 # Changelog
 
+## [1.37.8] — 2026-08-10
+
+### Added
+
+- The assistant can answer questions about your practice visits now, both what happened and what is coming up. A new reading over the assistant wire returns your visit history for a window you ask about, with the practitioner, the reason and the outcome, and it says plainly when you have never recorded a visit rather than reading an empty list as if nothing exists. Upcoming appointments arrive alongside the preventive-care due-list rather than as a separate question, so "what is coming up" has one answer. The Coach carries a small visits note as well, so it knows an appointment is near and which practice you last saw without being handed your whole visit archive.
+
+### Security
+
+- A warning written to the server log is scrubbed of secrets on the way in now, the same as an error message or a request path already was. A warning often carries an outbound error string, and for a few integrations that string is a request URL with a credential in it, so closing this entry point removes the last place a secret could reach the log unredacted.

+ * v1.38 — doctor-visit context block for the Coach snapshot.
+ *
+ * Lets the Coach know a visit is COMING (so it does not push a "book an
+ * appointment" nudge at someone who already has one on the calendar) and what
+ * the LAST one was about, without being handed a visit archive. A full visit
+ * history is a `get_visits` question, not a prompt-budget one, so this block is
+ * deliberately small:
+ *
+ *   - the upcoming appointments within a short horizon (14 days), and
+ *   - the single most recent past visit that actually happened.
+ *
+ * Nothing more. The snapshot runs under a hard character cap that progressively
+ * degrades low-priority clusters, and every added block competes with an
+ * existing one; the block is registered against the lowest-priority cluster in
+ * `snapshot.ts` so it is among the first shed when the cap binds.
+ *
+ * The two free-text columns are `Bytes` ciphertext and decrypt fail-soft: a
+ * key-rotation gap on one row reads as a missing reason/outcome, not a thrown
+ * snapshot build. Every free-text string that enters the prompt routes through
+ * `sanitizeForPrompt` first, the same rule `labs-snapshot.ts` / `illness-
+ * snapshot.ts` follow: a reason transcribed out of an uploaded document is
+ * attacker-reachable, and the block is fenced as data at the prompt boundary.
+ * The Coach reads these as context and never states a cause from them.
+ *
+ * No module gate: a visit is core (the reasoning is written at the `Encounter`
+ * model). `userId` is narrowed from the authenticated session by the caller and
+ * feeds the Prisma `where` field-by-field; it is never an input.
