 # Changelog
 
+## [0.7.0] - 2026-03-19
+
+### Added
+
+- **ArgumentRemoval operator** — new mutation operator that removes individual arguments from method calls with 2+ positional args (e.g. `foo(a, b, c)` → `foo(b, c)`, `foo(a, c)`, `foo(a, b)`)
+- **Memory observability** — verbose mode (`-v`) now logs RSS and GC stats (heap_live_slots, allocated, freed) after each phase and per-mutation; includes child_rss and memory delta when available
+- **Peak memory reporting** — text and JSON output include peak memory usage across all mutations
+- **`rake memory:check`** — standalone memory leak detection task for pre-release validation; runs 4 checks (InProcess, Fork, mutation generation, parallel pool) and exits non-zero on regression; configurable via `MEMORY_CHECK_ITERATIONS` and `MEMORY_CHECK_MAX_GROWTH_KB` env vars
+- **Neutral mutation detection** — baseline test suite run detects pre-existing failures; mutations in already-failing code are marked `neutral` instead of `survived`
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Memory leak: source string retention** — `Mutation#strip_sources!` caches the diff then nils out original/mutated source strings after execution, allowing GC to reclaim them
+- **Memory leak: AST node retention** — `Subject#release_node!` releases Prism AST nodes after mutation generation; nodes are no longer retained through the results chain
+- **Memory leak: StringIO buffer growth** — InProcess isolation now redirects output to `/dev/null` instead of accumulating in unbounded StringIO buffers
+- **Memory leak: Marshal payload bloat** — parallel pool workers now serialize only compact result hashes (status, duration, metrics) instead of full MutationResult objects with embedded Mutation/Subject/AST trees
+- **Memory leak: double forking** — parallel mode uses InProcess isolation inside pool workers to avoid fork-inside-fork; sequential mode continues using Fork isolation
+
+## [0.6.0] - 2026-03-17
+
+### Added
+
+- **`--stdin` flag** — read target file paths from stdin (one per line), enabling piped workflows like `git diff --name-only | evilution run --stdin --format json`; supports line-range syntax (e.g. `lib/foo.rb:15-30`); errors if combined with positional file arguments
+- **MCP server** (`evilution mcp`) — Model Context Protocol server for direct AI agent integration via stdio; exposes an `evilution-mutate` tool that accepts target files, options, and returns structured JSON results
+- **MethodCallRemoval operator** — new mutation operator that removes method calls while keeping the receiver (e.g. `obj.foo(x)` → `obj`); catches untested side effects and return values
+

+## MCP Server (AI Agent Integration)
+
+Evilution includes a built-in [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server for direct tool invocation by AI agents (Claude Code, VS Code Copilot, etc.).
+
+### Setup
+
+Create a `.mcp.json` file in your project root:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "evilution": {
+      "type": "stdio",
+      "command": "evilution",
+      "args": ["mcp"],
+      "env": {}
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+If using Bundler, set the command to `bundle` and args to `["exec", "evilution", "mcp"]`.
+
+The server exposes an `evilution-mutate` tool that accepts target files, method targets, spec overrides, parallelism, and timeout options — returning structured JSON results directly to the agent.
+
+> **Note**: `.mcp.json` is gitignored by default since it is a local editor/agent configuration file.

 Note: `--quiet` suppresses all stdout output (including JSON). Use it in CI only when you care about the exit code and do not need JSON output.
 
+## Development
+
+### Memory leak check
+
+Run before releasing to verify no memory regressions:
+
+```bash
+bundle exec rake memory:check
+```
+
+Tests 4 paths (InProcess isolation, Fork isolation, mutation generation + stripping, parallel pool) by running repeated iterations and asserting RSS stays flat. Configurable via environment variables:

+- `MEMORY_CHECK_ITERATIONS` — number of iterations per check (default: 50)
+- `MEMORY_CHECK_MAX_GROWTH_KB` — maximum allowed RSS growth in KB (default: 10240 = 10 MB)

 ## Internals (for context, not for direct use)
 
 1. **Parse** — Prism parses Ruby files into ASTs with exact byte offsets
 2. **Extract** — Methods are identified as mutation subjects
 3. **Mutate** — Operators produce text replacements at precise byte offsets (source-level surgery, no AST unparsing)
-4. **Isolate** — Each mutation runs in a `fork()`-ed child process (no test pollution)
+4. **Isolate** — Default isolation is in-process; `--isolation fork` uses forked child processes. Parallel mode (`--jobs N`) always uses in-process isolation inside pool workers to avoid double forking
 5. **Test** — RSpec executes against the mutated source
-6. **Report** — Results aggregated into text or JSON
+6. **Collect** — Source strings and AST nodes are released after use to minimize memory retention
+7. **Report** — Results aggregated into text or JSON, including peak memory usage
