Revision history for Developer Dashboard
1.22.1 2026-04-02
- fixed uninitialized value warnings in listening_url() by guarding against undefined daemon and providing fallback defaults for sockhost and sockport
- all warnings from Developer::Dashboard code now eliminated (remaining warnings are from external dependencies)
1.22 2026-04-02
- added HTTPS support to the web server with `dashboard serve --ssl` flag, enabling Starman HTTPS mode
- added automatic self-signed certificate generation in `~/.developer-dashboard/certs/server.crt` and `~/.developer-dashboard/certs/server.key` on first HTTPS startup
- configured Starman to accept `--ssl-key` and `--ssl-cert` parameters through Plack::Runner when SSL mode is enabled
- added Web::Server SSL test coverage for cert generation, cert path retrieval, SSL parameter passing, and listening URL scheme selection
- implemented web service settings persistence: `dashboard serve --host HOST --port PORT --workers N --ssl` now saves these settings globally
- `dashboard restart` now inherits all saved settings (host, port, workers, ssl) from the previous serve session, so `dashboard serve --ssl` followed by `dashboard restart` maintains SSL mode
- CLI flags override saved settings, allowing temporary overrides when needed (e.g., `dashboard restart --ssl` to enable SSL or `dashboard restart --port 8000` to use a different port)
- added Config module persistence methods `web_settings()` and `save_global_web_settings()` for atomic multi-setting updates
- added comprehensive test suite for configuration persistence with default values, save/load cycles, partial updates, and validation
1.21 2026-04-02
- fixed malformed legacy bookmark icon bytes on saved page load by normalizing broken heading and item icon glyphs into stable browser-safe fallbacks and repairing common damaged joined emoji such as `🧑💻`
- kept saved edit and source routes on the repaired raw bookmark text from disk instead of always regenerating canonical source, so browser views preserve the repaired legacy icon markup
- added direct page-store and web-route regressions for malformed legacy bookmark icon bytes plus a browser-backed saved-page smoke verification against the reproduced `/tmp/index` issue
1.20 2026-04-02
- fixed bookmark editor overlay drift by restoring live syntax highlighting inside a clipped overlay viewport that follows the textarea by transform instead of trying to scroll a second independent layer
- fixed the editor bottom-of-file geometry by preserving the final blank line in the overlay so scrolling and caret targeting stay aligned on long bookmarks
- added browser-backed and web-route regression coverage for the saved bookmark editor highlighting and scroll-sync behaviour
1.19 2026-04-02
- fixed plain legacy `Folder` alias drift so direct calls such as `perl -MFolder -e 'print Folder->docker'` now lazy-load config-backed path aliases from the active runtime instead of rejecting aliases that `dashboard paths` already exposes
- kept explicit `Folder->configure(..., aliases => ...)` overrides intact while adding the lazy config-backed alias cache
- added legacy-helper regression coverage for repo-local config alias resolution through plain `Folder` usage
1.18 2026-04-02
- fixed singleton-managed saved Ajax lifecycle cleanup so `dashboard stop` and `dashboard restart` now terminate `dashboard ajax: ...` workers as part of the managed web shutdown path
- added browser `pagehide` cleanup beacons for `Ajax(..., singleton => 'NAME', ...)`, letting saved bookmark pages call `/ajax/singleton/stop?singleton=NAME` when the tab closes so singleton workers do not linger after browser exit
- added direct web/runtime regressions for singleton stop-route cleanup, stop/restart singleton teardown, and writer-cancelled saved Ajax streams
- changed the bookmark editor overlay to render exact escaped source with wrapping disabled instead of live syntax markup, preventing long exact bookmark edits from leaking highlight fragments, mis-highlighting selections, or shifting the caret onto the wrong line
- added exact editor geometry regressions for the long bookmark repro and reran the browser-backed editor verification path
1.17 2026-04-02
- fixed bookmark editor script-block highlighting so saved `/app/<id>/edit` pages keep JavaScript lines in script mode instead of flipping into CSS-style attribute/value markup after `<script>` tags
- protected the browser and server editor highlighters from rewriting their own inserted span markup, preventing placeholder or token-fragment leaks that could dislocate the visible overlay while typing exact saved bookmark text
- updated `dashboard serve workers N` to start the web service immediately when it is stopped, with `--host HOST` and `--port PORT` available for that auto-start path
- added focused web and CLI regressions for the exact bookmark editor repro and for `dashboard serve workers` starting a stopped web service
