Unreleased

---

1.2.0 - 2025-12-04

Changed

• Removed roster CSV dependency and all Dropbox refresh/hot-reload logic; heartbeat now only enumerates .MLG files.
• Added MAX_EVENT_AGE_DAYS filter to ignore stale events and log when no recent activity exists.
• Simplified heartbeat output/logging to show detected units only; logging hardened to never crash the emitter.

---

1.1.1 - 2025-12-02

Added

• Example config.ini now ships with API heartbeat settings enabled (API_ENABLED, API_URL, API_INTERVAL_SECONDS, SOURCE_ID, SOURCE_TYPE).

---

1.1.0 - 2025-12-01

Added

• Standardized SFM telemetry payload builder and periodic HTTP heartbeat POST via urllib.
• Config support for API heartbeat (API_ENABLED, API_URL, API_INTERVAL_SECONDS, SOURCE_ID, SOURCE_TYPE); payload includes file path/size metadata.

Changed

• Refactored scanner to retain file paths and header sniff cache; reformatted logging/ANSI handling.

---

1.0.1 - 2025-11-20

Added

• API_URL config key and report_to_server per-unit POST hook (adds requests dependency).

Changed

• Example config.ini roster URL updated; merged into main.

---

1.0.0 - 2025-11-17

Added

• Automatic roster refresh from Dropbox at a configurable interval (ROSTER_REFRESH_MIN_SECONDS).
• Hot-reload of roster file without restarting the script.
• Failsafe reload: if the new roster is missing or invalid, the previous good roster is retained.
• Atomic roster downloads (temp file in-place replace) to avoid partial/corrupted CSVs.
• Startup config echo printing WATCH_PATH, ROSTER_FILE, and ROSTER_URL visibility.
• Active / Bench / Ignored unit categories for clearer fleet status mapping.

Fixed

• Removed stray note=note_suffix bug in the Unexpected Units section.
• Removed duplicate import time.
• Removed duplicate roster load during startup (roster now loads once).
• Cleaned indentation for Python 3.8 compatibility.

Changed

• Reset versioning from legacy v5.9 beta to v1.0.0 (clean semver baseline).
• Main script normalized as series3_emitter.py.
