+## [1.8.0] - 2026-04-09
+
+### Added
+- Sitemap-based KB change detection system (`scripts/kb-update/`)
+  - `build-registry.mjs` — extracts 1342 unique URLs from 387 reference files
+  - `poll-sitemaps.mjs` — streams 18 Microsoft Learn sitemaps for `<lastmod>` changes
+  - `report-changes.mjs` — prioritized change report (critical/high/medium/low)
+  - `discover-new-urls.mjs` — finds relevant new MS Learn pages not yet covered
+  - `run-weekly-update.mjs` — weekly orchestrator with `--force`, `--discover`, `--dry-run`
+- Shared libraries: `url-normalize.mjs`, `sitemap-stream.mjs`, `registry-io.mjs` (zero npm deps)
+- Background poll trigger in session-start hook (auto-runs if >7 days since last check)
+
+### Changed
+- Session-start hook reads sitemap-based change report instead of broken mtime staleness check
+- `generate-skills --update` reads `change-report.json` for targeted MCP updates with `changed_urls`
+- KB maintenance section in README updated with automated freshness and auto-update info
+
+### Deprecated
+- `scripts/kb-staleness-check.sh` (mtime-based, unreliable after git clone — kept for backwards compat)
+
+---

 ## [1.7.0] - 2026-04-07