- verified the exact `/app/test/edit` bookmark repro in headless Chromium, updated testing and architecture docs, and bumped release metadata for 1.17
1.16 2026-04-02
- fixed bookmark editor typing drift by removing width-changing bold styling from the visible directive highlight overlay, keeping the syntax-highlight layer aligned with the real textarea caret while typing
- verified the editor route through headless Chromium in addition to the web regression test coverage
1.15 2026-04-02
- added `singleton => 'NAME'` support to saved bookmark `Ajax(...)` helpers, emitting `/ajax/<file>?type=...&singleton=NAME` so browser refreshes can replace older long-running Perl ajax workers cleanly
- renamed singleton-managed saved Ajax Perl workers to `dashboard ajax: NAME` and reused `_pkill_perl` before launching a replacement stream, preventing stale refresh-driven background workers from accumulating
- extended web and legacy-helper coverage for singleton Ajax urls, singleton process titles, and refresh-safe saved Ajax replacement behaviour
1.14 2026-04-02
- updated the GitHub Actions workflows to use `actions/checkout@v5` and opt JavaScript actions into Node 24, removing the hosted-runner deprecation path for the previous Node 20 checkout runtime
- closed the remaining `lib/` coverage gaps in `Developer::Dashboard::Web::App`, `Developer::Dashboard::Web::DancerApp`, and `Developer::Dashboard::RuntimeManager`, bringing the reviewed Devel::Cover report back to 100% statement and subroutine coverage
- fixed runtime web-process detection so `dashboard serve logs ...` and `dashboard serve workers ...` helper commands are no longer misdetected as managed web servers during shutdown and restart scans
1.13 2026-04-02
- extended `dashboard serve logs` with `-n N` tailing and `-f` follow mode, so users can start from the last requested lines and continue streaming appended Dancer2 and Starman log output live
- added runtime-manager and CLI regressions for tailed and followed web logs
- updated README, main POD, architecture docs, and release metadata for the 1.13 log-tail follow release
1.12 2026-04-02
- added `dashboard serve logs` so users can print the combined Dancer2 and Starman runtime log without hunting for the dashboard log file manually
- added configurable Starman worker counts through `dashboard serve workers N`, plus one-off `dashboard serve --workers N` and `dashboard restart --workers N` overrides
- updated README, main POD, architecture docs, and release metadata for the 1.12 web-log and worker-control release
1.11 2026-04-02
- fixed saved bookmark Ajax Perl wrappers to enable autoflush on `STDOUT` and `STDERR`, so long-running handlers that only `print` and `sleep` now stream visible browser output immediately instead of stalling behind process buffering
- extended the blank-environment integration runner to exercise a long-running saved `/ajax/...` stream and assert that the first chunks arrive on time through the installed browser-facing route
- updated README, POD, testing docs, fixed-bug notes, and release metadata for the 1.11 saved-ajax streaming release
1.10 2026-04-02
- changed saved bookmark Ajax helpers and `/ajax/<file>` routes to default to `text/plain` output when no explicit `type => ...` or `?type=...` is supplied
- fixed the Dancer2 ajax bridge so streamed `/ajax/...` responses flush through the HTTP layer instead of being buffered into one final string
- extended ajax helper, web-route, and streaming coverage and updated README, POD, bug notes, and release metadata for the 1.10 ajax-default and streaming fix
1.09 2026-04-02
- fixed transient `/?mode=render&token=...` play for named bookmarks so shared `nav/*.tt` fragments keep the saved `/app/<id>` current-page context instead of collapsing to `/`
- added a dedicated bookmark play regression test for shared nav rendering on both unnamed transient play and named bookmark token play
- updated README, POD, fixed-bug notes, and release metadata for the 1.09 nav-context fix
1.08 2026-04-02
- added `integration/browser/run-bookmark-browser-smoke.pl` for fast host-side browser verification of saved bookmark files, including page-source, ajax, and final DOM assertions
- documented the new bookmark browser smoke workflow in README, main POD, testing docs, and the integration plan so bookmark regressions get a dedicated repro path before the slower blank-environment cycle
- updated release metadata and release-sensitive tests for the 1.08 bookmark browser smoke tooling release
1.07 2026-04-02
- fixed `/js/jquery.js` for saved bookmark pages by serving a built-in local jQuery-style compatibility shim when no runtime file overrides it
- verified that legacy `Ajax jvar => 'foo.bar', file => 'foobar'` bookmark pages bind `foo.bar` to `/ajax/foobar?...` and that the saved ajax endpoint executes through the browser-facing route
- updated README, POD, static-file docs, release docs, and release-sensitive tests for the new built-in `/js/jquery.js` behavior
