 # Release History
 
-## 1.16.7 (Unreleased)
+## 1.16.9 (Unreleased)
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+- Updated `EVALUATOR_NAME_METRICS_MAPPINGS` so `document_retrieval` and `rouge_score` report single primary metrics (`document_retrieval`, `rouge`), with previous sub-metrics now represented in each evaluator's `*_properties` payload.
+
+### Bugs Fixed
+
+- Fixed `format_llm_response` raising `UnboundLocalError` when `inputs` was not provided by ensuring `sample_input` is always initialized.
+
+## 1.16.8 (2026-05-19)
+
+### Features Added
+
+- App Insights logging now forwards arbitrary evaluator-specific keys from each event's `properties` payload as a single `gen_ai.evaluation.properties` JSON attribute (carried inside `internal_properties`). Previously only the four red-team keys (`attack_success`, `attack_technique`, `attack_complexity`, `attack_success_threshold`) were forwarded; structured outputs such as rubric `dimension_scores` were silently dropped. Payloads larger than 7500 characters are replaced with a valid JSON marker (`{"truncated": true, "original_size_bytes": <n>}`) so consumers can always `json.loads` the value. Non-dict `properties` payloads are now safely ignored instead of raising in the red-team forwarder.

 - Added `status` field (`"completed"`, `"error"`, `"skipped"`) on evaluation result items to indicate evaluator execution outcome.
 - Added `skipped` and `errored` counts to `result_counts` and `per_testing_criteria_results` in AOAI evaluation summaries.
 - Added `skipped` to `ResultCount` and `skipped`/`errored` to `PerTestingCriteriaResult` typed contracts.

 - Fixed `_get_metric_result` prefix matching where shorter metric names (e.g., `xpia`) could match before longer, more-specific ones (e.g., `xpia_manipulated_content`). Now sorts by length descending for correct longest-prefix matching.
 - Fixed non-dict `_properties` values from evaluators causing downstream issues. Values that are not dicts are now logged and dropped gracefully.
 - Fixed filename length error in `_inline_image` by catching OSError/ValueError during local path resolution and fall back to returning a text chunk instead of throwing.
-- Fixed `format_llm_response` raising `UnboundLocalError` when `inputs` was not provided by ensuring `sample_input` is always initialized.
