 ## Overview
 
-Targeted reliability release resolving two persistent issues from v0.1.4: GUI favicons not surviving CustomTkinter's startup icon overrides, and a stale hardcoded user-agent string. Also eliminates recurring snapshot maintenance caused by version bumps and removes non-functional JSON Feed and WP REST input support.
+Cleanup release that removes non-functional JSON Feed and WordPress REST API input adapters after multiple failed implementation attempts. The codebase is now streamlined to XML-based feed parsing only (RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0/RDF, Atom 1.0, RSS 0.9x, Atom 0.3). JSON output remains the sole output format — unchanged.

-## Bug Fixes
+## Breaking Changes
 
 ### Removed: JSON Feed and WordPress REST API Input Support
 
-- **Removed all JSON Feed (input) and WordPress REST API (input) adapters, detection logic, fixtures, and tests** — These features were persistently non-functional after multiple implementation attempts. Input parsing now supports XML-based feeds only (RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0/RDF, Atom 1.0, RSS 0.9x, Atom 0.3).
+- **Removed all JSON Feed (input) and WordPress REST API (input) adapters, detection logic, fixtures, and tests** — These features were persistently non-functional after multiple implementation attempts and have been fully excised from the codebase.
 - **Output format is unchanged** — All output is still JSON. Only the *input* JSON Feed and WP REST adapters have been removed.
-- Files removed: `json_feed_adapter.py`, `wp_rest_adapter.py`, `tests/fixtures/json_feed/`, `tests/fixtures/wp_rest/`, `tests/snapshots/json_feed/`, `tests/snapshots/wp_rest/`
+- Files removed: `json_feed_adapter.py`, `wp_rest_adapter.py`, and associated fixture/snapshot directories
 - Enum values `"json_feed"` and `"wp_rest"` removed from `source.type`
+- Detection logic removed: `_detect_json_type()`, `derive_wp_rest_posts_url()`, JSON-path routing in detector
+- Parser routing for JSON Feed and WP REST removed from `_route_to_adapter()`
+- Dead code removed: JSON Feed attachments mapping in `_normalize_enclosures()`
+- CLI help text and examples updated to reflect XML-only input support
+- Documentation updated throughout: README, spec, plan, and release notes
 
-### GUI Favicon — Win32 API Override
+### Supported Input Formats (as of v0.1.6)
 
-- **Fixed: Favicons still not appearing after 3+ prior attempts** — Replaced the unreliable multi-timer race (4 staggered `after()` calls) with a definitive approach:
-  - On Windows, uses Win32 API (`LoadImageW` + `SendMessageW` with `WM_SETICON`) via ctypes to set both ICON_SMALL (16×16) and ICON_BIG (32×32) at the OS/window-manager level, completely bypassing tkinter
-  - After applying, monkey-patches `iconbitmap` to a no-op so CustomTkinter can never override the icon again
-  - Falls back to standard tkinter `iconbitmap` + `wm_iconphoto` on non-Windows platforms
-
-### Hardcoded User-Agent Fixed
-
-- **Fixed: HTTP User-Agent reporting `shruggie-feedtools/0.1.1` regardless of actual version** — `ParserConfig.user_agent` now uses a `field(default_factory=...)` that reads `__version__` at runtime instead of a hardcoded string. The user-agent will always match the installed version going forward.
+| Format | Example Sources |
+|---|---|
+| RSS 2.0 | Most blogs, podcasts, news sites |
+| RSS 1.0 / RDF | Older syndication feeds |
+| RSS 0.91 / 0.92 | Legacy feeds |
+| Atom 1.0 | GitHub releases, YouTube, status pages |
+| Atom 0.3 | Older Atom feeds |

-## Test Infrastructure
-
-### Version-Resilient Snapshots
-
-- **Fixed: Snapshot tests breaking on every version bump** — The `assert_snapshot` fixture in `conftest.py` now normalizes `shruggie-feedtools/X.Y.Z` to a stable placeholder before comparing, so construct snapshots no longer fail when `_version.py` is bumped. Supports semver and pre-release suffixes.
-
-### New Tests
+## Test Results
 
-| Area | Tests Added | Description |
-|---|---|---|
-| `test_detector.py` | 3 | Content-type fallback, BOM handling, XML detection |
-| **Total** | **3 new** | **Tests passing** |
+- **276 tests passing** (down from 278 in v0.1.5 — net removal of 46 tests from deleted adapters, offset by prior additions)
+- All remaining XML-based adapter, detector, parser, normalizer, schema, CLI, construct, and template tests pass