1.06 2026-04-02
- fixed saved bookmark editor boot-script escaping so literal bookmark HTML such as `</script>` no longer breaks the source editor and leaks raw instruction text below the page
- fixed legacy bookmark bootstrap ordering so `Ajax jvar => ...` bindings run after `set_chain_value()` is defined, preventing play-route JavaScript `ReferenceError` failures
- updated README, POD, changelog, fixed-bug notes, and troubleshooting docs to describe the bookmark editor/script bootstrap fixes
1.05 2026-04-02
- fixed saved bookmark editor boot-script escaping so literal bookmark HTML such as `</script>` no longer breaks the source editor and leaks raw instruction text below the page
- fixed legacy bookmark bootstrap ordering so `Ajax jvar => ...` bindings run after `set_chain_value()` is defined, preventing play-route JavaScript `ReferenceError` failures
- removed the parallel `/page/...` browser route surface and moved saved render, edit, source, and action routes fully onto `/app/...`
- fixed the web server constructor so `port => 0` keeps the requested ephemeral-port bind instead of collapsing back to the default `7890`
- fixed the blank-environment runner so the helper-login flow now opens `/app/welcome` instead of the removed `/page/welcome` route, and made the browser step resolve or bootstrap Chromium when the prebuilt `dd-int-test:latest` image is stale
- fixed runtime restart races by waiting for the old listener on the managed web port to disappear before starting the replacement server, preventing intermittent `Address already in use` failures during `dashboard restart`
- fixed minimal-container listener discovery by falling back to `/proc` socket scans when `ss` is unavailable, so `dashboard stop` and `dashboard restart` still find Starman listener pids inside the prebuilt `dd-int-test:latest` image
- fixed the remaining blank-container restart race by re-probing the managed web port for late listener pids after the first shutdown sweep, so `dashboard restart` no longer leaves port `7890` occupied after the initial TERM/KILL pass
- fixed managed web detection for the Dancer2/Starman master-worker split, so `dashboard stop` and `dashboard restart` still trust the recorded master pid when the bound port listener is reported as a separate worker pid
- updated README, POD, and route-focused tests to document and verify the single `/app/...` saved bookmark surface
1.04 2026-04-01
- completed the browser migration onto explicit Dancer2 routes, so the HTTP route table now lives in `Developer::Dashboard::Web::DancerApp` instead of a single catch-all bridge into the old dispatcher
- kept `Developer::Dashboard::Web::App` as the page and action service layer, so saved-page rendering, helper auth, legacy `/app` compatibility, and transient-policy enforcement continue to behave the same behind the new Dancer2 route surface
- added PSGI entrypoint and route-layer regression coverage for the Dancer2 server path, response headers, and route compatibility flow
1.03 2026-04-01
- fixed the blank-environment integration runner so long-running commands stream stdout and stderr live instead of buffering silently through the wrapper, making fresh-container `cpanm` and browser-backed verification progress visible
- fixed the blank-environment integration runner to derive the expected installed version from the extracted tarball instead of hard-coding a release number, so the clean-container flow keeps working across version bumps
- re-ran the host-built tarball blank-environment integration flow successfully, including the headless Chromium browser checks
1.02 2026-04-01
- fixed saved bookmark static asset lookup so `/js/*`, `/css/*`, and `/others/*` can resolve files from the effective runtime public tree and from `dashboards/public/...`, keeping saved local assets such as `dashboards/public/js/jquery.js` available after browser saves
- fixed legacy bookmark parsing so a standalone `---` line also terminates the current legacy section, preventing pasted prose after `CODE*` blocks from being compiled and shown as runtime syntax errors or leaked back into the editor
- added regressions for markdown-style legacy section breaks and for static file lookup from both runtime and bookmark-root public directories
1.01 2026-04-01
- fixed saved bookmark editor posts so `/page/<id>/edit` saves keep using named saved-bookmark routes and `/page/<id>` play links instead of falling back to transient `token=` URLs when transient web tokens are disabled
- reduced CLI startup side effects by deferring configured path-alias loading, saved-page migration, and collector-indicator sync until commands that actually need them run
- extended web and CLI regressions for saved bookmark browser edits under the transient-url deny policy and for `dashboard restart` avoiding accidental project-local `.developer-dashboard` creation in repos that have not opted in
1.00 2026-04-01
