+# Changes Log
+
+## 2026-03-23
+
+### Added
+- Created `.idea/start prompt.md` as a persistent project working prompt for future sessions.
+- Added `.idea/changes.md` as the preferred in-project location for the detailed session change log.
+- Added release notes support in the active Bahmcloud Store runtime path: backend provider fetching, a dedicated API endpoint, and panel display for the currently selected version when provider release notes are available.
+- Bumped the Home Assistant panel asset cache-buster from `v=109` to `v=110` so the updated frontend loads reliably after deployment.
+- Bumped the integration version from `0.7.2` to `0.7.3`.
+- Added the `0.7.3` release entry to `CHANGELOG.md` with the new release-notes and project-workflow changes.
+- Added a persistent rule that commit messages, pushes, release notes, and changelog entries must never mention prompts, AI/KI tools, or `.idea` folder files.
+- Added a persistent release rule that future git tags and release names must use plain version numbers without a leading `v`.
+- Added a broader persistent rule that internal workflow or prompt/process decisions must never appear in any public-facing project communication.
+- Added a persistent language rule that all project-facing repository content must stay in English regardless of the chat language.
+- Added persistent pinned repositories support: favorites are stored in settings, exposed by the backend, filterable and sortable in the store view, and toggleable from the detail view without forcing a full repository refresh.
+- Bumped the integration version from `0.7.3` to `0.7.4` and added the `0.7.4` release entry to `CHANGELOG.md` for the pinned-repositories feature.
+- Added the broader product roadmap to the persistent project prompt: blueprints, templates, Lovelace designs, and more category support as future store targets.
+- Started the blueprint/category-aware installer preparation: installation metadata now distinguishes install type and installed paths, repo payloads expose install targets, and the active panel shows install-target context for future non-integration categories.
+- Added initial blueprint install-path handling groundwork so the codebase is no longer fully hard-wired to `custom_components/`.
+- Bumped the integration version from `0.7.4` to `0.7.5` and added the `0.7.5` release entry to `CHANGELOG.md` for blueprint support and the documentation refresh.
+- Fixed blueprint update backups: blueprint file updates now create content backups before overwrite and can roll back copied blueprint files if installation fails.
+- Kept the no-restart behavior for blueprints, because blueprint deployment does not normally require a Home Assistant restart.
+- Restored blueprint backup/restore availability in the UI and backend: the restore button is visible again for blueprint installs, blueprint backups can be listed, and blueprint content can now be restored from backup without forcing a restart.
+- Fixed category-specific uninstall and restore messaging in the active panel: blueprints now reference `/config/blueprints` and explicitly state that no restart is required, while integrations keep the `/config/custom_components` restart warning.
+- Updated the public documentation set (`README.md`, `README_DEVELOPER.md`, `README_FULL.md`, and `CHANGELOG.md`) for the completed blueprint backup, restore, uninstall, and restart-behavior work, and bumped the integration version to `0.7.6` for the next release.
+- Fixed stale Home Assistant update entities after uninstall: BCS now removes orphaned update entities from the running platform state and entity registry when an installed repository or blueprint is uninstalled.
+
+### Documented
+- Captured the verified project identity from the repository and README files: Bahmcloud Store is a Home Assistant custom integration intended to behave like a provider-neutral store for custom integrations, similar to HACS but broader than GitHub-only workflows.
+- Recorded the actual active architecture from source analysis, including the config-entry-only setup, the fixed Bahmcloud store index, delayed startup refresh, periodic refresh, repo merge flow, cache usage, install/update/uninstall pipeline, backup/restore pipeline, update entities, and Repairs-based restart handling.
+- Recorded the current provider reality from code: GitHub, GitLab, and Gitea-compatible repositories are the concrete supported paths today, while truly generic "all git providers" support is still an intention and must be validated case by case.
+- Recorded the public API endpoints exposed by `views.py` so future work preserves the current backend contract unless a deliberate breaking change is approved.
+- Recorded storage facts from `storage.py`, including the `bcs_store` Home Assistant storage key and the persisted sections for custom repositories, installed repositories, settings, HACS cache, and repo enrichment cache.
+- Recorded frontend facts from the active panel registration in `__init__.py` and the active frontend implementation in `panel/panel.js`, including the cache-busting panel asset version query.
+- Updated the persistent start prompt to point future work to `.idea/changes.md` as the canonical detailed work log.
+- Release notes are intentionally tied to provider release objects, so tags or branches without release bodies now return a clear "not available" state instead of misleading fallback text.
+
+### Important findings from code analysis
+- Identified `custom_components/bahmcloud_store/panel/panel.js` as the active Home Assistant panel script currently loaded by the integration.
