 All notable changes to Chat Switchboard.
 
+## [0.17.1] — 2026-02-27
+
+### Added
+- **SQLite backend.** Full dual-driver database layer — set `DB_DRIVER=sqlite`
+  to run with an embedded SQLite database. Pure Go (no CGO), zero external
+  dependencies. 19 store files covering all domain stores: channels, messages,
+  users, teams, personas, knowledge bases, notes, usage, audit, extensions,
+  and more. Feature parity with Postgres including knowledge base vector
+  search via app-level cosine similarity computed in Go.
+- **Dialect-aware test infrastructure.** `database.SetupTestDB()` detects
+  `DB_DRIVER` and provisions either a Postgres test database or a SQLite
+  temp file. Exported `database.PH(n)` returns `$N` or `?` per dialect.
+  `database.TruncateAll()` uses `TRUNCATE CASCADE` on Postgres and
+  `DELETE FROM` with `PRAGMA foreign_keys` toggling on SQLite.
+  `dialectSQL()` helper in handler tests converts `$N` placeholders and
+  strips `::jsonb` casts at runtime.
+- **SQLite CI pipeline.** New `test-sqlite` job runs the full handler
+  integration test suite and store tests against an embedded SQLite
+  database. Parallel with the existing Postgres test job. Build gate
+  verifies `CGO_ENABLED=0` compilation.
+- **Generic provider test config.** Live provider integration tests now
+  read `PROVIDER`, `PROVIDER_KEY`, and `PROVIDER_URL` environment
+  variables instead of hardcoded `VENICE_API_KEY`. Legacy fallback
+  preserved. Model selection prefers non-reasoning models to avoid
+  thinking budget requirements with low `max_tokens`.
+
+### Changed
+- `kb_chunks` table in SQLite schema includes `embedding TEXT` column
+  for JSON-encoded float64 vectors (previously omitted as feature-gated).
+- `SimilaritySearch` on SQLite loads candidate chunks, decodes JSON
+  embeddings, and computes cosine distance in Go — replacing the
+  previous "not available" error.
+- `InsertChunks` on SQLite now stores embedding vectors as JSON text.
+- Live test names genericized: `TestLive_Venice*` → `TestLive_*`.
+- CI `build-and-deploy` depends on `[test, test-frontend, test-sqlite]`.
+
+### Fixed
+- **SQLite `RETURNING` + `time.Time` scan failure.** The modernc/sqlite
+  driver cannot scan `datetime('now')` TEXT columns into `time.Time` via
+  `RETURNING`. All 13 SQLite store `Create` methods rewritten to set
+  timestamps in Go (`time.Now().UTC()`) and use `ExecContext` instead of
+  `QueryRowContext(...).Scan()`. Format: `2006-01-02 15:04:05` (`timeFmt`
+  constant in `helpers.go`).
+- **SQLite missing `id` in INSERTs.** Unlike Postgres (`DEFAULT
+  gen_random_uuid()`), SQLite `TEXT PRIMARY KEY` columns have no
+  auto-generation. Added `store.NewID()` / `uuid.New()` to: `usage_log`,
+  `model_pricing` (both upsert paths), `team_members` (AddMember),
+  `group_members` (AddMember), `refresh_tokens` (CreateRefreshToken).
+- **Test seed helpers SQLite-aware.** `SeedTestUser`, `SeedTestChannel`,
+  `SeedTestTeam`, `SeedTestTeamMember`, `SeedTestGroup`, `SeedGroupMember`
+  now branch on `IsSQLite()` to provide application-generated UUIDs
+  instead of relying on `RETURNING id`.
+- **Postgres-isms in SQLite stores.** `extension.go` Update used `now()`
+  → `datetime('now')`; `ListForUser` COALESCE used `true` → `1`.
+- SQLite store bool/int type mismatches: `persona.go` auto-fetch flag,
+  `usage.go` exclude-BYOK filter, `user_settings.go` visibility map
+  values — all corrected from `0`/`1` to `false`/`true`.

