+# AI Agents Overview
+
+This file provides structured guidance for AI coding assistants and agents
+working with the **Cozystack** project.
+
+## Activation
+
+**CRITICAL**: When the user asks you to do something that matches the scope of a documented process, you MUST read the corresponding documentation file and follow the instructions exactly as written.
+
+- **Commits, PRs, git operations** (e.g., "create a commit", "make a PR", "fix review comments", "rebase", "cherry-pick")
+  - Read: [`contributing.md`](./docs/agents/contributing.md)
+  - Action: Read the entire file and follow ALL instructions step-by-step
+
+- **Changelog generation** (e.g., "generate changelog", "create changelog", "prepare changelog for version X")
+  - Read: [`changelog.md`](./docs/agents/changelog.md)
+  - Action: Read the entire file and follow ALL steps in the checklist. Do NOT skip any mandatory steps
+
+- **Release creation** (e.g., "create release", "prepare release", "tag release", "make a release")
+  - Read: [`releasing.md`](./docs/agents/releasing.md)
+  - Action: Read the file and follow the referenced release process in `docs/release.md`
+
+- **Project structure, conventions, code layout** (e.g., "where should I put X", "what's the convention for Y", "how is the project organized")
+  - Read: [`overview.md`](./docs/agents/overview.md)
+  - Action: Read relevant sections to understand project structure and conventions
+
+- **General questions about contributing**
+  - Read: [`contributing.md`](./docs/agents/contributing.md)
+  - Action: Read the file to understand git workflow, commit format, PR process
+
+**Important rules:**
+- ✅ **ONLY read the file if the task matches the documented process scope** - do not read files for tasks that don't match their purpose
+- ✅ **ALWAYS read the file FIRST** before starting the task (when applicable)
+- ✅ **Follow instructions EXACTLY** as written in the documentation
+- ✅ **Do NOT skip mandatory steps** (especially in changelog.md)
+- ✅ **Do NOT assume** you know the process - always check the documentation when the task matches

+- 📖 **Note**: [`overview.md`](./docs/agents/overview.md) can be useful as a reference to understand project structure and conventions, even when not explicitly required by the task
+
+## Project Overview
+
+**Cozystack** is a Kubernetes-based platform for building cloud infrastructure with managed services (databases, VMs, K8s clusters), multi-tenancy, and GitOps delivery.
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+### Code Structure
+- `packages/core/` - Core platform charts (installer, platform)
+- `packages/system/` - System components (CSI, CNI, operators)
+- `packages/apps/` - User-facing applications in catalog
+- `packages/extra/` - Tenant-specific modules
+- `cmd/`, `internal/`, `pkg/` - Go code
+- `api/` - Kubernetes CRDs
+
+### Conventions
+- **Helm Charts**: Umbrella pattern, vendored upstream charts in `charts/`
+- **Go Code**: Controller-runtime patterns, kubebuilder style
+- **Git Commits**: `[component] Description` format with `--signoff`
+
+### What NOT to Do
+- ❌ Edit `/vendor/`, `zz_generated.*.go`, upstream charts directly
+- ❌ Modify `go.mod`/`go.sum` manually (use `go get`)
+- ❌ Force push to main/master
+- ❌ Commit built artifacts from `_out`

+# Cozystack Backups – Core API & Contracts (Draft)
+
+## 1. Overview
+
+Cozystack’s backup subsystem provides a generic, composable way to back up and restore managed applications:
+
+* Every **application instance** can have one or more **backup plans**.
+* Backups are stored in configurable **storage locations**.
+* The mechanics of *how* a backup/restore is performed are delegated to **strategy drivers**, each implementing driver-specific **BackupStrategy** CRDs.
+
+The core API:
+
+* Orchestrates **when** backups happen and **where** they’re stored.
+* Tracks **what** backups exist and their status.
+* Defines contracts with drivers via shared resources (`BackupJob`, `Backup`, `RestoreJob`).
+
+It does **not** implement the backup logic itself.
+
+This document covers only the **core** API and its contracts with drivers, not driver implementations.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Goals and non-goals
+
+### Goals
+
+* Provide a **stable core API** for:
+
+  * Declaring **backup plans** per application.
+  * Configuring **storage targets** (S3, in-cluster bucket, etc.).
+  * Tracking **backup artifacts**.
+  * Initiating and tracking **restores**.
+* Allow multiple **strategy drivers** to plug in, each supporting specific kinds of applications and strategies.
+* Let application/product authors implement backup for their kinds by:
+
+  * Creating **Plan** objects referencing a **driver-specific strategy**.
+  * Not having to write a backup engine themselves.
+
+### Non-goals
+
+* Implement backup logic for any specific application or storage backend.
+* Define the internal structure of driver-specific strategy CRDs.
+* Handle tenant-facing UI/UX (that’s built on top of these APIs).
+
+---
+
+## 3. Architecture
+
+High-level components:
+
+* **Core backups controller(s)** (Cozystack-owned):
+
+  * Group: `backups.cozystack.io`
+  * Own:
+
+    * `Plan`
+    * `BackupJob`
+    * `Backup`
+    * `RestoreJob`
+  * Responsibilities:
+
+    * Schedule backups based on `Plan`.
+    * Create `BackupJob` objects when due.
+    * Provide stable contracts for drivers to:
+
+      * Perform backups and create `Backup`s.
+      * Perform restores based on `Backup`s.
+
+* **Strategy drivers** (pluggable, possibly third-party):
+
+  * Their own API groups, e.g. `jobdriver.backups.cozystack.io`.
+  * Own **strategy CRDs** (e.g. `JobBackupStrategy`).
+  * Implement controllers that:
+
+    * Watch `BackupJob` / `RestoreJob`.
+    * Match runs whose `strategyRef` GVK they support.
+    * Execute backup/restore logic.
+    * Create and update `Backup` and run statuses.
+
+Strategy drivers and core communicate entirely via Kubernetes objects; there are no webhook/HTTP calls between them.
+
+* **Storage drivers** (pluggable, possibly third-party):
+
+  * **TBD**
+
+---
+
+## 4. Core API resources
+
+### 4.1 Plan
+
+**Group/Kind**
+`backups.cozystack.io/v1alpha1, Kind=Plan`
+
+**Purpose**
+Describe **when**, **how**, and **where** to back up a specific managed application.
+
+**Key fields (spec)**
+
+```go
+type PlanSpec struct {
+    // Application to back up.
+    // If apiGroup is not specified, it defaults to "apps.cozystack.io".
+    ApplicationRef corev1.TypedLocalObjectReference `json:"applicationRef"`
+
+    // BackupClassName references a BackupClass that contains strategy and other parameters (e.g. storage reference).
+    // The BackupClass will be resolved to determine the appropriate strategy and parameters
+    // based on the ApplicationRef.
+    BackupClassName string `json:"backupClassName"`
+
+    // When backups should run.
+    Schedule PlanSchedule `json:"schedule"`
+}
+```
+
+`PlanSchedule` (initially) supports only cron:
+
+```go
+type PlanScheduleType string
+
+const (
+    PlanScheduleTypeEmpty PlanScheduleType = ""
+    PlanScheduleTypeCron  PlanScheduleType = "cron"
+)
+```
+
+```go
+type PlanSchedule struct {
+    // Type is the schedule type. Currently only "cron" is supported.
+    // Defaults to "cron".
+    Type PlanScheduleType `json:"type,omitempty"`
+
+    // Cron expression (required for cron type).
+    Cron string `json:"cron,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+
+**Plan reconciliation contract**
+
+Core Plan controller:
+
+1. **Read schedule** from `spec.schedule` and compute the next fire time.
+2. When due:
+
+   * Create a `BackupJob` in the same namespace:
+
+     * `spec.planRef.name = plan.Name`
+     * `spec.applicationRef = plan.spec.applicationRef` (normalized with default apiGroup if not specified)
+     * `spec.backupClassName = plan.spec.backupClassName`
+   * Set `ownerReferences` so the `BackupJob` is owned by the `Plan`.
+
+**Note:** The `BackupJob` controller resolves the `BackupClass` to determine the appropriate strategy and parameters, based on the `ApplicationRef`. The strategy template is processed with a context containing the `Application` object and `Parameters` from the `BackupClass`.
+
+The Plan controller does **not**:
+
+* Execute backups itself.
+* Modify driver resources or `Backup` objects.
+* Touch `BackupJob.spec` after creation.
+
+---
+
+### 4.2 BackupClass
+
+**Group/Kind**
+`backups.cozystack.io/v1alpha1, Kind=BackupClass`
+
+**Purpose**
+Define a class of backup configurations that encapsulate strategy and parameters per application type. `BackupClass` is a cluster-scoped resource that allows admins to configure backup strategies and parameters in a reusable way.
+
+**Key fields (spec)**
+
+```go
+type BackupClassSpec struct {
+    // Strategies is a list of backup strategies, each matching a specific application type.
+    Strategies []BackupClassStrategy `json:"strategies"`
+}
+
+type BackupClassStrategy struct {
+    // StrategyRef references the driver-specific BackupStrategy (e.g., Velero).
+    StrategyRef corev1.TypedLocalObjectReference `json:"strategyRef"`
+
+    // Application specifies which application types this strategy applies to.
+    // If apiGroup is not specified, it defaults to "apps.cozystack.io".
+    Application ApplicationSelector `json:"application"`
+
+    // Parameters holds strategy-specific parameters, like storage reference.
+    // Common parameters include:
+    // - backupStorageLocationName: Name of Velero BackupStorageLocation
+    // +optional
+    Parameters map[string]string `json:"parameters,omitempty"`
+}
+
+type ApplicationSelector struct {
+    // APIGroup is the API group of the application.
+    // If not specified, defaults to "apps.cozystack.io".
+    // +optional
+    APIGroup *string `json:"apiGroup,omitempty"`
+
+    // Kind is the kind of the application (e.g., VirtualMachine, MariaDB).
+    Kind string `json:"kind"`
+}
+```
+
+**BackupClass resolution**
+
+* When a `BackupJob` or `Plan` references a `BackupClass` via `backupClassName`, the controller:
+  1. Fetches the `BackupClass` by name.
+  2. Matches the `ApplicationRef` against strategies in the `BackupClass`:
+     * Normalizes `ApplicationRef.apiGroup` (defaults to `"apps.cozystack.io"` if not specified).
+     * Finds a strategy where `ApplicationSelector` matches the `ApplicationRef` (apiGroup and kind).
+  3. Returns the matched `StrategyRef` and `Parameters`.
