 Full release notes for all Utilix surfaces (browser tools, REST API, SDKs, MCP server) live at [utilix.tech/changelog](https://utilix.tech/changelog). This file tracks just this package.
 
+## 0.44.0
+- Add `validate_manifest` tool: validate a web app manifest.json against the W3C Web App Manifest spec's installability requirements, including a 512x512 icon and a maskable icon check.
+- Add `lint_tool_schema` tool: lint an LLM tool/function-calling definition (OpenAI, Anthropic, or MCP format) for missing descriptions, invalid names, empty enums, and required/properties mismatches.
+
 ## 0.43.0
 - Add `build_vary_header`, `parse_vary_header` tools: build a `Vary` response header from request-header names with a plain-English caching note per header, or parse an existing Vary header into the same shape.
