# Tenzir Ship v0.2.0

This release improves table and export layouts, simplifies configuration, and streamlines the release archive while fixing logging and ordering.

## 🚀 Features

### Compact export output

Oct 21, 2025 · [@mavam](https://github.com/mavam), [@codex](https://github.com/codex)

Add an optional compact export mode that renders bullet lists with bold titles and first-paragraph excerpts for Markdown and JSON outputs.

## 🔧 Changes

### Streamline release archive layout

Oct 21, 2025 · [@mavam](https://github.com/mavam), [@codex](https://github.com/codex)

Release manifests now keep metadata in `manifest.yaml`, store archived entries in `releases/<version>/entries/`, and write release notes to `notes.md` for consistent automation.

### Store entry creation dates as Date objects

Oct 21, 2025 · [@mavam](https://github.com/mavam), [@codex](https://github.com/codex)

Entry parsing now converts `created` metadata to real dates and emits them for consumers.

### Simplify changelog configuration

Oct 21, 2025 · [@mavam](https://github.com/mavam), [@codex](https://github.com/codex)

Drop the workspace section from `config.yaml` in favor of top-level project metadata and update tooling, docs, and samples accordingly.

### Order same-day entries by modification time

Oct 21, 2025 · [@mavam](https://github.com/mavam), [@codex](https://github.com/codex)

Ensure CLI views and exports stay reverse chronological by breaking same-day ties with entry file modification times.

### Improve entry table layout

Oct 21, 2025 · [@mavam](https://github.com/mavam), [@codex](https://github.com/codex)

Tighten the CLI entry table so IDs ellipsize instead of wrapping and adjust column widths to keep titles readable.

### Drop implicit project metadata

Oct 21, 2025 · [@mavam](https://github.com/mavam), [@codex](https://github.com/codex)

Entry files no longer store the project key; the CLI infers it from config.

### Center type column emoji labels

Oct 21, 2025 · [@mavam](https://github.com/mavam), [@codex](https://github.com/codex)

Render entry types with aligned emoji icons, and gate the project banner behind an opt-in `--banner` flag.

## 🐞 Bug Fixes

### Fix logging when outside project root

Oct 21, 2025 · [@mavam](https://github.com/mavam), [@codex](https://github.com/codex)

When attempting to run `tenzir-changelog` outside a project root, you now get a helpful error message that’s properly formatted.
