 # Changelog
-## 0.1.0 - Unreleased
+## 0.1.1
+- Clarify the product's best-fit use case as browser-based coding chats that cannot inspect a local working tree.
+- Add a structured GitHub tester-feedback form for install results, file-selection changes, and task outcomes.
+- Add a clear instruction for the receiving assistant to answer the task using the brief as context.
+- Prioritize task-relevant source excerpts ahead of stack details and Git history when the requested budget is small.
+- Let users add a safe repository file by path and print a copyable summary of reviewed file selections.
+- Print review feedback after the generated brief, and prioritize direct local importers of files changed since `--base`.
+- Resolve literal Python dynamic imports and simple JS/TS path aliases when tracing imports.
+## 0.1.0
 - Generate bounded, local Markdown context briefs from project documentation, manifests, Git history, and selected source files.
 - Add an interactive terminal menu with ranked file selection, output choices, and overwrite confirmation.

-**Give a coding assistant a clear map of a repository before it starts a task.** Codebase Brief reads a local project and creates a compact Markdown brief with relevant files, recent Git changes, and source paths you can check.
+**Browser-based coding chats cannot see your local repo.** Codebase Brief turns one coding task into a short, reviewable file shortlist—with excerpts, reasons, and source paths—so you can give ChatGPT, Claude, or another chat the project context it cannot inspect itself.
+It works locally, without an AI service or account. Review the brief, save it, or paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, or another assistant that cannot inspect your local working tree.