+* Strategy templates (e.g., Velero's `backupTemplate.spec`) are processed with a context containing:
+  * `Application`: The application object being backed up.
+  * `Parameters`: The parameters from the matched `BackupClassStrategy`.
+
+**Parameters**
+
+* Parameters are passed via `Parameters` in the `BackupClass` (e.g., `backupStorageLocationName` for Velero).
+* The driver uses these parameters to resolve the actual resources (e.g., Velero's `BackupStorageLocation` CRD).
+
+---
+
+### 4.3 BackupJob
+
+**Group/Kind**
+`backups.cozystack.io/v1alpha1, Kind=BackupJob`
+
+**Purpose**
+Represent a single **execution** of a backup operation, typically created when a `Plan` fires or when a user triggers an ad-hoc backup.
+
+**Key fields (spec)**
+
+```go
+type BackupJobSpec struct {
+    // Plan that triggered this run, if any.
+    PlanRef *corev1.LocalObjectReference `json:"planRef,omitempty"`
+
+    // Application to back up.
+    // If apiGroup is not specified, it defaults to "apps.cozystack.io".
+    ApplicationRef corev1.TypedLocalObjectReference `json:"applicationRef"`
+
+    // BackupClassName references a BackupClass that contains strategy and related parameters
+    // The BackupClass will be resolved to determine the appropriate strategy and parameters
+    // based on the ApplicationRef.
+    BackupClassName string `json:"backupClassName"`
+}
+```
+
+**Key fields (status)**
+
+```go
+type BackupJobStatus struct {
+    Phase       BackupJobPhase         `json:"phase,omitempty"`
+    BackupRef   *corev1.LocalObjectReference `json:"backupRef,omitempty"`
+    StartedAt   *metav1.Time           `json:"startedAt,omitempty"`
+    CompletedAt *metav1.Time           `json:"completedAt,omitempty"`
+    Message     string                 `json:"message,omitempty"`
+    Conditions  []metav1.Condition     `json:"conditions,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+
+`BackupJobPhase` is one of: `Pending`, `Running`, `Succeeded`, `Failed`.
+
+**BackupJob contract with drivers**
+
+* Core **creates** `BackupJob` and must treat `spec` as immutable afterwards.
+* Each driver controller:
+
+  * Watches `BackupJob`.
+  * Resolves the `BackupClass` referenced by `spec.backupClassName`.
+  * Matches the `ApplicationRef` against strategies in the `BackupClass` to find the appropriate strategy.
+  * Reconciles runs where the resolved strategy's `apiGroup/kind` matches its **strategy type(s)**.
+* Driver responsibilities:
+
+  1. On first reconcile:
+
+     * Set `status.startedAt` if unset.
+     * Set `status.phase = Running`.
+  2. Resolve inputs:
+
+     * Resolve `BackupClass` from `spec.backupClassName`.
+     * Match `ApplicationRef` against `BackupClass` strategies to get `StrategyRef` and `Parameters`.
+     * Read `Strategy` (driver-owned CRD) from `StrategyRef`.
+     * Read `Application` from `ApplicationRef`.
+     * Extract parameters from `Parameters` (e.g., `backupStorageLocationName` for Velero).
+     * Process strategy template with context: `Application` object and `Parameters` from `BackupClass`.
+  3. Execute backup logic (implementation-specific).
+  4. On success:
+
+     * Create a `Backup` resource (see below).
+     * Set `status.backupRef` to the created `Backup`.
+     * Set `status.completedAt`.
+     * Set `status.phase = Succeeded`.
+  5. On failure:
+
+     * Set `status.completedAt`.
+     * Set `status.phase = Failed`.
+     * Set `status.message` and conditions.
+
+Drivers must **not** modify `BackupJob.spec` or delete `BackupJob` themselves.
+
+---
+
+### 4.4 Backup
+
+**Group/Kind**
+`backups.cozystack.io/v1alpha1, Kind=Backup`
+
+**Purpose**
+Represent a single **backup artifact** for a given application, decoupled from a particular run. usable as a stable, listable “thing you can restore from”.
+
+**Key fields (spec)**
+
+```go
+type BackupSpec struct {
+    ApplicationRef corev1.TypedLocalObjectReference `json:"applicationRef"`
+    PlanRef        *corev1.LocalObjectReference     `json:"planRef,omitempty"`
+    StrategyRef    corev1.TypedLocalObjectReference `json:"strategyRef"`
+    TakenAt        metav1.Time                      `json:"takenAt"`
+    DriverMetadata map[string]string                `json:"driverMetadata,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+
+**Note:** Parameters are not stored directly in `Backup`. Instead, they are resolved from `BackupClass` parameters when the backup was created. The storage location is managed by the driver (e.g., Velero's `BackupStorageLocation`) and referenced via parameters in the `BackupClass`.
+
+**Key fields (status)**
+
+```go
+type BackupStatus struct {
+    Phase      BackupPhase       `json:"phase,omitempty"` // Pending, Ready, Failed, etc.
+    Artifact   *BackupArtifact   `json:"artifact,omitempty"`
+    Conditions []metav1.Condition `json:"conditions,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+
+`BackupArtifact` describes the artifact (URI, size, checksum).
+
+**Backup contract with drivers**
+
+* On successful completion of a `BackupJob`, the **driver**:
+
+  * Creates a `Backup` in the same namespace (typically owned by the `BackupJob`).
+  * Populates `spec` fields with:
+
+    * The application reference.
+    * The strategy reference (resolved from `BackupClass` during `BackupJob` execution).
+    * `takenAt`.
+    * Optional `driverMetadata`.
+  * Sets `status` with:
+
+    * `phase = Ready` (or equivalent when fully usable).
+    * `artifact` describing the stored object.
+* Core:
+
+  * Treats `Backup` spec as mostly immutable and opaque.
+  * Uses it to:
+
+    * List backups for a given application/plan.
+    * Anchor `RestoreJob` operations.
+    * Implement higher-level policies (retention) if needed.
+
+**Note:** Parameters are resolved from `BackupClass` when the `BackupJob` is created. The driver uses these parameters to determine where to store backups. The storage location itself is managed by the driver (e.g., Velero's `BackupStorageLocation` CRD) and is not directly referenced in the `Backup` resource. When restoring, the driver resolves the storage location from the original `BackupClass` parameters or from the driver's own metadata.
+
+---
+
+### 4.5 RestoreJob
+
+**Group/Kind**
+`backups.cozystack.io/v1alpha1, Kind=RestoreJob`
+
+**Purpose**
+Represent a single **restore operation** from a `Backup`, either back into the same application or into a new target application.
+
+**Key fields (spec)**
+
+```go
+type RestoreJobSpec struct {
+    // Backup to restore from.
+    BackupRef corev1.LocalObjectReference `json:"backupRef"`
+
+    // Target application; if omitted, drivers SHOULD restore into
+    // backup.spec.applicationRef.
+    TargetApplicationRef *corev1.TypedLocalObjectReference `json:"targetApplicationRef,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+
+**Key fields (status)**
+
+```go
+type RestoreJobStatus struct {
+    Phase       RestoreJobPhase   `json:"phase,omitempty"` // Pending, Running, Succeeded, Failed
+    StartedAt   *metav1.Time      `json:"startedAt,omitempty"`
+    CompletedAt *metav1.Time      `json:"completedAt,omitempty"`
+    Message     string            `json:"message,omitempty"`
+    Conditions  []metav1.Condition `json:"conditions,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+
+**RestoreJob contract with drivers**
+
+* RestoreJob is created either manually or by core.
+* Driver controller:
+
+  1. Watches `RestoreJob`.
+  2. On reconcile:
+
+     * Fetches the referenced `Backup`.
+     * Determines effective:
+
+       * **Strategy**: `backup.spec.strategyRef`.
+       * **Storage**: Resolved from driver metadata or `BackupClass` parameters (e.g., `backupStorageLocationName` stored in `driverMetadata` or resolved from the original `BackupClass`).
+       * **Target application**: `spec.targetApplicationRef` or `backup.spec.applicationRef`.
+     * If effective strategy’s GVK is one of its supported strategy types → driver is responsible.
+  3. Behaviour:
+
+     * On first reconcile, set `status.startedAt` and `phase = Running`.
+     * Resolve `Backup`, storage location (from driver metadata or `BackupClass`), `Strategy`, target application.
+     * Execute restore logic (implementation-specific).
+     * On success:
+
+       * Set `status.completedAt`.
+       * Set `status.phase = Succeeded`.
+     * On failure:
+
+       * Set `status.completedAt`.
+       * Set `status.phase = Failed`.
+       * Set `status.message` and conditions.
+
+Drivers must not modify `RestoreJob.spec` or delete `RestoreJob`.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Strategy drivers (high-level)
+
+Strategy drivers are separate controllers that:
+
+* Define their own **strategy CRDs** (e.g. `JobBackupStrategy`) in their own API groups:
+
+  * e.g. `jobdriver.backups.cozystack.io/v1alpha1, Kind=JobBackupStrategy`
+* Implement the **BackupJob contract**:
+
+  * Watch `BackupJob`.
+  * Filter by `spec.strategyRef.apiGroup/kind`.
+  * Execute backup logic.
+  * Create/update `Backup`.
+* Implement the **RestoreJob contract**:
+
+  * Watch `RestoreJob`.
+  * Resolve `Backup`, then effective `strategyRef`.
+  * Filter by effective strategy GVK.
+  * Execute restore logic.
+
+The core backups API **does not** dictate:
+
+* The fields and structure of driver strategy specs.
+* How drivers implement backup/restore internally (Jobs, snapshots, native operator CRDs, etc.).
+
+Drivers are interchangeable as long as they respect:
+
+* The `BackupJob` and `RestoreJob` contracts.
+* The shapes and semantics of `Backup` objects.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Summary
+
+The Cozystack backups core API:
+
+* Uses a single group, `backups.cozystack.io`, for all core CRDs.
+* Cleanly separates:
+
+  * **When** (Plan schedule) – core-owned.
+  * **How & where** (BackupClass) – central configuration unit that encapsulates strategy and parameters (e.g., storage reference) per application type, resolved per BackupJob/Plan.
+  * **Execution** (BackupJob) – created by Plan when schedule fires, resolves BackupClass to get strategy and parameters, then delegates to driver.
+  * **What backup artifacts exist** (Backup) – driver-created but cluster-visible.
+  * **Restore lifecycle** (RestoreJob) – shared contract boundary.
