+# Changelog v0.5.24 - 2026-06-10
+
+### Fixed
+- Removed erroneous ✨ sparkles from ALL verdict icons (🟩🟢🟡🟠🔴🔥🟥⚫⏳💀). The ✨ were added by mistake to every model row instead of being reserved for new models only.
+- The 🆕 NEW badge now correctly appears **only** on recently added models (from the `NEW_MODELS` set), keeping the table clean and readable for all other models.

+# Changelog v0.5.25 - 2026-06-10
+
+### Changed
+- 🆕 badge moved from verdict column to **left of model name** — same slot as ⭐ favorite and 🎯 recommended
+- Priority: ⭐ favorite > 🎯 recommended > 🆕 new — favorite replaces 🆕 when both apply
+- No line shifting: prefix width is subtracted from model name width so columns stay aligned
