+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to this project are documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on Keep a Changelog and this project uses Semantic Versioning.
+
+## [0.1.13] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Fixed
+- Treated BLE service-discovery disconnects (`failed to discover services, device disconnected`) as retryable transient errors in the BLE connect loop.
+
+## [0.1.12] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Fixed
+- BLE target resolution now prefers discovered Bleak device objects (instead of raw address strings), improving BlueZ LE connection handling on hosts that previously returned `br-connection-not-supported`.
+
+## [0.1.11] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Fixed
+- Handled `asyncio.TimeoutError` from BLE connect path so connection timeouts now return mapped API errors (502) instead of unhandled 500 exceptions.
+
+## [0.1.10] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Changed
+- Added automatic BLE reconnect retry with linear backoff for transient timeout errors (including `br-connection-timeout`) before returning a failure.
+
+## [0.1.9] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Added
+- Added add-on-local changelog at `fichero_printer/CHANGELOG.md` so Home Assistant can display release notes in the add-on UI.
+
+### Changed
+- Improved Classic Bluetooth connect logic by trying fallback RFCOMM channels (1-3 plus configured channel) before failing.
+
+## [0.1.8] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Added
+- Root URL now serves a built-in printer web interface for Home Assistant with status, info, text printing, and image upload printing.
+
+### Changed
+- Swagger docs remain available under `/docs` while the Home Assistant "Open" action now lands on the print UI.
+
+## [0.1.7] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Fixed
+- Home Assistant ingress docs now use a custom Swagger UI route with a relative `openapi.json` URL, avoiding `404 /openapi.json` behind ingress prefixes.
+
+### Changed
+- Home Assistant add-on now requests `full_access: true` in addition to Bluetooth capabilities to unblock Classic RFCOMM socket access on stricter hosts.
+
+## [0.1.6] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Added
+- Added this `CHANGELOG.md` and established a release policy to update version and changelog for every change.
+
+## [0.1.5] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Changed
+- Home Assistant add-on now requests `NET_RAW` in addition to `NET_ADMIN` for Classic Bluetooth RFCOMM sockets.
+- Add-on documentation updated with Classic permission requirements.
+
+## [0.1.4] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Fixed
+- RFCOMM connection under `uvloop` now uses direct Bluetooth socket connect in a worker thread, avoiding address-family resolution issues.
+- Classic Bluetooth socket errors are mapped to API-safe printer errors instead of unhandled 500s.
+
+## [0.1.3] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Changed
+- Home Assistant add-on metadata updated for ingress/web UI access.
+- API root endpoint now redirects to docs in an ingress-compatible way.
+- Added attribution for original upstream project and AI-assisted extension note.

 Blog post: [Reverse Engineering Action's Cheap Fichero Labelprinter](https://blog.dbuglife.com/reverse-engineering-fichero-label-printer/)
 
 The [Fichero](https://www.action.com/nl-nl/p/3212141/fichero-labelprinter/) is a cheap Bluetooth thermal label printer sold at Action. Internally it's an AiYin D11s made by Xiamen Print Future Technology. The official app is closed-source and doesn't expose the protocol, so this project reverse-engineers it from the decompiled APK.

+# Changelog
+
+## 0.1.13
+
+- Marked BLE service-discovery disconnect errors as retryable (`failed to discover services, device disconnected`), so the add-on retries automatically.
+
+## 0.1.12
+
+- Improved BLE connection target resolution by preferring discovered BLE device objects over raw MAC strings to avoid BlueZ `br-connection-not-supported` on some hosts.
+
+## 0.1.11
+
+- Fixed unhandled BLE connect timeout (`asyncio.TimeoutError`) that previously caused HTTP 500 responses.
+
+## 0.1.10
+
+- Added automatic BLE reconnect retry with backoff for transient timeout errors (`br-connection-timeout`).
+
+## 0.1.9
+
+- Added add-on local changelog file so Home Assistant can display release notes.
+- Improved Classic Bluetooth RFCOMM connection robustness by trying fallback channels (1-3 plus configured channel).
+
+## 0.1.8
+
+- Added Home Assistant web print interface on `/` with status/info/text/image actions.
+
+## 0.1.7
+
+- Fixed ingress Swagger OpenAPI loading behind Home Assistant.
+- Enabled `full_access` for stricter hosts blocking RFCOMM sockets.
+
+## 0.1.6
+
+- Added root changelog and release policy.
+
+## 0.1.5
+
+- Added `NET_RAW` capability for Classic Bluetooth sockets.
+
+## 0.1.4
+
+- Fixed RFCOMM connect path under uvloop.
+
+## 0.1.3
+
+- Added ingress/webui metadata updates.
