 - Fix `buf dep graph --format json` silently dropping dependencies when a dependency was already seen.
 - Add support for `--rbs_out` as a `protoc_builtin` plugin (requires protoc v34.0+).
 - Add relevant links from CEL LSP hover documentation to either <celbyexample.com> or <protovalidate.com>
+- Add shell completions for `buf curl`: `--protocol` and `--reflect-protocol` flag values, and URL
+  path completion (service and method names) via server reflection, `--schema`, or the local buf module.
 - Add OpenBSD and FreeBSD release binaries for amd64 and arm64.
 - Skip writing unchanged output files in `buf generate` to preserve modification times