+* Allows multiple strategy drivers to implement backup/restore logic without entangling their implementation with the core API.

+# Changelog Generation Instructions
+
+This file contains detailed instructions for AI-powered IDE on how to generate changelogs for Cozystack releases.
+
+## When to use these instructions
+
+Follow these instructions when the user explicitly asks to generate a changelog.
+
+## Required Tools
+
+Before generating changelogs, ensure you have access to `gh` (GitHub CLI) tool, which is used to fetch commit and PR author information. The GitHub CLI is used to correctly identify PR authors from commits and pull requests.
+
+## Changelog Generation Process
+
+When the user asks to generate a changelog, follow these steps in the specified order:
+
+**CHECKLIST - All actions that must be completed:**
+- [ ] Step 1: Update information from remote (git fetch)
+- [ ] Step 2: Check current branch (must be main)
+- [ ] Step 3: Determine release type and previous version (minor vs patch release)
+- [ ] Step 4: Determine versions and analyze existing changelogs
+- [ ] Step 5: Get the list of commits for the release period
+- [ ] Step 6: Check additional repositories (website is REQUIRED, optional repos if tags exist)
+  - [ ] **MANDATORY**: Check website repository for documentation changes WITH authors and PR links via GitHub CLI
+  - [ ] **MANDATORY**: Check ALL optional repositories (talm, boot-to-talos, cozyhr, cozy-proxy) for tags during release period
+  - [ ] **MANDATORY**: For ALL commits from additional repos, get GitHub username via CLI, prioritizing PR author over commit author.
+- [ ] Step 7: Analyze commits (extract PR numbers, authors, user impact)
+  - [ ] **MANDATORY**: For EVERY PR in main repo, get PR author via `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --json author --jq .author.login` (do NOT skip this step)
+  - [ ] **MANDATORY**: Extract PR numbers from commit messages, then use `gh pr view` for each PR to get the PR author. Do NOT use commit author. Only for commits without PR numbers (rare), fall back to `gh api repos/cozystack/cozystack/commits/<hash> --jq '.author.login'`
+- [ ] Step 8: Form new changelog (structure, format, generate contributors list)
+- [ ] Step 9: Verify completeness and save
+
+### 1. Updating information from remote
+
+```bash
+git fetch --tags --force --prune
+```
+
+This is necessary to get up-to-date information about tags and commits from the remote repository.
+
+### 2. Checking current branch
+
+Make sure we are on the `main` branch:
+
+```bash
+git branch --show-current
+```
+
+### 3. Determining release type and previous version
+
+**Important**: Determine if you're generating a changelog for a **minor release** (vX.Y.0) or a **patch release** (vX.Y.Z where Z > 0).
+
+**For minor releases (vX.Y.0):**
+- Each minor version lives and evolves in its own branch (`release-X.Y`)
+- You MUST compare with the **previous minor version** (v(X-1).Y.0), not the last patch release
+- This ensures you capture all changes from the entire minor version cycle, including all patch releases
+- Example: For v0.38.0, compare with v0.37.0 (not v0.37.8)
+- Run a separate cycle to check the diff with the zero version of the previous minor release
+
+**For patch releases (vX.Y.Z where Z > 0):**
+- Compare with the previous patch version (vX.Y.(Z-1))
+- Example: For v0.37.2, compare with v0.37.1
+
+### 4. Determining versions and analyzing existing changelogs
+
+**Determine the last published version:**
+1. Get the list of version tags:
+   ```bash
+   git tag -l 'v[0-9]*.[0-9]*.[0-9]*' | sort -V
+   ```
+
+2. Get the last tag:
+   ```bash
+   git tag -l 'v[0-9]*.[0-9]*.[0-9]*' | sort -V | tail -1
+   ```
+
+3. Compare tags with existing changelog files in `docs/changelogs/` to determine the last published version (the newest file `vX.Y.Z.md`)
+
+**Study existing changelog format:**
+- Review recent changelog files to understand the format and structure
+- Pay attention to:
+  - **Feature Highlights format** (for minor releases): Use `## Feature Highlights` with `### Feature Name` subsections containing detailed descriptions (2-4 paragraphs each). See v0.35.0 and v0.36.0 for examples.
+  - Section structure (Major Features and Improvements, Security, Fixes, Dependencies, etc.)
+  - PR link format (e.g., `[**@username**](https://github.com/username) in #1234`)
+  - Change description style
+  - Presence of Breaking changes sections, etc.
+
+### 5. Getting the list of commits
+
+**Important**: Determine if you're generating a changelog for a **minor release** (vX.Y.0) or a **patch release** (vX.Y.Z where Z > 0).
+
+**For patch releases (vX.Y.Z where Z > 0):**
+Get the list of commits starting from the previous patch version to HEAD:
+
+**⚠️ CRITICAL: Do NOT use --first-parent flag! It will skip merge commits including backports!**
+
+```bash
+# Get all commits including merge commits (backports)
+git log <previous_version>..HEAD --pretty=format:"%h - %s (%an, %ar)"
+```
+
+For example, if generating changelog for `v0.37.2`:
+```bash
+git log v0.37.1..HEAD --pretty=format:"%h - %s (%an, %ar)"
+```
+
+**⚠️ IMPORTANT: Check for backports:**
+- Look for commits with "[Backport release-X.Y]" in the commit message
+- For backport PRs, find the original PR number mentioned in the backport commit message or PR description
+- Use the original PR author (not the backport PR author) when creating changelog entries
+- Include both the original PR number and backport PR number in the changelog entry (e.g., `#1606, #1609`)
+
+**For minor releases (vX.Y.0):**
+Minor releases must include **all changes** from patch releases of the previous minor version. Get commits from the previous minor release:
+
+**⚠️ CRITICAL: Do NOT use --first-parent flag! It will skip merge commits including backports!**
+
+```bash
+# For v0.38.0, get all commits since v0.37.0 (including all patch releases v0.37.1, v0.37.2, etc.)
+git log v<previous_minor_version>..HEAD --pretty=format:"%h - %s (%an, %ar)"
+```
+
+For example, if generating changelog for `v0.38.0`:
+```bash
+git log v0.37.0..HEAD --pretty=format:"%h - %s (%an, %ar)"
+```
+
+This will include all commits from v0.37.1, v0.37.2, v0.37.3, etc., up to v0.38.0.
+
+**⚠️ IMPORTANT: Always check merge commits:**
+- Merge commits may contain backports that need to be included
+- Check all commits in the range, including merge commits
+- For backports, always find and reference the original PR
+
+### 6. Analyzing additional repositories
+
+**⚠️ CRITICAL: This step is MANDATORY and must NOT be skipped!**
+
+Cozystack release may include changes from related repositories. Check and include commits from these repositories if tags were released during the release period:
+
+**Required repositories:**
+- **Documentation**: [https://github.com/cozystack/website](https://github.com/cozystack/website)
+  - **MANDATORY**: Always check this repository for documentation changes during the release period
+  - **MANDATORY**: Get GitHub username for EVERY commit. Extract PR number from commit message, then use `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --repo cozystack/website --json author --jq .author.login` to get PR author. Only if no PR number, fall back to `gh api repos/cozystack/website/commits/<hash> --jq '.author.login'`
+
+**Optional repositories (MUST check ALL of them for tags during release period):**
+- [https://github.com/cozystack/talm](https://github.com/cozystack/talm)
+- [https://github.com/cozystack/boot-to-talos](https://github.com/cozystack/boot-to-talos)
+- [https://github.com/cozystack/cozyhr](https://github.com/cozystack/cozyhr)
+- [https://github.com/cozystack/cozy-proxy](https://github.com/cozystack/cozy-proxy)
+
+**⚠️ IMPORTANT**: You MUST check ALL optional repositories for tags created during the release period. Do NOT skip this step even if you think there might not be any tags. Use the process below to verify.
+
+**Process for each repository:**
+
+1. **Get release period dates:**
+   ```bash
+   # Get dates for the release period
+   cd /path/to/cozystack
+   RELEASE_START=$(git log -1 --format=%ai v<previous_version>)
+   RELEASE_END=$(git log -1 --format=%ai HEAD)
+   ```
+
+2. **Check for commits in website repository (always required):**
+   ```bash
+   # Ensure website repository is cloned and up-to-date
+   mkdir -p _repos
+   if [ ! -d "_repos/website" ]; then
+     cd _repos && git clone https://github.com/cozystack/website.git && cd ..
+   fi
+   cd _repos/website
+   git fetch --all --tags --force
+   git checkout main 2>/dev/null || git checkout master
+   git pull
+   
+   # Get commits between release dates (with some buffer)
+   git log --since="$RELEASE_START" --until="$RELEASE_END" --format="%H|%s|%an" | while IFS='|' read -r commit_hash subject author_name; do
+     # Extract PR number from commit message
+     PR_NUMBER=$(git log -1 --format="%B" "$commit_hash" | grep -oE '#[0-9]+' | head -1 | tr -d '#')
+     
+     # ALWAYS use PR author if PR number found, not commit author
+     if [ -n "$PR_NUMBER" ]; then
+       GITHUB_USERNAME=$(gh pr view "$PR_NUMBER" --repo cozystack/website --json author --jq '.author.login // empty' 2>/dev/null)
+       echo "$commit_hash|$subject|$author_name|$GITHUB_USERNAME|cozystack/website#$PR_NUMBER"
+     else
+       # Only fallback to commit author if no PR number found (rare)
+       GITHUB_USERNAME=$(gh api repos/cozystack/website/commits/$commit_hash --jq '.author.login // empty')
+       echo "$commit_hash|$subject|$author_name|$GITHUB_USERNAME|cozystack/website@${commit_hash:0:7}"
+     fi
+   done
+   
+   # Look for documentation updates, new pages, or significant content changes
+   # Include these in the "Documentation" section of the changelog WITH authors and PR links
+   ```
+
+3. **For optional repositories, check if tags exist during release period:**
+
+   **⚠️ MANDATORY: You MUST check ALL optional repositories (talm, boot-to-talos, cozyhr, cozy-proxy). Do NOT skip any repository!**
+
+   **Use the helper script:**
+   ```bash
+   # Get release period dates
+   RELEASE_START=$(git log -1 --format=%ai v<previous_version>)
+   RELEASE_END=$(git log -1 --format=%ai HEAD)
+   
+   # Run the script to check all optional repositories
+   ./docs/changelogs/hack/check-optional-repos.sh "$RELEASE_START" "$RELEASE_END"
+   ```
+   
+   The script will:
+   - Check ALL optional repositories (talm, boot-to-talos, cozyhr, cozy-proxy)
+   - Look for tags created during the release period
+   - Get commits between tags (if tags exist) or by date range (if no tags)
+   - Extract PR numbers from commit messages
+   - For EVERY commit with PR number, get PR author via CLI: `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --repo cozystack/<repo> --json author --jq .author.login` (ALWAYS use PR author, not commit author)
+   - For commits without PR numbers (rare), fallback to: `gh api repos/cozystack/<repo>/commits/<hash> --jq '.author.login'`
+   - Output results in format: `commit_hash|subject|author_name|github_username|cozystack/repo#PR_NUMBER` or `cozystack/repo@commit_hash`
+
+4. **Extract PR numbers and authors using GitHub CLI:**
+   - **ALWAYS use PR author, not commit author** for commits from additional repositories
+   - For each commit, extract PR number from commit message first: Extract `#123` pattern from commit message
+   - If PR number found, use `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --repo cozystack/<repo> --json author --jq .author.login` to get PR author (the person who wrote the code)
+   - Only if no PR number found (rare), fallback to commit author: `gh api repos/cozystack/<repo>/commits/<hash> --jq '.author.login'`
+   - **Prefer PR numbers**: Use format `cozystack/website#123` if PR number found in commit message
+   - **Fallback to commit hash**: Use format `cozystack/website@abc1234` if no PR number
+   - **ALWAYS include author**: Every entry from additional repositories MUST include author in format `([**@username**](https://github.com/username) in cozystack/repo#123)`
+   - Determine user impact and categorize appropriately
+   - Format entries with repository prefix: `[website]`, `[talm]`, etc.
