 ## Unreleased
 
+## 0.6.0 - 2026-07-03
+
+### Added
+
+- Added result-state support to `row()` and `cli_style_row`, so label/value rows can render failed, warning, success, or other status cues while keeping column alignment.
+- Added the `span()` inline emphasis primitive and `cli_style_span` Bash helper for highlighting commands, files, or values inside existing line renderers such as `hint()`.
+- Added `span` support to `cli-style render` and the public JavaScript export.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Reworked the README around integration paths, available renderers, primitive data shapes, patterns, options, profiles, result types, and gallery commands.

+## Available renderers
+
+Renderer names are stable for `cli-style render`, `cli_style_render`, and Python `render()`. JavaScript uses camel-case function names.

+
+Python uses `render("<renderer>", data, ...)` for every renderer.
+
+## Primitive data shapes
+
+Use these shapes with `cli-style render`, `cli_style_render`, or Python `render()`. JavaScript callers pass the listed function arguments directly.
+
+### `status`
+
+```json
+{
+	"type": "success",
+	"label": "Build passed",
+	"detail": "184 tests"
+}
+```
+
+- `type`: one of the result types listed below
+- `label`: optional label override
+- `detail`: optional text after the label
+
+### `row`
+
+```json
+{
+	"label": "Bundle",
+	"value": "is 22.3 KB, above the 12.0 KB budget",
+	"result": "failed",
+	"labelWidth": 8
+}
+```
+
+- `label`: left-hand label
+- `value`: right-hand value
+- `result`: optional result type for a symbol and tone
+- `labelWidth`: optional minimum label width
+- `labelColour`, `valueColour`, `separator`: optional presentation overrides
+
+### `span`
+
+```json
+{
+	"value": "npm run docs:readme",
+	"tone": "info"
+}
+```
+
+- `value`: inline text to emphasise
+- `tone`: optional tone, defaulting to `info`
+- `weight`: optional ANSI style, defaulting to `bold`
+
+### `hint`
+
+```json
+{
+	"message": "Run npm run docs:readme before release"
+}
+```
+
+Pre-render a `span` when only part of the hint needs emphasis.

+
+For visual examples, run `cli-style gallery --section primitives`.

+## Patterns
+
+Patterns are built-in composite renderers for common report shapes. They use the same lower-level primitives internally, but accept structured objects so callers do not need to assemble panels, statuses, tables, and rows by hand.

+| `task-summary`        | `taskSummary(summary, options)`             | Completed and remaining task summary. | `title`, `task`, `result`, `summary`, `completed`, `remaining`                       |
+| `agent-transcript`    | `agentTranscript(transcript, options)`      | User, agent, and tool transcript.     | `title`, `entries`                                                                   |

+
+## Reporter
+
+Use a reporter when a JavaScript script needs grouped output built over time.
+
+```js
+import { createReporter } from "@lewishowles/cli-style";
+
+const reporter = createReporter({
+	colour: false,
+});
+
+reporter.divider("Project setup", "Claude + Codex");
+reporter.group(
+	"Agent scripts",
+	[
+		{
+			label: "project-diagnostics.py",
+			result: "unchanged",
+		},
+		{
+			label: "repo-context.py",
+			result: "unchanged",
+		},
+	],
+	{
+		summary: "2 already linked",
+	},
+);
+reporter.status("success", "Done.");
+
+console.log(reporter.render());
+```
+
+Use `reporter.divider()` for major phases. Use `reporter.section()` for a normal `info` status row inside a phase. Panels are for framed content blocks, not headings.
+
+Groups can include verbose detail rows when a caller opts in:
+
+```js
+const reporter = createReporter({
+	verbose: process.env.AGENTS_VERBOSE === "1",
+});
+```
+
+## Options and flags
+
+### JavaScript options
+
+Most renderers accept the same output options:
+
+| Option    | Purpose                                                                   |
+| --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `profile` | Output profile: `human`, `agent`, `diagnostic`, `ci`, `plain`, or `json`. |
+| `colour`  | Whether ANSI colour should be applied.                                    |
+| `unicode` | Whether Unicode symbols should be used.                                   |
+| `width`   | Available output width for renderers that adapt layout.                   |
+
+Use `createCliStyle()` to resolve these options from `argv`, `env`, `stdout`, CI, TTY, `NO_COLOR`, and terminal capability.
+
+### CLI and Bash flags
+
+| Flag                         | Purpose                                |
+| ---------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
+| `--profile <name>`           | Render with a named profile.           |
+| `--plain`                    | Disable colour and Unicode decoration. |
+| `--no-colour` / `--no-color` | Disable ANSI colour.                   |
+| `--no-unicode`               | Use ASCII symbols.                     |
+| `--width <columns>`          | Override detected output width.        |
+
+`cli-style render` rejects `--json`. JSON profile behaviour is for library calls and machine-readable commands.
+
+### Python options
+
+| Argument     | Purpose                                          |
+| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------ |
+| `profile`    | Render with a named profile.                     |
+| `width`      | Override detected output width.                  |
+| `plain`      | Disable colour and Unicode decoration.           |
+| `no_colour`  | Disable ANSI colour.                             |
+| `no_unicode` | Use ASCII symbols.                               |
+| `binary`     | Path or command name for the `cli-style` binary. |
+| `extra_args` | Extra CLI arguments to pass through.             |
