[0.4.1] - Unreleased

Added

• ChatGPT execution_output (Code Interpreter / container.exec / python) renders as a tool_result block with tool_name from author.name, is_error from metadata.aggregate_result.status, and the optional summary line populated from metadata.reasoning_title. Captured live during planning.
• ChatGPT system_error content (e.g. browse-service 503) renders as an error tool_result block with tool_name from author.name (typically "web").
• ChatGPT tether_browsing_display populated case (defensive, not observed in real data) renders as a tool_result block; transient spinner placeholders (empty result+summary) skip silently with DEBUG log.
• tool_result block schema gains optional summary: str | None field, rendered as italic line between header and fenced output.
• tool_result rendering shows tool_name in the header when present (e.g. 📤 **Result: container.exec**); when absent, header stays as 📤 **Result** (no regression).
• Markdown exporter: _ROLE_LABELS["tool"] = ("🔧 Tool", "tool") so tool-role messages render under a recognisable header instead of the generic fallback.
• 11 new tests covering all four cases plus the conv_id fallback (192 total, all passing).

Fixed

• ChatGPT normalize_conversation now reads conversation_id as a fallback for id. Live ChatGPT detail responses use conversation_id at top level; fixtures and listing summaries use id. Without the fallback, normalized conversations had empty id (visible as blank conversation_id: in YAML frontmatter and missing context in WARNING log lines).

Migration

• No new schema breaks; tool_result blocks gain a summary field that defaults to None on legacy data. Existing exports re-render cleanly with the cache-clear-and-export workflow from v0.4.0.

[0.4.0] - Unreleased

Added

• Rich content support: messages now carry an ordered blocks list (text, code, thinking, tool_use, tool_result, citation, image_placeholder, file_placeholder, unknown)
• ChatGPT voice mode: audio_transcription parts render as text blocks; audio_asset_pointer and real_time_user_audio_video_asset_pointer render as 📎 File attached placeholders with size and duration metadata
• ChatGPT Custom Instructions: user_editable_context and model_editable_context messages now appear in exports (were silently dropped — pre-existing bug fixed); rendered with a > ℹ️ Hidden context marker driven by the is_visually_hidden_from_conversation flag
• Image placeholders for image_asset_pointer parts (uploads + DALL-E) inside multimodal_text and at message level
• Defensive Claude block extraction: text, thinking, tool_use, tool_result (including nested-block flattening), image blocks (untested against real data; will fix-forward in v0.4.1 if real shapes diverge)
• LossReport summary table emitted at end of every export run, breaking down unknown blocks and extraction failures by raw type so silently-dropped data becomes visible
• _safe_fence helper picks a fence longer than any backtick run in extracted content, preventing embedded triple-backticks from corrupting downstream rendering (verified live in Joplin during planning)
• unknown blocks render as > ⚠️ Unsupported content with the raw type, observed top-level keys, and reason — so future API additions are visible rather than silent

Changed

• ChatGPT role filter (previously dropped tool and system messages) is lifted: all roles now route through normal extraction; truly empty messages skip via the existing empty-content guard
• Markdown rendering moves from provider-time to exporter-write-time. Providers produce blocks; exporters call render_blocks_to_markdown at write time. This unblocks future Obsidian/HTML exporters
• BaseProvider.normalize_conversation signature now accepts an optional LossReport parameter (breaking change for any future custom subclass; FileProvider hasn't shipped yet)
• o1/o3 reasoning subparts inside text content_type messages remain rendered as plain text (defensive; reclassification to thinking block deferred until live shape is captured)

Fixed

• user_editable_context / model_editable_context extraction (parts-vs-direct-fields mismatch) — Custom Instructions are no longer silently dropped from every conversation

Migration

• Existing exports are not re-rendered automatically. To pick up v0.4.0 rendering for previously exported conversations:

  python -m src.main cache --clear
  python -m src.main export --provider all
  

• JSON exports: messages now contain blocks (typed structured content) and may omit the legacy content field. External consumers reading JSON should prefer blocks.
• Per-conversation message counts may increase: previously-dropped Custom Instructions, image-only user turns, and tool-only assistant turns now appear.

Out of scope (deferred to v0.5.0+)

• Binary downloads of images and audio assets (placeholders show metadata only; content not preserved in this export)
• Joplin resource upload for embedded media
• Filename resolution for file-XYZ / sediment:// references
• Speculative ChatGPT types (tether_browsing_display, tether_quote) and DALL-E assistant images — fall through to unknown blocks if encountered

[0.2.0] - Unreleased

Added

• Joplin import automation: joplin command syncs exported Markdown files to Joplin as notes
• Notebooks created automatically per provider+project (ChatGPT - My Project, etc.)
• Re-running is safe: notes are updated, not duplicated (Joplin note ID stored in manifest)
• JOPLIN_API_TOKEN, JOPLIN_API_URL, JOPLIN_REQUEST_TIMEOUT config variables
• Configurable request timeout with clear error messages and actionable hints on timeout
• --project filter on export and list commands (case-insensitive substring or none)
• ChatGPT Projects support via CHATGPT_PROJECT_IDS env var

[0.1.0] - Unreleased

Added

• Initial implementation: ChatGPT and Claude export via internal web APIs
• Markdown and JSON exporters
• Local cache/manifest for incremental sync
• CLI with export, list, cache, doctor, and auth commands
