 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-02-06 - 1.12.0 - feat(docker)
+add detailed logging for buildx, build commands, local registry, and local dependency info
+
+- Log startup of local registry including a note about buildx dependency bridging
+- Log constructed build commands and indicate whether buildx or standard docker build is used (including platforms and --push/--load distinctions)
+- Emit build mode summary at start of build phase and report local base-image dependency mappings
+- Report when --no-cache is enabled and surface buildx setup readiness with configured platforms
+- Non-functional change: purely adds informational logging to improve observability during builds
+
+## 2026-02-06 - 1.11.0 - feat(docker)
+start temporary local registry for buildx dependency resolution and ensure buildx builder uses host network
+
+- Introduce a temporary local registry (localhost:5234) with start/stop helpers and push support to expose local images for buildx
+- Add Dockerfile.needsLocalRegistry to decide when a local registry is required (local base dependencies + multi-platform or platform option)
+- Push built images to the local registry and set localRegistryTag on Dockerfile instances for BuildKit build-context usage
+- Tag built images in the host daemon for dependent Dockerfiles to resolve local FROM references
+- Integrate registry lifecycle into Dockerfile.buildDockerfiles and TsDockerManager build flows (start before builds, stop after)
+- Ensure buildx builder is created with --driver-opt network=host and recreate existing builder if it lacks host network to allow registry access from build containers
+
+## 2026-02-06 - 1.10.0 - feat(classes.dockerfile)
+support using a local base image as a build context in buildx commands
+
+- Adds --build-context flag mapping base image to docker-image://<localTag> when localBaseImageDependent && localBaseDockerfile are set
+- Appends the build context flag to both single-platform and multi-platform docker buildx commands
+- Logs an info message indicating the local build context mapping
+
+## 2026-02-06 - 1.9.0 - feat(build)
+add verbose build output, progress logging, and timing for builds/tests
+
+- Add 'verbose' option to build/test flows (interfaces, CLI, and method signatures) to allow streaming raw docker build output or run silently
+- Log per-item progress for build and test phases (e.g. (1/N) Building/Testing <tag>) and report individual durations
+- Return elapsed time from Dockerfile.build() and Dockerfile.test() and aggregate total build/test times in manager
+- Introduce formatDuration(ms) helper in logging module to format timings
+- Switch from console.log to structured logger calls across cache, manager, dockerfile and push paths
+- Use silent exec variants when verbose is false and stream exec when verbose is true
+
+## 2026-02-06 - 1.8.0 - feat(build)
+add optional content-hash based build cache to skip rebuilding unchanged Dockerfiles
+
+- Introduce TsDockerCache to compute SHA-256 of Dockerfile content and persist cache to .nogit/tsdocker_support.json
+- Add ICacheEntry and ICacheData interfaces and a cached flag to IBuildCommandOptions
+- Integrate cached mode in TsDockerManager: skip builds on cache hits, verify image presence, record builds on misses, and still perform dependency tagging
+- Expose --cached option in CLI to enable the cached build flow
+- Cache records store contentHash, imageId, buildTag and timestamp
+
 ## 2026-02-06 - 1.7.0 - feat(cli)
 add CLI version display using commitinfo
