 ## Unreleased
 
+### Customisation Sync
+
+#### Fixed
+
+- We can reload the customisation list and apply every file in a multi-file item on the first attempt. (#1271)
+    - Reloading or clearing the list also prevents earlier pending updates from restoring removed files and items.
+
+### Setup tools
+
+#### Fixed
+
+- We can generate a Setup URI with prefixed connection and encryption variables, avoiding collisions with shell or system variables such as `hostname` and `USERNAME`. (#817, #1274)
+    - The generator reads `LIVESYNC_HOST`, `LIVESYNC_USER`, `LIVESYNC_PASS`, `LIVESYNC_DB`, and `LIVESYNC_PASSPHRASE`. The previous names remain supported when the corresponding prefixed value is unset or blank.
+
 ### Synchronisation
 
+#### New Feature
+
 - We can see CouchDB change-history comparison progressing before new documents arrive, with a ⏩ status icon and a comparison count before the upload count. An unchanged count disappears after three seconds.
 - We can hide or style individual status items with CSS snippets using the `livesync-stat-` classes. Tabular, right-aligned numbers retain their width while visible, reducing movement as counts change. Wider gaps between editor status items make the counts easier to read. The `livesync-stat-inactive` class lets CSS snippets control how inactive items disappear.
+- We can enable **Batch database updates in LiveSync mode** to combine repeated local edits before sending them to other devices.
+    - The choice starts disabled, including when older settings contain the previously ignored batch option. Each mode retains its own choice and uses the same minimum and maximum delays.
+    - Batching delays remote visibility and reduces intermediate updates. It does not establish when a template has finished or prevent genuine concurrent edits.
+
+#### Fixed
+
+- Local changes remain available for recovery while their database save is running, including when the application stops after a batch delay ends.
+    - Manual synchronisation and settings application now wait for the accepted local saves to finish and report failures. Pending events retain the existing snapshot format.
+    - Hidden File Sync and Customisation Sync now report completion after saving, including delayed customisation updates. Failed saves remain pending, while unchanged notifications allow later edits to proceed.
+- Start-up reconciliation checks content when modification times are equal, so an edit within the same timestamp interval is not mistaken for an unchanged file.
+    - Existing revision provenance preserves the correct edit branch. Unreadable or continually changing content remains unresolved rather than being reported as successfully reconciled.
+- We receive a clear Notice when **Automatic** requires Hidden File Sync to be enabled on this device. Our existing mode remains unchanged, and hidden-file initialisation cannot start while the feature is disabled. (#1270)
+- We can initialise a whole plug-in's **MAIN** and **DATA** selections using the chosen Automatic initial action.
 - We can run startup integrity checks with lower memory use for healthy Vault files. Files that change between the size check and content reading no longer trigger an unnecessary repair warning when their actual sizes agree and there are no conflicts. (#1283)
