 # Changelog
 
+## 0.8.0
+
+⚠️ **`slew_w` CHANGED MEANING, AND THAT IS WHY THIS IS A MINOR BUMP.**
+[[SAFETY-39]] makes the ramp limit a **ratio to the site rail** rather than an
+absolute number of watts, and makes `slew_w: 0` mean *follow the rail* instead
+of *no limit*. Two consequences for an existing config:
+
+- A config that leaves `slew_w` at `0` now gets the derived rail-proportional
+  limit. This is the intended fix - the live install was overshooting because
+  its `slew_w` had been derived against a 1500 W clamp and was running against a
+  5000 W one.
+- ⚠️ **A config that sets `slew_w` explicitly above `SLEW_RAIL_FRAC` x the roster
+  sum is now REFUSED at startup** by validator rule 10. `SLEW_RAIL_FRAC` is
+  `LOOP_TICK_S / PLANT_SETTLE_S` = 2/18. On a 5000 W single-inverter install the
+  ceiling is therefore about 555 W; the reference install runs `slew_w: 400` and
+  is unaffected.
+
+CFG-04's rule again, and PKG-06's: the Supervisor keys the built image by
+`version:`, so shipping a schema or semantic change without a bump means
+`ha apps update` is a silent no-op and nobody reads the new rule. **Six merges
+accumulated behind an unbumped 0.7.0 before this was caught a second time** -
+the check that would have caught it automatically is still not written, and that
+gap is the standing content of PKG-06's follow-up.
+
+Contents, in merge order since 0.7.0 (`bbc903b`):
+
+| | |
+|---|---|
+| `9e42cec` | CI-06 - `test_peakguard.py` answered two of its checks with the wall clock |
+| `24c3d87` | SAFETY-38 - pin `site_standing` with shares that cannot answer for the site |
+| `a4290d3` | SAFETY-39 - `slew_w` becomes a ratio to the rail; validator rule 10 |
+| `c8dcb38` | SAFETY-37 - a stale reading is `None`, and arrival cannot be what says so |
+| `0581648` | SAFETY-13 - the output freeze gets a bounded exit, and only where it needs one |
+| `464d398` | SAFETY-42 - a unit that stops delivering its share is no longer invisible |
+
+⚠️ **SAFETY-13 ships a disclosed residual.** Its bounded freeze-exit shows 0
+spurious releases on the sweep's measured-plant slice but **2 of 272 on a finer
+grid**. The shipped documentation carries the 2-of-272 figure rather than the
+flattering one, deliberately.

+⚠️ **THIS HEADING USED TO SAY "Unreleased" AND IT WAS WRONG.** Everything below

+same thing further down, from the 0.4.x era.

+Retitled rather than re-sorted, on purpose: splitting ~3000 lines by release is