+- Identified `custom_components/bahmcloud_store/panel/app.js`, `custom_components/bahmcloud_store/panel/index.html`, and `custom_components/bahmcloud_store/panel/styles.css` as likely legacy or secondary assets that should not be treated as authoritative without verification.
+- Identified `custom_components/bahmcloud_store/store.py` as an older implementation with a different data model and API shape than the active `BCSCore` runtime.
+- Identified `custom_components/bahmcloud_store/custom_repo_view.py` as duplicate or legacy API code because the active custom-repo handling already exists in `views.py`.
+- Noted that the README set is directionally useful but not fully authoritative where it conflicts with current code behavior.
+- Noted that some repository files contain encoding or mojibake artifacts, so future edits should preserve valid UTF-8 and avoid spreading broken text.
+
+### Project rules written into the start prompt
+- Never push, commit, tag, or create a release without explicit user approval.
+- Always append a dated and detailed entry to `.idea/changes.md` for every change made.
+- When a release is created, collect all relevant changes since the last release into `CHANGELOG.md`.
+
+### Verification
+- Reviewed repository structure and current git status.
+- Read `README.md`, `README_DEVELOPER.md`, `README_FULL.md`, `bcs.yaml`, and the current `CHANGELOG.md`.
+- Analyzed the active backend files: `__init__.py`, `const.py`, `core.py`, `providers.py`, `metadata.py`, `storage.py`, `views.py`, `config_flow.py`, `update.py`, and `repairs.py`.
+- Checked panel and legacy-related files to distinguish the currently active UI path from older or duplicated files.
+- Verified that the active panel (`panel/panel.js`) now requests release notes from the new backend route and reloads them when the selected install version changes.

+# Bahmcloud Store - Developer Documentation
+
+For contributors and maintainers.
+
+## Project Scope
+
+Bahmcloud Store is evolving from an integration-only store into a broader Home Assistant git-based content store.
+
+Currently supported install categories:
+
+- Integrations
+- Blueprints
+
+Planned categories:
+
+- Templates
+- Lovelace / dashboard designs
+- Additional content types with category-specific install logic
+
+## Repository Layout
+
+Repositories related to the project:
+
+1. Installer add-on:
+   `https://git.bahmcloud.de/bahmcloud/addons`
+2. Core integration:
+   `https://git.bahmcloud.de/bahmcloud/bahmcloud_store`
+3. Store index:
+   `https://git.bahmcloud.de/bahmcloud/ha_store`
+
+## Integration Layout
+
+`custom_components/bahmcloud_store/`
+
+- `__init__.py`: setup, panel registration, delayed startup refresh, periodic refresh
+- `core.py`: index merge, repo enrichment, install/update/uninstall, backup/restore, category-aware install groundwork
+- `providers.py`: provider detection, latest version lookup, release notes, README fetching
+- `metadata.py`: reads `bcs.yaml`, `hacs.json`, and `hacs.yaml`
+- `storage.py`: persistent storage for installed repos, settings, caches
+- `views.py`: HTTP API
+- `update.py`: Home Assistant update entities
+- `repairs.py`: restart-required repair flow
+- `panel/`: active frontend panel
+- `manifest.json`
+
+## Runtime Model
+
+- `RepoItem`: merged repository model used by the UI and backend
+- Installed repositories: persisted in Home Assistant storage
+- Settings: persistent UI and behavior settings such as HACS enablement and pinned repositories
+- Repo cache: provider and metadata enrichment cache
+- HACS cache: display metadata cache for HACS integration repositories
+
+## Metadata
+
+Metadata priority:
+
+1. `bcs.yaml`
+2. `hacs.yaml`
+3. `hacs.json`
+
+Common fields:
+
+```yaml
+name: Example Project
+description: Short description
+category: Integrations
+author: Example Author
+maintainer: Example Maintainer
+```
+
+Category currently matters operationally:
+
+- `Integrations` -> install from `custom_components/...`
+- `Blueprint` / `Blueprints` -> install from `blueprints/...`
+
+## Supported Install Categories
+
+### Integrations
+
+- Expected source layout: `custom_components/<domain>/manifest.json`
+- Install target: `/config/custom_components/<domain>`
+- Supports backup, restore, update entities, and restart-required flow
+
+### Blueprints
+
+- Expected source layout: `blueprints/...`
+- Install target: `/config/blueprints/...`
+- Supports install, update, uninstall, content backup, and content restore
+- Restores and uninstalls are path-based and operate on the recorded installed blueprint files
+- Category-aware groundwork is in place so future content types can use their own install strategies
+
+## HTTP API
+
+Base path: `/api/bcs`
+
+- `GET /api/bcs`
+- `POST /api/bcs?action=refresh`
+- `GET /api/bcs/settings`
+- `POST /api/bcs/settings`
+- `GET /api/bcs/readme?repo_id=...`
+- `GET /api/bcs/release_notes?repo_id=...&ref=...`
+- `GET /api/bcs/versions?repo_id=...`
+- `GET /api/bcs/repo?repo_id=...`
+- `POST /api/bcs/install?repo_id=...&version=...`
+- `POST /api/bcs/update?repo_id=...&version=...`
+- `POST /api/bcs/uninstall?repo_id=...`
+- `GET /api/bcs/backups?repo_id=...`
+- `POST /api/bcs/restore?repo_id=...&backup_id=...`
+- `POST /api/bcs/restart`
+- `DELETE /api/bcs/custom_repo?id=...`
+
+## Current UI Features
+
+- Search, source filter, category filter, state filter, sorting
+- HACS integration source toggle
+- Pinned repositories
+- README rendering
+- Release notes rendering
+- Version selection
+- Backup restore UI for integrations and blueprints
+
+## Contributing to the Official Store Index
+
+Add a repository to the BCS store index in `ha_store`.
