 All notable changes to Void 2.0 are documented here.
 Format: [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com).
 
+## 2.0.0-alpha.17 — Settings, project management, terminal, AI Usage, "The Void" space + UI polish
+- **Settings** (`#/settings`): API tokens (mint/list/revoke), Agents list with an expandable **profile viewer** (persona/"soul" + capabilities/scopes via `GET /api/agents/:id/profile`), Orthos Mode placeholder.
+- **Per-space project management**: Void-1-style expandable cards with inline **status**, **Details**, **Tasks**, **Linked references**, **↻ Research** (Eithan stub → `POST /api/projects/:id/research`), Edit/New modal, Delete-with-confirm. Migration 019 adds research fields; `GET /api/projects/:id/links` resolves linked pages/refs.
+- **Terminal tab** (`#/terminal`): embedded blackflame `ttyd` → persistent `tmux`/`claude` on CT 300; works via Traefik (CF-Access) **and** the LAN IP (app proxies `/terminal` + its WebSocket to ttyd).
+- **AI Usage** Sacred Valley card + `GET /api/ai-usage` — summarises the Homelab Monitor (Claude tokens + local OpenClaw/Ollama p50/p95).
+- **"The Void" space**: Void 1.x / Void 2.0 / Void 3.0 as projects (tasks + linked references), charting the project's evolution.
+- **Migration**: BookStack re-imported with Book › Chapter › Page hierarchy; Void 1 project `research_notes` backfilled.
+- **UI**: page header actions (Edit/Revisions/Export), breadcrumbs, themed markdown tables, `Cache-Control: no-cache`, live sidebar active-sync, **hybrid sidebar** (Spaces/Agents/Navigate + active pill + agent dots), themed scrollbars + topbar, **+1 font bump**, Sentinel → **Yerin** (red).
+
 ## 2.0.0-alpha.16 — Little Blue + action framework (Agent Layer brick 2)
 - **Little Blue**, the caretaker fix-it agent, is online at `#/little-blue`: chat + a manual Actions panel. She can **restart whitelisted services** and **power-manage Proxmox guests** — `safe` actions run on her word, `risky` ones queue for your approval.
 - **Least-privilege action framework:** a version-controlled whitelist (`config/actions.json`), two server-side-enforced channels (scoped **Proxmox API token** + **SSH forced-command wrapper**), tiered approval, and a full `agent_actions` audit trail. Infra creds live ONLY in the main server; Little Blue's MCP child proposes actions via the local API with a scoped token — it can only name a whitelisted id, never a command.