+
+**Example entry format for additional repositories:**
+```markdown
+# If PR number found in commit message (REQUIRED format):
+* **[website] Update installation documentation**: Improved installation guide with new examples ([**@username**](https://github.com/username) in cozystack/website#123).
+
+# If no PR number (fallback, use commit hash):
+* **[website] Update installation documentation**: Improved installation guide with new examples ([**@username**](https://github.com/username) in cozystack/website@abc1234).
+
+# For optional repositories:
+* **[talm] Add new feature**: Description of the change ([**@username**](https://github.com/username) in cozystack/talm#456).
+```
+
+**CRITICAL**: 
+- **ALWAYS include author** for every entry from additional repositories
+- **ALWAYS include PR link or commit hash** for every entry
+- Never add entries without author and PR/commit reference
+- **ALWAYS use PR author, not commit author**: Extract PR number from commit message, then use `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --repo cozystack/<repo> --json author --jq .author.login` to get the PR author (the person who wrote the code)
+- Only if no PR number found (rare), fallback to commit author: `gh api repos/cozystack/<repo>/commits/<hash> --jq '.author.login'`
+- The commit author (especially for squash/merge commits) is usually the person who merged the PR, not the person who wrote the code
+
+### 7. Analyzing commits and PRs
+
+**⚠️ CRITICAL: You MUST get the author from PR, not from commit! Always use `gh pr view` to get the PR author. Do NOT use commit author!**
+
+**Get all PR numbers from commits:**
+**⚠️ CRITICAL: Do NOT use --no-merges flag! It will skip merge commits including backports!**
+
+```bash
+# Extract all PR numbers from commit messages in the release range (including merge commits)
+git log <previous_version>..<new_version> --format="%s%n%b" | grep -oE '#[0-9]+' | sort -u | tr -d '#'
+```
+
+**⚠️ IMPORTANT: Handle backports correctly:**
+- Backport PRs have format: `[Backport release-X.Y] <original title> (#BACKPORT_PR_NUMBER)`
+- The backport commit message or PR description usually mentions the original PR number
+- For backport entries in changelog, use the original PR author (not the backport PR author)
+- Include both original and backport PR numbers in the changelog entry (e.g., `#1606, #1609`)
+- To find original PR from backport: Check the backport PR description or commit message for "Backport of #ORIGINAL_PR"
+
+**For each PR number, get the author:**
+   
+   **CRITICAL**: The commit author (especially for squash/merge commits) is usually the person who merged the PR (or GitHub bot), NOT the person who wrote the code. **ALWAYS use the PR author**, not the commit author.
+   
+   **⚠️ MANDATORY: ALWAYS use `gh pr view` to get the PR author. Do NOT use commit author!**
+   
+   **ALWAYS use GitHub CLI** to get the PR author:
+   
+   ```bash
+   # Usage: Get PR author - MANDATORY for EVERY PR
+   # Loop through ALL PR numbers and get PR author (including backports)
+   git log <previous_version>..<new_version> --format="%s%n%b" | grep -oE '#[0-9]+' | sort -u | tr -d '#' | while read PR_NUMBER; do
+     # Check if this is a backport PR
+     BACKPORT_INFO=$(gh pr view "$PR_NUMBER" --json body --jq '.body' 2>/dev/null | grep -i "backport of #" || echo "")
+     if [ -n "$BACKPORT_INFO" ]; then
+       # Extract original PR number from backport description
+       ORIGINAL_PR=$(echo "$BACKPORT_INFO" | grep -oE 'backport of #([0-9]+)' | grep -oE '[0-9]+' | head -1)
+       if [ -n "$ORIGINAL_PR" ]; then
+         # Use original PR author
+         GITHUB_USERNAME=$(gh pr view "$ORIGINAL_PR" --json author --jq '.author.login // empty')
+         PR_TITLE=$(gh pr view "$ORIGINAL_PR" --json title --jq '.title // empty')
+         echo "$PR_NUMBER|$ORIGINAL_PR|$GITHUB_USERNAME|$PR_TITLE|BACKPORT"
+       else
+         # Fallback to backport PR author if original not found
+         GITHUB_USERNAME=$(gh pr view "$PR_NUMBER" --json author --jq '.author.login // empty')
+         PR_TITLE=$(gh pr view "$PR_NUMBER" --json title --jq '.title // empty')
+         echo "$PR_NUMBER||$GITHUB_USERNAME|$PR_TITLE|BACKPORT"
+       fi
+     else
+       # Regular PR
+       GITHUB_USERNAME=$(gh pr view "$PR_NUMBER" --json author --jq '.author.login // empty')
+       PR_TITLE=$(gh pr view "$PR_NUMBER" --json title --jq '.title // empty')
+       echo "$PR_NUMBER||$GITHUB_USERNAME|$PR_TITLE|REGULAR"
+     fi
+   done
+   ```
+   
+   **⚠️ IMPORTANT**: You must run this for EVERY PR in the release period. Do NOT skip any PRs or assume the GitHub username based on the git author name.
+   
+   **CRITICAL**: Always use `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --json author --jq .author.login` to get the PR author. This correctly identifies the person who wrote the code, not the person who merged it (which is especially important for squash merges).
+   
+   **Why this matters**: Using the wrong author in changelogs gives incorrect credit and can confuse contributors. The merge/squash commit is created by the person who clicks "Merge" in GitHub, not the PR author.
+   
+**For commits without PR numbers (rare):**
+- Only if a commit has no PR number, fall back to commit author: `gh api repos/cozystack/cozystack/commits/<hash> --jq '.author.login'`
+- But this should be very rare - most commits should have PR numbers
+
+**Extract PR number from commit messages:**
+- Check commit message subject (`%s`) and body (`%b`) for PR references: `#1234` or `(#1234)`
+- **Primary method**: Extract from commit message format `(#PR_NUMBER)` or `in #PR_NUMBER` or `Merge pull request #1234`
+- Use regex: `grep -oE '#[0-9]+'` to find all PR numbers
+
+**⚠️ CRITICAL: Verify PR numbers match commit messages!**
+- Always verify that the PR number in the changelog matches the PR number in the commit message
+- Common mistake: Using wrong PR number (e.g., #1614 instead of #1617) when multiple similar commits exist
+- To verify: Check the actual commit message: `git log <commit_hash> -1 --format="%s%n%b" | grep -oE '#[0-9]+'`
+- If multiple PR numbers appear in a commit, use the one that matches the PR title/description
+- For merge commits, check the merged branch commits, not just the merge commit message
+
+3. **Understand the change:**
+   ```bash
+   # Get PR details (preferred method)
+   gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --json title,body,url
+   
+   # Or get commit details if no PR number
+   git show <commit_hash> --stat
+   git show <commit_hash>
+   ```
+   - Review PR description and changed files
+   - Understand functionality added/changed/fixed
+   - **Determine user impact**: What can users do now? What problems are fixed? What improvements do users experience?
+
+4. **For release branches (backports):**
+   - If commit is from `release-X.Y` branch, check if it's a backport
+   - Find original commit in `main` to get correct PR number:
+     ```bash
+     git log origin/main --grep="<part of commit message>" --oneline
+     ```
+
+### 8. Forming a new changelog
+
+Create a new changelog file in the format matching previous versions:
+
+1. **Determine the release type:**
+   - **Minor release (vX.Y.0)** - use full format with **Feature Highlights** section. **Must include all changes from patch releases of the previous minor version** (e.g., v0.38.0 should include changes from v0.37.1, v0.37.2, v0.37.3, etc.)
+   - **Patch release (vX.Y.Z, where Z > 0)** - use more compact format, includes only changes since the previous patch release
+
+   **Feature Highlights format for minor releases:**
+   - Use section header: `## Feature Highlights`
+   - Include 3-6 major features as subsections with `### Feature Name` headers
+   - Each feature subsection should contain:
+     - **Detailed description** (2-4 paragraphs) explaining:
+       - What the feature is and what problem it solves
+       - How it works and what users can do with it
+       - How to use it (if applicable)
+       - Benefits and impact for users
+     - **Links to documentation** when available (use markdown links)
+     - **Code examples or configuration snippets** if helpful
+   - Focus on user value and practical implications, not just technical details
+   - Each feature should be substantial enough to warrant its own subsection
+   - Order features by importance/impact (most important first)
+   - Example format:
+     ```markdown
+     ## Feature Highlights
+     
+     ### Feature Name
+     
+     Detailed description paragraph explaining what the feature is...
+     
+     Another paragraph explaining how it works and what users can do...
+     
+     Learn more in the [documentation](https://cozystack.io/docs/...).
