 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-03-21 - 6.3.1 - fix(cluster)
+improve shard reconstruction validation and start background healing service
+
+- use the erasure read quorum when reconstructing chunks instead of assuming data shard count
+- verify reconstructed shards before writing healed data back to disk
+- start the healing service during server initialization with shared local shard stores
+- simplify QUIC request handling by decoding the full request buffer including trailing shard data
+- clean up unused variables and imports across cluster modules
+
 ## 2026-03-21 - 6.3.0 - feat(readme)
 document distributed cluster mode, erasure coding, and QUIC-based architecture
