 changes may occur in any release.
 
+## [Unreleased]
+
+### Added
+
+- `metaChunk` is on by default, keeping VitePress's page-hash map out of the inline
+  scripts. Its content changes with every build, so under a content security policy that
+  names script hashes it has to be updated on the server for every deploy — and when it
+  is not, the map is blocked and the client side of the site stops working while the
+  pre-rendered HTML still shows. What stays inline are VitePress's own two snippets,
+  whose hashes hold still. `metaChunk: false` in the site's own config wins.
+- An RSS feed, written at the end of the build when `augmentConfig` is given a `feed`
+  option: the pages of a section, newest first, with their excerpt as the entry text.
+  Announced are pages carrying a `date` — a feed is a chronology, and an entry a reader
+  cannot place in it is noise. Absolute links need a hostname, taken from
+  `sitemap.hostname` unless the feed names its own; without one the build says so and
+  writes nothing. Several feeds may be declared, one per language say. The feed is
+  compiled from the page hierarchy and is unrelated to `:::pagelist` — a page may appear
+  in three lists and in the feed, in the feed alone, or in neither.
+- Front matter `hide` names surfaces: `"menu"`, `"breadcrumb"`, `"list"`, `"feed"`, a
+  list of several, or `true` for all of them. A page can now be kept out of the
+  navigation and the feed while staying in the lists.
+- `:::pagelist` pages its entries in the browser with `per-page`: only the current page's
+  entries are rendered, the page shown is remembered as `?page=2` so returning from an
+  entry lands where the reader left off, and the pager is a labelled `<nav>` with a
+  status line and buttons.
+- New built-in section `:::pagelist`, rendered by `<ScavoldPageList>`: links a
+  configurable number of the site's own pages — the latest posts of a blog, a section's
+  sub-pages, a list of downloads. Which pages are listed is addressed as in
+  `<ScavoldMenu>` (`from`, `from-root`, `from-path`, plus `deep` for pages filed in
+  sub-folders), and `limit`, `offset`, `sort` and `reverse` decide which of them appear
+  in what order. Entries are a plain list of links by default; the `teaser`, `images`,
+  `dates` and `heading-level` arguments turn them into teaser cards. Anything written
+  inside the block is rendered above the list. Each entry is a single link around all
+  of its parts, so a screen reader announces it once rather than three times.
+- Pages carry teaser data on their hierarchy node, so a list shows content maintained
+  in the target page rather than repeated in the list: `date` (normalised to an ISO
+  timestamp and rendered in UTC, so a date-only value never shifts a day), `excerpt` —
+  from `excerpt` or `description` front matter, otherwise derived from the page's
+  opening prose and trimmed at a word boundary — and `image`, from `image` front matter
+  or the first image in the page body. Front matter images now go through the
+  responsive image pipeline too, which no pass reached before, as no Markdown syntax
+  reveals them.
+- `.cratly.config.yaml` accepts `excerpt_length` (default `200`) to control how long
+  derived excerpts get; `0` switches the derivation off for sites that would rather not
+  carry it in every page's payload.
+- Front matter `hide` accepts `"list"`, hiding a page from page lists only — a draft
+  post stays reachable by URL without being teased anywhere.
+- `useHierarchy()` exposes `collectPages()`, `nodeHref()`, `nodeLabel()` and
+  `nodeTitle()`, the last two separating the short navigation text menus want from the
+  full title a teaser heading wants. `<ScavoldMenuItems>` uses them instead of its own
+  copies.
+
+## [0.2.0-rc.3] — 2026-08-09
+
+### Added
+
+- Media that is not an image is published. Files an author uploads into the media folder
+  — PDFs, videos, archives — are copied into the static output keeping their path, and
+  references to them are rewritten to the URL the built site serves: Markdown links,
+  and container arguments declared as `media-file` such as a video's `src` or `poster`.