- added static file serving for public directory (js, css, others) at ~/.developer-dashboard/dashboard/public/{js,css,others}/
- added routes /js/*, /css/*, /others/* to serve static files with automatic MIME type detection
- included jQuery 4.0.0 minified in public/js/ to eliminate CDN dependencies
- implemented directory traversal attack prevention and file boundary validation
- added comprehensive unit tests for static file serving and MIME type detection (18 tests)
- added documentation for static file serving in doc/static-file-serving.md
- extended web app POD documentation with _serve_static_file and _get_content_type methods
0.99 2026-04-01
- moved saved bookmark `Ajax(file => ...)` storage into `.developer-dashboard/dashboards/ajax/...`, so named handlers live under the saved bookmark tree instead of the runtime cache
- changed saved bookmark `Ajax(file => ...)` calls without `code => ...` to point at an existing executable in that ajax tree instead of overwriting it with an empty generated file
- changed transient-url-disabled saved bookmark Ajax endpoints to emit `/ajax/<file>?type=...` and resolve files directly from the shared dashboards ajax tree
- fixed saved Ajax stream draining so closed-handle comparisons stop emitting uninitialized-value warnings during coverage and process-backed ajax runs
- extended unit, metadata, and blank-environment integration coverage for the dashboards ajax-tree location and existing-file execution flow
0.98 2026-04-01
- changed saved bookmark `/ajax?page=...&file=...` handlers to execute the stored runtime-cache file as a real process, defaulting to Perl unless the file starts with a shebang
- streamed both saved-handler `stdout` and `stderr` back to the browser directly, so `print`, `warn`, `die`, `system`, and `exec` behave like the old playground progress stream instead of a buffered JSON-style response
- extended unit, metadata, and blank-environment integration coverage for process-backed ajax streaming and shebang-backed saved handlers
0.97 2026-04-01
- changed legacy `/ajax` execution to run bookmark Ajax Perl code directly and stream raw output chunks back to the browser instead of buffering through a page render pass
- changed saved bookmark `Ajax file => ...` handlers to preserve live browser progress updates while transient token urls remain disabled by default
- extended app, server, metadata, and coverage tests for streamed `/ajax` responses and saved bookmark file handlers
0.96 2026-04-01
- changed saved bookmark `Ajax` helper calls to support explicit `file => 'name.json'` routes, storing the handler code under the runtime cache and emitting `/ajax?page=...&file=...` endpoints that stay usable while transient token urls are disabled
- kept transient `/ajax?token=...` support for transient pages behind the existing transient-url opt-in, while making saved bookmark ajax handlers work under the default deny policy
- extended unit, metadata, and blank-environment integration coverage for saved bookmark Ajax file routing
0.95 2026-04-01
- disabled browser execution of transient `token=` and `atoken=` payloads by default, so only saved bookmark-file routes execute unless `DEVELOPER_DASHBOARD_ALLOW_TRANSIENT_URLS` is enabled explicitly
- kept saved bookmark posts and saved page routes working while rejecting transient root-editor runs, encoded action URLs, and legacy `/ajax?token=...` requests with an explicit `403` policy response
- extended unit, release-metadata, and blank-environment integration coverage for the new transient web token policy
0.94 2026-04-01
- fixed `Folder->dd` and `Folder->runtime_root` so they keep the home runtime root unchanged when the current working directory is already inside `~/.developer-dashboard`, instead of appending a second `.developer-dashboard`
0.93 2026-04-01
- made a project-local `./.developer-dashboard` tree the first runtime lookup root for bookmarks, config, CLI commands and hooks, auth users, sessions, and isolated docker service folders, while still falling back to `~/.developer-dashboard` when the project-local item is missing
- seeded sanitized `api-dashboard` and `db-dashboard` bookmark pages during `dashboard init` alongside `welcome`, keeping the pages editable as normal saved bookmarks without carrying forward legacy company-specific text or credentials
- moved the blank-environment integration flow onto a real fake-project `./.developer-dashboard` tree so the tarball install verifies the same local-over-home precedence model used by the shipped runtime
0.92 2026-04-01
- hardened blank-environment tarball installation by exporting PERL_CANARY_STABILITY_NOPROMPT and the other noninteractive installer flags during clean-container cpanm runs
- kept the Runtime::Result hook-chain helper release intact while making the blank integration path safe against interactive dependency prompts from the JSON::XS toolchain
0.91 2026-04-01
- formalized per-hook RESULT rewrites between sorted CLI hook executions so each later hook sees the JSON result of earlier hook scripts