+## [0.16.0] — 2026-02-27
+
+### Added
+- **User groups.** Global and team-scoped groups decoupled from team
+  membership. `groups` and `group_members` tables. Admin and team admin
+  CRUD for group management. Groups serve as ACL targets for resources.
+- **Resource grants.** Three-way grant model (`team_only`, `global`,
+  `groups`) for Personas and Knowledge Bases. `resource_grants` table
+  with `grant_scope` and `granted_groups UUID[]` columns. Grant picker
+  UI on Persona and KB forms with group multi-select.
+- **Schema consolidation.** 9 incremental migrations collapsed into
+  single `001_v016_schema.sql`. Fresh installs use the consolidated
+  file; upgrade path preserved via migration version tracking.
+
+### Changed
+- Persona and KB list queries now filter through `resource_grants` for
+  non-admin users. Team-only remains the default scope.
+- Admin panel shows group membership counts and grant summaries.
+
+## [0.15.1] — 2026-02-26
+
+### Added
+- **`attachment_recall` tool.** Two operations: `list` returns filenames
+  and metadata for the current channel's attachments; `read` extracts
+  and returns content by attachment ID. Channel-scoped access control.
+- **`conversation_search` tool.** Full-text search across the current
+  channel's message history using PostgreSQL `plainto_tsquery`. Returns
+  matching messages with timestamps and role context.
+- **Token estimator attachment awareness.** `Tokens.estimateAttachments()`
+  accounts for staged file sizes in context budget calculations. Warning
+  thresholds include attachment estimates.
+
+## [0.15.0] — 2026-02-26
+
+### Added
+- **Background compaction scanner.** Periodic scan identifies channels
+  exceeding configurable context thresholds. Automatic summarization via
+  utility role compresses old messages into summary nodes. Per-channel
+  opt-in/out via `auto_compact` channel setting.
+- **Compaction service.** `compaction.Service` orchestrates summary
+  generation: estimates token usage, selects messages for compression,
+  calls utility role, inserts summary as tree boundary node with metadata.
+- **Context budget guard rail.** 80% ceiling prevents compaction from
+  triggering mid-generation. Cooldown timer prevents repeated compaction
+  of the same channel.
+- **Summarize & Continue button.** User-triggered compaction from the
+  context warning bar. Reuses compaction service with immediate execution.
+
+### Changed
+- Scanner configurable via `global_settings`: threshold percentage,
+  cooldown duration, enabled/disabled toggle. Channel-level overrides.
+
+## [0.14.0] — 2026-02-26
+
+### Added
+- **Knowledge bases.** RAG pipeline: upload documents → chunk (recursive
+  text splitter) → embed via pgvector → `kb_search` tool for semantic
+  retrieval. Team and personal KB scopes. Channel KB toggle enables
+  per-conversation knowledge access.
+- **Document ingestion.** `knowledge.Ingest()` pipeline: file upload →
+  text extraction (reuses v0.12.0 pipeline) → chunking with configurable
+  overlap → embedding via the embedding role → storage as `kb_chunks`
+  with vector index.
+- **KB admin panel.** Knowledge Bases section under AI category. Create,
+  delete, upload documents, view chunk counts and storage usage. Team
+  admin scoped to team KBs.
+- **Notes semantic search.** Note search upgraded from exact text match
+  to pgvector cosine similarity when embeddings are available.
+- **`kb_search` tool.** Registered when embedding role is configured.
+  Accepts query text, returns top-K chunks with source document
+  attribution. Channel KB bindings control which KBs are searched.
+
+### Changed
+- pgvector extension enabled in schema (`CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS
+  vector`). `kb_chunks` table includes `embedding vector(1536)` column
+  with IVFFlat index.
+
+## [0.13.1] — 2026-02-26
+
+### Added
+- **`web_search` tool.** Search provider abstraction with two backends:
+  DuckDuckGo (HTML scraping, zero config) and SearXNG (self-hosted,
+  JSON API). Returns title, URL, and snippet for each result. Configured
+  via `SEARCH_PROVIDER` and `SEARXNG_URL` env vars.
+- **`url_fetch` tool.** Fetches and extracts text content from URLs.
+  Respects robots.txt. Content-type detection with HTML-to-text
+  conversion. Configurable timeout and size limits.
+- **Tool categories.** Tools now have a `category` field (builtin,
+  search, knowledge, browser). Tools toggle UI in chat bar groups
+  by category with per-tool enable/disable.
+- **Tools toggle UI.** Popup menu on chat input toolbar showing all
+  available tools. Per-tool checkbox state sent as `disabled_tools[]`
+  in completion requests. Browser extension tools included.
+
+## [0.13.0] — 2026-02-25
+
+### Changed
+- **Admin panel refactor.** Replaced 12-tab modal with fullscreen admin
+  panel. Four categories (People, AI, System, Monitoring) with section
+  sidebar navigation. URL-based routing (`#admin/people/users`).
+  Responsive layout, classification banner-aware positioning.
+- **CSS design token cleanup.** Consolidated duplicate color/spacing
+  variables. Admin panel uses shared token system with main UI.

+Set `DB_DRIVER=sqlite` and `DATABASE_URL=/path/to/switchboard.db` to run with an embedded SQLite database. No external dependencies — the binary is self-contained (pure Go, no CGO).

+# v0.17.1 — SQLite Backend
+
+## Overview
+
+Adds SQLite as an alternative database backend alongside PostgreSQL. Enables
+single-binary deployments, air-gapped environments, edge nodes, and developer
+laptops without requiring a PostgreSQL instance.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+DB_DRIVER env var
+    │
+    ├─ "postgres" (default) → database.DialectPostgres → postgres.NewStores()
+    └─ "sqlite"             → database.DialectSQLite   → sqlite.NewStores()
+
+Both implement the same 19 store.* interfaces unchanged.

