+## 0.2.0 - 2026-10-23
+
+### Added
+
+- The application API: what an application does through the store, over REST from any language.
+  Create resources and set their weekly hours; hold, confirm and release time; book, move and cancel
+  reservations by reference and revision; record external calendar coverage; run maintenance. The
+  routes sit under `/v1` beside the tools, in the same OpenAPI document, and need an API key with the
+  new `admin` scope. They are never MCP tools or A2A skills. `createSlotlockStoreApplicationBackend`
+  serves them from the store; `createSlotlockAgentServer` takes them as `application`.
+- The `admin` API key scope: `slotlock key create <name> --scope read,write,admin`, or "Full" in the
+  dashboard. New keys still default to read and write, and `SLOTLOCK_AUTH_TOKEN` is never admin: it
+  is the token agents are given, and the application API asks no person before it writes.
+- Built-in maintenance. `slotlock serve` maintains every tenant it serves, hourly, one at a time,
+  under a per-tenant advisory lock, and logs the counts; `slotlock maintain` runs it once.
+  `maintainSlotlockTenant`, `startSlotlockMaintenance` and `withSlotlockMaintenanceLock` do the
+  same in a process of your own.
+- `confirmHold` and `releaseHold` take `{ tenantRef }`, so another tenant's hold is not found
+  whatever the connection's row-level security.
+- Clients for Python, Go, Rust, Java and .NET (`clients/`): one method per REST operation, the
+  application API included, generated from `openapi.json` with hand-written transports. Each runs
+  the same scenario against the server image in CI. They are not on their package registries yet.
+- `openapi.json`, the REST API's OpenAPI 3.1 document, in the repository and at
+  https://slotlock.pylota.io/openapi.json; `slotlockOpenApi()` builds it.
+- Property-based tests (fast-check) of the engine, time zones, iCalendar parsing and API keys.
+- A `call` event for each MCP `tools/call` and A2A `SendMessage` that names an operation: its
+  outcome, duration and W3C trace id. `rest` events carry the duration and trace id too, and
+  `slotlock serve` logs both.
+- Releases are opened and merged by a GitHub App once it is set up
+  (`node scripts/create-release-app.mjs`), so its checks run without a maintainer approving them.
+  Only the commit whose checks passed is merged.
+
+### Changed
+
+- `slotlock serve` serves REST by default; `SLOTLOCK_REST_API=off` turns it off.
+- `expandRules` and `findNextAvailableFor` refuse a search window longer than 367 days with
+  `invalid_window`, as free/busy already did, and skip a rule that lasts longer than a week, as the
+  hours validator refuses one. Fifty daily rules over a century were two million windows of
+  synchronous work.
+- Upgrading rebuilds the unique index on booking references
+  (`slotlock_reservations_booking_external_ref_key`) to leave calendar event rows out, and drops
+  the one it replaces after the new one is built.
+- A cursor 0.1 kept beside a stored series is not resumed if the series is zoned and ends (UNTIL):
+  0.1 read its occurrences as UTC beside the UNTIL, so the cursor may have stopped one occurrence
+  early (a booking could then take that time) or gone one past. The next roll searches such a series
+  from its start, within the same budget, and keeps a new cursor.
+- Upgrading widens the API key scope constraint in place, and replaces the reservations overlap
+  constraint with one that counts every row's turnaround buffer (below). Expired holds in a buffer's
+  way are removed; while a live hold or untenanted reservation is in one, migrate stops with their
+  ids and changes nothing.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A calendar event's occupation could be freed or moved through the reservation commands
+  (`cancelExternalReservation`, `rescheduleExternalReservation`, and the application API's
+  reservation routes) by naming the reference the store derives for it: the event stayed active but
+  stopped occupying its time. Those commands now leave event rows out. An event freed this way
+  before upgrading occupies its time again once it is written again.
+- Maintenance replaced a series' stored window with the rolling horizon even when the stored window
+  ended later, deleting the occurrences past it.
+- Free/busy called a window complete when a series started inside it but was stored only from
+  later: those occurrences were reported as free time.
+- Upgrading as a non-superuser owner under forced row-level security failed with a raw error (or,
+  for some repairs, skipped them): the upgrade's data steps saw no rows. The upgrade now lifts FORCE
+  for those steps and records what it lifted, so an upgrade stopped part way is put right by the
+  next one, and `slotlock serve` refuses to start while a tenant table is left without FORCE.
+- `expandRules` without a time zone offered windows after the rule's UNTIL.
+- A delayed copy of a create, after the reservation had moved on, answered `idempotency_conflict`
+  instead of `stale_revision`.
+- A time zone a calendar names without a VTIMEZONE was read as floating, and compared with UTC
