# Comcast — Firebolt API release history
#
# Comcast publishes no dated changelog page on docs.developer.comcast.com. What
# it publishes instead is the versioned specification itself: tagged releases of
# the Firebolt OpenRPC contracts, and a full side-by-side reference for four
# API versions on the docs host. This artifact records that, from the tags and
# from the version-stamped documents in openrpc/ — not from a changelog page
# that does not exist.

  No dated changelog, release-notes or "what's new" page appears anywhere in the
  351-entry docs index at https://docs.developer.comcast.com/llms.txt. Version
  history is discoverable only from the repository tags and from the fact that
  four API versions are documented in parallel.

      Tagged in the repository. Comcast does not publish a 1.6.0 reference on the
      docs host — the docs jump 1.5.0 to 1.7.0 — so 1.6.0 has a contract but no
      published human reference.
