+## [0.4.0] - 2026-09-12
+
+### Changed
+
+- Upgraded the Rust `maxminddb` dependency from 0.30.0 to 0.32.0, adding
+  resource limits for decoding records and metadata, fixing overflowing
+  extended data types, and improving record decoding, search-tree traversal,
+  and selective path lookups.
+- Databases that exceed the new decoding limits now raise the same bad-data
+  error as other corrupt databases, including databases that previously
+  decoded successfully. These limits apply to lookups, batches, compiled
+  paths, and network iteration, as well as metadata during opens and reloads.
+- Refreshed Rust and npm development dependencies.
+
+### Performance
+
+- Bind single-record `get()` calls to a validated native reader once, avoiding
+  repeated receiver validation and generic borrow tracking in the updated
+  N-API bindings. Bound calls retain the reader, use its existing reentrancy
+  protection, and follow loads and reloads.
+
+### Development
+
+- Added regression coverage for decoding limits, records at the supported
+  limits, empty metadata containers, malformed database fixtures, and
+  overflowing extended data types.
+- Added coverage ensuring failed resource-limited reloads preserve the
+  existing reader and its cached records.
+
+## [0.3.1] - 2026-07-19
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Updated the packed-package smoke test to accept the npm 12
+  `npm pack --json` output format, allowing trusted publishing validation to
+  complete with the current npm release.
+
+## [0.3.0] - 2026-07-19
+
+### Added
+
+- Added `reloadAsync()` to open and validate replacement databases without
+  blocking the JavaScript event loop.
+- Added `getPaths()` and `getManyPaths()` for decoding multiple selected values
+  with one database lookup per IP.
+- Added `networksPath()` and `withinPath()` for selectively decoding one value
+  while iterating database networks.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Numeric path components now reject fractional, non-finite, and unsafe
+  JavaScript numbers instead of relying on native integer coercion.
+- Updated the Rust `maxminddb` dependency to 0.30.0, inheriting safer corrupt
+  database traversal and faster path and record decoding.
+- Invalid UTF-8 in decoded MMDB string values and map keys now follows Node's
+  native conversion behavior and is represented with replacement characters.
+- `MODE_BUFFER` now uses the same native owned-memory reader as `MODE_MEMORY`;
+  the constant remains available as a compatibility alias.
+- Network iterators now close their native cursor when a `for...of` loop exits
+  early.
+- Compiled `PathLookup` instances can be closed explicitly, release their
+  native path automatically after collection, and survive watched reader swaps.
+- Consolidated mutable native reader state behind one runtime borrow, keeping
+  reentrant JavaScript access safe without per-field borrow checks.
+- Stopped exposing undocumented native reader constructors and helpers from the
+  JavaScript entry point, leaving `nativeVersion()` as the supported diagnostic.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Preserved complete invalid IP values in errors when an overlong string crosses
+  the native UTF-8 buffer boundary at a multibyte character.
+
+### Performance
+
+- Moved asynchronous reload work, including memory-mapped reloads triggered by
+  file watchers, off the JavaScript event loop.
+- Added multi-field projections that reuse one search-tree lookup per IP,
+  improving batch throughput when several fields are needed without decoding
+  the full record.
+- Moved gzip input detection into the native readers, checking owned-file
+  prefixes before allocating their buffers and eliminating an extra
+  asynchronous file open, read, and close during path-based opens.
+- Decode MMDB strings and map keys directly from raw bytes into JavaScript
+  strings, avoiding redundant UTF-8 decoding in Rust and Node.
+- Reduced lookup and batch allocation by reading IP strings directly from V8
+  and constructing batch result arrays in place.
+- Reuse records with shared data offsets within cached network cursor pages,
+  avoiding repeated decoding during large network walks.
+- Format network strings on the stack and construct network-result pairs in
+  place, avoiding two heap allocations per iterated network.
+- Construct decoded arrays and objects in a single pass and carry JavaScript
+  decode context through nested values, reducing allocations and TLS access.
+- Use a protected LRU segment for caches up to 10,000 records, retaining
+  frequently reused records during broad scans without increasing capacity.
+- Open owned-memory file modes on a worker thread and read directly into Rust
+  memory, avoiding a full intermediate Node `Buffer` and event-loop blocking.
+- Store common compiled paths inline, avoiding a heap allocation on each hot
+  path lookup.
+- Return native network pages directly when no buffered records remain,
+  avoiding an extra JavaScript array allocation and copy per page.
+- Enable thin link-time optimization for release builds, reducing the native
+  binary size and allowing optimization across crate boundaries.
+
+### Development
+
+- Corrected projection benchmark found counts to exclude rows containing only
+  missing values.
+- Added focused unit coverage for the custom IPv4 parser, IPv4 prefix
+  translation, signed path indexes, and inline path storage boundary.
+- Removed the unused eager native network collector; the public API continues
+  to use the lower-memory native cursor implementation.
