	- Fix mutation dashboard Total column excluding skipped mutants; Total now
	  equals Killed + Survivors + Skipped. Score remains based on Killed / (Killed
	  + Survivors) so skipped mutants do not penalise the mutation score.
	- Fix extract-schemas --strict-pod false positive when a method uses
	  Params::Get::get_params('key', \@_) to extract arguments; the key name
	  is now recognised as a code parameter, resolving POD/code disagreement.
	- Fix _extract_defaults_from_code incorrectly marking a parameter as
	  optional when its only assignment is a dereference or method call
	  (e.g. my $x = $params->{x}); such expressions are not default values.
	- Fix extract-schemas inferring output type as string instead of hashref
	  when a method has a =head4 Output formal spec; the spec type now takes
	  precedence over heuristic code analysis (the string came from scalar
	  being mapped to string when it wasn't in the valid-types list).
	- Fix extract-schemas inferring output type as string instead of array when
	  a =head4 Output block uses list notation (...); the output-type validator
	  did not include 'array' in its allowed-types set and silently fell back
	  to string.
	- Fix SchemaExtractor emitting both 'enum' and 'memberof' for the same
	  parameter when a regex-based enum is detected; the two fields are mutually
	  exclusive and Generator.pm now rejects schemas that contain both.
	  SchemaExtractor now only sets memberof when enum is not already being
	  output in the cleaned schema.
	- Fix SchemaExtractor falsely inferring type 'number' for parameters whose
	  code uses the defined-or operator (//) — e.g. $text // '' was mistaken
	  for division because the numeric-operator pattern included bare / without
	  excluding //. Both heuristic-inference sites now use \/(?!\/) to require
	  that the / is not followed by a second /.

	[Enhancements]
	- SchemaExtractor now parses =head3 Input and =head4 Input formal spec
	  blocks, mirroring the existing =head4 Output support. Positional array
	  format ([ {type=>'...'}, ... ]) and named hash format
	  ({ name => {type=>'...'}, ... }) are both supported. The spec takes
	  highest priority, overriding all heuristic type inference. Union types
	  such as 'scalar | scalarref' are resolved to the canonical ATG type
	  (both scalar and scalarref map to string).
	- Add t/app.t: ATG self-test that runs every lib/**/*.pm through
	  SchemaExtractor (strict_pod=fatal), generates a fuzz harness for each
	  extracted schema via App::Test::Generator, and runs it through prove.
	  Temp dirs containing the intermediate schema YAML and generated .t files
	  are kept on failure for diagnosis. Runs as an extended test.
	- Support array-returning methods end-to-end, enabled by Test::Returns 0.03
	  which accepts type => 'array' as a synonym for type => 'arrayref':
	  extract-schemas now emits output.type: array for list-returning methods,
	  the output-type validator accepts 'array' as a valid type, and generated
	  tests capture the result in list context (my @_r = CALL; $result = \@_r)
	  so that returns_ok can validate it as an arrayref.
	- Fix strict_pod=fatal incorrectly flagging methods with no POD at all;
	  the check now only runs when POD is present (validates accuracy of
	  existing documentation, not completeness).
	- Fix strict_pod=fatal false positive: $class and $self are always treated
	  as invocants and never reported as undocumented code parameters,
	  regardless of method name.
	- Fix _extract_pod_before accumulating multiple adjacent POD blocks; it
	  now stops after the first pod token so class-level POD separated by
	  =cut does not bleed into a method's specific POD context.
	- Fix generated tests dying without done_testing() when an input parameter
	  has type arrayref or array; both types are now handled in the mandatory-
	  argument setup block in Template.pm.
	- Fix extract-schemas creating spurious schema files for Perl special blocks
	  (BEGIN, END, DESTROY, AUTOLOAD, CHECK, INIT, UNITCHECK); these are now
	  skipped in _find_methods.
	- Fix extract-schemas failing to emit new: ~ for instance methods that use
	  the my $self = $_[0] direct-index invocant style and call other instance
	  methods via $self->method() but do not dereference $self directly;
	  _detect_instance_method now recognises $_[0] as explicit_self (high
	  confidence), and _needs_object_instantiation now promotes methods that
	  call instance methods on $self even when no hash/array dereference is
	  present.
	- Fix --strict-pod false positive for methods using the my $self = $_[0]
	  calling style: add direct-index style recognition to
	  _extract_parameters_from_signature and guard the fallback extractor in
	  _extract_defaults_from_code so that inner closure parameters
	  (my ($x, $y) = @_ inside a sub ref) are not mistaken for the outer
	  method's parameters.

0.38	Mon May 18 21:19:40 EDT 2026

	[Bug fixes]
	- Fix missing TER1/TER2/TER3 column in mutation dashboard
	- remove duplicate _lcsaj_coverage_for_file calls
	- move skipped-annotation note inside summary div
	- Fix MUTANT_SKIP_BEGIN/END regex to match only lines where the annotation is the entire content,
	  preventing false positives in comments and POD

0.37	Mon May 18 14:58:48 EDT 2026

	[Enhancements]
	- Add MUTANT_SKIP_BEGIN / MUTANT_SKIP_END source annotations to exclude
	  lines from mutation testing; mismatched markers are fatal. Skipped
	  line counts appear in the per-file mutation report and summary table.

	[Bug fixes]
	- Fix fuzz schema generation looking in xt/conf instead of t/conf.
	- Fix mutate.yml for external repos: add commit step so mutation.json
	  is persisted after each run, enabling the dashboard workflow_run
	  trigger to pick up fresh results.
	- Fix BSD::Resource dependency failing on Windows; guard with OS check.

0.36	Sat May  9 18:54:04 EDT 2026

	[Bug fixes]
	- Fix uninitialized $version warning in CPAN Testers "no failures"
	  message when the CPAN API returns a 404 (no release data available).
	- Fix "Can't open lib/App/Test/Generator.pm" error when test-generator-index
	  is run from a repository other than ATG itself; ATG version is now
	  found by searching @INC with fallback to the configured module_file path.

0.35	Sat May  9 09:40:08 EDT 2026

	[Enhancements]
	- Dashboard footer now shows the App::Test::Generator version used
	  to generate it, linking to the MetaCPAN distribution page.
	- Executive Summary wording now varies by mutation score: positive
	  framing for high scores, an actionable hint for low scores, and a
	  clear message when no mutation data is available yet.  Thresholds
	  use med_threshold and low_threshold from %config rather than
	  magic numbers.
	- Coverage dashboard per-file HTML links now work correctly; Devel::Cover
	  instrumentation restored to use cover -test for accurate per-file
	  HTML generation.
