 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-02-15 - 6.0.1 - fix(taskbuffer)
+no changes to commit
+
+- Git diff shows no changes
+- package.json current version is 6.0.0; no version bump required
+
+## 2026-02-15 - 6.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(constraints)
+make TaskConstraintGroup constraint matcher input-aware and add shouldExecute pre-execution hook
+
+- Rename ITaskConstraintGroupOptions.constraintKeyForTask -> constraintKeyForExecution(task, input?) and update TaskConstraintGroup.getConstraintKey signature
+- Add optional shouldExecute(task, input?) hook; TaskManager checks shouldExecute before immediate runs, after acquiring slots, and when draining the constraint queue (queued tasks are skipped when shouldExecute returns false)
+- Export ITaskExecution type and store constraintKeys on queued entries (IConstrainedTaskEntry.constraintKeys)
+- Documentation and tests updated to demonstrate input-aware constraint keys and shouldExecute pruning
+
+## 2026-02-15 - 5.0.1 - fix(tests)
+add and tighten constraint-related tests covering return values, error propagation, concurrency, cooldown timing, and constraint removal
+
+- Tightened cooldown timing assertion from >=100ms to >=250ms to reflect 300ms cooldown with 50ms tolerance.
+- Added tests for queued task return values, error propagation when catchErrors is false, and error swallowing behavior when catchErrors is true.
+- Added concurrency and cooldown interaction tests to ensure maxConcurrent is respected and batch timing is correct.
+- Added test verifying removing a constraint group unblocks queued tasks and drain behavior completes correctly.
+
+## 2026-02-15 - 5.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(taskbuffer)
+Introduce constraint-based concurrency with TaskConstraintGroup and TaskManager integration; remove legacy TaskRunner and several Task APIs (breaking); add typed Task.data and update exports and tests.
+
+- Add TaskConstraintGroup class with per-key maxConcurrent, cooldownMs, and helper methods (canRun, acquireSlot, releaseSlot, getCooldownRemaining, getRunningCount, reset).
+- Task generic signature extended to Task<T, TSteps, TData> and a new typed data property (data) with default {}.
+- TaskManager now supports addConstraintGroup/removeConstraintGroup, triggerTaskConstrained, queues blocked tasks, drains queue with cooldown timers, and routes triggerTask/triggerTaskByName through the constraint system.
+- Removed TaskRunner, plus Task APIs: blockingTasks, execDelay, finished promise and associated behavior have been removed (breaking changes).
+- Exports and interfaces updated: TaskConstraintGroup and ITaskConstraintGroupOptions added; TaskRunner removed from public API.
+- Updated README and added comprehensive tests for constraint behavior; adjusted other tests to remove TaskRunner usage and reflect new APIs.
+
+## 2026-02-15 - 4.2.1 - fix(deps)
+bump @push.rocks/smartlog and @types/node; update dependency list version and license link in docs
+
+- package.json: update @push.rocks/smartlog from ^3.1.10 to ^3.1.11
+- package.json: update @types/node from ^25.1.0 to ^25.2.3
+- readme.hints.md: update 'Dependencies (as of v4.1.1)' to 'Dependencies (as of v4.2.0)' and reflect bumped dependency versions
+- readme.md: change license link text to '[LICENSE](./license.md)'
+
+## 2026-01-29 - 4.2.0 - feat(ts_web)
+support TC39 'accessor' decorators for web components; bump dependencies and devDependencies; rename browser tests to .chromium.ts; move LICENSE to license.md and update readme
+
+- Convert web component class fields to use the TC39 'accessor' keyword in ts_web/taskbuffer-dashboard.ts to be compatible with @design.estate/dees-element v2.1.6
+- Bump @design.estate/dees-element to ^2.1.6 and update devDependencies (@git.zone/tsbuild, @git.zone/tsbundle, @git.zone/tsrun, @git.zone/tstest, @types/node) to newer versions
+- Replace test/test.10.webcomponent.browser.ts with test/test.10.webcomponent.chromium.ts and update testing guidance in readme.hints.md to prefer .chromium.ts
+- Move LICENSE file content to license.md and update readme.md to reference the new license file
+- Small test cleanups: remove obsolete tslint:disable comments
+
+## 2026-01-26 - 4.1.1 - fix(ts_web)
+fix web dashboard typings and update generated commit info
+
+- Updated generated commit info file ts_web/00_commitinfo_data.ts to version 4.1.0
+- Large changes applied to web/TS build files (net +529 additions, -399 deletions) — likely fixes and typing/refactor improvements in ts_web/dashboard
+- package.json remains at 4.1.0; recommend a patch bump to 4.1.1 for these fixes
+
 ## 2026-01-26 - 4.1.0 - feat(task)
 add task labels and push-based task events

