debug: enhance diagnostic logging to detect args field in tool_calls

Added more detailed logging to identify if DeepSeek responses include
both 'function.arguments' and 'args' fields, or if tool_calls are
objects vs dicts, to understand why parse_tool_call isn't converting
string args to dict as expected.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
-## [0.4.0] - 2025-11-04
+### Fixed
+- Fixed Pydantic validation errors when using DeepSeek models via OpenRouter
+- Root cause: DeepSeek returns tool_calls in non-standard format with `args` field directly, bypassing LangChain's `parse_tool_call()`
+- Solution: Added `ToolCallArgsParsingWrapper` that normalizes non-standard tool_call format to OpenAI standard before LangChain processing
+- Wrapper converts `{name, args, id}` → `{function: {name, arguments}, id}` format
+- Includes diagnostic logging to identify format inconsistencies across providers
+
+## [0.4.1] - 2025-11-06
+
+### Fixed
+- Fixed "No trading" message always displaying despite trading activity by initializing `IF_TRADE` to `True` (trades expected by default)
+- Root cause: `IF_TRADE` was initialized to `False` in runtime config but never updated when trades executed
+
+### Note
+- ChatDeepSeek integration was reverted as it conflicts with OpenRouter unified gateway architecture
+- System uses `OPENAI_API_BASE` (OpenRouter) with single `OPENAI_API_KEY` for all providers
+- Sporadic DeepSeek validation errors appear to be transient and do not require code changes

 ### BREAKING CHANGES
 
@@ -130,6 +148,49 @@ New `/results?reasoning=full` returns:
 - Test coverage increased with 36+ new comprehensive tests
 - Documentation updated with complete API reference and database schema details
 
+### Fixed
+- **Critical:** Intra-day position tracking for sell-then-buy trades (e20dce7)
+  - Sell proceeds now immediately available for subsequent buy orders within same trading session

+- **Critical:** Tool message extraction in conversation history (462de3a, abb9cd0)
+  - Fixed bug where tool messages (buy/sell trades) were not captured when agent completed in single step
+  - Tool extraction now happens BEFORE finish signal check
+  - Reasoning summaries now accurately reflect actual trades executed
+  - Resolves issue where summarizer saw 0 tools despite multiple trades
+- Reasoning summary generation improvements (6d126db)

+  - Added TRADES EXECUTED section highlighting tool calls
+  - Example: 'sold 1 GOOGL and 1 AMZN to reduce exposure' instead of 'maintain core holdings'
+- Final holdings calculation accuracy (a8d912b)
+  - Final positions now calculated from actions instead of querying incomplete database records
+  - Correctly handles first trading day with multiple trades
+  - New `_calculate_final_position_from_actions()` method applies all trades to calculate final state
+  - Holdings now persist correctly across all trading days
+  - Added 3 comprehensive tests for final position calculation
+- Holdings persistence between trading days (aa16480)
+  - Query now retrieves previous day's ending position as current day's starting position
+  - Changed query from `date <=` to `date <` to prevent returning incomplete current-day records
+  - Fixes empty starting_position/final_position in API responses despite successful trades
+  - Updated tests to verify correct previous-day retrieval
+- Context injector trading_day_id synchronization (05620fa)
+  - ContextInjector now updated with trading_day_id after record creation
+  - Fixes "Trade failed: trading_day_id not found in runtime config" error
+  - MCP tools now correctly receive trading_day_id via context injection
+- Schema migration compatibility fixes (7c71a04)
+  - Updated position queries to use new trading_days schema instead of obsolete positions table
+  - Removed obsolete add_no_trade_record_to_db function calls
+  - Fixes "no such table: positions" error
+  - Simplified _handle_trading_result logic
+- Database referential integrity (9da65c2)
+  - Corrected Database default path from "data/trading.db" to "data/jobs.db"
+  - Ensures all components use same database file
+  - Fixes FOREIGN KEY constraint failures when creating trading_day records
+- Debug logging cleanup (1e7bdb5)
+  - Removed verbose debug logging from ContextInjector for cleaner output

 ## Release Planning
 
+### v0.5.0 - Performance Metrics & Status APIs (Planned)
+
+**Focus:** Enhanced observability and performance tracking
+
+#### Performance Metrics API
+- **Performance Summary Endpoint** - Query model performance over date ranges
+  - `GET /metrics/performance` - Aggregated performance metrics
+    - Query parameters: `model`, `start_date`, `end_date`
+    - Returns comprehensive performance summary:
+      - Total return (dollar amount and percentage)
+      - Number of trades executed (buy + sell)
+      - Win rate (profitable trading days / total trading days)
+      - Average daily P&L (profit and loss)
+      - Best/worst trading day (highest/lowest daily P&L)
+      - Final portfolio value (cash + holdings at market value)
+      - Number of trading days in queried range
+      - Starting vs. ending portfolio comparison
+    - Use cases:
+      - Compare model performance across different time periods
+      - Evaluate strategy effectiveness
+      - Identify top-performing models
+    - Example: `GET /metrics/performance?model=gpt-4&start_date=2025-01-01&end_date=2025-01-31`
+  - Filtering options:
+    - Single model or all models
+    - Custom date ranges
+    - Exclude incomplete trading days
+  - Response format: JSON with clear metric definitions
+
+#### Status & Coverage Endpoint
+- **System Status Summary** - Data availability and simulation progress
+  - `GET /status` - Comprehensive system status
+    - Price data coverage section:
+      - Available symbols (NASDAQ 100 constituents)
+      - Date range of downloaded price data per symbol
+      - Total trading days with complete data
+      - Missing data gaps (symbols without data, date gaps)
+      - Last data refresh timestamp
+    - Model simulation status section:
+      - List of all configured models (enabled/disabled)
+      - Date ranges simulated per model (first and last trading day)
+      - Total trading days completed per model
+      - Most recent simulation date per model
+      - Completion percentage (simulated days / available data days)
+    - System health section:
+      - Database connectivity status
+      - MCP services status (Math, Search, Trade, LocalPrices)
+      - API version and deployment mode
+      - Disk space usage (database size, log size)
+    - Use cases:
+      - Verify data availability before triggering simulations
+      - Identify which models need updates to latest data
+      - Monitor system health and readiness
+      - Plan data downloads for missing date ranges
+    - Example: `GET /status` (no parameters required)
+  - Benefits:
+    - Single endpoint for complete system overview
+    - No need to query multiple endpoints for status
+    - Clear visibility into data gaps
+    - Track simulation progress across models
+
+#### Implementation Details
+- Database queries for efficient metric calculation
+- Caching for frequently accessed metrics (optional)
+- Response time target: <500ms for typical queries
+- Comprehensive error handling for missing data
+
+#### Benefits
+- **Better Observability** - Clear view of system state and model performance
+- **Data-Driven Decisions** - Quantitative metrics for model comparison
+- **Proactive Monitoring** - Identify data gaps before simulations fail
+- **User Experience** - Single endpoint to check "what's available and what's been done"
