# Changelog

> What changed for people building on Storeware, newest first.

## 2026-11-01

- Every admin point now shows: panels beside a [product, collection, order or customer](https://storeware.ai/docs/extensions/admin#points), a block in the shop's settings, actions in a record's **Apps** menu, and actions on the rows ticked in the products, orders and customers lists. Those get the ticked ids as `context.selection`, inside the signed session. The points for customers, and the `.detail.action` points, are new.
- [App Bridge](https://storeware.ai/docs/extensions/app-bridge) version 2: a handshake that hands your page its context, theme and session at once, then toasts, a loading bar, a title bar, the admin's save bar, modals, confirm, a resource picker, navigation, and links off Storeware the merchant is shown first. `createAppBridge` in `@storeware/plugin-sdk/bridge` speaks it. Pages written for version 1 keep working.
- Two packages for React apps: [`@storeware/app-bridge-react`](https://storeware.ai/docs/extensions/app-bridge-react), a provider and hooks over App Bridge, and [`@storeware/app-ui`](https://storeware.ai/docs/extensions/app-ui), components styled only by the admin's 13 `--sw-*` variables.
- The admin's theme reaches your page as the night colours it actually draws, with `scheme` set to `dark`. It said `light`.

## 2026-10-28

- An agent's [standing](https://storeware.ai/docs/agents/standing): what it did across Storeware shops, counted every night, shown to merchants beside each AI shopper and handed to the agent itself as a signed statement at `https://api.storeware.ai/api/agent-standing/self`. Merchants can hold orders from agents with no record, or with lost bank claims.
- Every shop answers questions from other AI assistants: [Ask](https://storeware.ai/docs/agents/ask), UCP's draft `ask` capability, served now as `ai.storeware.common.ask` over UCP REST, UCP MCP, A2A and the shop's own MCP server. It never changes anything, and says so when a question asks it to.
- A [REST reference](https://storeware.ai/docs/api-reference/rest) for products, variants, collections, inventory, orders, customers, metafields, webhook deliveries and app billing, read from the OpenAPI document the API now serves at `https://api.storeware.ai/api/v1/openapi.json`.
- An app's access token lasts 24 hours. These pages said an hour.
- References read from the code: every [manifest key](https://storeware.ai/docs/build-apps/manifest-reference), every [CLI command](https://storeware.ai/docs/cli/commands), the [SDK](https://storeware.ai/docs/sdk/app) module by module, the [theme schema](https://storeware.ai/docs/themes/reference) and the [storefront GraphQL API](https://storeware.ai/docs/api-reference/storefront-graphql). Point your editor at the manifest's JSON Schema with `#:schema https://storeware.ai/docs/schemas/storeware.app.json` at the top of `storeware.app.toml`.
- New guides for [AI agents](https://storeware.ai/docs/agents): the MCP servers, how an agent signs in, UCP and ACP, answers, x402 and more. And for [themes](https://storeware.ai/docs/themes): the schema, the kit and the embeddable assistant.
- `storeware app rollback 3` and `storeware webhook trigger order.paid.v1` find the app from the manifest in the current directory. Before, they read the version or topic as the manifest's path.
- Development stores take [test payments](https://storeware.ai/docs/get-started/test-payments). Choose how each one ends (approve, decline, a check by the shopper's bank, or an error) and your app receives the same order events a real shop sends. No money moves.
- The guides that lived at `storeware.ai/developers` now lead to their pages here, and storeware.ai's menus link the docs.
- An app's token can no longer export or erase a customer's data, even with `customers:read` or `customers:write`. That is the merchant answering a privacy request, and your app hears about each one by its [compliance webhooks](https://storeware.ai/docs/webhooks). The API answers `403` with `privacy_requests_are_for_the_merchant`.
- An app can change or delete only the metafield definitions it declared. Changing the merchant's or another app's answers `403` with `metafield_definition_not_yours`.
- An app's metafield definitions come from `[[metafields.definitions]]` in [its manifest](https://storeware.ai/docs/build-apps/manifest-reference). Creating one through the API answers `403` with `apps_declare_metafields_in_the_manifest`. Before, it made a field that belonged to the merchant, which your app could not fill in.

## 2026-10-27

- The developer docs moved to [storeware.ai/docs](https://storeware.ai/docs), with search, a Markdown copy of every page, and an [`llms.txt`](https://storeware.ai/docs/llms.txt) of their own.
- Apps can [charge by use](https://storeware.ai/docs/selling/billing) up to a cap the merchant approves, credit a shop, and lower a price for existing subscribers.
