Full Release Notes

## Bug Fixes

- **Autocomplete**: `--trigger-width` CSS variable on the popover now tracks the trigger element's width via `useResizeObserver` ([#6374](https://github.com/heroui-inc/heroui/pull/6374))
- **Drawer**: Panel transitions rewritten from Tailwind `animate-in`/`animate-out` to native CSS `translate` transitions for smoother animations ([#6393](https://github.com/heroui-inc/heroui/pull/6393))
- **InputGroup**: Secondary variant focus background triggers only on actual input/textarea focus ([#6362](https://github.com/heroui-inc/heroui/pull/6362))
- **Tag**: `CloseButton` now has explicit `aria-label="Remove tag"` for screen readers ([#6341](https://github.com/heroui-inc/heroui/pull/6341))

## Features

- **`--backdrop` theme variable**: New CSS variable for overlay backdrops — Modal, AlertDialog, Drawer now use `bg-backdrop` instead of hardcoded values ([#6375](https://github.com/heroui-inc/heroui/pull/6375))

## Style Improvements

- Trigger elements across Popover, Tooltip, Dropdown, Modal, AlertDialog, Drawer, Disclosure now apply `inline-block` ([#6373](https://github.com/heroui-inc/heroui/pull/6373))

- Tag `sm` and `md` sizes get increased horizontal padding ([#6315](https://github.com/heroui-inc/heroui/pull/6315))

## Internal
