+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [0.4.9] - 2026-09-21
+
+### Changed
+- `sites.list` now marks whether each returned property identifier matches the URL-prefix / `sc-domain:` forms currently documented by the Search Console API, and the docs explicitly avoid guessing an undocumented API identifier for Search Console platform properties.
+
+### Fixed
+- `analytics.query` now exposes `position_supported: false` plus an explicit note for Google Discover responses so agents do not interpret the generic row `position` field as a supported Discover metric.

 | **`server.capabilities`** | Read | List every tool this server exposes and report whether your Google connection is currently authenticated (`connected` / `not_connected`). Takes no arguments — a good first call for discovery. |
 | **`sites.list`** | Read | List the Search Console properties the connected Google account can access (`siteUrl`, `permissionLevel`). |
 | **`sites.get`** | Read | Retrieve one exact Search Console property and the connected account's permission level for it. |
-| **`analytics.query`** | Read | Impressions, clicks, CTR, and average position over a date range, with dimensions, filters, safe pagination, and selectable search type. Pass `dimensions: []` for true site totals; Google's aggregate row may omit `keys`. Search Analytics does not guarantee every data row and can return only top rows, so exhausting local pagination is not proof that the provider dataset is exhaustive. |

 | **`urls.inspect_many`** | Read | Inspect Google's indexed versions of up to 10 URLs sequentially in one call. Each URL still consumes one Google URL Inspection request and one unit of the server's shared inspection safety budget; this does not run live URL tests. |

 | **`sitemaps.submit`** / **`sitemaps.delete`** | Write | Submit or remove a sitemap. |

+> **Platform properties.** Search Console now supports platform properties for social/video accounts such as Instagram, TikTok, X, and YouTube in its UI. Google's current Search Console API documentation still defines `siteUrl` using URL-prefix and `sc-domain:` website-property forms and does not publish a platform-property API identifier contract. `sites.list` therefore preserves every identifier Google returns and marks whether it matches the documented API grammar; the other tools deliberately reject undocumented forms instead of inventing an identifier. Use the Search Console UI/export for a platform property until Google documents API support.
+
 Read-write mode requests the Google Search Console read-write and Indexing API scopes. Read-only mode requests only `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/webmasters.readonly` (plus `openid` and `email`) and does not register the five write tools. Read-write remains the default so existing deployments retain their current behavior; see [SETUP.md](SETUP.md) to select a mode before connecting users.
 
 Large analytics responses are bounded at the MCP boundary instead of being generated and then discarded by clients with structured-content limits. List-style tools expose `start_row` / `next_start_row` where applicable; ranked analytical tools expose `limit`, `start_row`, and `result_page` metadata including `has_more`, `truncated`, and `byte_limit_reached`. Continue paging while `has_more` is true rather than assuming one response is complete.
