+## [3.3.0] - 2026-03-29
+
+### ✨ Enhancements & Refactoring
+
+- **Release Stabilization** — Finalized v3.2.9 release (combo diagnostics, quality gates, Gemini tool fix) and created missing git tag. Consolidated all staged changes into a single atomic release commit.
+
+### 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+- **Auto-Update Test** — Fixed `buildDockerComposeUpdateScript` test assertion to match unexpanded shell variable references (`$TARGET_TAG`, `${TARGET_TAG#v}`) in the generated deploy script, aligning with the refactored template from v3.2.8.
+- **Circuit Breaker Test** — Hardened `combo-circuit-breaker.test.mjs` by injecting `maxRetries: 0` to prevent retry inflation from skewing failure count assertions during breaker state transitions.
