 # Changelog
 
+## v2.4.2
+- Fix replies losing everything written before tool calls. The backend's final `result` event carries only the LAST text segment of a turn, but the stream parser assigned it over the accumulated `assistantText` — so a turn shaped "long explanation → tool calls → short closing line" delivered only the closing line, which read as nonsense without its context. `evt.result` is now a fallback used only when nothing was accumulated (some Cursor turns). Fixed in both `runClaude` and the auxiliary runner.
+
+## v2.4.1
+- Fix Telegram messages occasionally arriving as raw HTML (`<b>`, `<code>` shown literally). Root cause: the Markdown→HTML pass could inject `<i>` tags *inside* model-authored `<code>` spans (two snake_case identifiers on one line pair their underscores as italics), producing unbalanced HTML that Telegram rejects — and the parse-failure fallback then resent the converted body verbatim, tags and all.
+  - `<code>`/`<pre>` spans are now stashed whole (content included) before Markdown conversion, so nothing can be injected inside them.
+  - The italic `_..._` rule only fires at word boundaries, so snake_case identifiers anywhere in the text can no longer pair up.
+  - Model-authored entities (`&lt;`, `&amp;`, `&#…;`) are preserved instead of double-escaped — `<code>&lt;name&gt;</code>` now renders as `<name>` instead of `&lt;name&gt;`.
+  - Last-resort fallback (send + edit) now strips tags and decodes entities (`htmlToPlain`) so a rejected message degrades to clean plain text, never raw markup.
+
+## v2.4.0
+- **FTS5 transcript index (cross-session recall).** Project transcripts are now indexed in SQLite FTS5 via Node's built-in `node:sqlite` (no new dependency), turning "did we discuss X last week?" into a ~50ms ranked lookup instead of a linear grep over JSONL.
+  - `core/transcript-index.js`: WAL-mode DB at `~/.open-claudia/transcripts/index.db` (0600), FTS5 table with porter tokenizer, per-file byte offsets for idempotent incremental indexing. Partial trailing lines wait for the next pass; a replaced/truncated transcript drops its stale rows and reindexes. Fail-soft: without `node:sqlite` every call no-ops and transcript-window remains the path.
+  - **Live indexing**: `appendProjectTranscript` indexes each entry as it lands (text is already redacted at that point), so the index is always current. The CLI also runs a cheap catch-up pass before each query, making it self-healing — no boot-time backfill needed.
+  - **`open-claudia transcript-search <query>`** (alias `ts`): bm25-ranked snippets with role/timestamp/project/line pointers; defaults to the current project's transcript (OC_TRANSCRIPT_PATH), `--all` for every project, `--project <name>` filter, `--raw` for full FTS5 syntax, `--rebuild` to reindex from scratch (5.2k entries across 22 transcripts rebuild in ~0.6s). Natural queries are term-quoted so FTS5 operators can't error.
+  - Recall guidance updated everywhere it lives: transcript pointer note, compaction seed prompt, and CLI help now lead with transcript-search → transcript-window for context.
+
 ## v2.3.0
 - **Learned skills (Hermes-style autonomous skill creation).** The agent now captures battle-tested procedures as reusable skills and the bot surfaces skill activity in chat.
   - **Autonomous capture policy** in the appended system prompt: after a complex task (5+ non-trivial tool calls, dead-ends overcome, or a generalising user correction) the agent writes `~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` — or patches an existing one rather than duplicating — and must announce it in its reply. The Claude Code harness already auto-loads personal skills with progressive disclosure (cheap name+description listing, full body on use), so a captured skill is available in every future session and project for free; the bot only had to build the capture/manage/notify half. Skills are procedures, not memories: no user facts, no secrets, nothing copied from untrusted output.