+  values as if it were UTC. East of UTC a series lost the occurrence its UNTIL names (in a stored
+  series, a booking could then take that time); west of it, a series ran hours past its UNTIL; an
+  EXDATE or a moved occurrence's RECURRENCE-ID written in UTC was not found. All-day series had the
+  same fault with a UTC UNTIL.
+- A feed with a PERIOD RDATE, or an event with no DTEND, was refused whole; a feed's event that
+  ended before it started was refused with `invalid_external_interval` instead of
+  `invalid_icalendar`; a document whose root is not a VCALENDAR read as an empty calendar.
+- The 4,000 occurrences a series may pass from its start were shared by every series in a feed, so
+  three daily series begun in 2023 refused it for good.
+- An EXDATE left its occurrence in when EXDATEs before it named no occurrence (ical.js passes them
+  one per occurrence), or when an RRULE and an RDATE both named it; such an instant was also
+  reported twice. A series of RDATEs with no RRULE left out its DTSTART, its first occurrence.
+- An occurrence starting in an hour the clocks skip ended as it started and was left out; it now
+  lasts its series' exact length, from its DTEND or its DURATION. Others still end on the wall clock.
+- ical.js matched exceptions and compared UNTIL and EXDATE values with a feed's own VTIMEZONE for an
+  IANA name, while Slotlock read the same times through Intl: under a stale definition, a moved
+  occurrence was found in the feed and lost from the series stored from it. Such a name is read
+  through Intl throughout.
+- A series with two RRULEs lost occurrences once either rule ended: ical.js dropped the rule after
+  an ended first one, or the one before any other.
+- A DATE EXDATE of a timed series excluded every occurrence that day from a feed and none from the
+  series stored from it; both now exclude the occurrence at the series' start time that day.
+- A floating UNTIL was read as UTC beside a zoned DTSTART. A RECURRENCE-ID written in another zone
+  than its series' DTSTART did not find its occurrence, and a `RANGE=THISANDFUTURE` one written in
+  UTC moved later occurrences by the wrong amount.
+- `parseTrustedICalendarEvents` did not read times as `parseICalendarChanges` does: a stored
+  all-day series kept an occurrence the feed's UTC EXDATE excludes. An event it cannot hold (no
+  length, say) is now `invalid_icalendar`, not `invalid_external_interval`.
+- A feed naming thousands of time zones it does not define (50,000 spellings of one zone took
+  seconds) is refused past 100, as one defining more than 100 is; a feed listing too many EXDATE
+  values is refused before they are read, not after.
+- A request body sent without `Content-Length` (chunked) was read whole before the size limit
+  applied, so any key holder could make the server hold gigabytes. It is refused as soon as it
+  passes `maxRequestBytes`. The Node adapter no longer aborts a request whose body the server stops
+  reading; it discards the rest once it has answered.
+- `close()` while the Node adapter was still starting left `listen()` pending forever.
+- On the Workers dashboard, `/dashboard/sign-in/` and `/dashboard/callback/` (with a trailing slash)
+  were outside the global sign-in rate limit.
+- The confirmation question for a create did not say that a transparent booking leaves the time
+  free, or name the other fields it sets.
+- `arguments` that were not an object (a string, an array) ran the operation with none; they are
+  now `-32602` on MCP and an invalid message on A2A. Left out or null is still none.
+- A rate-limited A2A request was answered with an MCP error over HTTP 429; it is now A2A's 200
+  envelope with a `RATE_LIMITED` ErrorInfo. `Content-Type` is matched without regard to case.
+- Calls refused before they ran (a client that cannot confirm, a malformed A2A message, a REST body
+  that is not JSON, too large or not an object) were not reported to `onEvent`. On MCP 2026-07-28
+  a confirmation was reported after the call it decided; it now comes first, as elsewhere.
+- An async `onEvent`, `onError` or maintenance `onPass` that rejected was an unhandled rejection,
+  which ends a Node process by default; an `onPass` that threw made a pass that ran count as failed.
+- A hold could take the time a reservation's `bufferAfterMs` keeps busy, and a buffered reservation
+  could be booked over a hold: the buffer bound only tenant-owned reservations to each other.
+- `confirmHold` with the id of a reservation that has an external reference answered as if it had
+  confirmed a hold, describing it without its reference, revision or buffer. It is now
+  `hold_not_found`.
+
+## 0.1.1 - 2026-10-22
+
+### Changed
+
+- The README and the site install Slotlock from npm (`npm install slotlock`), now that 0.1.0 is
+  published there, instead of building it from a clone.
+
+### Added
+
+- Releases are cut from GitHub Actions: "Release a version" prepares the version on a branch, merges
+  it once CI passes, and tags it; the tag stages the package on npm for a maintainer's approval and
+  publishes the image and the MCP Registry entry.

