    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;You can now see what changed, when, and how the whole thing is made.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;New&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;This changelog, published on the site and updated with every release.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The version number in every footer, linked here.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bots.aspectora.site/built.html&quot;&gt;How it&#x27;s built&lt;/a&gt;: who builds Aspectobots, the AI that writes most of the code, the tools and hosting we use, and how a change gets from an idea to the live site.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Changed&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Nothing goes live without a changelog entry: our deploy tool stops unless each release has a new version number and its notes on this page.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <title>v0.6.0: Studio polish and staff 2FA</title>

    <content type="html">&lt;h3&gt;New&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A live, Discord-style preview of your panels while you set up a bot in the Studio.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Download your bot&#x27;s code&lt;/strong&gt; on Architect and up: a zip under the MIT license that runs on any PHP host. Your bot token is never in it.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Staff 2FA setup shows a scannable QR code (made on our own server, so the key never goes to an outside service), the apps that work, and every detail for typing it in by hand.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Changed&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Every page has the site menu and the full footer now, the Studio and the staff dashboard included. The phone menu adds Terms, Security, Server builds and Support.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The holiday theme switch moved out of the footer and into Studio Settings, where it follows your account.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Fixed&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The site said exported bots come as a Docker image. They don&#x27;t: they run on any PHP host. The wording now says so.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;The site became a product site, and the early alpha began.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;New&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Customer bots:&lt;/strong&gt; connect your own Discord app in the Studio, then set up a rules gate, button roles and tickets on your servers.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Plans: Resident, Commons, Architect and Guild, with limits enforced on our server. Billing is still off.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bots.aspectora.site/security.html&quot;&gt;Security and your token&lt;/a&gt;: why we need your bot token, what it can do, how we protect it and where that protection stops.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;A support desk with departments. Email to support@, security@ and our other addresses becomes a ticket, answered in one place.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Member settings: your name, email change, Night or Day and holiday themes that follow your account, sign out everywhere, and download all your data.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Staff onboarding: invites, signed volunteer agreements, a security quiz, and a register of the AI helpers on the team.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Staff 2FA backup codes, and a password reset by email for the one emergency admin login.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Changed&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The site runs behind Cloudflare&#x27;s free plan for protection and speed.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Visit statistics come from Cloudflare Web Analytics, which uses no cookies.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;An early alpha strip on every page, and honest lists of what works today, what&#x27;s being built and what&#x27;s next.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;h3&gt;New&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Aspecto, our own bot, runs our Discord servers: button roles, tickets with transcripts sent to you, and a Halloween trick-or-treat.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The rules gate: plain-English house rules and one &quot;I&#x27;m in&quot; button.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Accounts: sign in to the Studio with Discord or a one-time email link. No passwords.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The staff dashboard: Discord sign-in plus an authenticator code, and a log of every staff action.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Server builder: starter messages can link straight to a channel.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Changed&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Role-play template: moderators can see and moderate every scene.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

Drag, resize and rearrange the cards.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Market check: price comparisons with other Discord bots, every number sourced and linked.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The Halloween season: pumpkin theme, an aurora sky, costumes and a wardrobe for the 3D bot. The classic look stays one switch away.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Changed&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Our prices are marked as early prototype prices, subject to change.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>
