 # Changelog
 
+## 6.0.0
+
+The server moves to Apache-2.0, and the live-preview carrier stops living
+in your project, reports what it refused, and rides an engine that tells
+you when the browser turned your extension away.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **License: MIT is now Apache-2.0.** Everything published up to and
+  including 5.6.1 was released under MIT and stays MIT forever; you keep
+  those rights on those versions. From 6.0.0 forward the license is
+  Apache-2.0, which adds an express patent grant and requires anyone
+  shipping a modified copy to state that they changed the files. For almost
+  every user this changes nothing about what you are allowed to do.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The live-preview carrier is no longer a permanent resident of the
+  project. `extension_stop` removes it, `extension_build` removes it
+  before the build runs (and refuses to call a build clean if it ever
+  finds the carrier in `dist/`), and `extension_dev carrier: true` adds
+  it to `.gitignore` so the first `git add -A` cannot vendor it. Every
+  path is marker-guarded: a directory the tool did not place is reported,
+  never removed.
+- `extension_open` no longer navigates away whatever page the caller was
+  watching. It reuses only a disposable tab (blank, new-tab page, or a
+  tab already on the same extension origin) and otherwise opens a new
+  background tab, so a trace page keeps its carrier registration.
+- `extension_open` treats a client-side redirect as a landing instead of
+  reporting `NavigateFailed`, and reports where the page went. A failed
+  `http(s)` navigation no longer sends the caller off to debug their own
+  bundle.
+- `extension_open` confirms with the browser that a UI surface actually
+  opened. When the engine reports the surface opened and no document
+  target appears, the result says so (`SurfaceDidNotOpen`) and points at
+  `asTab: true`, instead of handing back a green answer for a surface
+  that is not there.
+
+- The bundled carrier payload answers with its real results. Every
+  backend method returns the promise it was given instead of a shape,
+  so a `chrome.*` call that rejects reaches the caller as a failure;
+  `executeScript` refuses `func`/`code` forms it cannot honor, offscreen
+  close is verified, and `downloads.erase` is implemented. A refusal now
+  rides a `refused` disposition from the refusal site through the carrier
+  into the trace, so refused calls stop being badged as real work and
+  stop earning coverage. Storage rows correlate on a canonical key (one
+  call, one row), tab facts survive both directions, and the event port
+  replays its backlog to a page that connects late.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The engine this server spawns when a project has no local install is
+  pinned to `4.0.16-canary.1784889479.74e12044`. Two behaviors are worth
+  the prerelease: `EXTENSION_HEADLESS` is finally honored, so an agent
+  driving `extension_dev` cannot open a window on the operator's screen,
+  and a browser refusing to load the extension is reported as an error
+  instead of a session that claims to be ready. `extension_wait` already
+  surfaces both through the ready contract. This pin returns to a stable
+  release once 4.0.16 ships. A project with its own `extension` install
+  is unaffected, and `EXTENSION_MCP_CLI_VERSION` still overrides.
+- `extension_deploy` and `extension_store_status` advertise `safari`
+  again: the platform's Safari/App Store submission lane is now enabled
+  for every project, so the store enum and the per-store status report
+  treat it like chrome, firefox, and edge.
+- `extension_list_templates` and `extension_get_template_source` resolve
+  the template catalog and sources from the pinned, content-addressed
+  corpus served at `media.extension.land`, with a commit-pinned GitHub
+  raw fallback. Both tools previously read a floating `nightly`/`main`
+  ref, so two runs could disagree; they now resolve one immutable
+  release whose files are sha256-verified at the origin.
+- Console and dashboard links come from a shared URL contract and are
+  environment aware, so a local or development run no longer hands back
+  hardcoded production console URLs.
+
+### Added
+
+- `extension_dev` accepts `carrier: true` (Chromium-family sessions): it
+  places the bundled Extension.dev Live Preview carrier in the project's
+  `./extensions` folder, which Extension.js auto-loads as a companion
+  beside the extension under development. Pages the carrier allowlists
+  (inspect.extension.dev, localhost) can then pair with the live session
+  and stream its real-lane chrome.* session trace over the carrier's
+  event port. The copy is marker-guarded: an existing unmanaged
+  `extensions/extension-dev-live-preview` directory is never overwritten,
+  and the tool result reports what happened either way. The prebuilt
+  payload ships in the package under `extensions/live-preview`.

+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and

+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.

+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