 ## Releases
 
-Merging a version releases it. A release pull request sets the version with
-`npm version <version> --no-git-tag-version`, updates `server.json` (its version and image tag), and
-dates the version's `CHANGELOG.md` heading. Once it is on `main`, `tag-release.yml` creates the
-`v<version>` tag and starts `release.yml` (the suite, then npm and the GitHub release) and
-`image.yml` (the image, then the MCP Registry). npm holds each staged version until a maintainer
-approves it with two-factor authentication; the Release run's summary gives the command. When a run
-needs a step npm or GitHub keeps for a person (the first npm version, the npm trusted publisher, the
-image's visibility), the failing job names `scripts/bootstrap-release.sh <tag>`.
+Add each change's entry under `## Unreleased` in `CHANGELOG.md`, in the pull request that makes it:
+that section becomes the release notes.
+
+To release, run **Actions > Release a version** with the version (for example `0.1.1`). It sets the
+version in `package.json`, `package-lock.json`, `server.json` and `slotlock.manifest.json` and dates
+the `## Unreleased` heading (`scripts/prepare-release.sh`), opens the pull request, merges it once CI
+and DCO pass on it, and `tag-release.yml` tags the release commit. The tag starts `release.yml` (the
+suite, then npm and the GitHub release) and `image.yml` (the image, then the MCP Registry). npm holds
+each staged version until a maintainer approves it with two-factor authentication (GOVERNANCE.md);
+the Release run's summary gives the command. A version merged to `main` by hand, with its heading
+dated, is released the same way. After a failed run, run it again with the same version: it keeps
+the release branch the failed run left when that already holds this release, so checks already run
+there still count, replaces it otherwise, and reuses its pull request (`scripts/open-release-pr.sh`).
+
+The pull request is opened and merged by the release app, a GitHub App that can only write this
+repository's contents and pull requests. An owner of the organization creates it once with
+`node scripts/create-release-app.mjs` (click **Create GitHub App**, then install it on `slotlock`
+only); the script checks the installation and stores the app's key in the `release-app` environment,
+which only `main` can use. Without the app, the workflow opens the pull request as
+github-actions[bot], whose checks GitHub holds until someone with write access approves them on the
+pull request (**Approve workflows to run**). GitHub lets a workflow open pull requests at all only
+once an admin allows it (Settings > Actions > General > Workflow permissions);
+`scripts/configure-github.sh` sets it, and the run says so when it is off.
+
+When a run needs a step npm or GitHub keeps for a person (the first npm version, the npm trusted
+publisher, the image's visibility, and the deploy key `tag-release.yml` pushes tags with), the
+failing job names `scripts/bootstrap-release.sh`. One run of it does that step, re-runs the failed
+jobs and waits for them.

