+## [0.6.5] - 2026-06-08
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Refined catalog browse ordering** — Tightened the quality-weighted sort introduced in 0.6.4 based on feedback. (1) Dropped the popularity (times-queued) tier, which discouraged discovery. (2) Replaced the weak "has cover art" test with a real-poster signal: items are led by `cover_art_source IN ('tmdb', 'omdb')` rather than mere presence of a `cover_art_path`/`thumbnail_url` — nearly every item carries a MediaCMS thumbnail, and the resolver also caches that thumbnail as a last-resort cover (`cover_art_source = 'thumbnail'`), so the old test was almost always true. A genuine TMDB/OMDB poster match also implies a well-formed, matchable title. Letter-first-then-alphabetical ordering (which correctly sinks `"02 - Episode"` style entries) is retained.

+## [0.6.4] - 2026-06-08
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Quality-weighted catalog browse ordering** — The catalog landing no longer leads with alphabetical junk (art-less, number-prefixed "02 - Episode" entries). Browse results are now ranked by signals derived entirely from existing data — no curation or featured-item maintenance required: (1) items with box art (cover or thumbnail) first, (2) then by real popularity (times queued, from `queue_history`), (3) titles beginning with a letter before number/symbol-prefixed titles, (4) then alphabetical for a stable tail. Applies to both the unfiltered landing and category-filtered browse; search continues to use full-text relevance.
