@@ -5,13 +5,138 @@ All notable changes to Stability Matrix will be documented in this file.
 The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
 and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning 2.0](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
 
-## [Unreleased - v2.15.8]
+## v2.16.0-pre.1
 ### Added
+- Added CivArchive model browser with details page, image viewer, version selector, trigger words, and in-app downloads with tracked progress
 - Added support for the civitai.red (mature-content) domain — NSFW CivitAI links now open and copy as civitai.red URLs, and pasting a civitai.red URL into the CivitAI model browser search works the same as a civitai.com URL
 ### Changed
 - The CivitAI base model type filter now uses CivitAI's official `/api/v1/enums` endpoint, with fallbacks to the previous technique and a built-in list, so the filter stays populated even if the CivitAI response format changes or the service is unreachable
 ### Fixed
+- Fixed CivitAI model browsing breaking during Discovery API outages — the browser now falls back to the direct CivitAI API when Discovery returns a server error, authentication failure, or times out
+- Fixed SwarmUI user settings (theme, output format, server configuration, etc.) and any user-added backend entries being overwritten when the install flow ran over an existing install — `Settings.fds` and `Backends.fds` are now merged with their existing contents instead of being rewritten from a stale template
+- Fixed pip requirements handling for environment-marker dependencies - thanks to @NeuralFault!
 - Fixed [#1608](https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityMatrix/issues/1608) - Crash when cdn fetch fails due to error notification not being shown on UI Thread - thanks to @NeuralFault!
+
+## v2.16.0-dev.3
+### Added
+- Added enable/disable toggle for environment variables in Settings, allowing variables to be temporarily disabled without deleting them
+- Added single-instance window activation signaling so reopening the app restores and focuses the existing desktop window instead of launching a duplicate instance
+- Added notification system with localizable banner and markdown detail dialog UI
+- Added warning in data directory selector when a OneDrive folder is selected
+- Added support in the Checkpoints page to distinguish standard updates from Early Access-only updates - thanks to @x0x0b!
+- Added torch index for Strix/Gorgon Point Ryzen AI APUs on Windows - thanks to @NeuralFault!
+- Added retry button to failed downloads - thanks to @NeuralFault!
+- Added new Membership support in Account Settings with Patreon migration prompt
+### Changed
+- Improved safetensor checkpoint classification to correctly detect UNet-only models for Wan Video, HiDream, Z-Image, Hunyuan3D, and diffusers-format Flux architectures, ensuring they are routed to the DiffusionModels folder
+- GGUF checkpoint downloads now go directly to the DiffusionModels folder instead of StableDiffusion
+- Configured portable Git to suppress detached HEAD advice messages
+- Settings file saves are now atomic to prevent corruption from interrupted writes
+- Updated torch indexes for A1111, ComfyUI, InvokeAI, and Forge-based UIs to rocm7.2 / cu128 depending on GPU - thanks to @NeuralFault!
+- Replaced the "Become a Patron" footer button with "Support Us", linking to the new direct Lykos support page at lykos.ai/membership
+- Updated the prompt dialog shown when enabling features like Accelerated Model Discovery to use Lykos accounts instead of Patreon linking
+- Moved the Patreon connection in Account Settings to a new "Legacy Connections" section, only shown for users with an existing Patreon link
+- Localized previously hardcoded strings on the Account Settings page (menu items, descriptions, section headers) and added Japanese, Korean, German, and French translations
+### Fixed
+- Fixed the Package Manager "Add Package" teaching tip opening inopportunely while packages were still loading or after opening the add-package dialog
+- Fixed downloaded checkpoint going to StableDiffusion folder when a saved download preference existed, even for GGUF files that should always go to DiffusionModels
+- Fixed potential crash when adding metadata to malformed or non-PNG image data in Inference
+- Fixed non-Latin-1 characters (e.g. Japanese, Chinese, Korean, emoji) in image generation parameters being stored in PNG tEXt chunks, violating the PNG specification and causing character corruption (mojibake) in standard-compliant parsers. Non-Latin-1 content now uses spec-compliant iTXt chunks with proper UTF-8 encoding ([#1535](https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityMatrix/issues/1535))
+- Fixed an issue where `Align Your Steps` scheduler and Unet Loader workflows ignored Regional Prompting (and other addon) conditioning modifiers.
+- Fixed bold text not rendering in markdown dialogs on Windows 11 due to Avalonia 11.3.x variable font regression with Segoe UI Variable Text
+- Fixed Japanese text appearing compressed/squished in markdown dialogs by ensuring the bundled NotoSansJP font is used for CTextBlock rendering
+- Fixed ContentDialog title and buttons not using the correct font for Japanese locale (NotoSansJP) when shown as overlay
+- Added missing `CBold` and `CItalic` inline styles to the markdown style sheet
+- Fixed downloads failing with "The request message was already sent" when the server doesn't return Content-Length on the first attempt, caused by reusing a consumed HttpRequestMessage in the retry loop
+- Fixed downloads from sources that redirect to CivitAI/HuggingFace (e.g. CivArchive) failing with Unauthorized by resolving the redirect target URL and applying auth headers for the correct domain
+- Fixed dropdown menu overlayed in Inference UI Model Cards not being scrollable on Linux - thanks to @NeuralFault!
+- Fixed model downloads failing on VPN connections - thanks to @NeuralFault!
+- Fixed [#1598](https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityMatrix/issues/1598) - download progress bar showing 100% immediately for fresh downloads due to missing Content-Length fallback when Content-Range header is absent
+- Fixed [#1597](https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityMatrix/issues/1597) - reForge launch failing due to setuptools version
+- Fixed [#1596](https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityMatrix/issues/1596) - package installs and managed embedded Python startup being poisoned by inherited shell Python activation variables such as `PYTHONHOME`, `PYTHONPATH`, `VIRTUAL_ENV`, and Conda environment variables
+- Fixed [#1590](https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityMatrix/issues/1590) - Startup crash when settings file is corrupted. Settings files are now self-healing with automatic recovery from null bytes, truncated JSON, and missing brackets
+- Potentially fixed [#1578](https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityMatrix/issues/1578) - `SocketException: Address already in use` on Linux startup by cleaning stale interprocess socket files and reactivating the existing window
+- Fixed [#1397](https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityMatrix/issues/1397), [#610](https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityMatrix/issues/610) - duplicate pip package entries in results - thanks to @e-nord!
