Pulse Lab — Changelog

Why we publish a changelog

The MPI and regime-classifier changelogs cover what’s happening under the hood. This page covers what’s happening on the surface — the dashboard the reader actually looks at. When the Pulse Lab adds a sector heatmap, restructures the daily report format, or changes how methodology is exposed, the experience of reading AZTMM changes. That is worth a record.

A reader who builds a habit around the Pulse Lab — reading it the same way every morning — deserves to know when the visual layout, the report sections, or the data presented have shifted. This log is for them. It is the place where surface-level changes (UI, report formats, design system, navigation) get dated and described.

How to read this

Entries are dated descending. Each entry is scoped to a surface-level change: dashboard UI, report formats, design system, navigation, or visibility of methodology. Methodology changes themselves live in the MPI Changelog and the Regime Classifier Changelog — not here.
