https://valuesincare.com/changelog What shipped, and when — plain factual summaries, newest first. en-us Tue, 21 Jul 2026 10:49:10 +0000 https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-21-three-new-tradition-guides-plus-a-round-of-usability-polish Tue, 21 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Added Orthodox Christianity, Latter-day Saints, and Baháʼí Faith to the faith-tradition guides and the faith-clinical matrix — DNR, artificial nutrition and hydration, palliative sedation, hospice, and organ-donation positions for each, sourced from each tradition's own official or authoritative bodies. These entries carry a "Citation review pending" status and an expert-consensus (not verified) confidence tier, since they haven't yet been independently reviewed or machine-verified against a live source; two Baháʼí positions with no named institutional source are marked as inferred rather than sourced. Also this round: the citation drawer and the tradition-request dialog now trap focus and announce as proper dialogs; form fields across /traditions and /partners give visible error and in-progress feedback instead of failing silently; mobile search gained keyboard navigation and a real empty state; several trust pages picked up a consistent header label and a print button; and the changelog gained RSS and JSON feeds. Every published claim can now be linked to directly and reported if something looks wrong. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-21-persona-and-settings-coherence Tue, 21 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 The six audience personas now share one canonical definition — labels, groupings, icons, and starting destinations — across the header switcher, the homepage pickers, and the per-persona pages, ending years of drift where the same role carried different names and behaviors on different surfaces. Each /lens page became a real landing hub with a starting-page button and curated links to existing content. Pages whose introduction adapts to the reader now show a visible "Viewing as" line with a one-click way to change it. Settings gained a three-way Light/Dark/System theme control, text-size controls on mobile (previously desktop-only), and an honest note that Calm Mode's palette overrides the theme choice. The clinical-decision topic switcher now exposes proper tab semantics to assistive technology. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-21-excellence-pass-honest-freshness-fabrication-removal-deploy-hardening Tue, 21 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 The integrity report now computes its own age at view time and discloses when the last automated check is stale instead of presenting a frozen date as fresh; every unconditional "verified weekly" claim sitewide was reworded to point at the report's actual run date. A never-linked page with placeholder host profiles was deleted outright. The intro video's statistics scene was corrected to match the site's real counts and re-rendered. Deploy configuration added (SPA fallback, long-lived asset caching, security headers), performance tightened (async font loading, lighter back-to-top, real video poster, 2.6KB multi-size favicon), and the SEO surface completed: Organization structured data, installable PWA icons, security.txt, and per-route share-image tags. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-20-zero-debt-pass-full-validation-coverage-smarter-search-video-intro Mon, 20 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Citation validation now covers every citation-shaped object in the repository — 304 records including the shared-values cells and the verified-resource library (moved into the data layer, with one mislabeled entry corrected against PubMed). Global search surfaces evidence claims and citations, not just pages. Lint reached zero errors and warnings, the build toolchain was upgraded (resolving the last two dependency vulnerabilities), and the homepage regained its 20-second intro video, re-rendered with the corrected domain. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-20-evidence-index-citation-reverse-lookup-and-dataset-discoverability Mon, 20 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 New /evidence page consolidating all 181 published claims in one browsable, filterable place (topic, claim type, NCP domain, full-text search). The bibliography gained a citation-to-claims reverse lookup ("Cited by N published claims" per source) and its search now matches claim text and notes. Dataset JSON-LD now lists all four download formats and renders on the bibliography page for dataset-search discoverability. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-20-research-consolidation-tooling-and-planned-services-disclosure Mon, 20 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Bibliography exports added in BibTeX and RIS alongside JSON/CSV, with dataset citation guidance on Methodology. Every citation on /citations gained a stable permalink and copy-link button. The citation validator was extended beyond the bibliography to every citation object in the data-hub, practices, and interfaith-bodies files (269 records checked). Live evidence counts (citations, claims, topics) replaced smaller hardcoded figures on the homepage and Get Involved page, and Get Involved gained the "Beyond the platform" section disclosing planned — not yet offered — in-person services. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-15-sitewide-design-consolidation-and-data-freshness-audit Wed, 15 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Shared badge and notice-box component system replaced 14 hand-rolled amber notice blocks and unified status badges across six pages, with WCAG contrast verification extended to the new variants. A date/data-freshness audit backfilled citation-log entries, removed dead code, and added plausibility checks (future dates, year-before-access) to the citation validator. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-14-uk-end-of-life-module-and-region-module-schema Tue, 14 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 First non-US country module: UK end-of-life care evidence (NICE guidance, UK hospice literature) added alongside the US-default content, with the provider directory generalized into an explicit region-module structure. Tradition-authority sources for the UK remain at the deferred tier pending live verification, consistent with the rest of the site. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-12-thirteen-topic-pages-beyond-end-of-life-care Sun, 12 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Full breadth build-out: evidence pages published for mental health, fasting & medication, blood products, dietary law, modesty & gender-concordant care, organ transplant receiving, maternal & reproductive care, pediatric serious illness, vaccination & preventive care, substance use & harm reduction, aging & disability caregiving, genetics & emerging-technology ethics, and secular/humanist values (verification cycles CC-15 through CC-26), plus the Counseling & Support hub. Every claim traces to an already-verified citation; topic statuses stay honestly marked in-development. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-11-full-wcag-aa-color-contrast-compliance Sat, 11 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Dedicated link color token introduced across all three themes, 188 link usages migrated, in-text links made distinguishable without color, and the previously disabled color-contrast rule re-enabled in the accessibility test suite — all routes now pass WCAG 2 A/AA checks with no exclusions. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-10-partner-readiness-qa-and-credibility-audit Fri, 10 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Sitewide audit fixed stale dates, hardened the partner intake form, added disclosure sections (what the citation checker does and does not verify, allow-list coverage imbalance, legal/organizational status), and expanded the test suite with accessibility, mobile, and print coverage. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-08-claim-abstract-fidelity-audit Wed, 08 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Every published claim was re-read against its cited source's abstract; ambiguous claims were rewritten or re-tagged, and defects found in the process were corrected (verification cycles CC-7 and CC-8). https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-07-07-evidence-modules-and-vbc-payment-corrections Tue, 07 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Care-team, psychological-care, ethical-legal, and caregiver evidence modules shipped with per-claim citations, alongside corrections to value-based-care payment-model details (verification cycle CC-6). https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-06-17-citation-integrity-tooling-and-dataset-versioning Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000 The machine-verification pipeline became public infrastructure: versioned dataset exports, the weekly citation-integrity job publishing unedited results to /integrity, and the interfaith-source allow-list enforced in CI. https://valuesincare.com/changelog https://valuesincare.com/changelog#2026-03-03-launch-evidence-snapshot Tue, 03 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Initial citation batch verified and published: global palliative-care policy, spiritual care and chaplaincy, tradition-specific end-of-life sources, and the Michigan provider directory.