+
+Example index entry:
+
+```yaml
+- name: Example Project
+  url: https://your-git-hoster.example/org/repo
+  category: Blueprint
+```
+
+Recommended repository metadata:
+
+```yaml
+name: Example Project
+description: One-line description
+category: Blueprint
+author: Example Author
+maintainer: Example Maintainer
+```
+
+Validation should match the category:
+
+- Integrations: verify `custom_components/<domain>/manifest.json`
+- Blueprints: verify `blueprints/...`
+
+## Design Direction
+
+The long-term architecture should remain category-aware:
+
+- category -> validation strategy
+- category -> install target
+- category -> backup / restore behavior
+- category -> UI affordances
+
+This is especially important before Templates and Lovelace support are added, because those should stay compatible with established HACS expectations where possible.

+
+BCS stores the installed ref separately from any version declared inside the repository itself.
+That makes update checks more reliable when a repository uses tags or releases that do not exactly match its internal manifest version.
+
+---
+
+## Supported Content Types
+
+### Integrations
+
+- Source layout: `custom_components/<domain>/...`
+- Install target: `/config/custom_components/<domain>`
+- Supports install, update, downgrade, uninstall, backups, restore, and update entities
+- Restart required after install, update, uninstall, or restore
+
+### Blueprints
+
+- Source layout: `blueprints/...`
+- Install target: `/config/blueprints/...`
+- Supports install, update, uninstall, backup, and restore through the store
+- Intended for blueprint repositories without integration-specific folder structures
+
+---
+
+## UI Overview
+
+Store view:
+
+- Search
+- Source filter
+- Category filter
+- State filter
+- Sorting
+- HACS source toggle
+- Pinned repository filtering and sorting
+
+Repository detail view:
+
+- README rendering
+- Release notes for provider releases
+- Version selector
+- Install / Update / Uninstall actions
+- Pin / Unpin action
+- Backup restore action for integrations
+- Category and install target information
+
+---
+
+## Finding Repositories
+
+1. Use **Search** to filter by name, description, or URL.
+2. Use **Source** to switch between BCS Official, HACS, and Custom repositories.
+3. Use **Category** to focus on a specific content type.
+4. Use **Pinned** filtering or sorting to surface repositories you watch often.
+
+Descriptions, metadata, and latest versions may appear progressively because BCS enriches repository information in the background.
+
+---
+
+## Installing
+
+### Integration Install
+
+1. Open a repository.
+2. Optionally select a version.
+3. Click **Install**.
+4. Restart Home Assistant when prompted.
+
+Internally, BCS:
+
+- downloads the selected repository archive
+- extracts `custom_components/...`
+- installs every valid integration found there
+- stores the installed ref
+- creates backups before overwriting existing integration folders
+
+### Blueprint Install
+
+1. Open a blueprint repository.
+2. Optionally select a version.
+3. Click **Install**.
+
+Internally, BCS:
+
+- downloads the selected repository archive
+- extracts `blueprints/...`
+- copies blueprint files into `/config/blueprints/...`
+
+Blueprint installs normally do not require a Home Assistant restart.
+
+---
+
+## Selecting Versions
+
+- Use the version selector in the detail view.
+- `Latest` uses the newest provider release or tag BCS can determine.
+- You can install an older release or tag when available.
+- Release notes are shown when the selected version is a provider release with a body.
