The format follows Keep a Changelog. Versions use semantic versioning with prerelease tags.

[v0.4.15] - 2026-02-14

Fixed

• Fixed the editor Highlight Current Line behavior on macOS so previous line background highlights are cleared and only the active line remains highlighted.

[v0.4.14] - 2026-02-14

Added

• Added centralized theme canonicalization with an explicit Custom option in settings so legacy/case-variant values resolve consistently across launches.
• Added a fallback GitHub Releases URL path in the updater dialog so View Releases always opens, even when no latest-release payload is cached.
• Added keychain-state restore/cleanup steps to notarized release workflows (and workflow templates) to prevent user keychain list/default/login mutations after signing jobs.

Improved

• Improved macOS translucent-window rendering by enforcing unified toolbar style and full-size content behavior when translucency is enabled.
• Improved cross-platform theme application so iOS/macOS editor text + syntax colors respect the selected settings theme in both translucent and non-translucent modes.
• Improved iOS settings/action tint parity to use blue accent coloring consistent with macOS.

Fixed

• Fixed updater release-source validation regression that could block manual update checks in local/Xcode runs.
• Fixed toolbar/titlebar visual mismatch where toolbar areas rendered too opaque/white when translucency was enabled.
• Fixed settings theme-selection drift by normalizing persisted theme values and applying canonical names on read/write.

[v0.4.13] - 2026-02-14

Added

• Added scripts/run_selfhosted_notarized_release.sh helper to trigger/watch the self-hosted notarized release workflow and verify uploaded assets.

Improved

• Hardened updater repository-source validation to accept both github.com/{owner}/{repo} and GitHub REST API paths (api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}).
• Improved updater behavior in local Xcode/DerivedData runs by disabling automatic install/relaunch in development runtime.

Fixed

• Fixed update dialog failures caused by over-strict GitHub release-source path validation.
• Fixed startup reliability by removing eager Keychain token reads/migration on launch paths and treating missing-keychain datastore statuses as non-fatal token-missing cases.
• Fixed local debug key handling by using UserDefaults fallback in DEBUG builds to avoid blocking SecItemCopyMatching behavior during local runs.

[v0.4.12] - 2026-02-14

Added

• scripts/release_all.sh now accepts notarized as a positional alias, so scripts/release_all.sh v0.4.12 notarized works directly.

Improved

• Hosted notarized release workflow now enforces Xcode 17+ to preserve the Tahoe light/dark AppIcon.icon pipeline.
• Release asset verification now runs in strict iconstack mode to ensure published assets contain AppIcon.iconstack.

Fixed

• Removed Xcode 16 fallback icon-copy path that could produce Sequoia/non-light-dark icon payloads in release assets.

[v0.4.11] - 2026-02-13

Added

• ExpressionEngine language support in the editor language set.
• Plain text drag-and-drop support so dropped string content opens correctly in the editor.

Improved

• Release/docs metadata with TestFlight beta link surfaced in project documentation and download guidance.
• Release pipeline compatibility for hosted environments with Xcode 16 fallback handling.

Fixed

• Notarized release publishing now hard-fails when icon payload validation fails, preventing bad assets from being published.
• macOS Settings sizing now enforces a taller default window to avoid clipped controls.

[v0.4.10] - 2026-02-13

Added

• Release gate in scripts/release_all.sh now waits for a successful Pre-release CI run on the pushed commit before triggering notarization.

Improved

• Hosted notarized workflow now allows an explicit Xcode 16+ fallback path when Xcode 17 is unavailable on GitHub-hosted runners.
• Settings window responsiveness on macOS by deferring/caching editor font list loading.

Fixed

• Reduced settings-open latency by removing forced full-window redraw calls during appearance application.

[v0.4.9] - 2026-02-13

Added

• Pre-release CI workflow on main/PR with critical runtime checks, docs validation, and icon payload verification.
• Release dry-run workflow and local scripts/release_dry_run.sh command for pre-tag validation.
• Release runtime policy test suite (ReleaseRuntimePolicyTests) covering settings-tab routing, theme mapping, find-next cursor behavior, and subscription button state logic.

Improved

• Unified release automation in scripts/release_all.sh to run preflight checks before tagging and to verify uploaded release assets after notarized publish.
• README changelog summary automation now keeps release summaries version-sorted and limited to the latest three entries.
• Notarized workflows now include compatibility fallbacks so older tags without scripts/ci/* can still be rebuilt and published.

