+"@bigcommerce/catalyst-core": patch
+---
+
+Implement functional newsletter subscription feature with BigCommerce GraphQL API integration.
+
+## What Changed
+
+- Replaced the mock implementation in `subscribe.ts` with a real BigCommerce GraphQL API call using the `SubscribeToNewsletterMutation`.
+- Added comprehensive error handling for invalid emails, already-subscribed users, and unexpected errors.
+- Improved form error handling in `InlineEmailForm` to use `form.errors` instead of field-level errors for better error display.
+- Added comprehensive E2E tests and test fixtures for subscription functionality.
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+Replace the `subscribe` action in `core/components/subscribe/_actions/subscribe.ts` with the latest changes to include:
+- BigCommerce GraphQL mutation for newsletter subscription
+- Error handling for invalid emails, already-subscribed users, and unexpected errors
+- Proper error messages returned via Conform's `submission.reply()`
+
+Update `inline-email-form` to fix issue of not showing the error messages.
+**`core/vibes/soul/primitives/inline-email-form/index.tsx`**
+```tsx
+// Changed from: const { errors = [] } = fields.email;
+// Changed to: form.errors?.length
+// Changed from: errors.map(...)
+// Changed to: form.errors?.map(...)
+```
+
+Add the following translation keys to your locale files (e.g., `messages/en.json`):
+```json
+{
+  "Components": {
+    "Subscribe": {
+      "title": "Sign up for our newsletter",
+      "placeholder": "Enter your email",
+      "description": "Stay up to date with the latest news and offers from our store.",
+      "success": "You have been subscribed to our newsletter.",
+      "Errors": {
+        "subcriberAlreadyExists": "You are already subscribed to our newsletter.",
+        "invalidEmail": "Please enter a valid email address.",
+        "somethingWentWrong": "Something went wrong. Please try again later."
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