+     ```
+
+   **Important for minor releases**: After collecting all commits, **systematically verify** that all PRs from patch releases are included:
+   ```bash
+   # Extract all PR numbers from patch release changelogs
+   grep -h "#[0-9]\+" docs/changelogs/v<previous_minor>.*.md | sort -u
+   
+   # Extract all PR numbers from the new minor release changelog
+   grep -h "#[0-9]\+" docs/changelogs/v<new_minor>.0.md | sort -u
+   
+   # Compare and identify missing PRs
+   # Ensure every PR from patch releases appears in the minor release changelog
+   ```
+
+2. **Structure changes by categories:**
+   
+   **For minor releases (vX.Y.0):**
+   - **Feature Highlights** (required) - see format above
+   - **Major Features and Improvements** - detailed list of all major features and improvements
+   - **Improvements (minor)** - smaller improvements and enhancements
+   - **Bug fixes** - all bug fixes
+   - **Security** - security-related changes
+   - **Dependencies & version updates** - dependency updates
+   - **System Configuration** - system-level configuration changes
+   - **Development, Testing, and CI/CD** - development and testing improvements
+   - **Documentation** (include changes from website repository here - **MUST include authors and PR links for all entries**)
+   - **Breaking changes & upgrade notes** (if any)
+   - **Refactors & chores** (if any)
+   
+   **For patch releases (vX.Y.Z where Z > 0):**
+   - **Features and Improvements** - new features and improvements
+   - **Fixes** - bug fixes
+   - **Security** - security-related changes
+   - **Dependencies** - dependency updates
+   - **System Configuration** - system-level configuration changes
+   - **Development, Testing, and CI/CD** - development and testing improvements
+   - **Documentation** (include changes from website repository here - **MUST include authors and PR links for all entries**)
+   - **Migration and Upgrades** (if applicable)
+   
+   **Note**: When including changes from additional repositories, group them logically with main repository changes, or create separate subsections if there are many changes from a specific repository.
+
+3. **Entry format:**
+   - Use the format: `* **Brief description**: detailed description ([**@username**](https://github.com/username) in #PR_NUMBER)`
+   - **CRITICAL - Get authorship correctly**: 
+     - **ALWAYS use PR author, not commit author**: Extract PR number from commit message, then use `gh pr view` to get the PR author. The commit author (especially for squash/merge commits) is usually the person who merged the PR (or GitHub bot), NOT the person who wrote the code.
+       ```bash
+       # Get PR author from GitHub CLI (correct method)
+       # Step 1: Extract PR number from commit message
+       PR_NUMBER=$(git log <commit_hash> -1 --format="%s%n%b" | grep -oE '#[0-9]+' | head -1 | tr -d '#')
+       
+       # Step 2: Get PR author (the person who wrote the code)
+       if [ -n "$PR_NUMBER" ]; then
+         GITHUB_USERNAME=$(gh pr view "$PR_NUMBER" --json author --jq '.author.login')
+       else
+         # Only fallback to commit author if no PR number found (rare)
+         GITHUB_USERNAME=$(gh api repos/cozystack/cozystack/commits/<commit_hash> --jq '.author.login')
+       fi
+       ```
+       **Example**: For PR #1507, the squash commit has author "kvaps" (who merged), but the PR author is "lllamnyp" (who wrote the code). Using `gh pr view 1507 --json author --jq .author.login` correctly returns "lllamnyp".
+     - **For regular commits**: Use the commit author directly:
+       ```bash
+       git log <commit_hash> -1 --format="%an|%ae"
+       ```
+     - **Validation**: Before adding to changelog, verify the author by checking:
+       - For merge commits: Compare merge commit author vs PR author (they should be different)
+       - Check existing changelogs for author name to GitHub username mappings
+       - Verify with: `git log <merge_commit>^1..<merge_commit>^2 --format="%an" --no-merges`
+   - **Map author name to GitHub username**: Check existing changelogs for author name mappings, or extract from PR links in commit messages
+   - **Always include user impact**: Each entry must explain how the change affects users
+     - For new features: explain what users can now do
+     - For bug fixes: explain what problem is solved for users
+     - For improvements: explain what users will experience better
+     - For breaking changes: clearly state what users need to do
+   - Group related changes
+   - Use bold font for important components/modules
+   - Focus on user value, not just technical details
+
+4. **Add a link to the full changelog:**
+   
+   **For patch releases (vX.Y.Z where Z > 0):**
+   ```markdown
+   **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/compare/v<previous_patch_version>...v<new_version>
+   ```
+   Example: For v0.37.2, use `v0.37.1...v0.37.2`
+   
+   **For minor releases (vX.Y.0):**
+   ```markdown
+   **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/compare/v<previous_minor_version>...v<new_version>
+   ```
+   Example: For v0.38.0, use `v0.37.0...v0.38.0` (NOT `v0.37.8...v0.38.0`)
+   
+   **Important**: Minor releases must reference the previous minor release (vX.Y.0), not the last patch release, to include all changes from the entire minor version cycle.
+
+5. **Generate contributors list:**
+
+   **⚠️ SIMPLIFIED APPROACH: Extract contributors from the generated changelog itself!**
+   
+   Since you've already generated the changelog with all PR authors correctly identified, simply extract GitHub usernames from the changelog entries:
+   
+   ```bash
+   # Extract all GitHub usernames from the current release changelog
+   # This method is simpler and more reliable than extracting from git history
+   
+   # For patch releases: extract from the current changelog file
+   grep -oE '\[@[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+\]' docs/changelogs/v<version>.md | \
+     sed 's/\[@/@/' | sed 's/\]//' | \
+     sort -u
+   
+   # For minor releases: extract from the current changelog file
+   grep -oE '\[@[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+\]' docs/changelogs/v<version>.md | \
+     sed 's/\[@/@/' | sed 's/\]//' | \
+     sort -u
+   ```
+   
+   **Get all previous contributors (to identify new ones):**
+   ```bash
+   # Extract GitHub usernames from all previous changelogs
+   grep -hE '\[@[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+\]' docs/changelogs/v*.md | \
+     grep -oE '@[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+' | \
+     sort -u > /tmp/previous_contributors.txt
+   ```
+   
+   **Identify new contributors (first-time contributors):**
+   ```bash
+   # Get current release contributors from the changelog
+   grep -oE '@[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+' docs/changelogs/v<version>.md | \
+     sort -u > /tmp/current_contributors.txt
+   
+   # Get all previous contributors
+   grep -hE '@[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+' docs/changelogs/v*.md | \
+     grep -oE '@[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+' | \
+     sort -u > /tmp/all_previous_contributors.txt
+   
+   # Find new contributors (those in current but not in previous)
+   comm -23 <(sort /tmp/current_contributors.txt) <(sort /tmp/all_previous_contributors.txt)
+   ```
+   
+   **Why this approach is better:**
+   - ✅ Uses the already-verified PR authors from the changelog (no need to query GitHub API again)
+   - ✅ Automatically handles backports correctly (original PR authors are already in the changelog)
+   - ✅ Simpler and faster (no git log parsing or API calls)
+   - ✅ More reliable (matches exactly what's in the changelog)
+   - ✅ Works for both patch and minor releases
+   
+   **Add contributors section to changelog:**
+   
+   Place the contributors section at the end of the changelog, before the "Full Changelog" link:
+   ```markdown
+   ## Contributors
+   
+   We'd like to thank all contributors who made this release possible:
+   
+   * [**@username1**](https://github.com/username1)
+   * [**@username2**](https://github.com/username2)
+   * [**@username3**](https://github.com/username3)
+   * ...
+   
+   ### New Contributors
+   
+   We're excited to welcome our first-time contributors:
+   
+   * [**@newuser1**](https://github.com/newuser1) - First contribution!
+   * [**@newuser2**](https://github.com/newuser2) - First contribution!
+   ```
+   
+   **Formatting guidelines:**
+   - List contributors in alphabetical order by GitHub username
+   - Use the format: `* [**@username**](https://github.com/username)`
+   - For new contributors, add " - First contribution!" note
+   - If GitHub username cannot be determined, you can skip that contributor or use their git author name
+   
+   **When to include:**
+   - **For patch releases**: Contributors section is optional, but can be included for significant releases
+   - **For minor releases (vX.Y.0)**: Contributors section is required - you must generate and include the contributors list
+   - Always verify GitHub usernames by checking commit messages, PR links in changelog entries, or by examining PR details
+
+6. **Add a comment with a link to the GitHub release:**
+   ```markdown
+   <!--
+   https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/releases/tag/v<new_version>
+   -->
+   ```
+
+### 9. Verification and saving
+
+**Before saving, verify completeness:**
+
+**For ALL releases:**
+- [ ] Step 5 completed: **ALL commits included** (including merge commits and backports) - do not skip any commits
+- [ ] Step 5 completed: **Backports identified and handled correctly** - original PR author used, both original and backport PR numbers included
+- [ ] Step 6 completed: Website repository checked for documentation changes WITH authors and PR links via GitHub CLI
+- [ ] Step 6 completed: **ALL** optional repositories (talm, boot-to-talos, cozyhr, cozy-proxy) checked for tags during release period
+- [ ] Step 6 completed: For ALL commits from additional repos, GitHub username obtained via GitHub CLI (not skipped). For commits with PR numbers, PR author used via `gh pr view` (not commit author)
+- [ ] Step 7 completed: For EVERY PR in main repo (including backports), PR author obtained via `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --json author --jq .author.login` (not skipped or assumed). Commit author NOT used - always use PR author
+- [ ] Step 7 completed: **Backports verified** - for each backport PR, original PR found and original PR author used in changelog
+- [ ] Step 8 completed: Contributors list generated
+- [ ] All commits from main repository included (including merge commits)
+- [ ] User impact described for each change
+- [ ] Format matches existing changelogs
+
+**For patch releases:**
+- [ ] All commits from the release period are included (including merge commits with backports)
+- [ ] PR numbers match commit messages
+- [ ] Backports are properly identified and linked to original PRs
+
+**For minor releases (vX.Y.0):**
+- [ ] All changes from patch releases (vX.Y.1, vX.Y.2, etc.) are included
+- [ ] Contributors section is present and complete
+- [ ] Full Changelog link references previous minor version (vX.Y.0), not last patch
+- [ ] Verify all PRs from patch releases are included:
+  ```bash
+  # Extract and compare PR numbers
+  PATCH_PRS=$(grep -hE "#[0-9]+" docs/changelogs/v<previous_minor>.*.md | grep -oE "#[0-9]+" | sort -u)
+  MINOR_PRS=$(grep -hE "#[0-9]+" docs/changelogs/v<new_minor>.0.md | grep -oE "#[0-9]+" | sort -u)
+  MISSING=$(comm -23 <(echo "$PATCH_PRS") <(echo "$MINOR_PRS"))
+  
+  if [ -n "$MISSING" ]; then
+    echo "Missing PRs from patch releases:"
+    echo "$MISSING"
+    # For each missing PR, check if it's a backport and verify change is included by description
+  fi
+  ```
+
+**Only proceed to save after all checkboxes are verified!**
+
+**Save the changelog:**
+Save the changelog to file `docs/changelogs/v<version>.md` according to the version for which the changelog is being generated.
