# Loop Client Release Notes
This file tracks release notes for the loop client.
### Developers:
* When new features are added to the repo, a short description of the feature should be added under the "Next Release" heading.
* This should be done in the same PR as the change so that our release notes stay in sync!
### Release Manager:
* All of the items under the "Next Release" heading should be included in the release notes.
* As part of the PR that bumps the client version, cut everything below the 'Next Release' heading.
* These notes can either be pasted in a temporary doc, or you can get them from the PR diff once it is merged.
* The notes are just a guideline as to the changes that have been made since the last release, they can be updated.
* Once the version bump PR is merged and tagged, add the release notes to the tag on GitHub.
## Next release
- Fixed compile time compatibility with `lnd v0.12.0-beta`.
#### New Features
* If lnd is locked when the loop client starts up, it will wait for lnd to be
unlocked. Previous versions would exit with an error.
* Loop will no longer need all `lnd` subserver macaroons to be present in the
`--lnd.macaroondir`. Instead the new `--lnd.macaroonpath` option can be
pointed to a single macaroon, for example the `admin.macaroon` or a custom
baked one with the exact permissions needed for Loop. If the now deprecated
flag/option `--lnd.macaroondir` is used, it will fall back to use only the
`admin.macaroon` from that directory.
* The rules used for autoloop have been relaxed to allow autoloop to dispatch
swaps even if there are manually initiated swaps that are not limited to a
single channel in progress. This change was made to allow autoloop to coexist
with manual swaps.
* The `SuggestSwaps` endpoint has been updated to include reasons that indicate
why the Autolooper is not currently dispatching swaps for the set of rules
that the client is configured with. See the [autoloop documentation](docs/autoloop.md) for a
detailed explanations of these reasons.
#### Breaking Changes
* The `AutoOut`, `AutoOutBudgetSat` and `AutoOutBudgetStartSec` fields in the
`LiquidityParameters` message used in the experimental autoloop API have
been renamed to `Autoloop`, `AutoloopBudgetSat` and `AutoloopBudgetStartSec`.
* The `autoout` flag for enabling automatic dispatch of loop out swaps has been
renamed to `autoloop` so that it can cover loop out and loop in.
* The `SuggestSwaps` rpc call will now fail with a `FailedPrecondition` grpc
error code if no rules are configured for the autolooper. Previously the rpc
would return an empty response.
