## What this PR does Adds `docs/changelogs/v1.6.0.md` (667 lines), generated locally with the process in `docs/agents/changelog.md`. Normally `tags.yaml`'s `generate-changelog` job produces this on the stable tag push, but that job never ran for `v1.6.0` — see the note below. **Coverage boundary.** The changelog runs through #3386, i.e. the release period ending at the `v1.6.0-rc.4` cut. Roughly eight PRs merged to `main` after that cut are deliberately absent, because `v1.6.0` is a promotion rather than a rebuild: every shipped artifact is pinned to an rc.4 digest (`cozystack-packages@sha256:bf682087…`, `cozystack-operator@sha256:93b305f7…`), so that later code is in the tagged tree but not in anything users install. The changelog describes what shipped. **Why this is a manual PR.** `generate-changelog` and `update-website-docs` are jobs in `tags.yaml`, triggered by `push: tags`. The `v1.6.0` tag was pushed by `pull-requests-release.yaml`'s finalize job using the `cozystack-ci` app token, and no workflow run was created for that ref — every rc tag, pushed by `cut-prerelease.yaml` with the same app, did trigger it. `v1.6.0` is the first stable tag created through the promote flow, so this path had never run before. The cause is not yet established and needs a repro rather than a guess; the website docs versioning is still outstanding for the same reason. ### Screenshots N/A — documentation only. ### Downstream repositories Walked the trigger map in `docs/agents/contributing.md` against the diff, which is a single new file under `docs/changelogs/`. No trigger matches: the map covers package layout, release assets, CRDs, workflow behaviour and naming contracts, none of which a changelog file touches. The separate repository list in `docs/agents/changelog.md` was already consumed while generating this file — it feeds the notes, it is not a code coupling. - [x] No downstream repository is affected by this change - [ ] [cozystack/website](https://github.com/cozystack/website) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ansible-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/ansible-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ccp](https://github.com/cozystack/ccp) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/talm](https://github.com/cozystack/talm) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozyhr](https://github.com/cozystack/cozyhr) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozy-proxy](https://github.com/cozystack/cozy-proxy) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server](https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/external-apps-example](https://github.com/cozystack/external-apps-example) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/examples](https://github.com/cozystack/examples) - follow-up: ### Release note ```release-note NONE ``` <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Added comprehensive release notes for version 1.6.0. * Documented breaking changes, upgrade prerequisites, manual upgrade steps, and post-upgrade expectations. * Highlighted major features, deprecations, security updates, bug fixes, operational notes, and component version updates. * Included configuration, CI, development, and related-project changelog updates. * Added contributor acknowledgements and a link to the full changelog. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->
