+### Changed
+- Rewrote core principles against 2026 Claude Code primary sources, consolidating PHILOSOPHY.md into PRINCIPLES.md and removing pre-2026 framework-era guidance that no longer held up to citation checking.
+- Added a skill-vs-subagent decision framework to the principles doc to help users choose the right primitive when extending their workflows.
+- Restructured CHANGELOG.md with a retained history window and links out to older releases for easier navigation.
