 ## [Unreleased]
 
+* Awaits cache-info persist in `putFile`, `putFileStream`, and downloads so the stored object has an id before those calls return
 * Modernizes GitHub Actions CI (combined quality job, pinned Flutter 3.44.4, Dependabot for actions)
 * Updates example Android project to AGP 9.0.1 / Gradle 9.1 / Kotlin 2.3.20
 * Migrates example Android app to built-in Kotlin