- added Runtime::Result as a Perl helper for decoding RESULT and reading prior hook stdout, stderr, exit codes, and the last recorded hook entry
- extended blank-environment integration coverage so dashboard update proves later executable hooks can react to earlier hook output through Runtime::Result
0.90 2026-04-01
- removed startup collector files and plugin packs so dashboard configuration JSON is the single source of truth for collectors, providers, path aliases, and docker overlays
- removed startup and plugin paths from the runtime surface, legacy Folder aliases, blank-environment integration flow, and supporting documentation
0.89 2026-04-01
- added an explicit Dist::Zilla runtime prerequisite for `JSON::XS` so the built tarball always declares the JSON backend dependency for PAUSE installs
- extended release metadata coverage to assert the shipped runtime prereqs include `JSON::XS`
0.88 2026-03-31
- removed the built-in `dashboard update` branch so `update` behaves like any other user-supplied top-level command
- kept `dashboard update` working through a user-provided `~/.developer-dashboard/cli/update` command plus sorted hook files from `update` or `update.d`
0.87 2026-03-31
- added `.d` hook-directory aliases so `~/.developer-dashboard/cli/<command>.d/` behaves the same as `~/.developer-dashboard/cli/<command>/` for top-level command hooks
- updated smoke and blank-environment integration coverage so the shipped runtime accepts `.d` hook folders for command preprocessing
0.86 2026-03-31
- changed the top-level command hook runner so executable files under `~/.developer-dashboard/cli/<command>` stream stdout and stderr live to the terminal instead of buffering silently until the command finishes
- kept the live-streamed hook output accumulated into `RESULT` JSON so later hook files and the final command still receive the full per-hook stdout, stderr, and exit code payloads
- updated smoke and integration-facing documentation for the new visible hook progress behavior
0.85 2026-03-31
- fixed bookmark Template Toolkit environment so saved pages and shared `nav/*.tt` fragments receive `env.current_page` for the active request path instead of only raw process environment values
- exposed the active request path again as `env.runtime_context.current_page`, keeping the rest of the request-time runtime context available to bookmark and nav Template Toolkit code
- added web regression coverage for nav Template Toolkit conditionals so a fragment such as `[% IF env.current_page == '/app/index' %]...[% END %]` renders against the outer page path
0.84 2026-03-31
- added explicit Dist::Zilla metadata for `provides` and repository resources so generated META files satisfy CPAN Kwalitee checks for shipped modules and source repository links
- added root `SECURITY.md` and `CONTRIBUTING.md` guidance, including a vulnerability-reporting contact and contributor workflow expectations
- updated release metadata tests and docs to keep repository metadata and contributor/security policy files aligned with future releases
0.83 2026-03-31
- added nested saved bookmark route support so `/app/nav/foo.tt`, `/page/nav/foo.tt/edit`, and `/page/nav/foo.tt/source` work like any other saved bookmark id
- fixed saved bookmark persistence for nested ids by creating parent directories automatically when bookmark ids contain path separators such as `nav/foo.tt`
- added shared `nav/*.tt` bookmark rendering so direct `.tt` files under the saved bookmark `nav/` folder render in sorted filename order between the top chrome and the main page body on other saved pages
0.82 2026-03-31
- fixed unconfigured legacy `Folder` access so `Folder->dd` and AUTOLOAD-backed root aliases such as `Folder->runtime_root` lazily bootstrap the default dashboard path registry from `$HOME` instead of dying or returning placeholder state
- added legacy helper coverage for the unconfigured `Folder` runtime access path so installed compatibility wrappers match `dashboard paths` even before explicit runtime wiring is applied
0.80 2026-03-31
- fixed legacy `Folder` compatibility so AUTOLOAD resolves `runtime_root`, `bookmarks_root`, `config_root`, and `startup_root` through the existing legacy alias methods instead of rejecting the modern path names shown by `dashboard paths`
- added legacy helper coverage for the root-style `Folder` names so installed compatibility code can call the same runtime path names exposed by the CLI
0.79 2026-03-31
- fixed the blank-container integration harness so fake-project dashboard override env vars are applied only after `cpanm` finishes installing the tarball
- kept the installed tarball test phase running in a clean environment, preventing the fake project from breaking shipped tests that expect an empty runtime
- updated integration asset coverage and release metadata for the new integration-harness fix release
0.78 2026-03-31