+
+### Important notes
+
+- **After fetch with --force** local tags are up-to-date, use them for work
+- **For release branches** always check original commits in `main` to get correct PR numbers
+- **Preserve the format** of existing changelog files
+- **Group related changes** logically
+- **Be accurate** in describing changes, based on actual commit diffs
+- **Check for PR numbers** and commit authors
+- **CRITICAL - Get authorship from PR, not from commit**: 
+  - **ALWAYS use PR author**: Extract PR number from commit message, then use `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --json author --jq .author.login` to get the PR author
+  - Do NOT use commit author - the commit author (especially for squash/merge commits) is usually the person who merged the PR, not the person who wrote the code
+  - For commits without PR numbers (rare), fall back to commit author: `gh api repos/cozystack/cozystack/commits/<commit_hash> --jq '.author.login'`
+  - **Workflow**: Extract PR numbers from commits → Use `gh pr view` for each PR → Get PR author (the person who wrote the code)
+  - Example: For PR #1507, the commit author is `@kvaps` (who merged), but `gh pr view 1507 --json author --jq .author.login` correctly returns `@lllamnyp` (who wrote the code)
+  - Check existing changelogs for author name to GitHub username mappings
+  - **Validation**: Before adding to changelog, always verify the author using `gh pr view` - never use commit author for PRs
+-  **MANDATORY**: Always describe user impact: Every changelog entry must explain how the change affects end users, not just what was changed technically. Focus on user value and practical implications.
+
+**Required steps:**
+
+- **Additional repositories (Step 6) - MANDATORY**: 
+  - **⚠️ CRITICAL**: Always check the **website** repository for documentation changes during the release period. This is a required step and MUST NOT be skipped.
+  - **⚠️ CRITICAL**: You MUST check ALL optional repositories (talm, boot-to-talos, cozyhr, cozy-proxy) for tags during the release period. Do NOT skip any repository even if you think there might not be tags.
+  - **CRITICAL**: For ALL entries from additional repositories (website and optional), you MUST:
+    - **MANDATORY**: Extract PR number from commit message first
+    - **MANDATORY**: For commits with PR numbers, ALWAYS use `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --repo cozystack/<repo> --json author --jq .author.login` to get PR author (not commit author)
+    - **MANDATORY**: Only for commits without PR numbers (rare), fallback to: `gh api repos/cozystack/<repo>/commits/<hash> --jq '.author.login'`
+    - **MANDATORY**: Do NOT skip getting GitHub username via CLI - do this for EVERY commit
+    - **MANDATORY**: Do NOT use commit author for PRs - always use PR author
+    - Include PR link or commit hash reference
+    - Format: `* **[repo] Description**: details ([**@username**](https://github.com/username) in cozystack/repo#123)`
+  - For **optional repositories** (talm, boot-to-talos, cozyhr, cozy-proxy), you MUST check ALL of them for tags during the release period. Use the loop provided in Step 6 to check each repository systematically.
+  - When including changes from additional repositories, use the format: `[repo-name] Description` and link to the repository's PR/issue if available
+  - **Prefer PR numbers over commit hashes**: For commits from additional repositories, extract PR number from commit message using GitHub API. Use PR format (`cozystack/website#123`) instead of commit hash (`cozystack/website@abc1234`) when available
+  - **Never add entries without author and PR/commit reference**: Every entry from additional repositories must have both author and link
+  - Group changes from additional repositories with main repository changes, or create separate subsections if there are many changes from a specific repository
+
+- **PR author verification (Step 7) - MANDATORY**:
+  - **⚠️ CRITICAL**: You MUST get the author from PR using `gh pr view`, NOT from commit
+  - **⚠️ CRITICAL**: Extract PR numbers from commit messages, then use `gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --json author --jq .author.login` for each PR
+  - **⚠️ CRITICAL**: Do NOT use commit author - commit author is usually the person who merged, not the person who wrote the code
+  - **⚠️ CRITICAL**: Do NOT skip this step for any PR, even if the author seems obvious
+  - For commits without PR numbers (rare), fall back to: `gh api repos/cozystack/cozystack/commits/<hash> --jq '.author.login'`
+  - This ensures correct attribution and prevents errors in changelog entries (especially important for squash/merge commits)
+
+- **Contributors list (Step 8)**: 
+  - For minor releases (vX.Y.0): You must generate a list of all contributors and identify first-time contributors.
+  - For patch releases: Contributors section is optional, but recommended for significant releases
+  - Extract GitHub usernames from PR links in commit messages or changelog entries
+  - This helps recognize community contributions and welcome new contributors
+- **Minor releases (vX.Y.0)**:
+  - Must include **all changes** from patch releases of the previous minor version (e.g., v0.38.0 includes all changes from v0.37.1, v0.37.2, v0.37.3, etc.)
+  - The "Full Changelog" link must reference the previous minor release (v0.37.0...v0.38.0), NOT the last patch release (v0.37.8...v0.38.0)
+  - This ensures users can see the complete set of changes for the entire minor version cycle
+  - **Verification step**: After creating the changelog, extract all PR numbers from patch release changelogs and verify they all appear in the minor release changelog to prevent missing entries
+  - **Backport handling**: Patch releases may contain backports with different PR numbers (e.g., #1624 in patch release vs #1622 in main). For minor releases, use original PR numbers from main when available, but verify that all changes from patch releases are included regardless of PR number differences
+  - **Content verification**: Don't rely solely on PR number matching - verify that change descriptions from patch releases appear in the minor release changelog, as backports may have different PR numbers

+# Instructions for AI Agents
+
+Guidelines for AI agents contributing to Cozystack.
+
+## Checklist for Creating a Pull Request

+## How to Commit and Create Pull Requests
+
+### 1. Make Your Changes
+
+Edit the necessary files in the codebase.
+
+### 2. Commit with Proper Format
+
+Use the `[component]` prefix and `--signoff` flag:
+
+```bash
+git commit --signoff -m "[component] Brief description of changes"
+```
+
+**Component prefixes:**
+- System: `[dashboard]`, `[platform]`, `[cilium]`, `[kube-ovn]`, `[linstor]`, `[fluxcd]`, `[cluster-api]`
+- Apps: `[postgres]`, `[mariadb]`, `[redis]`, `[kafka]`, `[clickhouse]`, `[virtual-machine]`, `[kubernetes]`
+- Other: `[tests]`, `[ci]`, `[docs]`, `[maintenance]`
+
+**Examples:**
+```bash
+git commit --signoff -m "[dashboard] Add config hash annotations to restart pods on config changes"
+git commit --signoff -m "[postgres] Update operator to version 1.2.3"
+git commit --signoff -m "[docs] Add installation guide"
+```
+
+### 3. Rebase on upstream/main (if needed)
+
+If your branch has extra commits, clean it up:
+
+```bash
+# Fetch latest
+git fetch upstream
+
+# Create clean branch from upstream/main
+git checkout -b my-feature upstream/main
+
+# Cherry-pick only your commit
+git cherry-pick <your-commit-hash>
+
+# Force push to your branch
+git push -f origin my-feature:my-branch-name
+```
+
+### 4. Push Your Branch
+
+```bash
+git push origin <branch-name>
+```
+
+### 5. Create Pull Request
+
+Write the PR body to a temporary file:
+
+```bash
+cat > /tmp/pr_body.md << 'EOF'
+## What this PR does
+
+Brief description of the changes.
+
+Changes:
+- Change 1
+- Change 2
+
+### Release note
+
+```release-note
+[component] Description for changelog
+```
+EOF
+```
+
+Create the PR:
+
+```bash
+gh pr create --title "[component] Brief description" --body-file /tmp/pr_body.md
+```
+
+Clean up:
+
+```bash
+rm /tmp/pr_body.md
+```
+
+## Addressing AI Bot Reviewer Comments
+
+When the user asks to fix comments from AI bot reviewers (like Qodo, Copilot, etc.):
+
+### 1. Get PR Comments
+
+View all comments on the pull request:
+
+```bash
+gh pr view <PR-number> --comments
+```
+
+Or for the current branch:
+
+```bash
+gh pr view --comments
+```
+
+### 2. Review Each Comment Carefully
+
+**Important**: Do NOT blindly apply all suggestions. Each comment should be evaluated:
+
+- **Consider context** - Does the suggestion make sense for this specific case?
+- **Check project conventions** - Does it align with Cozystack patterns?
+- **Evaluate impact** - Will this improve code quality or introduce issues?
+- **Question validity** - AI bots can be wrong or miss context
+
+**When to apply:**
+- ✅ Legitimate bugs or security issues
+- ✅ Clear improvements to code quality
+- ✅ Better error handling or edge cases
+- ✅ Conformance to project conventions
+
+**When to skip:**
+- ❌ Stylistic preferences that don't match project style
+- ❌ Over-engineering simple code
+- ❌ Changes that break existing patterns
+- ❌ Suggestions that show misunderstanding of the code
+
+### 3. Apply Valid Fixes
+
+Make changes addressing the valid comments. Use your judgment.
+
+### 4. Leave Changes Uncommitted
+
+**Critical**: Do NOT commit or push the changes automatically.
+
+Leave the changes in the working directory so the user can:
+- Review the fixes
+- Decide whether to commit them
+- Make additional adjustments if needed
+
+```bash
+# After making changes, show status but DON'T commit
+git status
+git diff
+```
+
+The user will commit and push when ready.
+
+## Code Review Comments
+
+When asked to fix code review comments, **always work only with unresolved (open) comments**. Resolved comments should be ignored as they have already been addressed.
+
+### Getting Unresolved Review Comments
+
+Use GitHub GraphQL API to fetch only unresolved review comments from a pull request:
+
+```bash
+gh api graphql -F owner=cozystack -F repo=cozystack -F pr=<PR_NUMBER> -f query='
+query($owner: String!, $repo: String!, $pr: Int!) {
+  repository(owner: $owner, name: $repo) {
+    pullRequest(number: $pr) {
+      reviewThreads(first: 100) {
+        nodes {
+          isResolved
+          comments(first: 100) {
+            nodes {
+              id
+              path
+              line
+              author { login }
+              bodyText
+              url
+              createdAt
+            }
+          }
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}' --jq '.data.repository.pullRequest.reviewThreads.nodes[] | select(.isResolved == false) | .comments.nodes[]'
+```
+
+### Filtering for Unresolved Comments
+
+The key filter is `select(.isResolved == false)` which ensures only unresolved review threads are processed. Each thread can contain multiple comments, but if the thread is resolved, all its comments should be ignored.
