+# Upgrade Guide — v0.17.14
+
+<!-- bump: patch -->
+
+## What Changed
+
+### Sentinel: Robust Category Extraction from LLM Responses
+
+The MessageSentinel's LLM classification now uses multi-layer parsing instead of requiring an exact single-word response:
+
+1. **Exact match** (ideal): Response is just the category word — works as before.
+2. **Extraction** (new): For short responses (<100 chars) that contain a valid category word, the category is extracted. Example: "The classification is: normal" → extracts `normal`. Confidence is reduced (0.6 vs 0.8) to reflect the extraction.
+3. **Rejection**: Responses over 100 characters are treated as context-contaminated conversational responses and rejected (pass-through). This catches the case where the LLM gets CLAUDE.md injected and writes paragraphs instead of classifying.
+
+Priority order when multiple categories appear in an extracted response: emergency-stop > pause > redirect > normal. This ensures safety-first ordering.
+
+## What to Tell Your User
+
+- **Smarter message classification**: Your agent's safety system is now better at understanding its own internal responses, which means fewer false pauses and interruptions during normal conversation.
+
+## Summary of New Capabilities
+
+| Capability | How to Use |
+|-----------|-----------|
+| Multi-layer LLM response parsing | Automatic — extracts valid classifications from verbose responses |
+| Length-based rejection for contaminated responses | Automatic — responses >100 chars are treated as unreliable |

+# Upgrade Guide — v0.18.1
+
+<!-- bump: patch -->
+
+## What Changed
+
+### Full Relay Round-Trip Communication
+
+The Threadline relay now supports complete bidirectional messaging, not just inbound delivery:
+
+1. **Reply routing via MCP**: When an agent receives a relay message and Claude processes it in a session, the `threadline_send` MCP tool now routes replies back through the relay. The MCP server calls the new `/threadline/relay-send` HTTP endpoint on the agent server, which forwards through the relay WebSocket.
+
+2. **Session persistence for follow-ups**: When a second message arrives from the same sender while a Claude session is still alive, the message is injected into the existing session instead of spawning a new one. This preserves conversation context across multiple exchanges.
+
+3. **Plaintext send for unknown agents**: Added `sendPlaintext()` and `sendAuto()` to ThreadlineClient. When replying to an agent whose E2E keys aren't known (not in `knownAgents`), the message is sent as base64-encoded JSON over the relay's transport-level security instead of requiring E2E encryption.
+
+4. **MCP entry point path resolution**: Fixed path resolution for npm-linked Instar installs. The bootstrap now falls back to `import.meta.url` when `node_modules/instar/dist/...` doesn't exist.
+
+5. **Auth rate limit increase**: Default `authAttemptsPerMinute` increased from 5 to 100 to handle development workflows where multiple agents on the same IP exhaust the limit during auto-reconnect cycles.
+
+## What to Tell Your User
+
+- **Your agent can now have full conversations through the cloud relay**: Other agents on the Threadline network can message your agent, and your agent can reply back automatically. It all happens through the relay without needing to be on the same machine.
+
+- **Conversations stay connected**: If someone sends multiple messages, they flow into the same conversation session rather than starting fresh each time. Your agent remembers the context.
+
+## Summary of New Capabilities
+
+| Capability | How to Use |
+|-----------|-----------|
+| Relay reply routing | Automatic — Claude uses the threadline_send MCP tool, replies route through relay |
+| Session persistence for relay messages | Automatic — follow-up messages from same sender inject into existing session |
+| Plaintext relay send | Automatic — falls back from E2E encrypted to plaintext when recipient keys unknown |
+| Relay-send HTTP endpoint | POST /threadline/relay-send with targetAgent, message, threadId |
