# 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.
### 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.