 # Taskbuffer Hints
 
+## Task Constraint System (v5.0.0+) — Breaking Changes
+- **`TaskRunner` removed** — replaced by `TaskManager` + `TaskConstraintGroup`
+- **`blockingTasks` removed** from `Task` — use `TaskConstraintGroup` with `maxConcurrent: 1`
+- **`execDelay` removed** from `Task` — use `TaskConstraintGroup` with `cooldownMs`
+- **`finished` promise removed** from `Task` — no longer needed
+- **`Task` generic signature**: `Task<T, TSteps, TData>` (3rd param added for typed data)
+
+### Task.data
+- `Task` constructor accepts optional `data?: TData` (defaults to `{}`)
+- Typed data bag accessible as `task.data`
+
+### TaskConstraintGroup
+- `new TaskConstraintGroup<TData>({ name, constraintKeyForExecution, maxConcurrent?, cooldownMs?, shouldExecute? })`
+- `constraintKeyForExecution(task, input?)` returns a string key (constraint applies) or `null` (skip). Receives both task and runtime input.
+- `shouldExecute(task, input?)` — optional pre-execution check. Returns `false` to skip (deferred resolves `undefined`). Can be async.
+- `maxConcurrent` (default: `Infinity`) — max concurrent tasks per key
+- `cooldownMs` (default: `0`) — minimum ms gap between completions per key
+- Methods: `getConstraintKey(task, input?)`, `checkShouldExecute(task, input?)`, `canRun(key)`, `acquireSlot(key)`, `releaseSlot(key)`, `getCooldownRemaining(key)`, `getRunningCount(key)`, `reset()`
+- `ITaskExecution<TData>` type exported from index — `{ task, input }` tuple
+
+### TaskManager Constraint Integration
+- `manager.addConstraintGroup(group)` / `manager.removeConstraintGroup(name)`
+- `triggerTaskByName()`, `triggerTask()`, `addExecuteRemoveTask()`, cron callbacks all route through `triggerTaskConstrained()`
+- `triggerTaskConstrained(task, input?)` — evaluates constraints, queues if blocked, drains after completion
+- Cooldown-blocked entries auto-drain via timer
+
+### Exported from index.ts
+- `TaskConstraintGroup` class
+- `ITaskConstraintGroupOptions` type
+
 ## Error Handling (v3.6.0+)
 - `Task` now has `catchErrors` constructor option (default: `false`)
 - Default behavior: `trigger()` rejects when taskFunction throws (breaking change from pre-3.6)
 - Set `catchErrors: true` to swallow errors (old behavior) - returns `undefined` on error
 - Error state tracked via `lastError?: Error`, `errorCount: number`, `clearError()`
 - `getMetadata()` status uses all four values: `'idle'` | `'running'` | `'completed'` | `'failed'`
-- All peripheral classes (Taskchain, Taskparallel, TaskRunner, BufferRunner, TaskDebounced, TaskManager) have proper error propagation/handling
+- All peripheral classes (Taskchain, Taskparallel, BufferRunner, TaskDebounced, TaskManager) have proper error propagation/handling
 - `console.log` calls replaced with `logger.log()` throughout
 
-## Breaking API Rename (TaskRunner)
-- `maxParrallelJobs` → `maxParallelJobs`
-- `qeuedTasks` → `queuedTasks`
-- JSDoc typos fixed: "qeue" → "queue", "wether" → "whether", "loose" → "lose"
-- The `setMaxParallelJobs()` parameter also renamed from `maxParrallelJobsArg` to `maxParallelJobsArg`
-
 ## Error Context Improvements
 - **TaskChain**: Errors now wrap the original with context: chain name, failing task name, and task index. Original error preserved via `.cause`
 - **BufferRunner**: When `catchErrors: false`, buffered task errors now reject the trigger promise (via `CycleCounter.informOfCycleError`) instead of silently resolving with `undefined`

 ## Project Structure
 - Source in `ts/`, web components in `ts_web/`
-- Tests in `test/` - naming: `*.node.ts`, `*.browser.ts`, `*.both.ts`
+- Tests in `test/` - naming: `*.node.ts`, `*.chromium.ts` (preferred), `*.both.ts`
+  - Note: `*.browser.ts` is deprecated, use `*.chromium.ts` for browser tests
 - Logger: `ts/taskbuffer.logging.ts` exports `logger` (ConsoleLog from smartlog)
 - Build: `pnpm build` (tsbuild tsfolders)
 - Test: `pnpm test` or `tstest test/test.XX.name.ts --verbose`
+
+## Web Components (ts_web/)
+- Uses `@design.estate/dees-element` with TC39 decorators
+- Decorators require the `accessor` keyword:
+  ```typescript
+  @property({ type: String })
+  accessor myProp = 'default';
+
+  @state()
+  accessor count = 0;
+  ```
+