Fixed

• Fixed macOS toolbar Settings (gear) button path to open the Settings scene reliably via SwiftUI openSettings.
• Hardened release workflows with post-publish verification and rollback behavior (delete bad asset and mark release draft on verification failure).

[v0.4.8] - 2026-02-12

Added

• Extended release automation coverage for the next tag cycle, including synchronized README/changelog/welcome-tour release content updates.

Improved

• macOS settings parity with iOS by wiring the Open in Tabs preference into live window tabbing behavior.
• Welcome Tour release highlights are now aligned with distribution content for current App Store/TestFlight-facing builds.

Fixed

• Release workflow environment compatibility by removing hard rg dependency from docs validation steps.
• Release pipeline guard failures caused by placeholder release notes (TODO) in the tag section.

[v0.4.7] - 2026-02-12

Added

• Indentation-based scope detection fallback for Python/YAML to render scoped-region and guide markers when bracket-only matching is not sufficient.
• Release workflow compatibility fallback for doc validation (grep-based checks), so release jobs no longer depend on rg being preinstalled on runners.

Improved

• Scope/bracket highlighting stability by dropping stale asynchronous highlight passes and applying only the latest generation.
• Visibility of matched bracket tokens and scope guide markers for easier detection on iOS and macOS.

Fixed

• Settings window opening/persistence path now uses the native Settings scene behavior, avoiding custom frame persistence conflicts.
• iOS appearance override handling for light/dark/system now applies consistently across app windows/scenes.

[v0.4.6] - 2026-02-12

Added

• Self-hosted notarized release workflow for macOS (release-notarized-selfhosted.yml) targeting macOS runners with Xcode 17+.
• Automated icon payload preflight in notarized release pipelines to block publishing assets with missing AppIcon renditions.
• Release automation wiring so scripts/release_all.sh --notarized triggers the self-hosted notarized workflow.

Improved

• Release tooling robustness in release_all.sh / release_prep.sh for optional arguments and end-to-end docs flow.
• Welcome Tour release page automation now derives the first card from the selected changelog section during release prep.
• Notarized workflow now validates toolchain requirements for icon-composer-based app icon assets.

Fixed

• Support purchase testing bypass is now hidden in distributed release builds (kept only for debug/simulator testing paths).
• Replaced deprecated receipt URL usage in support purchase gating with StoreKit transaction environment checks.
• Restored release icon source mapping to AppIcon.icon (dark/light icon pipeline) instead of using the fallback iOS icon set in release builds.

[v0.4.5] - 2026-02-11

Added

• Optional support purchase flow (StoreKit 2) with a dedicated Settings -> Support tab.
• Local StoreKit testing file (SupportOptional.storekit) and App Store review notes (docs/AppStoreReviewNotes.md).
• New cross-platform theme settings panel and iOS app icon asset catalog set.

Improved

• Settings architecture cleanup: editor options consolidated into Settings dialog/sheet and aligned with toolbar actions.
• Language detection and syntax highlighting stability for newly opened tabs and ongoing edits.
• Sequoia/Tahoe compatibility guards and cross-platform settings presentation behavior.
• Consolidated macOS app icon source to a single Resources/AppIcon.icon catalog (removed duplicate Assets.xcassets/AppIcon.icon).

Fixed

• iOS build break caused by missing settings sheet state binding in ContentView.
• Find panel behavior (Cmd+F, initial focus, Enter-to-find-next) and highlight-current-line setting application.
• Line number ruler rendering overlap/flicker issues from previous fragment enumeration logic.
• Editor text sanitization paths around paste/tab/open flows to reduce injected visible whitespace glyph artifacts.
• Prevented reintroduced whitespace/control glyph artifacts (U+2581, U+2400–U+243F) during typing/paste by hardening sanitizer checks in editor update paths.
• macOS line-number gutter redraw/background mismatch so the ruler keeps the same window/editor tone without white striping.

[v0.4.4-beta] - 2026-02-09

Added

• Inline code completion ghost text with Tab-to-accept behavior.
• Starter templates for all languages and a toolbar insert button.

• Release Assistant helper app plus scripted workflow for uploading v0.4.4-beta.

Improved

• Language detection coverage and heuristics, including C and C# recognition.
• Toolbar Map card in the welcome tour now wraps the button grid inside a taller inner frame to keep the cards inside the border.

• Language picker/menu entries for vim, log, and ipynb across toolbar and app command menus.

Improved

• Extension and dotfile language detection for .vim, .log, .ipynb, and .vimrc.
• Header-file default mapping by treating .h as cpp for more practical C/C++ highlighting.

Fixed