+
+### Working with Review Comments
+
+1. **Fetch unresolved comments** using the GraphQL query above
+2. **Parse the results** to identify:
+   - File path (`path`)
+   - Line number (`line` or `originalLine`)
+   - Comment text (`bodyText`)
+   - Author (`author.login`)
+3. **Address each unresolved comment** by:
+   - Locating the relevant code section
+   - Making the requested changes
+   - Ensuring the fix addresses the concern raised
+4. **Do NOT process resolved comments** - they have already been handled
+
+### Example: Compact List of Unresolved Comments
+
+For a quick overview of unresolved comments:
+
+```bash
+gh api graphql -F owner=cozystack -F repo=cozystack -F pr=<PR_NUMBER> -f query='
+query($owner: String!, $repo: String!, $pr: Int!) {
+  repository(owner: $owner, name: $repo) {
+    pullRequest(number: $pr) {
+      reviewThreads(first: 100) {
+        nodes {
+          isResolved
+          comments(first: 100) {
+            nodes {
+              path
+              line
+              author { login }
+              bodyText
+            }
+          }
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}' --jq '.data.repository.pullRequest.reviewThreads.nodes[] | select(.isResolved == false) | .comments.nodes[] | "\(.path):\(.line // "N/A") - \(.author.login): \(.bodyText[:150])"'
+```
+
+### Important Notes
+
+- **REST API limitation**: The REST endpoint `/pulls/{pr}/reviews` returns review summaries, not individual review comments. Use GraphQL API for accessing `reviewThreads` with `isResolved` status.
+- **Thread-based resolution**: Comments are organized in threads. If a thread is resolved (`isResolved: true`), ignore all comments in that thread.
+- **Always filter**: Never process comments from resolved threads, even if they appear in the results.
+
+### Example Workflow
+
+```bash
+# Get PR comments
+gh pr view 1234 --comments
+
+# Review comments and identify valid ones
+# Make necessary changes to address valid comments
+# ... edit files ...
+
+# Show what was changed (but don't commit)
+git status
+git diff
+
+# Tell the user what was fixed and what was skipped
+```
+
+## Git Permissions
+
+Request these permissions when needed:
+- `git_write` - For commit, rebase, cherry-pick, branch operations
+- `network` - For push, fetch, pull operations
+
+## Common Issues
+
+**PR has extra commits?**  
+→ Rebase on `upstream/main` and cherry-pick only your commits
+
+**Wrong commit message?**  
+→ `git commit --amend --signoff -m "[correct] message"` then `git push -f`
+
+**Need to update PR?**  
+→ `gh pr edit <number> --body "new description"`

+
+
+## Feature Highlights
+
+Release v0.36.0 focuses on the stability, observability, and flexible configuration of managed applications.
+
+### Per-Namespace Resource Limits for Tenants
+
+Resource management for Cozystack tenants has received a final patch and is now graduated to a stable feature.
+Platform administrators can define explicit CPU, memory, and storage limits for each tenant's namespace 
+via the tenant specification.
+This prevents any single tenant from consuming more than their share of cluster resources,
+ensuring cluster stability and a guaranteed service level for each tenant.
+
+### Kube-OVN Cluster Health Monitor
+
+A new component called the Kube-OVN Plunger continuously monitors the health of the Kube-OVN network's central control cluster.
+This external agent gathers OVN cluster status and consensus information, exposing Prometheus metrics and live events stream via SSE.
+As a result, it provides much better visibility of the virtual network layer and helps maintain a reliable and observable network in Cozystack.
+This change opens the road to automated Kube-OVN database operations and recovery in specific corner cases.
+
+### Configurable CoreDNS Addon for Kubernetes
+
+Cozystack introduces a dedicated CoreDNS addon for managing cluster DNS with greater flexibility.
+CoreDNS is now deployed via a Helm chart and can be tuned through custom values in the cluster specification,
+including autoscaling, replica count, and adjusting service IP.
+CoreDNS can now be configured in the dashboard and using Cozystack API.
+
+### Granular SeaweedFS Service Configuration
+
+The SeaweedFS S3 storage service in Cozystack is now far more configurable at a component level.
+The Helm chart for SeaweedFS now includes independent configuration for each component and its resources.
+It includes the master nodes, volume servers with support for multiple zones, filers, the backing database, and the S3 gateway.
+Administrators can set per-component parameters such as the number of replicas, available CPU, memory, and storage size.
+
+### Server-side Encryption for S3
+
+Cozystack v0.36.0 includes SeaweedFS 3.97, bringing support for server-side encryption of S3 buckets (SSE-C, SSE-KMS, and SSE-S3).
+
+**Breaking change:** upon updating Cozystack, SeaweedFS will be updated to a newer version, and the services specification
+will be converted to the new format.
+
+### Custom Resource Profiles for Ingress Controller
+
+NGINX controller is now configurable on a per-replica basis.
+Configurations include the ingress controller pods' CPU and memory requests/limits, either with direct values or using one of the available presets.
+
+### Cozystack REST API Documentation
+
+[Cozystack REST API reference](https://cozystack.io/docs/cozystack-api/rest/) is now published on the website.
+It includes endpoints and methods for listing, creating, updating, and removing each managed application, defined as Cozystack CRD.
+
+
+### Built-in LLDP-Based Neighbor Discovery in Talos
+
+Cozystack now includes the LLDPD extension in its Talos OS image, enabling Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) out of the box.
+This means each node can automatically discover and advertise its network neighbors and topology without any manual setup.
+
+### Use external IP for Egress Traffic in VMs
+
+When a virtual machine has an external IP assigned to it, it will now always use it for egress traffic, independently of the external method used.
+
+## Major Features and Improvements
+
+* [talos] Add LLDPD (`ghcr.io/siderolabs/lldpd`) as a built-in system extension, enabling LLDP-based neighbor discovery out of the box. (@lllamnyp in https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/pull/1351 and https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/pull/1360)

+# Cozystack v0.37 — “OpenAPI Dashboard & Lineage Everywhere”
+
+We’ve shipped a big usability push this cycle: a brand-new **OpenAPI-driven dashboard**, lineage labeling across core resource types, and several reliability improvements to smooth upgrades from 0.36→ 0.37. Below are the highlights and the full categorized lists.
+
+## Highlights
+
+* **New OpenAPI-based Dashboard** replaces the old UI, adds module-aware navigation, dynamic branding, and richer Kubernetes resource views ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1269, #1463, #1460).
+* **Lineage Webhook** tags Pods, PVCs, Services, Ingresses, and Secrets, adding labels referencing the managing Cozystack application ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1448, #1452, #1477, #1486, #1497; [**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1454).
+* **Smoother upgrades** with installer and migration hardening, decoupled CRDs vs. API server ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1494, #1498; [**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1506).
+* **Operations quality**: Kubernetes tests with smarter waits/readiness checks ([**@IvanHunters**](https://github.com/IvanHunters) in #1485).
+
+---
+
+## New features
+
+### Dashboard
+
+* Introduce the OpenAPI-based dashboard and controller; implement TenantNamespace, TenantModules, TenantSecret/SecretsTable resources ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1269).
+* Module-aware navigation, richer detail views (Services/Secrets/Ingresses), improved sidebars; “Tenant Modules” grouping ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1463).
+* Dynamic branding via cluster config (tenant name, footer/title, logo/icon SVGs) ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1460).
+* Dashboard: fix namespace listing for unprivileged users and stabilize streamed requests; build-time patching ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1456).
+* Dashboard UX set: marketplace hides module resources; consistent navigation/links; prefill “name” in forms; ingress factory; formatted TenantNamespaces tables ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1463).
+* **Dashboard**: list modules reliably; remove Tenant from Marketplace; fix field override while typing ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1501, #1503).
+* **Dashboard**: correct API group for applications; sidebars; disable auto-expand; fix `/docs` redirect ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1463, #1465, #1462).
+* **Dashboard**: show Secrets with empty values correctly ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1480).
+* Dashboard configuration refactor: generate static resources at startup; auto-cleanup stale objects; higher controller client throughput ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1457).
+
+### Migration to v0.37
+* **Installer/Migrations**: prevent unintended deletion of platform resource definitions; resilient timestamping; tolerant annotations; stronger migrate-then-reconcile flow ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1475; Andrei Kvapil & [**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1498).
+* Installer hardening for **migration #20**: packaged apply, ordered waits/readiness checks, RFC3339(nano) stamping; Helm in installer image (Andrei Kvapil & [**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1498).
+* **Decoupled API & CozyRDs**: You can now upgrade the Cozystack API server independently of CRDs/CozyRD instances, easing 0.36 → 0.37 migrations ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1494).
+* **Migration #20**: The installer runs migration from packaged Helm charts with ordered waits/readiness checks; annotations are tolerant; timestamps are environment-robust (Andrei Kvapil & [**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1498; [**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1475).
+
+### Webhook / Lineage
+
+* Add a lineage mutating webhook to auto-label Pods/Secrets/PVCs/Ingresses/WorkloadMonitors with owning app ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1448, #1497, [**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1454).
+* **Name-based** selectors for Secret visibility (templates supported) ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1477).
+* Select **Services** and **Ingresses** in CRDs/API; treat them as user-facing when configured ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1486).
+* **VictoriaMetrics integration**: Lineage labels are explicitly set on VM resources; `managedMetadata` is configured to avoid controller “fights” over labels ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1452).
+* Webhook **excludes** `default` and `kube-system` to avoid unintended mutations (part of the installer/migration hardening by Andrei Kvapil & [**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1498).
+
+### API / Platform
+
+* Decouple the Cozystack API from Cozystack Resource Definitions to allow independent upgrades ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1494).
+* Add **label selectors** to app definitions for Secret include/exclude ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1447).
+
+### Monitoring & Ops
+
+* Reduce node labelsets in target relabeling configs on cadvisor/kubelet metrics to reduce cardinality while keeping useful CPU metrics ([**@IvanHunters**](https://github.com/IvanHunters) in #1455).