+
+### Application API
+
+What the application around the agents does, from any language: the store's resource, hours, hold,
+reservation, coverage and maintenance calls, as REST beside the tools. It needs a key with the
+`admin` scope ("Full" in the dashboard); the server's own `SLOTLOCK_AUTH_TOKEN`, the token agents
+are given, reads and writes but is never admin. It is never an MCP tool or an A2A skill, and never
+waits for a confirmation.
+
+| Request | Does |
+| --- | --- |
+| `POST /v1/resources` | Create the resource with this `external_ref`, or update its `timezone` |
+| `GET /v1/resources/{resource_id}` | One resource, with its own weekly hours |
+| `PUT /v1/resources/{resource_id}/availability` | Its own weekly hours; `[]` never bookable, `null` the server's |
+| `PUT /v1/availability` | Every resource's weekly hours at once |
+| `POST /v1/holds` | Hold a window for `ttl_seconds` (up to 7 days) |
+| `POST /v1/holds/{hold_id}/confirm` | Turn the hold into a reservation |
+| `DELETE /v1/holds/{hold_id}` | Release the hold |
+| `PUT /v1/reservations/{reservation_ref}` | Book (`revision: 1`) or move (the current revision plus 1) |
+| `DELETE /v1/reservations/{reservation_ref}?revision=…` | Cancel, at the current revision plus 1 |
+| `PUT /v1/resources/{resource_id}/coverage/{source}` | Record that `source`'s events are complete for a window |
+| `POST /v1/maintenance` | Run [maintenance](#operations) for the key's tenant |
+
+```sh
+curl -X PUT "http://localhost:8080/v1/reservations/BK-42" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SLOTLOCK_ADMIN_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"resource_id":"<id>","start":"2027-03-29T09:00:00Z","end":"2027-03-31T09:00:00Z",
+       "buffer_after_minutes":60,"revision":1}'
+```
+
+- A taken window answers `409 overlap`. `buffer_after_minutes` keeps the time after a reservation
+  busy for holds and other reservations alike.
+- Every write is safe to retry: the same reservation at its current revision answers
+  `replayed: true`, a confirmed hold confirms again, and a cancelled reference stays cancelled (a
+  late booking for it answers `409`). A late copy of a booking or a move that has since been
+  superseded answers `409 stale_revision`.
+- The time a calendar event occupies is the event's: reservation calls never find, move or cancel
+  it, whatever reference they name. Change the event instead.
+- The tenant is the key's. Another tenant's resource or hold is `404`, whatever the database role.
+- With the library, pass `application` beside `rest: true`:
+  `{ backend: createSlotlockStoreApplicationBackend(store, { maxTenantResources }), authorize }`.
+  A principal with `scopes` needs `admin`; then `authorize` decides.
 
 ## Connect an agent
 
+MCP and A2A are wire protocols, so an agent in any language connects with its own MCP or A2A client
+to `/mcp` or `/a2a`, the API key as a bearer token. The examples below use TypeScript. Code that
+calls Slotlock directly, without an agent, can use the [REST clients](clients/README.md) for
+Python, Go, Rust, Java and .NET.

 ## Operations
 
-Run this at least daily for every tenant:
+Every tenant needs maintenance at least daily: it extends recurring events to the rolling horizon
+and prunes what the retention window no longer needs, which is what returns agent quota.
+
+- `slotlock serve` maintains `SLOTLOCK_TENANT` when it starts and every tenant whose key it serves,
+  then each hourly, one tenant at a time. It logs a `maintenance` line with counts.
+- `slotlock maintain` runs one tenant's maintenance now, for cron or after a bulk import. An admin
+  key can call `POST /v1/maintenance`.

+  other's work; a pass that finds the lock taken does nothing.

+bits) and a 6-character checksum, and the database keeps only its SHA-256. A slow password hash
+(bcrypt, scrypt, Argon2) defends a secret a person chose against offline guessing; nobody can guess
+238 random bits, so a fast hash
+loses nothing and lets every request look a key up by its digest in one indexed read. Code scanners
+that treat every secret as a password report this as weak hashing (CodeQL
+`js/insufficient-password-hash`); it is the design, as for GitHub's and Stripe's tokens.
+
+A key acts only in the tenant it was created for. `read` and `write` cover the agent tools; `admin`
+covers the application API (resources, hours, holds, reservations, coverage, maintenance), which is
+never offered to agents over MCP or A2A. Every application operation checks the tenant itself, not
+only through row-level security: another tenant's resource or hold is not found even on a connection
+that bypasses RLS.

+## Dependencies
+
+The published package depends on `ical.js`, `rrule` and `zod`, and on `postgres` as a peer; the
+image adds nothing else. The documentation site (`site/`) is built with Astro and Starlight, and
+those development dependencies never reach the package or the image. `braces`, which the site's
+`starlight-llms-txt` reaches through `micromatch`, has an open denial-of-service advisory with no fixed
+release; it only expands the site's own glob patterns at build time, so no outside input reaches it.