+| Decision | Rationale |
+|----------|-----------|
+| Parallel `store/sqlite/` package | Clean separation, no runtime branching in SQL |
+| `?` placeholders (not `$N`) | SQLite native, no conversion overhead |
+| JSON text arrays (`'["a","b"]'`) | Replace `TEXT[]`/`UUID[]` + `pq.Array` |
+| `json_each()` for array membership | Replace `= ANY(array_col)` |
+| App-side `store.NewID()` UUIDs | Replace `DEFAULT gen_random_uuid()` |
+| `datetime('now')` | Replace `NOW()` / `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` |
+| `LIKE` fallback for search | Replace `tsvector` / `ts_rank` |
+| Feature-gated vector search | pgvector → returns error hint on SQLite |
+| `excluded.col` in ON CONFLICT | Replace Postgres `$N` reuse in SET clause |
+| WAL mode + single writer | Optimal SQLite concurrency for web apps |
+

+## Pattern Conversion Reference
+
+### Placeholders
+```sql
+-- Postgres:  WHERE id = $1 AND name = $2
+-- SQLite:    WHERE id = ?  AND name = ?
+```
+
+### UUID Generation
+```go
+// Postgres: RETURNING id  (gen_random_uuid() DEFAULT)
+// SQLite:   obj.ID = store.NewID()
+//           INSERT INTO table (id, ...) VALUES (?, ...)
+//           RETURNING created_at  (id already set)
+```
+
+### Array Types
+```go
+// Postgres: pq.Array(teamIDs)  →  team_id = ANY($3)
+// SQLite:   for _, tid := range teamIDs { args = append(args, tid) }
+//           team_id IN (?,?,?)
+//
+// Postgres: pq.Array(&tags)    →  stored as TEXT[]
+// SQLite:   ArrayToJSON(tags)  →  stored as '["a","b"]'
+//           ScanArray(jsonStr) →  read back
+```
+
+### Array Membership (granted_groups)
+```sql
+-- Postgres: gm.group_id = ANY(rg.granted_groups)
+-- SQLite:   JOIN json_each(rg.granted_groups) je ON je.value = gm.group_id
+```
+
+### ON CONFLICT Upserts
+```sql
+-- Postgres: ON CONFLICT (key) DO UPDATE SET value = $2, updated_by = $3
+-- SQLite:   ON CONFLICT (key) DO UPDATE SET value = excluded.value, updated_by = excluded.updated_by
+```
+
+### Timestamps
+```sql
+-- Postgres: NOW(), CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, TIMESTAMPTZ
+-- SQLite:   datetime('now'), TEXT (ISO 8601)
+```
+
+### Full-Text Search
+```sql
+-- Postgres: search_vector @@ to_tsquery('english', $1)
+-- SQLite:   (title LIKE ? OR content LIKE ?)  -- per word
+```
+
+### Vector Search
+```
+-- Postgres: c.embedding <=> $1::vector  (pgvector cosine distance)
+-- SQLite:   Feature-gated. Returns error hint.
+--           KB ingestion works (stores text chunks).
+--           Future: sqlite-vec extension support.
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+```bash
+# PostgreSQL (default — no changes needed)
+DB_DRIVER=postgres
+DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:pass@host:5432/switchboard
+
+# SQLite
+DB_DRIVER=sqlite
+DATABASE_URL=switchboard.db          # file path
+DATABASE_URL=:memory:                # in-memory (testing)
+DATABASE_URL=/data/switchboard.db    # absolute path
+```
+
+Auto-detection: if `DB_DRIVER` is empty, inferred from `DATABASE_URL` format.
+
+## SQLite Pragmas (set automatically)
+
+| Pragma | Value | Purpose |
+|--------|-------|---------|
+| `journal_mode` | WAL | Concurrent readers |
+| `busy_timeout` | 5000ms | Retry on lock |
+| `foreign_keys` | ON | Enforce FK constraints |
+
+## Limitations vs PostgreSQL
+
+| Feature | PostgreSQL | SQLite |
+|---------|-----------|--------|
+| Vector similarity search | ✅ pgvector | ❌ Feature-gated |
+| Full-text search | ✅ tsvector/tsquery | ⚠ LIKE fallback |
+| Concurrent writes | ✅ MVCC | ⚠ Single writer (WAL) |
+| Array columns | ✅ Native | ⚠ JSON text arrays |
+| `NUMERIC(12,6)` precision | ✅ Exact | ⚠ REAL (float64) |
+| GIN indexes | ✅ Native | ❌ Not available |
+| Partial indexes | ✅ Full support | ✅ Supported |
+| RETURNING clause | ✅ Full support | ✅ SQLite 3.35+ |
+
