+## [0.38.0] - Unreleased
+
+Minor: query/aggregate/count answer "company X time in a window, with labels" in 1-3 calls using existing operations. The plan hash changes (registry text), so the MCP server must re-pin.
+
+### Added
+- **#274: `in` / `notIn` accept a comma-separated string.** `value: "1,2,3"` is split on commas, trimmed, empty tokens dropped, and canonical number tokens become numbers (`"007"` stays a string; `udf: true` values stay strings), producing the same wire filter as `[1, 2, 3]`. Applies everywhere filters are built (query, count, aggregate, latest walks, the field-name pre-check). A string with no tokens is refused pre-request with `AutotaskConfigError`. Array values are unchanged. Filter grammar text in the registry, README and `docs/API.md` updated.
+- **#275: relation filters.** On a resource with a `ticketID` / `taskID` / `projectID` foreign key, a condition on `ticket.<field>`, `task.<field>` or `project.<field>` is resolved to `<relation>ID in [ids]` (one parent read of at most 300 ids per relation; per leaf inside an `or`). Works in `queryBounded` / the invoke `query` op, `count` and `operations.aggregate`, so `time_entries` can be scoped by company: `[{ field: 'ticket.companyID', op: 'eq', value: 123 }, { field: 'dateWorked', op: 'gte', value: '2026-10-01' }]`. No parent match returns an empty result (`relationNote`, `count` 0) without the child call; more than 300 parents is a typed `AutotaskConfigError`; relation field names are checked against the parent's field set pre-request. New additive result field `BoundedQueryResult.relationNote` / `AggregateResult.relationNote`. `companies.unbilledWork` now uses the shared join-set helper (`capJoinSet`, cap 300), no behaviour change.
+- **#276: default label siblings on query, aggregate and fetch.** The invoke `<resource>.query` rows, `operations.aggregate` group keys and `operations.fetchMany` / `fetchByIds` records now carry `<picklist>Label` (e.g. `statusLabel`) and `<fk>Name` siblings (`companyIDName`, `contractIDName`, `ticketIDName` = "<number> <title>", `roleIDName`, `billingCodeIDName`, and `resourceIDName` / `assignedResourceIDName` / every `*ResourceIDName`) through `resolveCompositeNames` (now also resolving companies and tickets, and any resource's picklists). Default on; `names: false` opts out per call (new key on the query bag, aggregate opts and fetch opts). Cold reads stay capped at 20 per call: capped ids get a null name and the result carries `names: { truncated, capped, note, reasons? }`. Warm caches cost zero vendor calls. `*Name` values are vendor free text, so they are capped at 200 chars (noteChars marker) and wrapped in `<untrusted_content>` markers by the SDK; picklist `*Label` values stay raw. `assignedResourceName` is written as a deprecated alias of `assignedResourceIDName` for this minor release. Worst-case row growth (full model, every FK set): tickets ~50%, time_entries ~77% (see `docs/API.md` §11.27). Behaviour change: callers that compare whole rows should pass `names: false`.
+- **#277: catalog discoverability.** `MCP_TOOL_CATALOG.json` rows for the repeated date-window helpers (`today`, `yesterday`, `last24h`, `last7/14/30/90`, `lastFullWeek/Fortnight/Month/Quarter`, `customRange` on `time_entries`, `billing_items`, `invoices`, plus `time_entries.dateWorkedWindow`: 37 rows) carry `hidden: true` + `hiddenReason`; they stay in the catalog and callable by exact key. `operations.aggregate`'s purpose gains discovery text (totals, sums, counts, hours per ticket / resource / company / contract / month). The `autotask_catalog` meta-tool data documents `q` and `includeHidden`, and the reference server (`examples/mcp/rank.ts`) ships the ranker: BM25 x squared query-term coverage, rows under half the terms dropped, tool-served rows x1.5, hidden rows excluded unless asked, exact key always resolves. Golden test: "aggregate time entries hours grouped by ticket resource" ranks `operations.aggregate` first (7 rows, previously 518 `time_entries.*` rows without aggregate in the top 20).
