4.15.0rc1

• Add the @typing_extensions.disjoint_base decorator, as specified
  in PEP 800. Patch by Jelle Zijlstra.
• Add typing_extensions.type_repr, a backport of
  annotationlib.type_repr,
  introduced in Python 3.14 (CPython PR #124551,
  originally by Jelle Zijlstra). Patch by Semyon Moroz.
• Fix behavior of type params in typing_extensions.evaluate_forward_ref. Backport of
  CPython PR #137227 by Jelle Zijlstra.

4.14.1

Release 4.14.1 (July 4, 2025)

• Fix usage of typing_extensions.TypedDict nested inside other types
  (e.g., typing.Type[typing_extensions.TypedDict]). This is not allowed by the
  type system but worked on older versions, so we maintain support.

4.14.0

This release adds several new features, including experimental support for inline typed dictionaries (PEP 764) and sentinels (PEP 661), and support for changes in Python 3.14. In addition, Python 3.8 is no longer supported.

Changes since 4.14.0rc1:

• Remove __or__ and __ror__ methods from typing_extensions.Sentinel
  on Python versions <3.10. PEP 604 was introduced in Python 3.10, and
  typing_extensions does not generally attempt to backport PEP-604 methods
  to prior versions.
• Further update typing_extensions.evaluate_forward_ref with changes in Python 3.14.

Changes included in 4.14.0rc1:

• Drop support for Python 3.8 (including PyPy-3.8). Patch by Victorien Plot.
• Do not attempt to re-export names that have been removed from typing,
  anticipating the removal of typing.no_type_check_decorator in Python 3.15.
  Patch by Jelle Zijlstra.
• Update typing_extensions.Format, typing_extensions.evaluate_forward_ref, and
  typing_extensions.TypedDict to align
  with changes in Python 3.14. Patches by Jelle Zijlstra.
• Fix tests for Python 3.14 and 3.15. Patches by Jelle Zijlstra.

New features:

• Add support for inline typed dictionaries (PEP 764).
  Patch by Victorien Plot.
• Add typing_extensions.Reader and typing_extensions.Writer. Patch by
  Sebastian Rittau.
• Add support for sentinels (PEP 661). Patch by
  Victorien Plot.

  to avoid having user arguments shadowed in generated __new__ by

4.13.1

This is a bugfix release fixing two edge cases that appear on old bugfix releases of CPython.

Bugfixes:

• Fix regression in 4.13.0 on Python 3.10.2 causing a TypeError when using Concatenate.
  Patch by Daraan.
• Fix TypeError when using evaluate_forward_ref on Python 3.10.1-2 and 3.9.8-10.
  Patch by Daraan.

4.13.0

New features:

• Add typing_extensions.TypeForm from PEP 747. Patch by
  Jelle Zijlstra.
• Add typing_extensions.get_annotations, a backport of
  inspect.get_annotations that adds features specified
  by PEP 649. Patches by Jelle Zijlstra and Alex Waygood.
• Backport evaluate_forward_ref from CPython PR
  #119891 to evaluate ForwardRefs.
  Patch by Daraan, backporting a CPython PR by Jelle Zijlstra.

Bugfixes and changed features:

• Update PEP 728 implementation to a newer version of the PEP. Patch by Jelle Zijlstra.
• Copy the coroutine status of functions and methods wrapped
  with @typing_extensions.deprecated. Patch by Sebastian Rittau.
• Fix bug where TypeAliasType instances could be subscripted even
  where they were not generic. Patch by Daraan.
• Fix bug where a subscripted TypeAliasType instance did not have all
  attributes of the original TypeAliasType instance on older Python versions.
  Patch by Daraan and Alex Waygood.
• Fix bug where subscripted TypeAliasType instances (and some other
  subscripted objects) had wrong parameters if they were directly
  subscripted with an Unpack object.
  Patch by Daraan.
• Backport to Python 3.10 the ability to substitute ... in generic Callable
  aliases that have a Concatenate special form as their argument.
  Patch by Daraan.
• Extended the Concatenate backport for Python 3.8-3.10 to now accept
  Ellipsis as an argument. Patch by Daraan.
• Fix backport of get_type_hints to reflect Python 3.11+ behavior which does not add
  Union[..., NoneType] to annotations that have a None default value anymore.
  This fixes wrapping of Annotated in an unwanted Optional in such cases.
  Patch by Daraan.
• Fix error in subscription of Unpack aliases causing nested Unpacks
  to not be resolved correctly. Patch by Daraan.
• Backport CPython PR #124795:
  fix TypeAliasType not raising an error on non-tuple inputs for type_params.
  Patch by Daraan.
• Fix that lists and ... could not be used for parameter expressions for TypeAliasType
  instances before Python 3.11.
  Patch by Daraan.
• Fix error on Python 3.10 when using typing.Concatenate and
  typing_extensions.Concatenate together. Patch by Daraan.
• Backport of CPython PR #109544
  to reflect Python 3.13+ behavior: A value assigned to __total__ in the class body of a
  TypedDict will be overwritten by the total argument of the TypedDict constructor.
  Patch by Daraan, backporting a CPython PR by Jelle Zijlstra.
• isinstance(typing_extensions.Unpack[...], TypeVar) now evaluates to False on Python 3.11
  and newer, but remains True on versions before 3.11.
  Patch by Daraan.
