+### 🔧 Plugin fixes
+
+- **Uninstalling the plugin left projects with no gate at all.** Whether the
+  plugin owned a project's hooks was decided by whether its install directory
+  existed on disk — and that directory survives an uninstall. Every project the
+  plugin had ever run in went on standing its own hooks down for a plugin that
+  was gone. Ownership now comes from Claude Code's install registry, and
+  `verity init` clears the stale marker.
+- **A repository can no longer switch the gate off by shipping a file.**
+  Ownership was claimed by `.verity/.plugin-active`, a file inside the project,
+  and one naming any directory that happened to exist disabled every hook there.
+  An install Claude Code cannot vouch for is ignored.
+- **A plugin installed from a local marketplace directory is recognised.**
+  Claude Code runs a marketplace served from a directory out of that directory
+  while recording the cache copy it made, so the two paths disagreed and a live,
+  gating install read as unverified — every reporter then said "no analysis
+  moment is active" about a project the plugin was gating on every turn.
+- **`verity init` knows the plugin is here, and says so before it acts.** It
+  does two opposite things depending on that answer — write this project's own
+  hooks, or leave them to the plugin — and it used to choose silently. It now
+  names the install it found and the division of labour, and `--no-plugin`
+  overrules it. It detects a plugin in a project the plugin has never set up,
+  which is the ordinary case for someone whose first Verity install *is* the
+  plugin.
+
+
+## [0.32.1] — 2026-09-09
+
+**The gate said it was on while it wasn't.** Every fix here is the same failure
+seen from a different side: Verity reported itself wired and watching, and the
+commit went through unreviewed. Two of them were shipped by 0.32.0 itself.
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @codacy/verity-cli    # binary only — no re-run of init needed
+```
+
+### 🔒 The gate is on when it says it is
+
+- **Typing `2,3` at the setup question left you with no git gate.** The review
+  moments used to be answered by number — `2,3` *was* the answer — and 0.32.0's
+  arrow-key rewrite kept the digit shortcut on the single-select question and
+  lost it on this one. A digit moved the cursor without ticking anything, the
+  comma was ignored, and Enter then confirmed the untouched default. You got
+  `stop` alone: no pre-commit hook was wired, and the git gate silently did not
+  exist. Reported from the field as *"pre-commit hooks are not added any more"*.
+  A digit toggles again, and the prompt's own legend now names the keys it
+  accepts.
+- **`git add … && git commit` was never reviewed.** The hook runs *before* the
+  command, so the index it inspected had not had the `add` applied yet: nothing
+  staged, and the gate took its "nothing to review" exit — a silent allow, with
+  no trace that a commit had gone unreviewed. It is the shape an agent writes by
+  default, so it was most of the commit gate's coverage. The gate now works out
+  what the command is about to stage, using git's own pathspec matching, and
+  understands `git commit -a` and `git commit <paths>`. Where it genuinely
+  cannot — a pathspec the shell expands before git sees it, an interactive
+  `git add -p` — it says so and lets the commit through **loudly**, rather than
+  reviewing a set it guessed at.
+- **A verdict the CLI does not understand is no longer drawn as a pass.** An
+  absent or unrecognised gate decision — a truncated response, a proxy error
+  page — reached the `✓ PASS` line. It is reported as unreviewed.
+- **`verity hooks install --moments <typo>` no longer removes every gate.**
+  Unrecognised moments were dropped in silence, so a single misspelling
+  reconciled the hooks down to nothing and printed success. It is an error now;
+  `--moments none` is still the way to turn them off on purpose.
+- **`verity init` no longer overwrites the moments you chose.** Re-running init
+  to heal a config replaced an answer you had set with `verity config
+  git-moments`, substituting the shipped default. Your answer is now recorded
+  as yours, kept, and named when init keeps it.
+- **A linked worktree gates what the main checkout gates.** `.verity/` is
+  gitignored, so a fresh `git worktree add` had no configuration of its own and
+  the guard there gated nothing while `verity hooks check` reported it wired. A
+  worktree's own `.verity/config.json` still wins when it has one — including an
+  explicit `none` — and `hooks check` names the file it inherited from.
+- **`verity status`, `verity doctor` and `verity hooks check` answer from one
+  place.** They could disagree about whether a hook was wired, and two of them
+  were wrong from a subdirectory.
+
+### 🔧 Fixed
+
+- `verity status --limit` rejects a value that is not a number instead of
+  quietly ignoring it.
+
+### Migrating
+
+Upgrading the binary is enough for six of the seven — but not for the moments
+question. If you set this project up **on 0.32.0** and answered that question by
+typing numbers, the gates you asked for were never recorded, and a new binary
+cannot know what you meant. Check and repair in one command each:
+
+```bash
+verity status                              # Moments: is pre-commit / pre-push listed?
