+## 0.2.1 - 2026-05-26
+
+### Changed
+
+- Require `switchboard login` before local routing, observe mode, dashboard,
+  install, uninstall, settings, and difficulty mapping commands do any work.
+- Updated the signed-out home and status screens to point users toward login
+  instead of showing local routing stats or enabled actions.
