 ## Unreleased
 
+- Replaced all 28 uses of deprecated `tempfile.mktemp()` with atomic
+  `tempfile.mkstemp()` + `os.close(fd)` across 16 test and benchmark files.
+  Eliminates TOCTOU race conditions, prevents potential path collisions under
+  parallel test execution, and removes Python deprecation warnings.  All 10,640
+  BDD scenarios continue to pass under both sequential and parallel modes.  (#730)
 - Added TDD-style failing Behave BDD tests for the session list DI container
   missing `db` provider bug.  Three scenarios exercise `session list`,
   `_get_session_service()`, and `session list --format json` through the real