+### Deprecated
+- **#278: `time_entries.recentTickets`** (removed in the next minor; works unchanged until then). It is a subset of `operations.aggregate('time_entries.query', [resourceID eq R, dateWorked window, optional ticket.companyID eq C], { groupBy: ['ticketID'], sum: ['hoursWorked'] })`, whose group keys now carry `ticketIDName`. The registry purpose / preferredWhen (what describe shows) open with the deprecation and the replacement call, the generated method carries `@deprecated`, the catalog row carries `deprecated: true`, and `docs/API.md` has the worked example.
+### Changed
+- Label siblings are on by default (#276): code that compares whole query / fetch rows or aggregate keys should pass `names: false`.
+### Fixed
+- **#280: `operations.aggregate` checks filter field names.** Filter, `groupBy` and `sum` names now go through the same field-name check as the invoke query/count bags (one shared `findUnknownFieldNames`), against the vendored spec plus the plan-pinned live-only fields. An unknown name is a typed `CONFIG_ERROR` in the one-round problem list, with no vendor request (no metadata read either). `udf: true` conditions are exempt; relation leaves (`ticket.<field>`) are checked against the parent's field set by the relation rewrite. A bucketed `groupBy` entry with an unknown base is quoted as given (`"nope@year": "nope"`).
+- **#281: the `query()` iterator resolves relation filters and labels rows.** `client.<resource>.query()` (the iterator behind the MCP server's `output_path`) now runs the same relation rewrite as `queryBounded` / `count` (`ticket.<field>` etc. become `<relation>ID in [ids]`; no parent match yields nothing with no child call; more than 300 parents is the typed error), and adds the default label siblings per page through the same `labelRows` (new `QueryParams.names`, `false` opts out; the cold-read cap of 20 applies per page and capped ids get a null `*Name`, since an iterator has no `names` summary). `queryAll` also resolves relation filters (raw rows, no labels). As a backstop, `HttpClient.request` refuses any `/query` call whose filter still carries a dotted non-UDF field, so no path can send an unresolved relation filter to the vendor. `operations.revenueRollup`'s internal walks pass `names: false` (no change to its vendor-call budget).
+
+## [0.37.1] - 2026-10-29
+Patch: circuit-breaker probe-settlement fixes only; the plan hash is unchanged (`5cd6c667...`), so consumers need no re-pin for the plan.
+### Fixed
+- **#262 (#270): a half-open probe that settles with a NON-COUNTED outcome releases its slot.** Any 4xx, ABORTED, EMPTY_RESPONSE, INVALID_RESPONSE, REDIRECT_BLOCKED or the deterministic field-validation 500 used to leave the admitted probe slot held, so two such probes exhausted `halfOpenProbes` and every later call to the host was refused locally with no way to self-heal. The slot is now released without counting a failure or re-arming the open period.
+- **#271 (#272): a stale probe settlement is voided against a newer window.** A probe is pinned to the open window it was admitted in; if the circuit closed and re-opened while it was in flight, its late success, counted failure or non-counted settle no longer releases a slot, counts, re-arms or closes the newer window (the `halfOpenProbes` cap could be exceeded). A counted probe failure landing on a CLOSED host still counts like any in-flight failure.
+### Changed (types)
+- `CircuitBreakerState.windowOpenedAt?: number | null` is a new OPTIONAL field: the open-window identity, set once at the open transition and never moved by a re-arm. A custom `CircuitBreakerStore` should persist it as-is; a store that drops it leaves probes unpinned (the pre-#271 behaviour, never a jam). Processes sharing a custom store must run the same version, since an older build re-arming an entry drops the field.
+
 ## [0.37.0] - 2026-10-29
 
 Minor: the plan hash moves `08cf890f...` (0.34.0, the last published release) -> `5cd6c667...` (a new `operations.revenueRollup` registry row, new `time_entries` posted-state options and error codes, the structured `zoneFacts.quirks` entries of #253 and their follow-ups, and the corrected `countOnly` mid-walk budget text of #255 in the usage of the four `time_entries` posted-state ops), so the next release is 0.37.0 and a consumer re-pins once. 0.36.0 was never published; its changes ship in 0.37.0.
