Changelog

All notable changes to Crown are documented in this file.

This file is automatically maintained by release-please from Conventional Commits. The format follows Keep a Changelog. The version scheme is SemVer.

How releases happen:

Push to main with a Conventional Commit (feat:, fix:, chore:, etc.).
release-please opens (or updates) a single "release PR" with the next version + changelog diff.
Review + merge the release PR → tag is cut, GitHub Release is published, package.json + .release-please-manifest.json are bumped.

Baseline release. Captures everything shipped in the first ~46 PRs before automated changelog management was wired up.

Catalog pipeline — full async generation flow: pain discovery (LangGraph) → enrichment (V3, 6-layer) → TRIBUNAL (8-judge consensus) → idea generation → reports → DB
Auto-catalog cron — 10 GCP Cloud Scheduler slots produce ~10 catalogs/day with country-aware RSS sourcing
Country gate — three-rule pain-discovery gate (target-in-title accept, competing-country reject, snippet fallback) prevents cross-country catalogs
Admin catalog editor — /admin/catalog/[id]/edit lets admins fix any field on a row + re-run the orchestrator (audit-logged)
Cron kill-switch — /admin/crons master toggle pauses every scheduled job during incident triage
Catalog detail — separated Share + Build sections, WhatsApp added, vibe-coder CTAs (Lovable, Blink) cleanly distinct
/catalog — defaults to newest-first sort (was score)
Home rail — "Just researched" strip with view counts + per-card CTA + impression/click funnel
User-paid generation — /dashboard with mandatory country dropdown, Firebase auth, credit wallet, Cloud Tasks → tribunal-worker
Dev stack — docker compose up boots Postgres + Next.js hot-reload with .env.local quickstart

Country mismatch — LangGraph channels weren't propagating the gate flag; Serper queries used 2-char ISO codes instead of full country names; gate accepted any-keyword-anywhere instead of weighting title
Schema drift — /api/user/catalogs + /api/admin/retry-catalog selected JSONB columns that prod had moved to GCS via migration 024
Production credentials leak — PR #35 accidentally committed a DB password; rotated immediately + tightened precommit gitleaks rules to catch the class
Cloud Run + Vercel deploy parity — fixed .dockerignore excluding paths the prod Dockerfile copied; added post-deploy catalog smoke workflow via Workload Identity Federation

CLAUDE.md — ship cycle (13 steps), deploy targets, scheduler cadence table, local-dev quickstart, env-file gotchas, emergency-stop reference
README — Getting Started section with prerequisites, first-time setup, daily commands, common foot-guns
.env.local.example — grouped by failure mode (REQUIRED / REQUIRED-FOR-FEATURE / OPTIONAL), every key the running app reads

GH Actions quota cut — restricted Deploy Vercel to manual-only, removed Security Scan PR trigger, added concurrency cancellation to CI
Master switch table — system_settings kv table (migration 058) backing the cron kill-switch
Admin audit log — admin_audit_log (migration 059) tracks every mutation with hashed key fingerprint