+
+### Storage & Backups
+
+* PVC expansion in tenant clusters via KubeVirt CSI resizer; RBAC updates (Klinch0 in #1438).
+* Velero upgraded to **v1.17.0**; node agent enabled by default and a raft of usability features ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1484).
+
+### Kubernetes/tests & Tooling
+
+* Smarter Kubernetes test flows: node readiness checks, kubelet version validation, longer rollout waits, per-component readiness ([**@IvanHunters**](https://github.com/IvanHunters) in #1485).
+
+### UI/Icons
+
+* New **VM-Disk** SVG icon ([**@kvapsova**](https://github.com/kvapsova) in #1435).
+
+---
+
+## Improvements (minor)
+
+* Make the **Info** app deploy irrespective of OIDC settings ([**klinch0**](https://github.com/klinch0) in #1474).
+* Move SA token Secret creation to **Info** app ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1446).
+* Explicitly set lineage labels for VictoriaMetrics resources ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1452).
+
+---
+
+## Bug fixes
+
+* **Kubernetes**: fix MachineDeployment `spec.selector` mismatch to ensure proper targeting ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1502).
+* **Old dashboard**: FerretDB spec typo prevented deploy/display ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1440).
+* **SeaweedFS**: fix per-zone size fallback for multi-DC volumes; make migrations more robust ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1476, #1430).
+* **CoreDNS**: pin tag to v1.12.4 ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1469).
+* **OIDC**: avoid creating KeycloakRealmGroup before operator API is available ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1495).
+* **Kafka**: disable noisy alerts when Kafka isn’t deployed ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1488).

+# Cozystack v0.38 — "VPC & Enhanced Networking"
+
+This release introduces **Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)** support, enabling advanced networking capabilities for tenant applications. We've also added VNC console support in the dashboard, made Kubernetes worker versions configurable, and delivered numerous improvements and fixes across the platform.
+
+### Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) Networking
+
+Cozystack v0.38.0 introduces Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) support, enabling platform administrators to create isolated network segments for tenant applications. VPCs provide network isolation and allow fine-grained control over network topology, subnets, and routing. Each VPC can contain multiple subnets, and administrators can configure subnet details including IP ranges, gateway settings, and DNS configuration.
+
+The VPC feature integrates seamlessly with the Cozystack dashboard, allowing users to view and manage VPCs and their subnets through an intuitive interface. Subnet details are exposed in the dashboard as tables, making it easy to understand network configuration at a glance. VPC configuration is stored in ConfigMaps with predictable naming, ensuring reliable access to subnet information.
+
+This feature is particularly valuable for multi-tenant environments where network isolation is critical, and for applications that require specific network configurations or routing rules.
+
+### VNC Console for Virtual Machines
+
+The Cozystack dashboard now includes a built-in VNC console for virtual machines, enabling users to access VM console directly from the web interface without requiring external tools. This feature provides immediate access to virtual machine consoles for troubleshooting, configuration, and maintenance tasks. The VNC console integration streamlines VM management workflows and improves the user experience by keeping all VM operations within the Cozystack dashboard.
+
+## Highlights
+
+* **Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)**: New VPC system module enables advanced networking with Multus CNI, subnet management, and network isolation for tenant applications ([**@nbykov0**](https://github.com/nbykov0) in #1543; [**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1587, #1590, #1600, #1621, #1638).
+* **VNC Console in Dashboard**: Users can now access virtual machine consoles directly from the dashboard, improving VM management experience ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1627).
+* **Configurable Kubernetes Worker Versions**: Platform administrators can now configure Kubernetes worker node versions independently, providing more flexibility in cluster management ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1619).
+* **Security Enhancements**: Multiple security improvements including HTTPS-only enforcement for API, closed Flux Operator ports, and Redis security updates ([**@IvanHunters**](https://github.com/IvanHunters) in #1580, #1581, #1582).
+* **Cozy-lib Improvements**: Enhanced flatten function with better ResourceQuota handling and nil resource support ([**@lllamnyp**](https://github.com/lllamnyp) in #1647; [**@IvanHunters**](https://github.com/IvanHunters) in #1642; [**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1607).

+## Features and Improvements
+
+* **[virtual-machine,vm-instance] Add nodeAffinity for Windows VMs based on scheduling config**: Added nodeAffinity configuration to virtual-machine and vm-instance charts to support dedicated nodes for Windows VMs. When `dedicatedNodesForWindowsVMs` is enabled in the `cozystack-scheduling` ConfigMap, Windows VMs are scheduled on nodes with label `scheduling.cozystack.io/vm-windows=true`, while non-Windows VMs prefer nodes without this label ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1693, #1744).
+* **[cilium] Enable automatic pod rollout on configmap updates**: Cilium and Cilium operator pods now automatically restart when the cilium-config ConfigMap is updated, ensuring configuration changes are applied immediately without manual intervention ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1728, #1745).

+
+## Fixes
+
+* **[apps] Refactor apiserver to use typed objects and fix UnstructuredList GVK**: Refactored the apiserver REST handlers to use typed objects (`appsv1alpha1.Application`) instead of `unstructured.Unstructured`, eliminating the need for runtime conversions and simplifying the codebase. Additionally, fixed an issue where `UnstructuredList` objects were using the first registered kind from `typeToGVK` instead of the kind from the object's field when multiple kinds are registered with the same Go type. This fix includes the upstream fix from kubernetes/kubernetes#135537 ([**@kvaps**](https://github.com/kvaps) in #1679, #1709).

+# Cozystack v0.40 — "Enhanced Storage & Platform Architecture"
+
+This release introduces LINSTOR scheduler for optimal pod placement, SeaweedFS traffic locality, a new valuesFrom-based configuration mechanism, auto-diskful for LINSTOR, automated version management systems, and numerous improvements across the platform.
+
+## Feature Highlights
+
+### LINSTOR Scheduler for Optimal Pod Placement
+
+Cozystack now includes a custom Kubernetes scheduler extender that works alongside the default kube-scheduler to optimize pod placement on nodes with LINSTOR storage. When a pod requests LINSTOR-backed storage, the scheduler communicates with the LINSTOR controller to find nodes that have local replicas of the requested volumes, prioritizing placement on nodes with existing data to minimize network traffic and improve I/O performance.
+
+The scheduler includes an admission webhook that automatically routes pods using LINSTOR CSI volumes to the custom scheduler, ensuring seamless integration without manual configuration. This feature significantly improves performance for workloads using LINSTOR storage by reducing network latency and improving data locality.
+
+Learn more about LINSTOR in the [documentation](https://cozystack.io/docs/operations/storage/linstor/).
+
+### SeaweedFS Traffic Locality
+
+SeaweedFS has been upgraded to version 4.05 with new traffic locality capabilities that optimize S3 service traffic distribution. The update includes a new admin component with a web-based UI and authentication support, as well as a worker component for distributed operations. These enhancements improve S3 service performance and provide better visibility through enhanced Grafana dashboard panels for buckets, API calls, costs, and performance metrics.
+
+The traffic locality feature ensures that S3 requests are routed to the nearest available volume servers, reducing latency and improving overall performance for distributed storage operations. TLS certificate support for admin and worker components adds an extra layer of security for management operations.
+
+### ValuesFrom Configuration Mechanism
+
+Cozystack now uses FluxCD's valuesFrom mechanism to replace Helm lookup functions for configuration propagation. This architectural improvement provides cleaner config propagation and eliminates the need for force reconcile controllers. Configuration from ConfigMaps (cozystack, cozystack-branding, cozystack-scheduling) and namespace service references (etcd, host, ingress, monitoring, seaweedfs) is now centrally managed through a `cozystack-values` Secret in each namespace.
+
+This change simplifies Helm chart templates by replacing complex lookup functions with direct value references, improves configuration consistency, and reduces the reconciliation overhead. All HelmReleases now automatically receive cluster and namespace configuration through the valuesFrom mechanism, making configuration management more transparent and maintainable.
+
+### Auto-diskful for LINSTOR
+
+The LINSTOR integration now includes automatic diskful functionality that converts diskless nodes to diskful when they hold DRBD resources in Primary state for an extended period (30 minutes). This feature addresses scenarios where workloads are scheduled on nodes without local storage replicas by automatically creating local disk replicas when needed, improving I/O performance for long-running workloads.
+
+When enabled with cleanup options, the system can automatically remove disk replicas that are no longer needed, preventing storage waste from temporary replicas. This intelligent storage management reduces network traffic for frequently accessed data while maintaining efficient storage utilization.
+
+### Automated Version Management Systems
+
+Cozystack now includes automated version management systems for PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, MariaDB, and Redis applications. These systems automatically track upstream versions and provide mechanisms for automated version updates, ensuring that platform users always have access to the latest stable versions while maintaining compatibility with existing deployments.
+
+The version management systems integrate with the Cozystack API and dashboard, providing administrators with visibility into available versions and update paths. This infrastructure sets the foundation for future automated upgrade workflows and version compatibility management.

+# Cozystack v1.0.0-alpha.1 — "Package-Based Architecture"
+
+This alpha release introduces a fundamental architectural shift from HelmRelease bundles to Package-based deployment managed by the new cozystack-operator. It includes a comprehensive backup system with Velero integration, significant API changes that rename the core CRD, Flux sharding for improved tenant workload distribution, enhanced monitoring capabilities, and various improvements to virtual machines, tenants, and the build workflow.
+
+> **⚠️ Alpha Release Warning**: This is a pre-release version intended for testing and early adoption. Breaking changes may occur before the stable v1.0.0 release.
+
+## Breaking Changes
+
+### API Rename: CozystackResourceDefinition → ApplicationDefinition
+
+The `CozystackResourceDefinition` CRD has been renamed to `ApplicationDefinition` for better clarity and consistency. This change affects:
+- All Go types and controller files
+- CRD Helm chart renamed from `cozystack-resource-definition-crd` to `application-definition-crd`
+- All cozyrds YAML manifests updated to use `kind: ApplicationDefinition`
+
+A migration (v24) is included to handle the transition automatically.
+
+### Package-Based Deployment
+
+The platform now uses Package resources managed by cozystack-operator instead of HelmRelease bundles. Key changes:
+- Restructured values.yaml with full configuration support (networking, publishing, authentication, scheduling, branding, resources)
+- Added values-isp-full.yaml and values-isp-hosted.yaml for bundle variants
+- Package resources replace old HelmRelease templates
+- PackageSources moved from sources/ to templates/sources/
+- Migration script `hack/migrate-to-version-1.0.sh` provided for converting ConfigMaps to Package resources
