 ## Unreleased
 
+## 1.14.2 — 2026-08-06
+
+- **Resume lifecycle:** a limit banner scrolling out of the pane no longer
+  marks a Claude session resumed without a wake. Unsnooze now requires a
+  newer non-error parent-assistant usage record, rechecks that evidence
+  immediately before dispatch, ignores subagent `StopFailure` records, follows
+  the canonical key retained by state dedupe, and never treats a persistently
+  busy pane as proof of completion.
+- **Usage diagnostics:** estimated usage now says that its percentage is
+  unavailable, rather than claiming no stop was observed. Proxy
+  launcher documentation explains that `headroom wrap` bypasses Unsnooze's
+  shell launcher and same-pane monitor while hook detection and enabled daemon
+  file watching remain available.
+
+## 1.14.1 — 2026-08-04
+
+- **Package discovery**: refreshed the npm description and README links, and
+  moved the published package homepage from the legacy Combustor Tech hostname
+  to [unsnooze.dev](https://unsnooze.dev). No runtime behavior changed.

+### Proxy launchers such as Headroom
+
+`headroom wrap claude` and `headroom wrap codex` resolve and launch the real
+agent executable directly. That bypasses Unsnooze's shell-function launcher,
+so no same-pane monitor is attached. Claude's installed `StopFailure` hook can
+still record stops, as can the transcript/rollout watcher while the daemon,
+`guiWatch`, and that agent are enabled. For full pane monitoring too, configure
+Headroom's provider-scope persistent routing, then start `claude` / `codex`
+normally so Unsnooze remains the outer launcher. With Headroom v0.34, one
+explicit setup is:
+
+```bash
+headroom install apply --scope provider --providers manual --target claude --target codex

 **Provenance ladder** (why this isn't another guessed-quota dashboard):
 
-1. **`(exact)`** — Codex always (local `used_percent` + epoch reset). Claude only with the opt-in statusline shim (server-authoritative `rate_limits` from [Claude Code's statusline JSON](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/statusline)).
-2. **`(calibrated from N stops)`** — Claude token burn vs a ceiling learned from **your** limit-stop ledger (the same stops unsnooze already records for resume). Not plan presets, not circular P90-of-history.
-3. **`(estimated)`** — used tokens + burn shown; ceiling unknown until the first observed stop.
+1. **`(exact)`** — Codex when a recent local rollout contains `token_count.rate_limits` (`used_percent` + epoch reset). Claude only with the opt-in statusline shim (server-authoritative `rate_limits` from [Claude Code's statusline JSON](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/statusline)).
+2. **`(calibrated from N stops)`** — Claude 5-hour token burn vs a ceiling learned from **your matching usable calibration samples**: a stop classified as `5h`, with a nonzero local token sample from the same model pool when known, otherwise an unpooled fallback sample. A stop can still be valid for revival without meeting those calibration requirements. Not plan presets, not circular P90-of-history.
+3. **`(estimated — percentage unavailable)`** — used tokens + burn are shown when available, but there is no exact percentage (and a Claude 5-hour row has no matching usable calibration ceiling yet).
 
 **Honest limits:** Claude transcript sums are a **lower bound** — subscription quotas are account-pooled with claude.ai and the Desktop app. Without the statusline shim, Claude tops out at calibrated/estimated. Exact Claude % needs Pro/Max after the first API response of a session (absent after `/clear` and on API auth).
