# Changelog

## 0.9.0 - 2026-07-27

- replaced Git-checkout-only discovery with a complete Unraid workload inventory, including stopped, Compose, DockerMan and standalone containers;
- added persistent manual workload linking with repository, deployment mode, Compose project, files and service identity;
- made checksum-verified exact-commit push bundles the default for new SSH/Unraid profiles, so Unraid no longer needs a Gitea key;
- separated desktop-to-Unraid authentication, Docker/Compose capabilities and optional Unraid-to-Gitea access in diagnostics;
- preserved adopted DockerMan templates and disabled aggressive recreate/orphan flags by default;
- promoted deployment state only after Compose validation and service verification, with atomic manifests, rollback restoration and live lock ownership;
- retained server-side Git and monitor-only modes for explicit use cases.

## 0.8.9 - 2026-07-26

- added a per-repository Git Validator with a weighted assurance score and evidence-backed checks;
- validates Gitea branch governance, repository identity, upstream tracking, effective author identity, safe synchronization defaults, README and gitignore hygiene, tracked secret-shaped files and oversized files;
- provides audited one-click repairs for origin alignment and repository-local safety configuration;
- offers confirmed repairs for default-branch protection and a reviewable uncommitted `.gitignore`;
- introduced a premium, theme-aware and container-responsive Validator workspace with safe-fix batching.

## 0.8.8 - 2026-07-26

- fixed binary update downloads on Gitea servers that require release-scoped attachment routes;
- sends both the immutable release ID and attachment ID when downloading update assets;
- preserves strict same-origin token handling and SHA-256 verification.

## 0.8.7 - 2026-07-26

- automatically inventories running workloads across configured Unraid servers;
- links server Git checkouts to Gitea repositories through exact normalized origins and strong container evidence;
- supports image-only discovery through OCI and ForgeFlow repository/commit labels;
- adopts uniquely matched workloads into Deployments without requiring a prior ForgeFlow release operation;
- verifies every SSH deployment refresh against the current full Gitea branch SHA;
- treats matching commits as in order only while the container is running and healthy, and rejects ambiguous matches.

## 0.8.6 - 2026-07-26

- added contextual animated code maps to unused diff-canvas space;
- made illustrations respond to file type, diff size and pointer depth without obscuring code;
- enriched changed-file rows with clearer state chips, active hierarchy and premium interaction feedback;

## 0.8.5 - 2026-07-26

- fixed packaged update downloads when Gitea reports an asset URL with a different public origin;
- downloads release assets by immutable Gitea asset ID on the configured trusted origin;
- retains strict token isolation and never follows authenticated downloads to another host.

## 0.8.4 - 2026-07-26

- added interactive animated release-flow illustrations to high-value project surfaces;
- introduced cursor-responsive depth, travelling deployment signals and living status nodes;
- added compact repository illustration watermarks without reducing usable header space;

## 0.8.3 - 2026-07-26

- enriched light mode with layered color, depth and stronger navigation hierarchy;
- made every deployment visually identifiable by container, repository, environment and stable accent color;
- added live-versus-Gitea commit proof directly to deployment cards;
- reconciled stale failed operations against healthy live Unraid and current Gitea truth.

## 0.8.2 - 2026-07-26

- enabled checksum-verified binary auto-update for installed and portable Windows builds;
- added an external binary updater that waits for ForgeFlow to close, applies the verified release and restarts the application;
- added reproducible SHA-256 sidecars and authenticated Gitea release publishing;
- made packaged update checks fail clearly when a matching published release asset is incomplete.

## 0.8.1 - 2026-07-26

- introduced a refined premium visual system with clearer hierarchy, richer depth, responsive density and reduced-motion support;
- added a live open pull-request overview per repository instead of only pull-request creation;
- added a safe installed-connection self-test for DPAPI, Gitea identity, repository access and Actions access;
- verified the existing dedicated Unraid Ed25519 key and strict host fingerprint against the configured server;
