root API in favor of LegacyFormatId and explicit legacy modules. BuildCreativeRequest/Response and PreviewCreativeRequest/Response variants are renamed to Legacy*; ADCPClient build_creative/preview_creative and list_creative_formats move to *_legacy methods. Product and creative filters no longer expose format_ids, and generic primary execution rejects legacy-only creative tasks.
