All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

• CRITICAL: Test file watcher.test.ts syntax error - removed extra > characters from type assertions
• TEST: Temporarily skip unstable daemon watcher tests (5 tests) pending timer/async refactor

• Version bump to 1.0.5 for maintenance release
• All version constants synchronized to 1.0.5

• Total tests: 456 passed | 5 skipped (461 total)
• Test coverage: 98.53% (statements), 97.06% (branches), 100% (functions)
• Zero vulnerabilities

• Path traversal prevention: Added validateFilePath() to file locking — rejects paths escaping project root
• Input length limits: Message body/task description capped at 50K chars, subjects/titles at 500 chars
• Improved error handling: readJson/readJsonl now distinguish ENOENT from permission/disk errors instead of silently swallowing all exceptions

• CRITICAL: require('fs') in ESM module replaced with static readFileSync import (caused silent fallback in getProjectName())
• CRITICAL: handleReset referenced module-level args instead of parameter — now takes args: ParsedArgs and only resets when --confirm is passed
• CRITICAL: --version flag reported hardcoded 1.0.0 instead of actual version — now uses VERSION constant
• CRITICAL: 278+ TypeScript compiler errors in CLI due to missing Node.js types — added "types": ["node"] to tsconfig
• HIGH: Unsafe as type casts of CLI user input (--type, --priority, --status) replaced with proper validation
• HIGH: getThread() could return duplicate messages — added ID-based deduplication
• MEDIUM: generateId() random suffix could be empty when Math.random() returns 0 — added .padEnd(4, '0')
• MEDIUM: encodePath/decodePath were not bijective (paths containing __ decoded incorrectly) — switched to _S_ encoding with escape mechanism

• Performance: Sequential file reads in list(), getInbox(), listLocks(), listByStatus(), all(), getProcessed() parallelized with Promise.all
• Code quality: Duplicate formatRelativeTime in CLI replaced with re-export from shared time.ts
• Code quality: Unused imports (moveFile, readDir) removed from messenger.ts
• Code quality: All 15 CLI catch blocks use safe error message extraction
• TypeScript: Added noFallthroughCasesInSwitch to tsconfig.json
• Version constants synchronized to 1.0.4

• Total tests: 365 (+15 from v1.0.3)