- added `dashboard version` so installed runtimes can report the shipped Developer Dashboard version directly
- kept `dashboard update` printing the common RESULT JSON map from the per-command hook runner
- updated tests and docs for the version command and explicit update output behavior
0.77 2026-03-31
- changed `dashboard update` to use the same top-level command hook path as every other `dashboard <command>` under `~/.developer-dashboard/cli/update`
- kept update hook execution based on executable regular files in sorted filename order while skipping non-executable files
- changed `dashboard update` output to return the common RESULT hash instead of a separate updater-managed step list
0.76 2026-03-31
- changed `dashboard update` to execute runtime-managed scripts from `~/.developer-dashboard/cli/update` instead of the repository-local `./updates` directory
- made `dashboard update` return an empty result set when no runtime update directory exists instead of dying on a missing folder
- updated tests, docs, and blank-container integration coverage to exercise the runtime CLI update directory flow directly
0.75 2026-03-31
- added per-command CLI hook directories under `~/.developer-dashboard/cli/<command>` so built-in and custom commands can pre-run executable hook files in sorted filename order and receive the accumulated `RESULT` JSON environment variable
- added directory-backed custom CLI commands via `~/.developer-dashboard/cli/<command>/run` while still skipping non-executable files in the same hook directory
- documented the per-command CLI hook flow in the README, main POD, architecture guide, and testing guide
0.74 2026-03-31
- fixed collector startup recovery so malformed persisted collector `status.json` files are treated as missing state and are overwritten cleanly on the next status write instead of crashing `dashboard restart`
0.73 2026-03-31
- added unit and blank-container integration regressions for mixed collector health so one broken Perl startup collector must not stop a second healthy collector or its green indicator state
- changed the blank-environment tarball install step to run `cpanm` with tests enabled instead of using `--notest`
- documented the collector-failure isolation regression and full tarball-install expectation in the README, main POD, and integration plan
0.72 2026-03-31
- fixed legacy bookmark runtime output so returned hashes and arrays from `CODE*` blocks are dumped into the visible runtime output area while still merging into stash for Template Toolkit rendering
- documented that `CODE1: { a => 1 }` now both feeds `[% stash.a %]` and shows a legacy-style dumped value, while `CODE2: hide print $a` still keeps the printed `1`
0.71 2026-03-31
- fixed bookmark runtime order so `CODE*` blocks run before Template Toolkit rendering and returned hashes can feed `[% stash.* %]` in `HTML:` and `FORM.TT:`
- fixed the `hide` helper so `hide print $a` keeps the printed stdout while suppressing the Perl return value instead of dropping the whole block output
0.70 2026-03-31
- fixed bookmark Template Toolkit rendering so `[% title %]` receives the `TITLE:` value inside `HTML:` and `FORM.TT:` sections
- fixed transient play and view-source URLs so they keep the raw bookmark instruction text instead of baking rendered values such as `[% stash.foo %]` into `1` after a render pass
0.69 2026-03-31
- fixed the browser editor boot path so raw Template Toolkit tokens such as `[% title %]` remain intact in `HTML:` sections after the page JavaScript initializes the editor and syntax highlight overlay
- added a web regression that checks the editor boot script and initial highlight both use the raw bookmark instruction text instead of the already-rendered page body
0.68 2026-03-31
- expanded the README and main Developer::Dashboard POD to explain the product as a developer home, including what the web UI, helper/admin split, collectors, indicators, prompt rendering, CLI helpers, and Docker tooling offer together
- clarified that the browser interface listens on port 7890, exact numeric loopback on 127.0.0.1 is passwordless admin access, and helper accounts are the safe sharing tier for every other browser route
- added richer module-level descriptions across the README, POD, and architecture guide so the Developer::Dashboard::* surfaces describe their role in the overall ecosystem instead of reading like disconnected internals
0.67 2026-03-31
- fixed the main Developer::Dashboard POD to declare `=encoding UTF-8` before the documented Unicode status glyph examples, preventing POD parsers from reporting non-ASCII content before the encoding declaration
0.66 2026-03-31
- hardened the GitHub CPAN release workflow further by preinstalling the full `App::Cmd` prerequisite chain before `Dist::Zilla`, avoiding fragile on-the-fly dependency resolution on fresh Ubuntu runners
- documented that explicit release bootstrap path in the README and release guide after validating it inside a blank Ubuntu 24.04 container
