+# Changelog
+
+## [1.0.0] - 2026-04-28
+
+First stable public milestone for Mr. Baseball Dynasty.
+
+### Launch Candidates
+
+- LC-1, save health: safe save-load recovery dialog and corrupt-save export/delete/retry path. PR #64, `e17edba`.
+- LC-2, guided start: first-ten-minute nudges for new saves without schema churn. PR #66, `1b51d2e`.
+- LC-3, mobile survival: touch targets, portrait layout, viewport audit. PR #68, `cd1f975`.
+- LC-4, stale-cache survival: service-worker update path and dead-chunk reload recovery. PR #65, `454076f`.
+- LC-5, bundle cleanup: eliminated circular worker chunks. PR #67, `dd45da4`.
+- LC-6, launch prep: README, changelog, landing copy, feedback path, version/meta prep. PR pending from `codex/launch-candidate-landing-feedback-lc6`.
+
+### Narrative Depth Waves
+
+- Wave 10: career capstone prose for awards, Hall of Fame, retirement, jersey legacy, farewell tours, and prospect/debut coverage. PR #63, `bc3b8e8`.
+- Wave 9: weekly cadence moments: hot/cold streaks, closer weeks, bench clutch weeks, bullpen overwork. Schema v33. PR #62, `41eb26d`.
+- Wave 8: player micro-arcs: injury returns, trade-deadline sparks, September call-ups. Schema v32. PR #61, `019a82d`.
+- Wave 7: position-group narratives for rotations, bullpens, and lineups. Schema v31. PR #60, `46a24ae`.
+- Wave 6: dynasty-marker moments: three-peats, era-ending collapses, perennial contenders. Schema v30. PR #59, `f8ae0b3`.
+- Wave 5: player-arc signature moments: redemption, late-career peak, rookie breakout. Schema v29. PR #55, `6f14ee7`.
+- Waves 3-4: expanded team identity, rivalry, milestone, nickname, and persisted-state fidelity work. Schemas v26-v27. PRs #46-#47.
+- Waves 1-2: team identity and rivalry foundation, season identity moments, and dashboard surfacing. Schemas v23-v25. PRs #34, #42, #43.
+- Waves 11-12 were deferred from v1 after the narrative freeze; v1.0.0 ships the stable Wave 10 narrative surface plus launch hardening.
+
+### Dashboard And League Surface
+
+- Career Retrospective, Season Story Reel, player arcs, Franchise Legacy, Chase Watch, Pennant Race, Award Race, and This Week in History shipped across PRs #37-#41, #54, #57, #58.
+- Team identity moments moved from backend-only state into GM Career, dashboard, and filterable UI surfaces. PRs #32-#36.
+- Mobile survival pass confirms 14 routes and 8 modal/sheet surfaces are touch-safe at 375x667, 360x640, and 414x896.
+
+### Simulation And Systems
+
+- Day One front-office hook shipped with AGM selection, org review, goals, budget, opening-day plan, development posture, crisis, and recap. PR #20 lineage, April 13 closeout.
+- Living league systems shipped before v1: GM relationships, multi-round negotiation, multi-team trades, league events, relationship effects, scouting uncertainty, breakout/regression, playoff momentum.
+- Trade deadline, arbitration, holdouts, finance calibration, schedule calibration, and reliability/calibration spines landed through PRs #23-#31.
+
+### Save And Determinism
+
+- Current save schema: v33.
+- v1.0.0 does not bump schema.
+- Save migrations remained additive through the launch cycle, with fixtures for each schema bump.
+- Randomness remains centralized through seeded PRNG paths; launch work did not touch sim RNG.
+
+### Verification State
+
+- Launch baseline: `origin/main` `cd1f9753a9fd530deaf0544720430186850b9918`.
+- Last known bundle ceilings after LC-5: worker raw 443 KB, gzip 143 KB.
+- Final LC-6 verification gate is tracked in `apps/web/docs/lc6-launch-prep-audit.md`.
+
+## Pre-1.0 Development Road
+
+### April 2026 Rebuild Phases
+
+- Phases 1-10: rebuilt the browser sim foundation, core league model, roster/economy loops, deterministic save/load, and first playable management surfaces.
+- Phases 11-14: expanded front-office systems, trade/finance/scouting depth, relationship effects, and worker-backed UI routing.
+- Phase 15: broadcast layer: game recaps, play-by-play, trade deadline theatre, draft buzz, ticker/news/consequence integration.
+- Phase 16: war-room polish: visualizations, lineup tools, Recharts/dnd-kit surfaces, production recovery polish, PWA icons, README, and deploy readiness.
+- Phase 18: public-facing app surface and MLB-proof rebrand: achievements, rivalries, owner intel, pulse, scenarios, original 32-team league identity.
+
+### Hardening Before Launch
+
+- Infra hardening added multi-year smoke gates and playtest narrative dumps. PR #48, `1c6d79d`.
+- Branch protection was enabled after a red-CI merge cascade, requiring `Typecheck -> Test -> Build`.
+- Bundle budget comments became the canonical journal for intentional ceiling changes.
+- Durable handoffs moved launch work into isolated worktrees with slice-level verification.

