+## 0.7.2 – 2026-01-20
+
+### Fixed
+- When Bahmcloud Store is installed via an external installer (files copied into /config/custom_components), it now reconciles itself as "installed" in BCS storage so update checks work immediately.
+
+## 0.7.1 – 2026-01-20
+
+### Fixed
+- GitHub version provider now reliably fetches the latest 20 releases/tags using authenticated API requests.
+- Repositories that were previously fetched in a degraded state (only `latest` and `branch`) are now automatically refreshed on repository view.
+- Cached version lists with incomplete data are no longer reused and are re-fetched from the provider.
+
+## [0.7.0] - 2026-01-20
+
+### Added
+- Options dialog (gear icon) for the Bahmcloud Store integration.
+- Optional GitHub token can now be set, changed or removed via the Home Assistant UI.
+
+### Fixed
+- Fixed missing options flow when clicking the integration settings button.
+
+## [0.6.9] – 2026-01-19
+### Added
+- New Home Assistant **GUI setup** (Config Flow) – no YAML configuration required.
+- Optional **GitHub Token** support to increase API limits (up to 5000 req/h).  
+  Configurable via *Integration → Options*.
+- Clear setup guidance and warning about GitHub rate limits.
+- Automatic detection and warning if YAML setup is still present (ignored safely).
+
+### Changed
+- **store.yaml** URL is now fixed to the official Bahmcloud Store index:
+  https://git.bahmcloud.de/bahmcloud/ha_store/raw/branch/main/store.yaml
+- Installation workflow fully aligned with standard HA integrations.
+- Update platform migrated to `async_setup_entry`.
+
+### Fixed
+- Minor stability and persistence improvements in startup sequence.
+- Prevented duplicate background initialization when HA reloads the integration.
+
+### Notes
+- To enable extended GitHub access, create a fine-grained personal access token
+  (read-only) at https://github.com/settings/tokens and add it via the integration options.
+
 ## 0.6.8 – Performance & Cache Stabilization (2026-01-19)
 
 ### Fixed