0.65 2026-03-31
- fixed the tarball-facing release metadata test so workflow-specific checks are skipped when `.github` is intentionally absent from the built archive
- hardened the managed-loop sort regression with a short bounded wait so slower build hosts still observe the forked test loops before asserting sort order
- kept the GitHub release workflow bootstrap fix and developer-home documentation refresh in the shipped release after the first 0.64 artifact exposed those tarball-only test gaps
0.64 2026-03-31
- fixed the GitHub release workflow by bootstrapping `App::Cmd` before `Dist::Zilla`, preventing CPAN release jobs from failing on missing `App::Cmd::*` modules during release dependency installation
- rewrote the top-level README and main Developer::Dashboard POD positioning to describe the product as a developer home instead of abstract project-neutral infrastructure
- aligned the architecture guide intro and release documentation with the same developer-focused value statement and release bootstrap guidance
0.63 2026-03-31
- rewrote the top-level README and main Developer::Dashboard POD positioning to describe the product as a developer home instead of abstract project-neutral infrastructure
- aligned the architecture guide intro with the same developer-focused value statement so the documentation speaks to day-to-day usage and purpose
0.62 2026-03-30
- preserved raw Template Toolkit placeholders in editor and source views instead of rewriting `HTML:` sections with rendered output after a POST
- kept render and play flows using prepared TT output while edit and source flows now return the original bookmark text
- added a web regression for `HTML: <h1>[% title %]</h1>` so TT placeholders stay intact through the browser editor round-trip
0.61 2026-03-30
- seeded configured collector indicators before the first run so prompt and page status views show all declared checks immediately as missing until they report
- prefixed collector prompt fragments with explicit success and failure glyphs (`✅` and `🚨`) so collector health is visible without relying on icon meaning alone
- added CLI and unit coverage for seeded collector indicators and prompt status glyph rendering
0.60 2026-03-30
- added collector `code` support so collector jobs can run Perl directly while leaving `command` as shell execution
- kept collector indicators driven by collector exit code for both shell-command and Perl-code collectors
- defaulted collector indicator names and labels from the collector name so `indicator: { "icon": "..." }` is sufficient for common status checks
- documented the two collector execution modes in the README, POD, and release notes
0.59 2026-03-30
- fixed release cleanup drift by removing stale `Developer-Dashboard-*` Dist::Zilla build directories as well as old tarballs before each new build
- updated the blank-environment release helper and release documentation to enforce full build-artifact cleanup before tarball verification
0.58 2026-03-30
- made persisted custom path aliases portable by storing home-relative targets with `$HOME` in global config while expanding them back to concrete local paths when resolved
- kept `dashboard path add <name> <path>` and `dashboard path del <name>` idempotent so existing aliases can be re-added and missing aliases can be removed without error
- fixed named-path resolution so stored `$HOME/...` aliases expand correctly in installed shells and `cdr` continues to work from the tarball artifact
0.55 2026-03-30
- fixed `dashboard docker compose` option parsing so real docker compose flags such as `-d` and `--build` pass through untouched instead of being treated as wrapper options
- changed non-`--dry-run` docker compose execution to `exec` the resolved `docker compose` command directly so normal compose output streams to the terminal instead of being wrapped in dashboard JSON
- auto-loaded isolated `config/docker/*` service folders by default when no service name is passed, while skipping folders that contain `disabled.yml`
- made isolated service folders contribute `development.compose.yml` when present, otherwise `compose.yml`, matching the old one-file-per-service precedence
- documented and enforced release cleanup so old `Developer-Dashboard-*.tar.gz` artifacts are removed before each new build
0.50 2026-03-30
- scanned isolated docker service folders for activation markers when no service name is passed, so plain commands such as `dashboard docker compose config` preload only active isolated overlays before calling docker compose
- kept passthrough service-name inference for commands such as `dashboard docker compose config green` and continued to include isolated `development.compose.yml` overlays automatically for selected services
0.49 2026-03-30
- inferred service names from passthrough docker compose arguments such as `dashboard docker compose config green` before building the final compose command
