v0.3.0

Added

• Eager Loading Engine: Replaced complex lazy-loading stubs with a robust eager-loading orchestrator.
  Plugins are loaded in topological order, with package.path prepending for reliable module resolution.
• Pinning: Added pin = true field to plugin spec to permanently freeze a plugin at its current commit.
• Diagnostics: Added :Packard diagnose <name> command for interactive inspection of plugin state and module resolution.
• Startup Notifications: Added notifications option (enabled by default) to alert users if plugins are eligible for review on Neovim startup.
• Colorscheme Autoload: Automatically load cond-blocked colorscheme plugins when Neovim's ColorSchemePre fires (ADR-011).
• Hardening: Added force-push detection during update checks and improved build = false handling.
• UI Highlights: 29 custom highlight groups for full control over dashboard appearance.
• Help Tab: Added a sectioned help tab (?) with detailed keybinding documentation.
• Tests: Comprehensive e2e test for self-management and Windows compatibility.
• Documentation: Finalized vimdoc (:help packard) and beta-ready README.

Changed

• Shifted architecture from lazy-loading stubs to an eager-loading model to eliminate re-entry and mode-switching race conditions.
• Standardized user-facing messages via vim.notify().

Fixed

• Cross-platform path normalization for Windows compatibility.
• Self-protection logic for ruicsh/packard.nvim during orphan cleanup.
• Expansion popup border bleeding and highlight group documentation.

v0.2.0

Added

• Directory Specs: Added specs_dir option to recursively scan and load .lua spec files (parent-first, sorted).
• Dependency Management: Transitive dependency resolution, topological sorting, and automatic injection of undeclared dependencies.
• Semver Support: Full semver range support (^, ~, >=, *) for version constraints, resolved via git tags.
• Spec Fields: Added cond, enabled (boolean or function), init, main, and priority support.
• Build Engine: Support for function, command, file, and shell build steps with auto-detection.
• Lazy Loading (Legacy): Initial implementation of keymap, command, event, and filetype triggers (later replaced by eager engine).
• Dashboard Enhancements: Added Clean tab for orphan management and Update tab (U) for inline progress.
• Commit Logs: Added inline git log expansion (<CR>) with columnar rendering and abbreviated ages.
• Orphan Management: Automated detection and cleanup of on-disk orphans and stale metadata.

Changed

• Renamed plugins_dir to specs_dir for clarity.
• Refactored monolithic codebase into structured subdirectories (ui/, parser/, state/, core/).

Fixed

• Deep-merge logic for opts across duplicate plugin specs.
• Neovim 0.12 lockfile format compatibility (supporting plugins key and rev field).

v0.1.0

Added

• Foundation: Core plugin spec parser, bootstrap, and vim.pack integration.
• Persistence: Machine-local state management (packard-state.json) and nvim-pack-lock.json interface.
• Security Engine: Parallel git fetch engine, cooldown queue, eligibility math, and superseding logic.
• AI Review: Integrated LLM change analysis with provider presets (OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, Custom).
• AI Cache: Persistent cache for AI reviews to minimize redundant API calls.
• Dashboard: Core UI with Installed, Pending, and Summary tabs.
• URL Engine: Forge compare URL builders for GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket.
• Health Check: Structured health report via :checkhealth packard.
• Self Management: Capability for packard.nvim to manage its own updates.

Security

• Mandatory manual review and cooldown period for all updates.
• Commit-pinning by default for every plugin.
• Sandbox subprocess isolation for git and curl via vim.system().
• HTTPS-only enforcement for remote repositories.
• Atomic state file writes via temporary files and os.rename().
• Diff size thresholds (warn/error) for AI reviews to protect privacy and tokens.
