 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-02-16 - 6.3.0 - feat(dcrouter)
+add configurable baseDir and centralized path resolution; use resolved data paths for storage, cache and DNS
+
+- Introduce IDcRouterOptions.baseDir to allow configuring base directory for dcrouter data (defaults to ~/.serve.zone/dcrouter).
+- Add DcRouter.resolvedPaths and resolvePaths(baseDir) in ts/paths.ts to centralize computation of dcrouterHomeDir, dataDir, defaultTsmDbPath, defaultStoragePath and dnsRecordsDir.
+- Use resolvedPaths throughout DcRouter: default filesystem storage fsPath, CacheDb storagePath, and DNS records loading now reference resolved paths.
+- Replace ensureDirectories() behavior with ensureDataDirectories(resolvedPaths) to only create data-related directories; keep legacy ensureDirectories wrapper delegating to the new function.
+- Simplify paths module by removing unused legacy path constants and adding a focused API for path resolution and directory creation.
+- Remove an unused import (paths) in contentscanner, cleaning up imports.
+
 ## 2026-02-16 - 6.2.4 - fix(deps)
 bump @push.rocks/smartproxy to ^25.5.0
