+# DeepSQL v1.3.0
+
+**Weekly product cut** — DeepSQL Desktop (IDE) first ship, plus Agent/Brain/Editor hardening on top of `v1.2.0`.
+
+## Highlights
+
+### DeepSQL Desktop (headline)
+
+Native Electron client for a self-hosted DeepSQL server — the biggest addition in this cut (#73).
+
+- **Thin client, not a second frontend** — embeds the live DeepSQL UI from your VM origin (no bundled SPA, no version skew).
+- **Two transports** — direct TLS (system / pinned / custom CA / TOFU) or in-process SSH tunnel (`ssh2`, no `ssh` binary).
+- **Connection profiles** — per-profile sessions; secrets stored as OS keychain ciphertext when available.
+- **CORS requirement** — SSH tunnels use `http://127.0.0.1:<sticky-port>`, so the VM must allow loopback wildcards in `CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS` (`http://127.0.0.1:*,http://localhost:*`). Documented in `desktop/README.md`, `README.md`, and `docs/root/SELF_HOST_GUIDE.md`.
+- **Installers** — tag `desktop-v1.0.0` after this product cut to run `.github/workflows/desktop-release.yml` (macOS / Windows / Linux native runners).
+
+```bash
+cd desktop
+npm install
+npm start          # or: npm run dev
+# headless Linux GUI: xvfb-run npm start
+```
+
+### Agent & security
+
+- **MCP credential isolation** — Agent provisioner no longer mirrors tokens across every Hermes profile (cross-user last-writer-wins leak closed) (#78).
+- **MCP token identity binding** — server refuses a token whose owner does not match `X-DeepSQL-Client-Agent` when that header names a DeepSQL user.
+- **View as Agent** — impersonated Agent sessions enforce the *target* user’s chat/data policy (#71).
+- **Schema allowlist** — chat policy schema allowlist walks the whole statement, not only outer `FROM`/`JOIN` (#70).
+- **Brain endpoint authz** — Brain APIs require connection content access, not merely authentication (#72).
+
+### Brain & Review
+
+- **Review queue approvals** — `CODE_DERIVED` CHECK compatibility, stale-list refresh, bulk decide surfaces `failures[]` (#74).
+- **Suggestion approval unwedge** — schema-doc dedupe / upsert path so approvals stick; knowledge counts refresh live (#77).
+- **Enforceable Agent writes** — non-blocking save bubbles; Agent only offers brain-note saves when the user can manage content (#75).
+
+### Editor
+
+- **CSV export bound** — export no longer re-runs unbounded / 10-minute queries that outrun the proxy (#76).
+- Concurrent-run guards and cancel auditing for Editor query sessions (#76).
+
+## Install / upgrade
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/DeepSQLAI/deepsql.git
+cd deepsql
+git checkout v1.3.0
+cp .env.example .env
+# set SECURITY_JWT_SECRET, ENCRYPTION_KEY (or ENCRYPTION_KEYS), and DEEPSQL_CHAT_* in .env
+# for Desktop tunnels, include loopback wildcards in CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS
+docker compose up --build -d
+```
+
+From `v1.2.0`: pull/checkout `v1.3.0` and rebuild Compose (or swap JAR + frontend tarball from this Release). Schema is managed by `ddl-auto=update`. Hand SQL changelog `V116` (schema documentation dedupe) is optional when not relying on `ddl-auto=update` / startup initializers.
+
+Air-gapped: download artifacts below, verify `SHA256SUMS`, follow `docs/oss-ux/RELEASE.md`.
+
+### Optional: DeepSQL Desktop
+
+See [`desktop/README.md`](../../desktop/README.md). After the product tag is published, cut Desktop installers with:
+
+```bash
+git tag -a desktop-v1.0.0 -m "DeepSQL Desktop v1.0.0"
+git push origin desktop-v1.0.0
+```
+
+## Artifacts in this release
+
+| File | Contents |
+|------|----------|
+| `deepsql-1.3.0-source.tar.gz` / `.zip` | Source tree at this tag |
+| `dba-agent-backend-1.3.0.jar` | Spring Boot executable |
+| `deepsql-frontend-1.3.0.tar.gz` | Production static UI |
+| `deepsql-mcp-0.27.1.tgz` | CLI + MCP server package |
+| `sbom-*.cdx.json` | CycloneDX SBOMs |
+| `SHA256SUMS` / `SHA512SUMS` | Integrity hashes |
+| `manifest.json` | Machine-readable inventory |
+
+Desktop installers (dmg / zip / exe / AppImage / deb) attach to the separate `desktop-v1.0.0` GitHub Release when that tag is pushed.
+
+```bash
+sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS
+```
+
+## Verify
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/self-host/e2e-agent-check.py
+python3 scripts/self-host/e2e-multischema-check.py
+# Desktop (optional):
+cd desktop && npm run selftest:tunnel && npm run smoke -- --url https://your-deepsql-origin
+```
+
+Expect `AGENT_OK True`, `DASH_OK True`, and `✓ Multi-schema E2E OK`.
+
+## Not in this cut
+
+- **Workspaces & custom roles** (#80) — still open; merge after the favorite-endpoint authorization fix and rebase onto this release.
+
+## Cadence
+
+Product releases are cut **weekly, Saturday 09:00 America/Los_Angeles**. See `docs/oss-ux/RELEASE.md` and `docs/oss-ux/WEEKLY_RELEASE_AUTOMATION.md`.
