Changelog

Release history for next-webdna. All notable changes are documented here.

0.1.6 latest April 12, 2026

Bug Fixes

  • Fix AI agents (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) unable to access /.well-known/webdna.json due to missing CORS headers
  • Auto-inject Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * and Content-Type: application/json headers for all WebDNA paths

New Features

  • Auto-generate fallback API route at /api/webdna with full CORS support for hosts that block .well-known
  • Add rewrite aliases: /webdna.json and /webdna-custom.json work without the .well-known prefix
  • API route auto-detects App Router vs Pages Router and generates the correct format
  • Generated API route is marked @generated by next-webdna and won't overwrite user files

Docs

  • Add "How AI Agents Access WebDNA" section to README and landing page
  • Add access troubleshooting card to Common Issues
0.1.5 April 6, 2026

New Features (Phase 2)

  • Element-level exclusions: scan JSX for data-webdna="exclude" attributes at build time
  • Granular config exclusions: excludeComponents, excludeApi, excludeBrand (all with glob pattern support)
  • Rewrite two-tier generation: auto manifest always full, custom manifest applies all exclusions
  • Auto-clean dangling references when items are excluded
  • Two AI setup prompts: quick setup and guided exclusion questionnaire

Improvements

  • Update validator for new component object format
  • Add lint warnings: unresolved CSS variables, missing component roles, routes referencing missing components
  • Update config parser for all new exclusion fields
0.1.4 April 6, 2026

New Features

  • Semantic depth: resolve CSS variables to actual color values (no more var(--primary) in output)
  • Normalize color values: bare numbers wrapped in hsl()/oklch(), Tailwind v4 shorthand handled
  • Infer semantic color roles: primary, accent, background, text, border, etc.
  • Detect Next.js font imports from layout files (next/font/google)
  • Rich component metadata: extract props from TypeScript interfaces, infer semantic roles (layout, navigation, content, form, feedback), detect child component imports
  • Route relationships: detect which components and API endpoints each route uses
  • API relationships: extract request params (query/body/path), response schemas, and consumedBy routes
  • Bidirectional wiring: post-processing pass populates component.usedIn and api.consumedBy
0.1.3 April 5, 2026
