 ## Current Release
 
-The current release is **7.5.0 Runtime Debt Burn-down & Release Risk Cleanup**:
-
-- Agent runs, workflow runs, audit events, and realtime events now carry the
-  `agent-run-contract/v1` family envelope, so replay, admin review, and live
-  feeds can inspect run identity, runtime, status, timeline, and artifacts
-  through one contract shape.
-- AgentRuntime and realtime API responses now expose compact `contracts` views
-  so downstream consumers can read the common envelope instead of re-parsing
-  surface-specific records.
-- Brain quality evaluation now runs a real KnowledgeGraphStore + SearchService
-  corpus fixture with 250+ records, judged queries, recall, precision, NDCG,
-  and must-include hit-rate thresholds.
-- Release risk cleanup removes stale-artifact upload ambiguity, clears npm audit
-  findings, and updates the Tauri 2 stack so the old `block v0.1.6`
-  future-incompatibility warning is gone.
-
-Expected artifacts for 7.5.0 release must use exact filenames:
-
-- `dist/ltcai-7.5.0-py3-none-any.whl`
-- `dist/ltcai-7.5.0.tar.gz`
-- `ltcai-7.5.0.tgz`
-- `dist/ltcai-7.5.0.vsix`
-- `src-tauri/target/release/bundle/dmg/Lattice AI_7.5.0_aarch64.dmg`
+The current release is **7.6.0 Brain-Centered UX & Architecture Closure**:
+
+- First-run onboarding now starts with a dedicated Wake Brain surface before
+  owner/profile setup, so the first impression is the local Brain rather than a
+  generic account or model wizard.
+- Brain Home now includes concentric memory rings around the Living Brain plus
+  direct depth controls, letting users move from Now to Memory, Topics,
+  Relationships, and the full graph.
+- Architecture review closure is machine-checkable through the 7.6 readiness
+  contract covering AgentRuntime, ToolRegistry, central Config, server
+  decomposition, Knowledge Graph hardening, and Brain UX.
+- The two local review files (`review.md` and
+  `ux-brain-simplification-review.md`) are incorporated into this release line:
+  architecture gaps are covered by explicit boundaries/tests, and UX gaps are
+  closed by the Brain-first wake flow plus ring-based progressive disclosure.
+
+Expected artifacts for 7.6.0 release must use exact filenames:
