+- Fixes: Vue.js integration, Lynx adapter, Visual Editor on Windows
+
+---
+
+## New: Test missing translations
+
+Quickly audit your project to find which keys/locales are missing.
+
+```bash
+npx intlayer content test
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```bash
+pnpm intlayer content test
+Missing translations:
+ - blog-data       - Japanese (ja), Korean (ko), Chinese (zh), German (de), Italian (it) - src/components/BlogPage/blogData.content.ts
+ - demo-page       - French (fr), Italian (it)                                         - src/components/DemoPage/demo.content.ts
+ - locale-switcher - Italian (it), Portuguese (pt)                                       - src/components/LocaleSwitcher/localeSwitcher.content.ts
+Locales: English (en), Russian (ru), Japanese (ja), French (fr), Korean (ko), Chinese (zh), Spanish (es), German (de), Arabic (ar), Italian (it), British English (en-GB), Portuguese (pt), Hindi (hi)
+Required locales: English (en)
+Missing locales: Japanese (ja), Korean (ko), Chinese (zh), German (de), Italian (it), French (fr), Portuguese (pt)
+Missing required locales: -
+Total missing locales: 7
+Total missing required locales: 0
+```
+
+See more options in the CLI docs: [CLI reference](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/intlayer_cli.md) → "Test missing translations". As well as the [Testing](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/testing.md) guide.
+
+---
+
+## New: Global autoFill to complete missing translations
+
+You can now enable auto‑fill globally so any dictionary with missing translations gets completed automatically.
+
+```ts fileName="intlayer.config.ts"
+import { type IntlayerConfig, Locales } from "intlayer";
+
+const config: IntlayerConfig = {
+  internationalization: {
+    locales: [Locales.ENGLISH, Locales.FRENCH, Locales.SPANISH],
+    defaultLocale: Locales.ENGLISH,
+    requiredLocales: [Locales.ENGLISH, Locales.FRENCH],
+  },
+  content: {
+    // Auto-generate missing translations for all dictionaries
+    autoFill: "./{{fileName}}.content.ts",
+    //
+    // autoFill: "/messages/{{locale}}/{{key}}/{{fileName}}.content.json",
+    //
+    // autoFill: true, // auto-generate missing translations for all dictionaries like using "./{{fileName}}.content.json"
+    //
+    // autoFill: {
+    //   en: "./{{fileName}}.en.content.json",
+    //   fr: "./{{fileName}}.fr.content.json",
+    //   es: "./{{fileName}}.es.content.json",
+    // },
+  },
+};
+
+export default config;
+```
+
+Auto-fill your missing translations using the `npx intlayer fill` command.
+
+You can still fine‑tune per dictionary using the `autoFill` field in content files. See the full reference in [Auto-fill](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/autoFill.md) and [Content file reference](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/dictionary/content_file.md).
+
+---
+
+## Fill command: safer defaults
+
+The fill command now, by default, only fills missing translations and skips existing content.
+
+```bash
+npx intlayer fill
+```
+
+```bash
+Affected dictionary keys for processing: access-key-creation-form-schema, doc-search-metadata, doc-search-page
+  - [access-key-creation-form-schema]      Dictionary has no file path. Skipping.
+  - [access-key-creation-form-schema]      Processing content declaration: src/components/Dashboard/ProjectForm/AccessKey/useAccessKeyCreationFormSchema.content.ts
+  - [access-key-creation-form-schema]      No locales to fill - Skipping dictionary
+  - [doc-search-metadata]                  Dictionary has no file path. Skipping.
+  - [doc-search-metadata]                  Processing content declaration: src/app/[locale]/(docs)/doc/search/metadata.content.ts
+  - [doc-search-metadata]                  No locales to fill - Skipping dictionary
+  - [doc-search-page]                      Dictionary has no file path. Skipping.
+  - [doc-search-page]                      Processing content declaration: src/app/[locale]/(docs)/doc/search/page.content.ts
+  - [doc-search-page]                     [Russian (ru)]                   Preparing translation for dictionary from English (en) to Russian (ru)
+[intlayer]  Applied Prettier formatting to src/app/[locale]/(docs)/doc/search/page.content.ts
+  - [doc-search-page]                      Content declaration written to src/app/[locale]/(docs)/doc/search/page.content.ts
+```
+
+CI examples are available in [CI/CD](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/CI_CD.md).