+  Previously only Markdown image syntax was handled, so a linked document or a video
+  resolved to a dead URL although the editor offered exactly that reference. Where a
+  single URL is needed instead of a srcset — a `poster`, a link to an image — the
+  largest generated variant is used.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Flag arguments on a container reach components that declare them as props. Bare words
+  used to become the container's `class` only, while `useVideo()` reads its booleans
+  from `data-*` props — so the documented `::: video src=… overlay autoplay loop`
+  rendered a plain inline player with no background mode, no autoplay and no loop, and
+  failed silently. Flags are now emitted as an empty `data-<flag>` attribute in addition
+  to the class. A flag a component does not declare as a prop shows up in the markup as
+  an empty attribute (`<section class="highlight" data-highlight>`).
+
+### Added
+
+- Container blocks work with any name, declared or not: an undeclared name is rendered
+  by `ScavoldContainer` instead of leaving its fences in the page as literal text. To
+  keep a typo from silently becoming a `<div>`, the build reports each undeclared name
+  once; declaring it in `.cratly.config.yaml` silences the report and adds typed
+  properties for the editor.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- `registerContainers()` and the component reference described `ScavoldContainer` as a
+  catch-all fallback, which it was not — no rule was registered for unknown names.

+### `<ScavoldPageList>`
+
+Links a configurable number of the site's own pages — the latest posts of a blog, a
+teaser row of a section's sub-pages, a list of downloads. Rendered for the
+`:::pagelist` container block. Anything written inside the block (a heading, an
+introduction) is rendered above the list; the list itself is left out when no page
+matches.
+
+Every entry can carry, besides its title, a date, an introductory text and a teaser
+image. All three come from the **target** page, so authors maintain them where the
+content lives instead of repeating them in the list.
+
+#### Markdown syntax
+
+A plain list of links, as a footer or sitemap-style block would use:
+
+```markdown
+::: pagelist from=1 limit=10
+:::
+```
+
+Teaser cards for the five most recent posts:
+
+```markdown
+::: pagelist from=1 limit=5 sort=date teaser images dates heading-level=3 label="Recent posts"
+## Recent posts
+
+Everything we published lately.
+:::
+```
+
+#### Arguments
+
+Which pages are listed:
+
+| Argument | Type | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `from` | `number` | `1` | Level relative to the current page. `1` = its sub-pages, `0` = its siblings, `-1` = the aunt/uncle level. Same addressing as `<ScavoldMenu>`. |
+| `from-root` | `number` | — | Absolute level from the site root: `1` = top-level pages, `2` = second level. Takes precedence over `from`. |
+| `from-path` | `string` | — | Path of the page whose sub-pages are listed, regardless of where the block sits. Supports the `{locale}` and `{lang}` placeholders. Takes precedence over both other selectors. |
+| `deep` | flag | — | List pages from every level below the selected one, flattened into one list — for posts filed in year or month folders. |
+| `limit` | `number` | `5` | Maximum number of entries. `0` lists every page found. |
+| `offset` | `number` | `0` | Entries to skip at the start, so a second block can continue where the first one ended. |
+| `sort` | `"order" \| "date" \| "date-asc" \| "title"` | `"order"` | `order` follows the site structure (the `order` front matter and file names), `date` is newest first, `title` is alphabetical in the page's locale. |
+| `reverse` | flag | — | Reverse whichever order was selected. |
+
+What each entry shows:
+
+| Argument | Type | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `teaser` | flag | — | Show the introductory text of each listed page. |
+| `images` | flag | — | Show the teaser image of each listed page. |
+| `dates` | flag | — | Show the publication date of each listed page. |
+| `date-style` | `"short" \| "medium" \| "long" \| "full"` | `"long"` | `Intl.DateTimeFormat` style used for the dates. |
+| `heading-level` | `number` | `0` | Heading level of the entry titles. `0` keeps the entries a plain list of links; use `2`–`6` for teaser cards, one level below the heading above the list. |
+| `image-sizes` | `string` | `"(min-width: 60rem) 30rem, 90vw"` | CSS `sizes` descriptor for the teaser images. Set it to match the column the list is shown in — see [Responsive images](#responsive-images-let-components-own-sizes-not-content-authors). |
+| `label` | `string` | — | Accessible label (`aria-label`) for the list. Set it whenever more than one list appears on the same page so screen readers can tell them apart. |
+| `per-page` | `number` | `0` | Entries per page. `0` shows all of them; anything higher adds a pager. |
+| `param` | `string` | `"page"` | Query parameter the current page is remembered in. Only needs setting when one page carries several paginated lists. |
+
+Pages without a date sort last in both date orders — an undated page is not the
+oldest one, it is unplaced.