+
+---
+
+## Updating
+
+### Integrations
+
+- The **Update** button appears when the latest ref differs from the installed ref.
+- Updates are also available through **Settings -> Updates** via native Home Assistant update entities.
+- Integration updates create backups before overwriting files.
+
+### Blueprints
+
+- Blueprint repositories can also be updated or reinstalled from another selected version.
+- Blueprint updates create content backups before overwriting files.
+- The current blueprint path handling is focused on direct deployment to the blueprints folder.
+
+---
+
+## Uninstalling
+
+### Integrations
+
+- Removes the installed integration directories from `/config/custom_components`
+- Clears the installed state in BCS
+- Usually requires a restart
+
+### Blueprints
+
+- Removes the installed blueprint files recorded by BCS
+- Cleans up empty directories below `/config/blueprints` when possible
+- Does not require a restart under normal conditions
+
+---
+
+## Pinned Repositories
+
+You can pin repositories to keep important items easy to find.
+
+Current behavior:
+
+- Pin or unpin from the detail view
+- Filter the store by pinned repositories
+- Sort the store with pinned repositories first
+- Pinned repositories show a dedicated badge in the store overview
+- Pinned state is persisted in settings
+
+---
+
+## Release Notes
+
+When a provider release has a release body, BCS can show release notes in the detail view for the selected version.
+
+Notes:
+
+- Release notes are available for real releases, not every tag or branch
+- If no provider release body exists, BCS shows a clear not-available state
+
+---
+
+## Backups and Restore
+
+Integration installs and updates create backups before overwriting existing files.
+Blueprint updates also create content backups before overwriting deployed blueprint files.
+
+Backup path:
+
+`/config/.bcs_backups/<domain>/<timestamp>/`
+
+Restore flow:
+
+1. Open the repository detail
+2. Click **Restore**
+3. Select a backup
+4. Confirm restore
+5. Restart Home Assistant if prompted
+
+Restore is available for integrations and blueprints.
+
+Blueprint restore flow:
+
+1. Open the blueprint repository detail
+2. Click **Restore**
+3. Select a backup
+4. Confirm restore
+
+Blueprint restores overwrite the recorded installed files under `/config/blueprints/...` and normally do not require a restart.
+
+---
+
+## Custom Repositories
+
+You can add any public repository URL that matches a supported provider style and contains supported content.
+
+BCS attempts to detect:
+
+- provider
+- default branch
+- latest version
+- metadata from `bcs.yaml`, `hacs.yaml`, or `hacs.json`
+- README content
+
+Custom repositories get a **Custom** badge and can be filtered separately.
+
+---
+
+## HACS Repositories
+
+Enable the HACS toggle to include official HACS integration repositories.
+
+Current scope:
+
+- HACS source support is currently focused on integrations
+- HACS metadata is used to improve naming and descriptions
+
+---
+
+## Update Entities
+
+BCS exposes Home Assistant update entities for installed integrations.
+
+- Found under **Settings -> Updates**
+- Shows installed ref and latest ref
+- Lets Home Assistant trigger the BCS update pipeline
+
+Blueprint repositories do not currently use the integration-style update entity flow.
+
+---
+
+## Performance and Caching
+
+BCS is designed to keep startup responsive.
+
+- Heavy work runs after Home Assistant startup
+- Repo data is enriched in the background
+- Repository details are cached
+- Version lists are cached
+- HACS metadata is cached
+
+Opening a repository detail view can force immediate enrichment for that repository.
+
+---
+
+## Restart Behavior
+
+Restart usually matters only for integration changes.
+
+- Integration install/update/uninstall/restore: restart expected
+- Blueprint install/update/uninstall/restore: restart usually not needed
+
+BCS uses a Home Assistant repair flow to surface restart requirements for integration changes.
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **Latest version missing**: open the repository detail once to force a recheck
+- **Release notes missing**: the selected version may be a tag or branch without a provider release body
+- **Blueprint install fails**: verify the repository really contains a `blueprints/` folder
+- **Integration install fails**: verify the repository contains `custom_components/<domain>/manifest.json`
+- **Repo appears but cannot install**: metadata can describe the category, but the repository layout still has to match that category
+
+---
+
+## FAQ
+
+### Where are integrations installed?
+
+`/config/custom_components/<domain>`
+
+### Where are blueprints installed?
+
+`/config/blueprints/...`
+
+### Are pinned repositories persistent?
+
+Yes.
+
+### Do blueprints require a restart?
+
+Usually no.
+
+### Do integrations require a restart?
+
+Yes, normally after install, update, uninstall, or restore.
