+## [1.7.1] / Rust crate 0.3.1 — 2026-05-18
+
+Closes the ADR-001 roadmap. With this release the package is functionally SOTA per the ADR's own criterion (6 of 6 roadmap items shipped; README cites complexity classes as a first-class API surface; only CI J/solve integration remains, blocked on GH Actions exposing power counters).
+
+### Added
+
+- **MCP tool surface advertises complexity** (ADR-001 #4). `solve` and `solveTrueSublinear` JSON schemas now carry an `x-complexity` extension with `class`, `default`/`worst` for Adaptive solvers, `detail`, and `edgeSafe`. Clients can read it at `tools/list` time.
+- **`max_complexity_class` input arg + server-side enforcement.** Both solver handlers reject the call with a structured `InvalidRequest` when the chosen method's worst-case class exceeds the caller's budget. No-op when the arg is absent (wire-compatible). Per-method class table mirrors the Rust `Complexity` impls.
+- **New `estimateComplexityClass` MCP tool.** O(1) lookup against the per-method class table. Returns class + detail + edgeSafe so an agent can decide between 'spend the J/decision'and 'cache lookup' before invoking a solver.
+- README's new "🧮 Complexity as a First-Class API Surface" section explaining the type-level + wire-level contract.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **`[profile.bench]` now sets `panic = "unwind"`** so criterion's transitive deps (regex_syntax, aho_corasick, memchr, log, humantime, is_terminal, termcolor) can link. Without this, criterion's `catch_unwind`-using measurement loop fails the CI bench-smoke job after a recent dep drift tightened panic-strategy requirements.
+- Cargo.toml gains an explicit `include` list so future npm/WASM artifact directories cannot silently push the crate tarball past the 10 MB crates.io cap. (The v1.7.0 publish narrowly avoided this; the v1.7.1 cycle hit it head-on. Fixed forward.)

+## 🧮 Complexity as a First-Class API Surface
+
+Every public solver, sampler, and analyser in this crate declares its **worst-case complexity class at the type level** (`Complexity` trait, compile-time `const CLASS`) and at the **MCP wire level** (`x-complexity` JSON Schema extension on every tool). Callers with a J/decision budget — Cognitum reflex loops, RuView change detection, Ruflo agentic inner loops — can refuse anything over budget at *tool-list time*, not after the call returns.
+
+The 12-tier taxonomy (`Logarithmic` → `DoubleExponential`, plus `Adaptive { default, worst }` for solvers that degrade on hard inputs) lives in `src/complexity.rs`. The decision rationale and full 6-item roadmap is in [`docs/adr/ADR-001-complexity-as-architecture.md`](docs/adr/ADR-001-complexity-as-architecture.md).
+
+Headline classes in v1.7+:
+
+| Solver | Class | Per-call cost |
+|---|---|---|
+| `SublinearNeumannSolver` (single entry) | `Adaptive { Logarithmic, Linear }` | `O(log n)` on DD systems; `O(n)` base case |
+| `OptimizedConjugateGradientSolver` | `Linear` | `O(k · nnz(A))`, k ≈ √κ(A) |
+| `NeumannSolver` | `Linear` | `O(k · nnz(A))` per iter |
+| `solve_on_change(prev, sparse_delta)` | `Linear` (in `nnz(A)`, with `k_warm ≪ k_cold`) | Steady-state cost for streaming workloads |
+| `find_anomalous_rows(baseline, current, k)` | `Linear` today, → `SubLinear` phase 2 | `O(n log k)` baseline; `O(k log n)` planned |
+| `coherence_score(matrix)` | `Linear` | `O(nnz(A))` — refuses near-singular solves before they run |
+
+Runtime introspection via `dyn ComplexityIntrospect`, or `mcp__sublinear__estimateComplexityClass` over the wire. Energy numbers (`J/solve`) — the metric that actually matters on a Pi Zero — captured via `examples/joules_per_decision.rs` (Linux RAPL / hwmon / time-only fallback).
