+## [0.3.3] — 2026-05-22
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **`recall_query` MCP path missed telemetry instrumentation.** v0.3.2 added
+  `appendRecallTelemetry` to the HTTP `GET /memory/query` route but not to the
+  MCP `recall_query` tool handler (`src/mcp/tools.ts`). Since most clients
+  (Claude Code, Claude Desktop) reach the daemon over MCP rather than direct
+  HTTP, the telemetry log (`~/.ccrecall/recall-query.log.jsonl`) only captured
+  ship smoke-test traffic — actual user calls were silently dropped. Fix:
+  `recallQueryHandler` now calls `appendRecallTelemetry` with
+  `hitCount = emittedIds.length` (post-budget, matching HTTP semantics) and
+  `projectId = null` (the MCP schema does not carry a project parameter).
+  Regression coverage added in `tests/mcp.test.ts` using
+  `CCRECALL_RECALL_TELEMETRY_PATH` to isolate the test log.
+
+### Notes
+
+- Anyone observing the v0.3.2 7-day hit-rate window should treat the original
+  5/28 deadline as void and restart from v0.3.3 ship date (new target: 6/04).
+  Samples gathered during the bug window only reflect HTTP-direct traffic and
+  cannot be extrapolated to the population — cold-rate estimates from that
+  window are not reliable evidence for v0.4.0 batch decisions.

+## [0.3.3] — 2026-05-22
+
+### 修正
+
+- **`recall_query` MCP path 漏 instrument telemetry。** v0.3.2 只在 HTTP
+  `GET /memory/query` route 加 `appendRecallTelemetry`,沒同步加到 MCP
+  `recall_query` tool handler(`src/mcp/tools.ts`)。大多數 client
+  (Claude Code、Claude Desktop)是透過 MCP 而非直接 HTTP 連 daemon,所以
+  telemetry log(`~/.ccrecall/recall-query.log.jsonl`)實際只記到 ship
+  smoke-test 流量,正常 user 呼叫全被靜默丟掉。修法:`recallQueryHandler`
+  現在會呼叫 `appendRecallTelemetry`,`hitCount = emittedIds.length`
+  (post-budget,跟 HTTP 語意一致)、`projectId = null`(MCP schema 未帶
+  project 參數)。Regression test 加在 `tests/mcp.test.ts`,用
+  `CCRECALL_RECALL_TELEMETRY_PATH` 隔離 test log。
+
+### 備註
+
+- 在觀察 v0.3.2 7 天 hit-rate window 的人,原訂 5/28 deadline 應視為失效,
+  從 v0.3.3 ship 日重新起算(新目標:6/04)。Bug 期內取得的樣本只反映
+  HTTP-direct 流量,無法外推到母體 — 該期間推估的 cold-rate 數值不是
+  v0.4.0 batch 決策的可靠證據。
