+## [1.0.0] - 2026-02-24
+
+### Removed
+- **BREAKING**: Removed `acp_remote_list_files`, `acp_remote_read_file`, and `acp_remote_write_file` tools
+  - All SFTP-based tools had fundamental issues with path expansion (didn't expand `~`)
+  - SFTP implementation was unreliable, complex, and had multiple edge cases
+  - `acp_remote_execute_command` with shell commands is more reliable and flexible
+  - Single tool approach is simpler and more maintainable
+
+### Migration Guide
+
+**Before (v0.x)**:
+```typescript
+// List files
+acp_remote_list_files({ path: "~/project", recursive: false })
+
+// Read file
+acp_remote_read_file({ path: "~/project/package.json" })
+
+// Write file
+acp_remote_write_file({ path: "~/project/file.txt", content: "hello" })
+```
+
+**After (v1.0.0)**:
+```typescript
+// List files - use ls, find, or tree
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "ls -la ~/project" })
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "find ~/project -type f" })
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "tree ~/project" })
+
+// Read file - use cat
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "cat ~/project/package.json" })
+
+// Write file - use echo or tee
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "echo 'hello' > ~/project/file.txt" })
+// Or for multi-line:
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "cat > ~/project/file.txt << 'EOF'\nhello\nworld\nEOF" })
+```
+
+**Benefits of single-tool approach**:
+- ✅ Properly expands `~` and all environment variables
+- ✅ More flexible (use any shell commands and flags)
+- ✅ Can use any installed tools (cat, echo, sed, awk, etc.)
+- ✅ Much simpler codebase (only one tool to maintain)
+- ✅ More reliable (uses shell directly, no SFTP edge cases)
+- ✅ Consistent behavior with interactive SSH sessions
+
+### Technical Details
+- Removed `src/tools/acp-remote-list-files.ts`
+- Removed `src/tools/acp-remote-read-file.ts`
+- Removed `src/tools/acp-remote-write-file.ts`
+- Removed `src/types/file-entry.ts`
+- Removed all SFTP methods from SSHConnectionManager (getSFTP, readFile, writeFile, listFiles)
+- Removed SFTPWrapper import from ssh2
+- Now provides only 1 core tool: execute_command
+- Dramatically simplified codebase and reduced maintenance burden
+
+## [0.7.1] - 2026-02-23
+
+### Fixed
+- **Shell environment not loaded**: Commands now properly source shell configuration files (`~/.zshrc`, `~/.bashrc`, `~/.profile`)
+  - Non-interactive SSH shells don't source config files by default
+  - This caused `$PATH` to be incomplete and environment variables to be missing
+  - Commands like `npm`, `node`, `git` would fail with "command not found" if installed via nvm, homebrew, or other user-space package managers
+  - Solution: Wrap all commands with shell config sourcing: `(source ~/.zshrc || source ~/.bashrc || source ~/.profile || true) && command`
+  - Applies to both `execWithTimeout()` and `execStream()` methods
+  - Gracefully handles missing config files (uses `|| true` to prevent errors)
+
+### Technical Details
+- Added `wrapCommandWithShellInit()` private method to SSHConnectionManager
+- Tries to source config files in order: `.zshrc` → `.bashrc` → `.profile`
+- Ignores errors if files don't exist (2>/dev/null and || true)
+- No breaking changes - transparent to users
+- Fixes common issue where user-installed tools aren't in PATH

+## Common Operations
+
+### List Files
+```bash
+# Basic listing
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "ls -la ~/project" })
+
+# Recursive listing
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "find ~/project -type f" })
+
+# With tree (if installed)
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "tree ~/project" })
+
+# Only directories
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "ls -d */ ~/project" })
+```
+
+### Read Files
+```bash
+# Read entire file
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "cat ~/project/package.json" })
+
+# Read first 100 lines
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "head -n 100 ~/project/large-file.txt" })
+
+# Read last 50 lines
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "tail -n 50 ~/project/log.txt" })
+
+# Search in file
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "grep 'pattern' ~/project/file.txt" })
+```
+
+### Write Files
+```bash
+# Write simple content
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "echo 'hello world' > ~/project/file.txt" })
+
+# Write multi-line content
+acp_remote_execute_command({ 
+  command: "cat > ~/project/file.txt << 'EOF'\nline 1\nline 2\nline 3\nEOF" 
+})
+
+# Append to file
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "echo 'new line' >> ~/project/file.txt" })
+
+# Create directories
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "mkdir -p ~/project/new/nested/dir" })
+```
+
+### File Operations
+```bash
+# Copy files
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "cp ~/source.txt ~/dest.txt" })
+
+# Move files
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "mv ~/old.txt ~/new.txt" })
+
+# Delete files
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "rm ~/file.txt" })
+
+# Change permissions
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "chmod 755 ~/script.sh" })
+```
+
+### Development Operations
+```bash
+# Git operations
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "git status", cwd: "~/project" })
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "git commit -m 'message'", cwd: "~/project" })
+
+# Package management
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "npm install", cwd: "~/project" })
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "npm run build", cwd: "~/project" })
+
+# Process management
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "ps aux | grep node" })
+acp_remote_execute_command({ command: "kill -9 12345" })
+```
+
+## Why Single Tool?
+
+**v1.0.0 removed specialized tools** (`list_files`, `read_file`, `write_file`) in favor of `execute_command`:
+
+✅ **Properly expands `~` and environment variables** - SFTP-based tools didn't
+✅ **Maximum flexibility** - Use any shell command or tool
+✅ **Simpler codebase** - One tool instead of four
+✅ **More reliable** - No SFTP edge cases or limitations
+✅ **Consistent behavior** - Works exactly like interactive SSH
+✅ **Easier to maintain** - Single code path to test and debug