- included isolated `development.compose.yml` service overlays automatically when a matching isolated service folder is selected
0.48 2026-03-30
- fixed release-metadata coverage so the shipped tarball accepts both repository and Dist::Zilla-generated Makefile.PL quoting for EXE_FILES entries
- versioned the release forward so cpanm validation runs against a tarball whose shipped metadata tests match the built archive format
0.47 2026-03-30
- fixed shell helper path resolution so `cdr` and `which_dir` handle named dashboard paths such as `bookmarks_root` instead of only searching project names
- added CLI smoke coverage for `dashboard shell bash`, `which_dir bookmarks_root`, and `cdr bookmarks_root`
0.46 2026-03-30
- restored old-style isolated docker service discovery so `dashboard docker compose --service <name>` automatically loads `~/.developer-dashboard/config/docker/<name>/compose.yml` when it exists
- added support for `development.compose.yml` alongside isolated service folders when a compose mode is requested
- exported `DDDC` as the global docker config root during compose resolution so compose YAML can keep using `${DDDC}` paths internally
0.45 2026-03-30
- expanded environment variables such as `${DDDC}` and `$DDDC` inside configured docker compose overlay file paths before path resolution
- added docker-compose coverage that proves global config service overlays can resolve through `${DDDC}` into the dashboard config root
0.44 2026-03-30
- fixed root-editor bookmark persistence so posting a legacy instruction document with `BOOKMARK: index` saves the page to the bookmark store and makes `/app/index` resolve immediately
- added a web regression that proves bookmarked root-editor posts are written to storage and load back through the legacy `/app/<name>` route
0.43 2026-03-30
- fixed release-tarball tests so they validate shipped metadata from META.json when dist.ini is intentionally excluded from the archive
- versioned the release forward so the corrected 0.43 tarball no longer fails its own shipped test suite under cpanm
0.42 2026-03-30
- renamed the YAML query command from `yjq` to `pyq` across the dashboard subcommand, standalone executable, tests, and documentation because `yjq` was a typo
- versioned the release forward so the published tarball name matches the corrected command surface
0.41 2026-03-30
- versioned the release forward so the fixed standalone CLI and blank-container integration assets ship under a fresh CPAN artifact instead of reusing the stale 0.40 tarball
- added release metadata coverage that keeps lib/Developer/Dashboard.pm, dist.ini, Changes, Makefile.PL executable shipping, and tarball verification guidance aligned
- documented the explicit tarball verification step with `tar -tzf` and `cpanm /tmp/Developer-Dashboard-0.41.tar.gz -v` before publishing to PAUSE
0.40 2026-03-30
- split `dashboard of`, `dashboard open-file`, `dashboard pjq`, `dashboard yjq`, `dashboard ptomq`, and `dashboard pjp` into standalone installed executables so those common paths no longer load the full dashboard runtime
- made the main `dashboard` script dispatch those built-in commands to sibling executables early for a lighter startup path
- fixed the host-tarball integration harness so it honors a supplied tarball path instead of always rebuilding first
0.39 2026-03-30
- removed `dist.ini` from the Dist::Zilla release tarball so installed machines only receive runtime artifacts and not local release-builder configuration
0.38 2026-03-30
- added built-in `dashboard pjq`, `dashboard yjq`, `dashboard ptomq`, and `dashboard pjp` commands for JSON, YAML, TOML, and Java properties querying
- added smoke coverage for scalar extraction across all four structured-data query commands
- made the structured-data query commands accept file and query arguments in either order and added `$d` as the explicit whole-document selector
0.37 2026-03-30
- added built-in `dashboard of` and `dashboard open-file` commands for direct files, `file:line` targets, recursive pattern search, Perl module lookup, and Java class lookup
- added CLI smoke and unit coverage for open-file shorthand behavior plus module and Java class resolution
0.36 2026-03-30
- added user CLI extension dispatch so unknown top-level `dashboard` subcommands exec matching programs from `~/.developer-dashboard/cli`
- added CLI smoke coverage for argv and stdin passthrough into user-provided dashboard extension executables
0.35 2026-03-30
- removed the stale `DD` prompt fallback so blank installs no longer show an invented status token before any indicators exist
- added prompt coverage that verifies the empty-indicator case still renders the cwd without the old `DD` marker
0.34 2026-03-30
- reset the release history to a fresh baseline for the open-source package
- restored the Dist::Zilla distribution metadata
- kept the current Developer Dashboard runtime, tests, and documentation aligned to version 0.34
