-        "release_notes": "This version adds Forward Art (run_forward_art): later US patents and publications, filed after a patent's priority date, whose claims or description describe that patent's claimed elements, returned as assertion and licensing leads for attorney review, never as a validity finding. Like the other analyses it is two calls: the first returns the claims, the search window (priority date to the estimated expiry, which the user can change) and the credit cost and starts nothing; a run starts only after the user confirms. get_research_run returns Forward Art results with quoted evidence per claim element. get_family marks US family members with their USPTO status. European coverage grows: get_legal_activity and get_patent_record read EP legal events, oppositions and the EPO Register, and search_litigation and get_opinion cover EPO Boards of Appeal decisions. find_similar_patents groups results by family and owner. All changes are additive."
+        "release_notes": "This version updates structure search coverage and makes several answers clearer. search_structures now covers European patent drawings published from 2025 onward, read by Patent Bear's own optical structure recognition and updated weekly; its description states the new coverage, and hits from those drawings are marked ocr_drawing so the user can confirm them against the drawing. Exact-mode structure searches now return only the identical compound. get_legal_activity adds an opposition status for European patents. get_file_history labels every document with a plain category and adds a one-line summary of the whole file history. When get_family cannot find a worldwide family, it now says how current Patent Bear's family data is instead of returning an error. No tools were added or removed, no arguments changed, and every tool keeps its existing annotations and scopes."