 # Mr. Baseball Dynasty
 
-A deep baseball franchise dynasty simulator. Build your front office, draft prospects, make trades, and pursue championships across decades.
+Browser-based baseball franchise dynasty simulation. Build a front office, make baseball decisions, and watch a deterministic league history unfold across seasons.
 
-**[PLAY NOW](https://kevinbigham.github.io/MBD/)**
+**Play:** [kevinbigham.github.io/MBD](https://kevinbigham.github.io/MBD/)

+## Screenshots
 
-## What Is This?
+![Save hub](apps/web/public/screenshots/landing-save-hub.jpg)
 
-Mr. Baseball Dynasty (MBD) is a browser-based, single-player baseball management sim. You take over as GM of a franchise and guide it through seasons of roster moves, scouting, player development, trades, free agency, and postseason runs. Every decision ripples forward through a fully deterministic simulation engine.
+![Dashboard desktop](apps/web/public/screenshots/dashboard-desktop.jpg)
 
-### Features
+![Pennant race board](apps/web/public/screenshots/pennant-race-board.jpg)
 
-- **Full Season Simulation** -- Day-by-day sim with box scores, standings, and stat tracking
-- **Scouting & Draft** -- Amateur draft, international free agents, scout assignments, prospect rankings
-- **Player Development** -- Minor league system, development curves, attribute progression
-- **Trade Engine** -- AI-driven trade proposals, counter-offers, deadline deals
-- **Free Agency** -- Bidding, contract negotiations, salary cap management
-- **GM Career Mode** -- Get hired, get fired, build a legacy across multiple franchises
-- **History & Records** -- Hall of Fame, record books, season archives, dynasty cards
-- **Press Room** -- Generated narratives, story arcs, press conferences
-- **War Room Visualizations** -- Recharts-powered charts, radar plots, sparklines, drag-and-drop lineup builder
-- **PWA Support** -- Install as an app on desktop or mobile, works offline
-- **Deterministic Engine** -- Seeded RNG means every save produces identical results on replay
+![Mobile dashboard](apps/web/public/screenshots/dashboard-mobile.jpg)
+
+## What It Is
+
+- A single-player franchise sim about roster building, player development, payroll pressure, scouting, trades, drafts, free agency, playoffs, and long-term consequences.
+- A deterministic save-driven simulation: the same seed and same decisions produce the same league.
+- A dynasty history machine: records, awards, rivalries, story reels, career retrospectives, and franchise memory accumulate over time.
+- A local-first browser game using IndexedDB saves and a web-worker sim engine.
+
+## What It Is Not
+
+- Not an MLB-licensed product.
+- Not fantasy sports, betting, packs, loot boxes, or pay-to-win.
+- Not a twitch game. Most value comes from planning, simming, reading the league, and making tradeoffs.
+- Not a finished forever-game. v1.0.0 is the first stable public milestone.
+
+## How To Play
+
+1. Open the live URL.
+2. Start a new dynasty from the Save Hub.
+3. Pick a club, choose Quick Start or Full Day One, and enter the front office.
+4. Advance by day, week, or month.
+5. Use the dashboard, roster, minors, draft, trade, finance, scouting, league, history, and press-room views to steer the franchise.
+6. Follow the dynasty through seasons: standings, playoff races, player arcs, awards, records, and owner pressure all compound.
 
 ## Tech Stack
 
-- **Frontend:** React 18, TypeScript (strict), Vite 6, Tailwind CSS
-- **State:** Zustand stores, Dexie (IndexedDB) for saves
-- **Simulation:** Pure TypeScript engine running in a Web Worker via Comlink
-- **Visualization:** Recharts, @dnd-kit
-- **Design:** Bloomberg Terminal aesthetic with custom design tokens
-- **Testing:** Vitest (700+ tests across sim-core and web app)
-- **Monorepo:** pnpm workspaces + Turborepo
+TypeScript strict mode, React 18, Vite 6, Tailwind CSS, Zustand, Dexie, Comlink web workers, pure-rand, Zod contracts, Vitest, pnpm, and Turbo.

