 # Changelog
 
+## v6.3.0 - 2026-04-09
+
+### 💥 Breaking Changes
+
+* Remove custom content installation feature; use marketplace-based plugin installation instead (#2227)
+* Remove bmad-init skill; all agents and skills now load config directly from `{project-root}/_bmad/bmm/config.yaml` (#2159)
+* Remove spec-wip.md singleton; quick-dev now writes directly to `spec-{slug}.md` with status field, enabling parallel sessions (#2214)
+* Consolidate three agent personas into Developer agent (Amelia): remove Barry quick-flow-solo-dev (#2177), Quinn QA agent (#2179), and Bob Scrum Master agent (#2186)
+
+### 🎁 Features
+
+* Universal source support for custom module installs with 5-strategy PluginResolver cascade supporting any Git host (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, self-hosted) and local file paths (#2233)
+* Community module browser with three-tier selection: official, community (category drill-down from marketplace index), and custom URL with unverified source warning (#2229)

+* Epic context compilation for quick-dev step-01: sub-agent compiles planning docs into cached `epic-{N}-context.md` for story implementation (#2218)
+* Previous story continuity in quick-dev: load completed spec from same epic as implementation context (#2201)
+* Planning artifact awareness in quick-dev: selectively load PRD, architecture, UX, and epics docs for context-informed specs (#2185)
+* One-shot route now generates lightweight spec trace file for consistent artifact tracking (#2121)
+* Improve checkpoint-preview UX with clickable spec paths, external edit detection, and missing-file halt (#2217)

+* Fix version display bug where marketplace.json walk-up reported wrong version (#2233)
