 # Changelog
 
+## 0.2.20 - 2026-10-22
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Fabric Agent Adapter is pinned at `v0.41.0`** (it was `v0.40.0`): the 2026-10-22 audit closed. Session hooks that
+  survive a refused call, a wrapped `fabric-mcp` and a slow process table; a board responder that recovers a request
+  after lost answers; Python twins of the service kit that lock their stores and refuse what the Node twins refuse;
+  package and estate checks that agree across the kits; safer installers (a copy in the hub is replaced only with
+  `--force`, atomically); nightly CI with the contract at the pin, Python 3.9, Node 18, macOS and Windows. A Linux
+  service on the Node kit needs Node 22. Upgrading notes are in the adapter's CHANGELOG.
+
+## 0.2.19 - 2026-10-21
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Fabric Agent Adapter is pinned at `v0.40.0`** (it was `v0.39.1`): the service kit as layered modules behind
+  compatibility facades, installed into a service with `fabric_kit.py install` and checked with `fabric_kit.py status`;
+  connectors for outbound HTTP and OpenRouter (the agent's own key, a spend ceiling before every attempt, usage
+  receipts, a fallback model); a support-agent recipe. A service that copied one kit file installs the kit as a set now.

+`check` lists every value the scaffold invented as a warning, and `readyForAdmission` stays false
+while one remains: `placeholder:` for a fixed sentinel (the zero content hash, `replace-me`,
+`.invalid`, `urn:fabric:adapter:author`, the generic probe assertion, a generated file still marked
+`fabric-adapter-template` or still in the generic request/summary shape, the generic fixture) and
+`template-default:` for each JSON pointer listed under the manifest's `urn:fabric:adapter:template`
+extension (a legal value the author did not choose, such as `dataClasses: ["public"]`). A warning
+is cleared by replacing the value with an implementation-backed fact and removing the pointer from