+# LC-6 Launch Prep Audit
+
+Baseline verified on 2026-04-28 from `origin/main`:
+
+- `origin/main`: `cd1f9753a9fd530deaf0544720430186850b9918`
+- Latest commits: `#68` LC-3 mobile survival, `#67` LC-5 circular worker chunk cleanup, `#66` LC-2 guided start.
+- Save schema: `CURRENT_GAME_SNAPSHOT_VERSION = 33` in `packages/contracts/src/schemas/save.ts`.
+- Schema bump required for LC-6: none.
+
+## Audit Summary
+
+### 1. Current Landing Route
+
+- Root route `/` renders `SetupPage` via `apps/web/src/app/routes/index.tsx`.
+- Route label is `Save Hub`; there is no separate `apps/web/src/features/landing/` module yet.
+- Pre-save state: `SetupPage` shows "Welcome to Mr. Baseball Dynasty", "New Dynasty", and the five save slots. Empty slots say "Reserved for a fresh dynasty build."
+- Post-save state: the same route lists saved dynasties with continue/delete/branch controls. If a game is initialized in memory, it also shows "Return to Dashboard".
+- New saves route to `/onboarding`; existing saves route to `/dashboard`.
+
+### 2. Current README State
+
+- Last meaningful README update: `2026-04-10` (`1d7a9d5 feat: wire everything sweep`); original README added `2026-04-04`.
+- Present sections: title, one-paragraph overview, Play Now link, feature list, tech stack, architecture, development commands, license.
+- Missing for v1.0.0: screenshots, "what it is / what it is not" framing, concise play instructions, launch-candidate context, contributor verification command, credits.
+- Current length is under 200 lines but still reads like an internal feature inventory.
+
+### 3. Current CHANGELOG State
+
+- `CHANGELOG.md` does not exist at repo root.
+- Source of truth for phase/wave/LC history remains `.codex/MBD/changelog.md` and `.codex/MBD/status.md`; LC-6 will create a reader-facing root changelog.
+
+### 4. Current Feedback Path
+
+- No in-app feedback feature exists under `apps/web/src/features/feedback/`.
+- No `feedback`, `mailto`, `supabase`, `createClient`, `VITE_SUPABASE`, or `SUPABASE` wiring was found in app source or repo config.
+- LC-6 should ship the mailto fallback path unless Kevin separately adds Supabase configuration and a `feedback` table.
+- Privacy baseline: no analytics or user identity collection exists for feedback today.
+
+### 5. Version Strings
+
+- Root `package.json`: `0.0.1`.
+- `apps/web/package.json`: `0.0.1`.
+- Displayed app footer/about copy: `Mr. Baseball Dynasty v0.0.1` in `apps/web/src/features/settings/routes/SettingsPage.tsx`.
+- `apps/web/index.html` title/meta: "Mr. Baseball Dynasty" with pre-v1 descriptive copy and no `og:image`.
+- Acceptance target: `1.0.0` in package metadata and `v1.0.0` in displayed UI copy.
+
+### 6. Test Oracle
+
+- Landing/save hub render and create/continue flows: `apps/web/src/features/setup/routes/SetupPage.test.tsx`.
+- Route wiring for `/` and nested app routes: `apps/web/src/app/routes/index.test.tsx`.
+- Settings render and interactions: `apps/web/src/features/settings/routes/SettingsPage.test.tsx`.
+- Root app routing/error-boundary shell: `apps/web/src/app/App.test.tsx`.
+- Existing tests do not cover feedback because no feedback flow exists yet.
+
+## Slice Progress Ledger
+
+- Slice 1, baseline audit: complete.
+- Slice 2, screenshots: complete.
+- Slice 3, README rewrite: complete.
+- Slice 4, changelog: complete.
+- Slice 5, feedback widget: complete.
+- Slice 6, version bump and meta: complete.
+- Slice 7, final verification: complete.
+
+## Self-Critique Gate
+
+- Schema bump? Expected none. Current schema is v33.
+- RNG safety? No sim code touched. Feedback uses no RNG, `Math.random()`, or `Date.now()`.
+- Save compatibility? No save shape changes.
+- Tests run? Yes. See the final gate entries below.
+- Files outside scope? `apps/web/docs/lc6-launch-prep-audit.md` is required by the LC-6 slice plan. `package.json` at repo root was also bumped to `1.0.0` because the pre-edit audit identified it as a version string and the acceptance gate requires version consistency.
+- Version strings consistent? Yes: root `package.json`, `apps/web/package.json`, Settings About copy, and `apps/web/index.html` meta/title now show `1.0.0` / `v1.0.0`.
+- Feedback widget privacy? Implemented as explicit user-entered fields only. Mailto body includes type, report body, and optional contact only when typed; no user agent, URL, email scraping, or device fingerprint is included.
+
+## Test Results

+## Screenshot Notes
+
+- Total screenshot payload: `364 KB`, below the `1.5 MB` budget.
+- Live browser capture path: Vite dev server at `http://127.0.0.1:5173/MBD/`, Quick Start save, Marcus Chen AGM, real dashboard, real Pennant Race board, real Career Retrospective card, real mobile dashboard.
+- The short generated save did not expose a Season Story Reel trigger, matching the LC-3 audit note that dashboard story modals were not available in the day-zero browser save. `season-story-reel.jpg` is a styled reference using the existing Season Story Reel test fixture copy and the live app stylesheet; no source files were changed to create it.
+
