 The project follows a pragmatic versioning scheme while the app is still below `1.0.0`: minor versions mark coherent user-facing milestones; patch versions mark fixes and small improvements.

+## 0.3.2 — Multi-file merge queue release
+
+### Added
+
+- Added a multi-file merge queue for selecting, loading, reviewing, reordering, removing, and merging several incoming PDFs.
+- Added queue merge modes for replacing the current document, appending after the current workspace, or inserting at a chosen one-based page position.
+- Added merge queue helper tests for queue ordering, readiness checks, insert-position clamping, and merged filename generation.
+- Added PDF merge service tests for queue-only and base-plus-incoming merge results.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Changed the file picker to accept multiple PDFs. A single file with no active workspace still opens directly; otherwise selected files are added to the merge queue.
+- Replaced the old single-file merge card with a queue-based merge panel.
+- Merging now creates a new unsaved workspace from the materialized merge result, preserving the current workspace state before append/insert merges.
+- Bumped the app/package version to `0.3.2`.
+
+## 0.3.1 — Split ZIP export release
+
+### Added
+
+- Added browser-side ZIP packaging for split results via `src/pdf/pdfZipService.ts`.
+- Added a “Download all as ZIP” link next to the individual single-page split downloads.
+- Added tests for split-result ZIP creation, ZIP entry name sanitization/deduplication, ZIP filename generation, and empty-result handling.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Extended generated-output handling so split downloads can include both individual page files and one ZIP archive, with object URL cleanup handled by `usePdfGeneratedOutputs`.
+- Bumped the app/package version to `0.3.1`.
+
+## 0.3.0 — Selection workspace and maintenance release
+
+### Added
+
+- Added “Open selection as workspace” to create a new unsaved active workspace from the selected pages in current visual order.
+- Added selection-workspace helper tests for visual-order selection and derived naming.
+- Added TypeScript type-check, ESLint, Prettier, and aggregate `check` scripts.
+- Added ESLint flat config with TypeScript, React Hooks, React Refresh, browser, and Node config support.
+- Added Prettier configuration and ignore file.
+- Added Vite client type declarations for worker URL imports.
+- Added Vitest-based test scripts for one-off and watch-mode test runs.
+- Added pure tests for workspace command cloning, snapshot command stability, and serializable command record round-tripping.
+- Added hook-level tests for workspace load/replace behavior, command execution, undo, redo, history, redo clearing, dirty-state updates, and content-change callbacks.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Bumped the app/package version to `0.3.0`.
+- Switched to `@vitejs/plugin-react`.
+- Marked the package as an ES module package to remove the Vite CJS Node API deprecation warning during local tooling runs.
+- Ran Prettier across the project after adding the formatting configuration.
+- Split the former monolithic `ReorderPanel` into focused page-workspace components: `PageGrid`, `PageCard`, `PageSelectionToolbar`, `DropIndicator`, and `CopyPagesDialog`.
+- Kept drag/drop move, Ctrl/⌘ copy-drag, selection, rotation, deletion, preview opening, and copy-by-position behavior wired through the existing `ReorderPanel` API.
+- Extracted generated PDF download URL creation and cleanup for split, extract, and export results into `src/hooks/usePdfGeneratedOutputs.ts`.
+- Updated `ActionsPanel` to render prepared download objects instead of creating object URLs during render.
+- Extracted workspace page, selection, dirty-state, message, undo/redo history, command creation, command execution, and reset/load helpers from `App.tsx` into `src/workspace/useWorkspaceState.ts`.
+- Extracted thumbnail state, caching, invalidation, progressive rendering, rotation-aware rendering, copied-page thumbnail reuse, and thumbnail error reporting into `src/pdf/usePdfThumbnails.ts`.
+- Kept PDF loading, IndexedDB persistence, dialogs, preview, merge, export, and split orchestration in `App.tsx` for now.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Renamed Prettier config files to `.prettierrc.json` and `.prettierignore` so Prettier picks them up automatically.
+- Fixed existing `tsc --noEmit` failures for Vite worker URL imports and `Uint8Array`/`BlobPart` PDF byte handling.
+- Removed a duplicate copy-dialog validation error assignment in `ReorderPanel`.
+- Rotated thumbnails from loaded/saved workspaces are now regenerated from the actual current page rotation instead of relying only on rotation changes after load.
+- Copied/duplicated pages now receive thumbnails through the shared thumbnail hook/cache path instead of ad-hoc copy handling in `App.tsx`.
+
