+# Changelog v0.5.91 - 2026-09-10
+
+### Changed
+- Upgraded @tanstack/react-table from 8.21.3 to 9.2.4 (PR #180) and migrated the web dashboard model table to the new v9 feature API. The table now registers only the features it uses (core rows + column sizing/resize), keeping the dashboard light; sorting stays fully external via the filter engine.
+
+### Fixed
+- Double-clicking the resize edge of a column now correctly restores its default width for all columns (Model, Tier, SWE%, CTX, Provider, Avg, Health, Verdict, Stability, Up%). Previously the reset silently did nothing on those columns because their default widths were missing from the defaults map.

+# Changelog v0.5.92 - 2026-09-15
+
+### Fixed
+- **FCM Router tool target (Z cycle) no longer dead-ends (#184)**: cycling the target tool with `Z` to "FCM Router" and pressing Enter used to show a bogus "Missing Tool" dialog reading "FCM Router is not installed on this machine / Unknown tool mode: fcm_router". The router ships inside FCM, there is nothing to install. Pressing Enter in that mode now:
+  - starts the router daemon automatically if it is not already running,
+  - pushes the selected model as primary (with your favorites as failover) into the active `fast-coding` routing set, no extra setting required,
+  - prints the exact connection trio any OpenAI-compatible tool needs: Base URL `http://localhost:<port>/v1`, API key `fcm-local` (or your `FCM_ROUTER_TOKEN`), model `fcm`.
+  - On daemon startup failure it prints a clear error plus the one-liner to diagnose (`free-coding-models --daemon` in another terminal) instead of an "Unknown tool mode" wall.
+
+### Added
+Full model catalog audit: all 24 providers re-verified against live APIs and official docs (2026-09-15). 228 models became 254 (net +26).
+- **Qwen (DashScope)**: +5 new models (qwen3.8-flash-next, qwen3.8-max-0902, qwen3.6-27b, qwen3.6-35b-a3b, qwen3.5-omni-plus)
+- **Cloudflare Workers AI**: +7 frontier coding models (GLM-5.3 and GLM-5.3-flash at 1.3M ctx, DeepSeek V4 Pro/Flash, Kimi K2.7-code, Kimi K2.6, GLM-5.2)
+- **Kilo gateway**: +7 new free models (Nex N2.5 Pro/Mini, Ling 3.0 Flash VL/Sante/Fin, GLM-5.2, LFM2.5-2.6B)
+- **NVIDIA NIM**: +3 (Qwen3-Coder-480B, MiniMax M3 Preview, MiniMax M2.7)
+- **Mistral LP**: +2 (Magistral Medium 1.2, Mistral Small Creative Labs)
+- **OpenRouter**: +3 free (Nex N2.5 Pro/Mini, Ling 3.0 Flash VL)
+- **Z.ai**: +3 (GLM-5.1, GLM-5, GLM-4.7-FlashX)
+- **Novita**: +5 free (Ling 3.0 Flash VL, GLM-4.6 dev, Qwen3.5 Plus, Qwen3.6 Plus, Bunny)
+- **OrcaRouter**: +2 (GLM-5.3-flash-free, difficulty-routed orcarouter/free)
+- **Google AI Studio**: +gemini-3.1-pro-preview
+- **Cerebras**: +Qwen3 235B A22B
+- **OVHcloud**: +Qwen3.8-27B
+- **Ollama Cloud**: +DeepSeek V4.1 Flash
+- **SiliconFlow**: +Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-Instruct
+
+### Removed
+- **Qwen**: 7 legacy 2025 IDs killed by Alibaba's Oct 10 2026 shutdown batch (qwen3-32b, qwen3-30b-a3b, qwen3-next-80b x2, qwen3-max alias, qwen3-235b-a22b base, qwen3-coder-480b)
+- **OpenRouter / Kilo / Vercel Gateway**: MiniMax M2.7 and M3 free variants went paid-only everywhere
+- **Scaleway**: qwen3-coder-30b and pixtral-12b hit EOL 2026-10-01
+- **Routeway**: kimi-k2.6:free now paid-only (3 free models left)
+- **OrcaRouter**: qwen3.8-27b-free delisted
+- **LLM7**: gpt-oss removed from the free API catalog
+- **Cloudflare**: llama-3.1-8b-instruct-fast delisted
+
+### Fixed
+- Context windows corrected against live APIs: DeepSeek V4 Pro 262k (NVIDIA), GLM-5.2 32k (OpenRouter/Kilo), MiniMax-M2.7 192k (SambaNova), GLM-Z1-9B 32k (SiliconFlow)
+- **Mistral**: 6 model IDs renamed to current doc IDs (mistral-large-3-25-12, mistral-medium-3-5-26-04, mistral-small-4-0-26-03, ministral-3-{3b,8b,14b}-25-12)
+- Router test fixtures updated to renamed model IDs (1154 tests passing)
+- `audit_state.json`: all 24 providers stamped 2026-09-15 with fresh fingerprints. Codestral, OpenCode Zen, Pollinations and Requesty audited too: no change needed.
