What probably matters to youSection of the release

A v5 storage backend path exists for transcripts and changelog, but nothing supplies a backend in this build.

What

New code paths route storage through a backend object rather than the filesystem, covering transcript loads, the usage-report session scan and changelog fetch and migration.

Details
  • Transcript loading takes a storageV5 { backend, key } option; a permission failure yields an empty transcript, other errors throw.
  • The usage-report session scan enumerates entries under the transcript namespace with cursor paging instead of walking project directories.
  • Changelog fetch and migration write to a storage key with an ifAbsent precondition.
  • All three fall back to the existing file paths when no backend is supplied; what supplies a backend could not be determined in this build.
Evidence

loadTranscriptFile: v5 read inaccessible (permission) — empty result

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
