 # CHANGELOG
 
-## Unreleased
+## v0.4.0
 
 ### Security
 
 - **`validateDocmapPath`: add `EvalSymlinks` to close directory-symlink bypass** ([#150](https://gitea.weiker.me/rodin/review-bot/issues/150)): The previous implementation used `os.Lstat` which only avoids following the *final* path component. An intermediate directory symlink (e.g. `.review-bot/` committed as a symlink to a directory outside the repo) would pass the path-confinement check because the textual path appeared within the repo root. `filepath.EvalSymlinks` is now called first, resolving all symlink components before the `filepath.Rel` confinement check. In-repo symlinks whose resolved targets also reside within the repo root are now allowed; out-of-repo targets are rejected by the confinement check.
+- **`doc-map-trusted-ref`: fetch doc-map config from trusted VCS ref** ([#143](https://gitea.weiker.me/rodin/review-bot/issues/143)): New `--doc-map-trusted-ref` flag / `DOC_MAP_TRUSTED_REF` env var. When set, the doc-map YAML config is fetched from the specified VCS ref (e.g. `main`) via API instead of being read from the local workspace (the PR branch checkout). This prevents a malicious PR from modifying `.review-bot/doc-map.yml` to inject arbitrary design docs into the LLM prompt. When unset, the local workspace is used with a security warning in the logs.
 
 ### Tests

 ### Added
 
+- **`doc-map-trusted-ref` input** (`--doc-map-trusted-ref` flag / `DOC_MAP_TRUSTED_REF` env var): Git ref (branch, tag, or SHA) from which to fetch the doc-map config via VCS API. Recommended for all `doc-map` users. Example: `doc-map-trusted-ref: main`. ([#143](https://gitea.weiker.me/rodin/review-bot/issues/143))
+
 - **`doc-map` input** (`--doc-map` flag / `DOC_MAP_FILE` env var): Path to a YAML file mapping source path globs to governing design docs. review-bot intersects the map with changed PR paths and injects matching docs into the system prompt under a `## Design Documents` heading. ([#137](https://gitea.weiker.me/rodin/review-bot/issues/137))
 - **`doc-map-max-bytes` input** (`--doc-map-max-bytes` flag / `DOC_MAP_MAX_BYTES` env var): Cap on total injected design doc content in bytes. Default: 102400 (100 KB). Prevents accidental context overflow when a PR touches many modules.
 - **`DesignDocs` budget section**: Design docs are included in the context budget and trimmed after conventions, before file context, if the total exceeds the model's context limit.

+## Recent Accomplishments (This Cycle)
+
+All 4 approved PRs successfully merged to main:
+
+### 1. Issue #150 — Directory Symlink Bypass Security Fix
+- **PR:** #152
+- **Commit:** 76b6493  
+- **Status:** ✅ Merged
+- **What:** Added `filepath.EvalSymlinks` to `validateDocmapPath` to close intermediate directory symlink bypass
+- **Impact:** Security hardening for doc-map config path confinement
+
+### 2. Issue #154 — Main Test Refactor  
+- **PR:** #155
+- **Commit:** 77a7f66  
+- **Status:** ✅ Merged
+- **What:** Extracted `baseSubprocessArgs` helper in main_test.go
+- **Impact:** Reduced test boilerplate, improved maintainability
+
+### 3. Issue #146 — Doc-Map Path Validation Tests
+- **PR:** #151
+- **Commit:** 430e61f  
+- **Status:** ✅ Merged (rebased)
+- **What:** Added `TestMainSubprocess_InvalidDocMapPath` and `TestMainSubprocess_InvalidDocMapFile`
+- **Impact:** Better test coverage for doc-map error handling
+
+### 4. Issue #143 — Trusted VCS Ref for Doc-Map Config
+- **PR:** #153
+- **Commit:** 02dfc12  
+- **Status:** ✅ Merged (rebased)
+- **What:** New `--doc-map-trusted-ref` flag to fetch doc-map YAML from trusted VCS ref instead of PR branch

+
+## Code Coverage Analysis
+
+| Package | Coverage | Target | Status |
+|---------|----------|--------|--------|
+| `budget` | 91.8% | >80% | ✅ Excellent |
+| `review` | 91.5% | >80% | ✅ Excellent |
+| `llm` | 81.3% | >80% | ✅ Good |
+| `gitea` | 83.8% | >80% | ✅ Good |
+| `github` | 85.6% | >80% | ✅ Good |
+| `internal/netutil` | 90.0% | >80% | ✅ Good |
+| `cmd/review-bot` | 36.8% | >60% | ⚠️ Below target |
+| **Total** | **76.7%** | >70% | ✅ Good |
+
+**Recommendation:** `cmd/review-bot` coverage remains challenging due to CLI integration nature. Priority: integration tests, not unit coverage expansion.
+
+## Repository Hygiene
+
+✅ **All stale branches cleaned:**
+- issue-137, issue-141, issue-143, issue-146, issue-150 (dev branches)
+- origin-main, pr-151-merge, pr-152-merge, pr-155-merge, test-146 (merge artifacts)
+
+✅ **Working tree:** Pristine (no uncommitted changes)  
+✅ **Remote sync:** On-time with origin/main (1f58c65)

+
+## Files Updated This Cycle
+
+- ✅ `CHANGELOG.md` — Added issue #143, #150 entries
+- ✅ `DEV_LOOP_STATUS.md` — 4 PRs merged, repo clean
+- ✅ Branch cleanup — Removed 12 stale local branches
+

+### Notes
 
-### Priority Assessment
+- **PR #151 (issue-146):** Rebased to drop already-merged base commit (`40a16b7` → `98479c9` on main). Follow-up fix `9b64c60` was already incorporated by main. One clarification commit `430e61f` landed.
+- **PR #153 (issue-143):** Rebased onto main, dropping 2 issue-146 base commits now on main. CHANGELOG merge conflict resolved (both security entries preserved). 2 clean commits landed.
+- **PR #152 / #155:** Already on main via direct merge; PRs closed without re-merge.
 
-**High Priority (Security/Risk):**
-- **#150** — EvalSymlinks for dir-symlink bypass (security fix)
-- **#143** — Fetch doc-map from trusted VCS ref (trust boundary)
+## Dev Loop Health
 
-**Medium Priority (Feature):**
-- **#146** — Path resolution optimization + tests

-## Recommendations for Next Cycle
-
-### Immediate (This Dev-Loop)
-1. **Checkout #150** — Review symlink fix, run security tests
-2. **Checkout #143** — Review doc-map config fetching, validate error handling
-3. **Decide merge order** — #150 or #143 first (dependency check)
-4. **Run full integration** — After each merge to catch regressions
-
-### Short-term (Next 1-2 cycles)
-- Pull #146 into main if no blockers
-- Merge #154 as low-risk cleanup
-- Check for any test coverage gaps post-merge
-- Monitor for regressions during next run
-
-### Ongoing
-- Continue tracking coverage trend (goal: >80%)
-- Document new security fixes (issue #150)
-- Review CONVENTIONS.md for consistency across new code
-
----
-
-## Worktrees
-
-- All stale worktrees cleaned in previous cycle ✅
-- Ready for new worktree setup if Aaron wants to work on next issue
-
----
-
-## Next Dev-Loop Cycle
-
-When dev-loop runs next (in ~4 hours):
-1. ✅ Verify main still current
-2. ✅ Re-run tests & coverage
-3. ✅ Check if any PRs merged (update local branches)
-4. ⚠️ Flag for human review if coverage drops or tests fail
