+## v1.4.0 -- Delete Tools & Error Hardening (2026-04-15)
+
+### Added
+- **`delete_task` tool** -- delete a Jira issue with ownership enforcement (creator only) and explicit user approval guard.
+- **`delete_comment` tool** -- delete a comment with ownership enforcement (author only) and explicit user approval guard.
+- **Markdown table support in ADF** -- `markdownToAdf()` now converts markdown tables to ADF table nodes.
+
+### Changed
+- **Narrowed cache cleanup catch blocks** -- `deleteTask()` and `logTime()` now catch only `TaskNotFoundError` and `CacheNotFoundError` instead of swallowing all exceptions. Unexpected I/O or corruption errors propagate.
+
+### Fixed
+- **Silent cache errors** -- cache I/O failures during post-delete and post-worklog cleanup were silently ignored, leaving stale entries without any signal.
+
+## v1.3.0 -- File-Backed Templates & Approval Hooks (2026-04-15)
+
+### Added
+- **File-backed template catalog** -- ship built-in comment and single-task templates as physical markdown files under `templates-system/`.
+- **Template management CLI** -- add `jira-mcp template add/list/show/remove` for global user overrides in `~/.softspark/jira-mcp/templates/`.
+- **Task templates for `create_task`** -- add `list_task_templates` and template-based issue creation with variable rendering.
+- **Comment approval hook manifest** -- ship `hooks/jira-mcp-hooks.json` for ai-toolkit `inject-hook` flows that preview and gate Jira comment writes.
+
+### Changed
+- **Template loading model** -- resolve active templates from system files plus global user overrides, with user files winning on `id` collisions.
+- **Configuration init** -- create dedicated template directories for comments, single-task templates, and bulk task configs.
+- **README validation** -- exclude internal tool helpers from MCP tool counts and refresh counts to match the current source tree.
+
+### Fixed
+- **Comment write safety** -- require explicit `user_approved=true` before `add_task_comment` and `add_templated_comment` can mutate Jira.
+- **Comment preview flow** -- render templated comment previews before execution so approval can target the exact outgoing markdown.

 The AI will use `add_templated_comment` with `template_id: "status-update"` automatically.
 
+### File-Backed Overrides
+
+System templates are shipped as markdown files. User overrides are loaded from:

+```text
+~/.softspark/jira-mcp/templates/comments/
+~/.softspark/jira-mcp/templates/task-templates/
+```

+If a user file has the same `id` as a system template, the user file wins globally for all projects.

+### AI Toolkit Hooks
+
+To require explicit user approval before Jira comment writes, inject the repo-owned hook manifest:
+
+```bash
+ai-toolkit inject-hook https://raw.githubusercontent.com/softspark/jira-mcp/main/hooks/jira-mcp-hooks.json
+```
+
+This installs a `PreToolUse` guard for `add_task_comment` and `add_templated_comment`. The hook blocks the tool call, shows the exact comment preview, and tells the agent to retry only after the user approves it with `user_approved=true`.
+
+The MCP server still enforces `user_approved=true` at runtime, so the hook is UX guidance plus an extra safety layer rather than the only check.
