+description: Prepare a new release by updating CHANGELOG.md with changes since the last tag and bumping version numbers in pyproject.toml and ui/package.json
+---
+
+# Prepare Release
+
+When preparing a release, follow these steps:
+
+## 1. Fetch tags and identify the last release
+
+```bash
+git fetch --tags
+git tag --sort=-creatordate | head -5
+```
+
+## 2. Get commits since the last release
+
+```bash
+git log --oneline <last-tag>..HEAD
+```
+
+## 3. Read current files
+
+Read these files to understand current state:
+- `CHANGELOG.md` - to understand the format and existing entries
+- `pyproject.toml` - to get current version
+- `ui/package.json` - to get current UI version
+
+## 4. Update CHANGELOG.md
+
+- Add a new version section at the top (below the `# Changelog` header)
+- Organize changes into categories:
+  - **Breaking Changes** - API changes that require user action
+  - **New Features** - New functionality
+  - **Internal Improvements** - Refactoring, tests, tooling
+- Use bold headers for each change group
+- Use bullet points for details
+- If there was an "Unreleased" section, rename it to the previous version
+
+## 5. Bump versions
+
+Update the version string in:
+- `pyproject.toml` - the `version` field under `[project]`
+- `ui/package.json` - the `"version"` field
+
+Use semantic versioning:
+- Patch (0.0.x) for bug fixes
+- Minor (0.x.0) for new features
+- Major (x.0.0) for breaking changes
+
+## 6. Summary
+
+After completing, summarize what was updated:
+- New version number
+- Key changes added to changelog
+- Files modified

 # Changelog
 
-## Unreleased
+## v0.1.4
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+**Renamed `WorkerPool` to `Pool`**
+- `ax.WorkerPool` is now `ax.Pool` for cleaner API
+- Update imports: `from agentexec import Pool`
+
+**Activity percentage field renamed**
+- `completion_%` renamed to `percentage` for cleaner field naming
+
+### New Features
+
+**Pipelines run on workers**
+- Pipelines can now be executed on worker processes
+- Register pipelines with the pool and enqueue them like tasks
+
+**Tracker for stateful counters**
+- New `Tracker` class for managing stateful counters across workers
+- Useful for tracking progress, metrics, and distributed state
+
+**Strict Pipeline type flow validation**
+- All step parameters and return types must be `BaseModel` subclasses
+- Type flow between consecutive steps is validated at runtime
+- Tuple returns are unpacked and matched to next step's parameters
+- Final step must return a single `BaseModel` (not a tuple)
+- Empty pipelines raise `RuntimeError` at class definition time
+
+### Internal Improvements
+
+**Type checking with `ty`**
+- Added `ty` type checker to development workflow
+- Better Protocol definitions for step handlers
+- Improved type hints throughout pipeline module
+
+**Better Pipeline flow tests**
+- Comprehensive test coverage for valid and invalid type flows
+- Tests for tuple unpacking, subclass compatibility, count mismatches
+- Tests for primitive type rejection and edge cases
+
+## v0.1.3