+verity config git-moments commit,push      # set what you meant; init now keeps it
+```
+
+Projects set up before 0.32.0, or set up with the arrow keys, are unaffected.
+
+
+## [0.32.0] — 2026-09-08
+
+**Setup takes seconds, not minutes — and the reviewer sees more than the diff.**
+Installing Verity used to be two steps: `verity init`, then a Claude Code
+session for `/verity-setup` to write your Standard, which took minutes and was
+the step people skipped. It is now one command that takes seconds: `init`
+builds the Standard from your codebase, or downloads the one your team already
+registered. On the other side, the reviewer stops judging a change in a vacuum:
+it sees the callers, tests and contracts around what you touched, and it can
+only block on things it actually has evidence for. This entry folds in
+0.31.2 and 0.31.4, which shipped without their own headings; 0.31.3 and 0.31.1
+are below.
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @codacy/verity-cli
+verity init   # re-run in existing projects: heals the config, records your answers
+```
+
+### ⚡ One command, no second step
+
+- **`verity init` finishes the whole job.** It used to stop halfway and hand you
+  off to `/verity-setup` in Claude Code to synthesize the Standard — a model
+  turn that took minutes, needed a session open, and was easy to skip. `init`
+  now does it on its own, in seconds, and the gate is live on your next session.
+  `/verity-setup` still exists but is optional: it is for adding
+  project-specific rules on top, not for getting started.
+- **If your team already has a Standard, it comes down from the cloud.** Any
+  repository registered before — by a teammate, by you on another machine, by
+  CI — already has its Standard on Verity, and `init` fetches it and writes the
+  team's configuration to disk (when you are signed in). Cloning a repo that
+  already uses Verity is: install, `init`, done.

-### 🔒 Fixed — four ways the gate could be off while reporting itself on
+### 🚪 A project that was never set up is left alone
+
+Every hook now asks the same question the same way. `verity analyze` used to run
+in a project that had never seen `verity init`, create `.verity/` there, and then —
+with no baseline to compare against — review nothing. It now stands down like the
+other hooks always have, so installing Verity no longer scatters state through
+directories you merely opened. On the first session in such a project, Claude is
+told once that the gate is off here and can offer to run `verity init`. Works
+correctly from linked git worktrees.
+
+### 🔭 The reviewer sees the neighborhood
+
+Measured on real commits: every change had at least one caller outside the
+diff (median five), and more than half had a test referencing a changed symbol.
+Verity sent none of it. Now it does — server-side, so it reached every
+installed CLI on deploy day:
+
+- **Context is what the agent actually read.** The files sent alongside your
+  change are the ones the agent opened this task — not the ten most recently
+  touched files in the repo, which is what it was.
+- **Call sites of changed symbols**, one line each — including callers of a
+  function whose body you edited but whose name isn't in the diff.
+- **At commit and push, full excerpts.** Contracts first (interfaces your change
+  implements), then tests, then callers, with real line numbers so the reviewer
+  can cite them.
+- **Findings stay anchored on your change.** A problem your edit causes at a
+  call site is reported against the file you changed. A pre-existing problem in
+  a file Verity only glanced at is out of scope and cannot block you.
+- **Every run says whether this fired**, and why not when it didn't (no tool, no
+  diff, no symbols, no sites, timeout) — in the evidence log and the guard's
+  coverage block. "Never fires" and "not deployed" can no longer look the same.
+- Fixed on the way: the Stop-hook review was running at half its intended file
+  budget (20 files, not 40), and context files reached the reviewer without the
+  line numbers the prompt promised.
+
+### ⚖️ The gate only blocks on evidence it has
+
+Raised from a customer's production runs: 134 of 655 runs blocked, and only a
+third of those blocks cited a line of production source. Two things decide
+whether a finding blocks — how bad *this instance* is, and what *kind* of rule
+it is — and both were owned by the wrong party.
+
+- **Severity is the reviewer's.** It used to be overwritten with the Standard's
+  per-pattern constant, so a finding the reviewer rated `low` (*"appears to be a
+  fixture value"*) blocked as `critical`. The reviewer's judgement now stands.
+- **Category comes from your Standard.** It used to be a label the model
+  re-picked every run — the same pattern landed as `security` on one run and
+  `quality` on the next, and at `high` that label *is* the block. It is now
+  derived from where the pattern sits in your Standard. Note the direction: for
+  patterns you declared under security, every high instance now blocks where the
+  coin flip previously let some through.
+- **A secrets finding needs a witness.** `no-hardcoded-secrets` blocks only when
+  a static tool saw it too, not on the model's word alone.
+- **`exclude_paths` in your Standard actually excludes now.** It was advertised
+  and read by nothing.
+
+### 🔧 Fixed
+
+- **An upgrade no longer removes the gates you chose.** `.verity/setup.json` only
+  exists from this release, so every project configured before it had no recorded
+  answer — including everyone who picked commit/push gates through the old
