Moved Pro-specific features and fixes from open-source CHANGELOG to react_on_rails_pro/CHANGELOG: **Moved to Pro changelog:** - PR 1970: Node Renderer Worker Restart fix (Pro feature) - PR 1995: Body Duplication Bug On Streaming (Pro feature) - PR 2015: Concurrent Streaming Performance improvement (Pro feature) - PR 2008: Node Renderer Configuration deprecation (Pro feature) **Rationale:** - Node renderer is primarily a Pro feature (remote rendering) - Streaming is a Pro-exclusive feature - These entries belong in the Pro changelog for Pro users **Open-source changelog now contains only:** - Features available to all users - Fixes for issues affecting non-Pro users - General improvements not tied to Pro features 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]>

📋 Verification ChecklistI verified the following claims from the PR description:
🎯 Changelog Guidelines ComplianceChecking against CLAUDE.md changelog guidelines:
💡 SuggestionsMinor: Consider Adding Transition CommentConsider adding a brief comment in the changelog under the Fixed section explaining the curation: #### Fixed
<!-- Note: Beta-specific fixes and developer-only tooling fixes have been removed from this changelog.
Only fixes relevant to users upgrading from 16.1.x are included. -->This could help future maintainers understand the curation philosophy, though it's not strictly necessary given the clear PR documentation. Documentation: Update CLAUDE.md?Consider adding a section to CLAUDE.md about changelog curation for beta releases: ### Beta Release Changelog Curation
When preparing a beta for stable release:
- Remove developer-only fixes (yalc, git dependencies, CI improvements)
- Remove beta-specific fixes (bugs introduced during the beta cycle)
- Keep all user-facing fixes that affect stable users upgrading from previous stable version
- Document your analysis in the PR for future referenceBut this is optional - your PR description already serves as excellent documentation. 🔍 Code Quality Assessment
✅ RecommendationAPPROVED - This PR is ready to merge. The changelog curation is thorough, well-researched, and follows sound principles for what end users need to know when upgrading. The Pro changelog improvements are particularly valuable for clarity and organization. Great work on the detailed analysis! 🚀 |

Code Review: Changelog Cleanup for v16.2.0.beta.11Overall Assessment✅ Excellent work! This PR demonstrates thorough investigation and proper changelog hygiene. The rationale for each removal is well-documented and follows best practices for semantic versioning and user-facing documentation. Strengths
Code Quality✅ Formatting: All entries follow the proper format with PR numbers and contributor links Documentation QualityThe PR description is exemplary:
Potential Concerns / QuestionsMinor: Duplicate "### Added" Headers in Pro Changelog I noticed the Pro changelog has two consecutive "### Added" sections (lines 26 and 30 in the diff). This appears to be a pre-existing issue, not introduced by this PR. Consider consolidating these in a follow-up: ### Added
- Added `config.concurrent_component_streaming_buffer_size` configuration option...
- Added `cached_stream_react_component` helper method...
- **License Validation System**: Implemented comprehensive JWT-based license validation...Question: Version Timeline Verification The changelog states PR #2052 (duplicate rake tasks) was a bug since 16.0.0. I couldn't independently verify the exact introduction point from the git history due to merge commits, but:
If you have verification that this existed in 16.0.0 (released 2025-09-16), that justifies keeping it. Security Considerations✅ No security concerns - this is documentation only Performance Considerations✅ No performance impact - this is documentation only Test Coverage✅ Not applicable - changelog entries don't require tests Recommendations
Compliance with CLAUDE.md Guidelines✅ Follows changelog format guidelines Final VerdictLGTM 🚀 This PR demonstrates excellent judgment in distinguishing between:
The thorough investigation and clear documentation set a great example for changelog maintenance. Approved for merge! |

The :async loading strategy is Pro-specific, but the doctor check helps non-Pro users understand they need Pro for this feature. This seems reasonable to keep in the main changelog as it's a doctor tool improvement. 🔍 Minor Issues
