-## [v3.6.2] - 2026-04-12
-
-### Fixed
-
-- GraphQL error responses now correctly return 400 status instead of always 200
-- OpenAPI docs UI now respects custom `openapi_route` instead of hardcoding `/schema.yml`
-- `before_requests` default type mismatch that could crash routes called outside the router
-- Blocking synchronous file I/O in `Response.stream_file()` — now uses async I/O via anyio
-- Memory leak in rate limiter (empty bucket keys never cleaned up)
-- Race condition in rate limiter `check()` — added thread-safe locking
-- WSGI fallback catching all `TypeError`s instead of just call-signature mismatches
-- Pydantic request/response model validation crashing on non-dict bodies
-- Test assertions that could never fail (`or True`, `< 500` patterns)
-- `CaseInsensitiveDict` missing `__delitem__`, `pop`, and `setdefault` overrides
-- `assert` used for input validation in OpenAPI extension (stripped by `python -O`)
-- Potential XSS in GraphiQL template endpoint injection
-- Dead `or ""` in media format detection logic
-
-### Changed
-
-- `DELETE` requests now participate in Pydantic request body validation
-- Simplified status code category check to use chained comparison
-
-### Removed
-
-- Unused `method` parameter from `load_target()`
-- Unused Node.js setup step from CI test workflow
-
-## [v3.6.1] - 2026-04-12
-
-### Added
-
-- Configurable GZip compression via `gzip` parameter on `API()` (defaults to `True`)
-
 ## [v3.6.0] - 2026-03-24
 
 ### Added
