+## [1.1.1] - 2025-11-15
+### Changed
+- Evaluate `__can__` guards before business expressions when merging into `v-if` / `v-else-if` branches to keep short-circuit order predictable.
+
 ## [1.1.0] - 2025-11-15
 ### Added
 - Automatically mirror `v-can` guards across `v-else-if` / `v-else` branches and surface the inferred expression in documentation and fixtures.

 ### 🚀 Phase 4 — Transformation des nœuds `v-can`
 - Convertir l’expression en chemin `['segment1','segment2',…]`.
 - Chercher un `v-if` existant :
-  - `v-if="expr"` → `v-if="(expr) && __can__(path)"`.
+  - `v-if="expr"` → `v-if="__can__(path) && (expr)"`.
   - Sans `v-if` → ajouter `v-if="__can__(path)"`.
 - Interdire `v-can` sur des éléments possédant déjà `v-else` / `v-else-if` (lever une erreur compilateur).