+
+#### Where the entry data comes from
+
+| Shown | Read from the target page |
+|---|---|
+| Title | `title` front matter, then `label`, then the first `#` heading, then the path segment. The full `title` wins here, unlike in menus, where the short `label` does. |
+| Date | `date` front matter, normalised to an ISO timestamp. `date: 2026-06-21` is enough; it is rendered in UTC so a date-only value never shifts to the neighbouring day. |
+| Text | `excerpt` front matter, then `description`, otherwise derived from the page's opening prose and trimmed at a word boundary — see [`excerpt_length`](./docs/reference/config.md#excerpt-length). |
+| Image | `image` front matter, otherwise the first image in the page body. Both go through the responsive image pipeline. |
+
+A page opts out of every list with `hide: list` (or `hide: true`) in its front
+matter. The page holding the list is never an entry of it.
+
+#### Rendered markup
+
+```html
+<div class="scavold-pagelist">
+  <!-- slot content: heading, introduction, … -->
+  <ul class="scavold-pagelist__items" aria-label="Recent posts">
+    <li class="scavold-pagelist__item">
+      <a class="scavold-pagelist__link" href="/blog/newest">
+        <picture class="scavold-pagelist__image">…</picture>
+        <h3 class="scavold-pagelist__title">Newest post</h3>
+        <time class="scavold-pagelist__date" datetime="2026-06-21T00:00:00.000Z">21 June 2026</time>
+        <p class="scavold-pagelist__excerpt">Opening prose of the post…</p>
+      </a>
+    </li>
+  </ul>
+</div>
+```
+
+Each entry is a **single** link around all of its parts: image, title, date and text
+address the same page, and separate links would make a screen reader announce every
+entry three times over. The teaser image is therefore decorative (`alt=""`) — the
+title inside the same link is the accessible name.
+
+The component ships no CSS at all; the class names above are the hooks a theme styles.
+
+#### Pagination
+
+`per-page` turns the list into pages, and it happens entirely in the browser: every entry
+is already part of the page's data, so turning a page is slicing an array — nothing is
+fetched, and only the current page's entries are in the document, which keeps the images
+of the others out of it.
+
+```markdown
+::: pagelist from=1 sort=date per-page=10 teaser images dates heading-level=3
+## Archive
+:::
+```
+
+The page shown is remembered in the address bar as `?page=2`, written with
+`history.replaceState`: turning pages is not a step the back button should have to walk
+through, while returning from an entry lands the reader where they left off. A page
+carrying several paginated lists gives each one its own `param`.
+
+What the reader gets is a `<nav>` labelled for screen readers, a status line saying which
+page of how many is shown, and buttons — not links, because no navigation happens and a
+link would promise a URL the built site does not serve. Every part carries a class and no
+styling; the theme decides how a pager looks.
+
+Two consequences worth knowing. The pre-rendered HTML always holds page 1, so arriving
+through a shared `?page=3` link shows the first page for an instant before the browser
+catches up — returning from an entry inside the site does not, that being client-side
+navigation. And entries beyond the first page are not in the HTML, so a crawler that
+executes no JavaScript will not see those links; the sitemap and the
+[feed](./docs/reference/config.md#optionsfeed--an-rss-feed-for-the-site) are what makes
+them discoverable.
