 - Reframed the project as a fresh TypeScript-native KeePass library.
 - Python/pykeepass is now only a compatibility reference during development.
-- Added initial KDBX format scaffolding and crypto helpers.
+- Added KDBX header parsing for known fields and basic buffer guards.
-- The current runtime is still mostly in-memory and does not yet decrypt real databases.
+- Added initial password/key-file secret handling and master-key derivation helpers.
+- The current runtime still does not decrypt or parse real KeePass databases end-to-end.
