Changelog

What this changelog is​

The ReelBot Changelog is a chronological record of:

  • new features
  • improvements
  • fixes
  • behavioral changes

It exists to document what actually changed, not to market releases.

If something behaves differently than before, it should appear here.

How to read this changelog​

Each entry follows a simple structure:

  • Added → new features or capabilities
  • Improved → enhancements to existing behavior
  • Fixed → bug fixes and reliability improvements
  • Changed → intentional behavioral or workflow changes

Not every release includes all categories.

Release cadence​

ReelBot ships continuously.

That means:

  • small updates may happen frequently
  • some changes ship silently unless behavior changes
  • documentation is updated alongside product changes when relevant

The changelog focuses on user-impacting changes.

What gets logged​

The changelog includes changes that affect:

  • creation workflows
  • generation behavior
  • captions, voice, or assets
  • publishing and channels
  • limits, usage, or plans
  • account, security, or billing behavior

Pure refactors or internal optimizations may not appear unless they affect outcomes.

What does NOT get logged​

The changelog does not include:

  • internal experiments
  • temporary feature flags
  • UI copy tweaks with no behavioral impact
  • infrastructure-only changes with no user effect

The goal is clarity — not noise.

Versioning approach​

ReelBot does not use traditional semantic versioning.

Instead:

  • changes are grouped by date
  • each entry reflects what went live
  • breaking or behavioral changes are called out explicitly

This matches how CreatorOps systems evolve in practice.

How this changelog evolves​

This changelog:

  • grows over time
  • reflects real shipped behavior
  • stays aligned with documentation

If something feels undocumented, it probably belongs here.

The CreatorOps perspective​

In CreatorOps, systems don’t just change — they accumulate decisions.

The changelog is:

  • institutional memory
  • behavioral contract
  • trust mechanism

If it changed how you work, it should be logged.

Where to go next​

  • Features Overview → understand current capabilities
  • Troubleshooting → resolve unexpected behavior
  • Getting Started → onboard new users

This changelog is the record. The docs are the explanation.
