+## [0.12.0] - 2025-12-26
+
+### Added
+
+#### Agent Tracing & Debugging
+- **New Module: `sentience.tracing`** - Built-in tracing infrastructure for debugging and analyzing agent behavior

+  - `AgentConfig` dataclass with defaults for snapshot limits, LLM settings, screenshot options
+- **New Module: `sentience.utils`** - Snapshot digest utilities
+  - `compute_snapshot_digests()` - Generate SHA256 fingerprints for loop detection
+  - `canonical_snapshot_strict()` - Digest including element text
+  - `canonical_snapshot_loose()` - Digest excluding text (layout only)

+  - `sentience/inspector.py` - Removed unused imports (F401)
+  - `tests/test_inspector.py` - Removed unused `pytest` import (F401)
+  - `tests/test_recorder.py` - Removed unused imports (F401)
+  - `tests/test_smart_selector.py` - Removed unused `pytest` import (F401)
+  - `tests/test_stealth.py` - Added `noqa` comments for intentional violations (E402, C901, F541)
+  - `tests/test_tracing.py` - Removed unused `TraceSink` import (F401)
+
+### Documentation
+- Updated `README.md` with comprehensive "Advanced Features" section covering tracing and utilities
+- Updated `docs/SDK_MANUAL.md` to v0.12.0 with new "Agent Tracing & Debugging" section
+- Added examples for:
+  - Basic tracing setup
+  - AgentConfig usage
+  - Snapshot digests for loop detection
+  - LLM prompt formatting
+  - Custom trace sinks
+
+### Testing
+- Added comprehensive test suites for new modules:
+  - `tests/test_tracing.py` - 10 tests for tracing infrastructure
+  - `tests/test_utils.py` - 22 tests for digest utilities
+  - `tests/test_formatting.py` - 9 tests for LLM formatting
+  - `tests/test_agent_config.py` - 9 tests for configuration
+- All 50 new tests passing ✅
+
+### Migration Guide
+
+#### For Existing Users
+No breaking changes! All new features are opt-in:
+
+```python
+# Old code continues to work exactly the same
+agent = SentienceAgent(browser, llm)
+agent.act("Click the button")
+
+# New optional features
+tracer = Tracer(run_id="run-123", sink=JsonlTraceSink("trace.jsonl"))
+config = AgentConfig(snapshot_limit=100, temperature=0.5)
+agent = SentienceAgent(browser, llm, tracer=tracer, config=config)
+agent.act("Click the button")  # Now traced!
+```
+
+#### Importing New Modules
+
+```python
+# Tracing
+from sentience.tracing import Tracer, JsonlTraceSink, TraceEvent, TraceSink
+
+# Configuration
+from sentience.agent_config import AgentConfig
+
+# Utilities
+from sentience.utils import (
+    compute_snapshot_digests,
+    canonical_snapshot_strict,
+    canonical_snapshot_loose,
+    sha256_digest
+)
+
+# Formatting
+from sentience.formatting import format_snapshot_for_llm
+```
+
+### Notes
+- This release focuses on developer experience and debugging capabilities
+- No changes to browser automation APIs
+- No changes to snapshot APIs
+- No changes to query/action APIs
+- Fully backward compatible with v0.11.0

+## Advanced Features (v0.12.0+)
+
+### Agent Tracing & Debugging
+
+The SDK now includes built-in tracing infrastructure for debugging and analyzing agent behavior:
+
+```python
+from sentience import SentienceBrowser, SentienceAgent
+from sentience.llm_provider import OpenAIProvider
+from sentience.tracing import Tracer, JsonlTraceSink
+from sentience.agent_config import AgentConfig
+
+# Create tracer to record agent execution
+tracer = Tracer(
+    run_id="my-agent-run-123",
+    sink=JsonlTraceSink("trace.jsonl")
+)
+
+# Configure agent behavior
+config = AgentConfig(
+    snapshot_limit=50,
+    temperature=0.0,
+    max_retries=1,
+    capture_screenshots=True
+)
+
+browser = SentienceBrowser()
+llm = OpenAIProvider(api_key="your-key", model="gpt-4o")
+
+# Pass tracer and config to agent
+agent = SentienceAgent(browser, llm, tracer=tracer, config=config)
+
+with browser:
+    browser.page.goto("https://example.com")
+
+    # All actions are automatically traced
+    agent.act("Click the sign in button")
+    agent.act("Type 'user@example.com' into email field")
+
+# Trace events saved to trace.jsonl
+# Events: step_start, snapshot, llm_query, action, step_end, error
+```
+
+**Trace Events Captured:**
+- `step_start` - Agent begins executing a goal
+- `snapshot` - Page state captured
+- `llm_query` - LLM decision made (includes tokens, model, response)
+- `action` - Action executed (click, type, press)
+- `step_end` - Step completed successfully
+- `error` - Error occurred during execution
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Debug why agent failed or got stuck
+- Analyze token usage and costs
+- Replay agent sessions
+- Train custom models from successful runs
+- Monitor production agents
+
+### Snapshot Utilities
+
+New utility functions for working with snapshots:
+
+```python
+from sentience import snapshot
+from sentience.utils import compute_snapshot_digests, canonical_snapshot_strict
+from sentience.formatting import format_snapshot_for_llm
+
+snap = snapshot(browser)
+
+# Compute snapshot fingerprints (detect page changes)
+digests = compute_snapshot_digests(snap.elements)
+print(f"Strict digest: {digests['strict']}")  # Changes when text changes
+print(f"Loose digest: {digests['loose']}")   # Only changes when layout changes
+
+# Format snapshot for LLM prompts
+llm_context = format_snapshot_for_llm(snap, limit=50)
+print(llm_context)
+# Output: [1] <button> "Sign In" {PRIMARY,CLICKABLE} @ (100,50) (Imp:10)
+```