+
+---
+
+## Updated VS Code extension
+
+The extension now includes a dedicated Intlayer tab in the Activity Bar and several workflow improvements:
+
+- Intlayer Activity Bar with two views:
+  - Search webview for live dictionary/content search
+  - Dictionaries tree listing environments, dictionaries, and contributing files
+- Toolbar on Dictionaries view: Build, Pull, Push, Fill, Refresh, Test, Create Dictionary File
+- Context menus: Pull/Push on dictionaries; Fill on files
+- Auto‑reveal: the current editor file is highlighted in the Dictionaries tree when applicable
+- New commands available from the Command Palette: Fill Dictionaries and Test Dictionaries
+
+See details in the [Official VS Code Extension](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/vs_code_extension.md) documentation.
+
+---
+
+## Performance: 10× faster
+
+- Parallel resolution of local and remote dictionaries
+- Remote dictionaries are cached to avoid re‑fetching at app startup
+
+```bash
+npx intlayer build
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```bash
+[intlayer]  Preparing Intlayer (v6.0.1)
+[intlayer]  Dictionaries:
+[intlayer]  ✓ Local content: 163/163
+[intlayer]  ✓ Remote content: 100/100

+[intlayer]   - blog-nav-list                        [local: ✔ built] [distant: ✔ imported]
+[intlayer]   - blog-page                                             [distant: ✔ fetched]
+[intlayer]   - blog-search-page                     [local: ✔ built] [distant: ✔ imported]
+...
+[intlayer]  Content loaded  (Total: 8401ms - Local: 4050ms - Remote: 4222ms)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Logging improvements
+
+The logging system has been improved to provide more detailed information about what happens during build and runtime transformations.
+
+> Enable verbose logs to better understand what happens during build and runtime transformations.
+
+```ts fileName="intlayer.config.ts"
+export default {
+  log: {
+    mode: "verbose", // options: "default" | "verbose" | "disabled"
+  },
+};
+```
+
+See [Configuration](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/configuration.md) for all logging options.
+
+---
+
+## Stronger validation
+
+Dictionary processing now performs more robust validation. When a dictionary fails to process, Intlayer avoids breaking your application and surfaces actionable errors.
+
+---
+
+## Live updates with CMS (Production‑safe)
+
+Serve live content updates (e.g., editorial updates) in production without rebuilding your application.
+
+1. Enable live import mode:
+
+```ts fileName="intlayer.config.ts"
+import { type IntlayerConfig } from "intlayer";
+
+const config: IntlayerConfig = {
+  build: {
+    importMode: "live", // "static" | "dynamic" | "live"
+  },
+  editor: {
+    liveSync: true, // enable live sync server side
+  },
+};
+
+export default config;
+```
+
+2. Run your app and live process side‑by‑side:
+
+```bash
+npx intlayer live --process 'vite preview'
+```
+
+Notes:
+
+- Only dictionaries flagged to use live mode will be fetched live. Others are optimized for performance.
+- Falls back to dynamic import if the live API isn’t reachable.
+
+See [CMS and Live Sync](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/intlayer_CMS.md) and [Configuration](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/configuration.md) for complete guidance.
+
+---
+
+## Migration notes
+
+- Removed: `dictionaryOutput` (previously `i18next` or `next-intl`). This will come back as pluggable adapters in future versions. Remove the field from your config.
+- Related removal: `i18nextResourcesDir` (see `doc/configuration` changelog).
+- Prefer the new global `content.autoFill` option to generate missing translations at scale.
+- Use `npx intlayer content test` to gate PRs on missing translations.
+- For verbose diagnostics, set `log.mode = 'verbose'`.
+
+---
+
+## Fixes
+
+- Vue.js integration stability
+- Lynx adapter improvements
+- Visual Editor on Windows

+- **Dictionaries**: A tree view of your environments/projects, dictionary keys, and the files contributing entries. You can:
+  - Click a file to open it in the editor.
+  - Use the toolbar to run actions: Build, Pull, Push, Fill, Refresh, Test, and Create Dictionary File.
+  - Use the context menu for item‑specific actions:
+    - On a dictionary: Pull or Push
+    - On a file: Fill Dictionary
+  - When you switch editors, the tree will reveal the matching file if it belongs to a dictionary.
