+## v3.2.0 {date="2025-06-25"}
+**Core**: revision 1ca3168bee
+
+**Enterprise**: revision 1ca3168bee
+
+### Core
+
+#### Features
+
+- **Hard delete for databases and tables**: Permanently delete databases and tables, enabling complete removal of data structures for compliance and storage management ([#26553](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26553))
+- **AWS credentials auto-reload**: Support dynamic reloading of ephemeral AWS credentials from files, improving security and reliability when using AWS services ([#26537](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26537))
+- **Database retention period support**: Add retention period support for databases via CLI commands (`create database` and `update database` commands) and HTTP APIs ([#26520](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26520))
+- **Configurable lookback duration**: Users can specify lookback duration for PersistedFiles buffer, providing better control over query performance ([#26528](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26528))
+- **WAL replay concurrency control**: Add concurrency limits for WAL (Write-Ahead Log) replay to improve startup performance and resource management ([#26483](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26483))
+- **Enhanced write path**: Separate write path executor with unbounded memory for improved write performance ([#26455](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26455))
+
+#### Bug Fixes
+
+- **WAL corruption handling**: Handle corrupt WAL files during replay without panic, improving data recovery and system resilience ([#26556](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26556))
+- **Database naming validation**: Disallow underscores in database names when created via API to ensure consistency ([#26507](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26507))
+- **Object store cleanup**: Automatic intermediate directory cleanup for file object store, preventing storage bloat ([#26480](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26480))
+
+#### Additional Updates
+
+- Track generation 1 duration in catalog for better performance monitoring ([#26508](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26508))
+- Add retention period support to the catalog ([#26479](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26479))
+- Update help text for improved user experience ([#26509](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/pull/26509))
+
+### Enterprise
+
+All Core updates are included in Enterprise. Additional Enterprise-specific features and fixes:
+
+#### Features
+
+- **License management improvements**: 
+  - New `influxdb3 show license` command to display current license information
+- **Table-level retention period support**: Add retention period support for individual tables in addition to database-level retention, providing granular data lifecycle management
+  - New CLI commands: `create table --retention-period` and `update table --retention-period`
+  - Set or clear table-specific retention policies independent of database settings
+- **Compaction improvements**:
+  - Address compactor restart issues for better reliability
+  - Track compacted generation durations in catalog for monitoring
+  - Disable parquet cache for ingest mode to optimize memory usage
+
+#### Bug Fixes
+
+- **Query optimization**: Correctly partition query chunks into generations for improved performance
+- **Data integrity**: Don't delete generation 1 files as part of compaction process
+- **License handling**: Trim whitespace from license file contents after reading to prevent validation issues
+

Subject: [PATCH 4/5] feat: add documentation planning structure and CLI sync
 plan
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Create structured approach for managing recurring documentation tasks:

Benefits:
- Claude can easily reference plans via @plans/[task]/plan-[version].md
- Version-controlled plans alongside code for iteration tracking
- Progress tracking with execution logs for lessons learned
- Reusable templates for recurring documentation patterns
- Organized structure for multiple concurrent documentation tasks

Usage Examples:
- "Claude, execute Phase 1 of @plans/cli-docs-sync/plan-v3.2.0.md"
- "Claude, create plan-v3.3.0.md based on previous plan and new release notes"
- Create similar structures for other recurring documentation tasks

Includes comprehensive CLI documentation sync plan for v3.2.0 with:
- Analysis of existing CLI docs and v3.2.0 changes
- Specific file paths for updates (retention periods, license management)
- Automation strategy for future releases
- Phase-based execution approach

+# Documentation Plans
+
+This directory contains plans for recurring documentation tasks and automation.
+
+## Active Plans
+
+### CLI Documentation Synchronization
+- **Location**: `cli-docs-sync/`
+- **Purpose**: Keep InfluxDB 3 CLI reference documentation in sync with actual CLI commands
+- **Current Version**: `plan-v3.2.0.md`
+- **Status**: Ready for execution
+
+### Release Notes Automation
+- **Location**: `release-notes-automation/`
+- **Purpose**: Automate generation of release notes from git commits
+- **Scripts**: Available in `/scripts/generate-release-notes.sh`
+
+## Plan Structure
+
+Each plan directory should contain:
+- `plan-[version].md` - The detailed plan
+- `execution-log.md` - Track progress and notes
+- `templates/` - Reusable templates and patterns
+
+## Usage for Claude
+
+When working with Claude on these plans:
+1. Reference the specific plan file: `@plans/[task]/plan-[version].md`
+2. Update execution logs as you progress
+3. Iterate on plans by creating new versions
+4. Use templates for consistency
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Keep plans versioned by release or iteration
+- Document lessons learned in execution logs
+- Create reusable templates for recurring patterns
+- Link plans to related scripts and automation

+# CLI Documentation Sync - Execution Log
+
+## v3.2.0 Execution
+
+### Status: Planning Complete ✅
+**Date**: 2025-06-26
+**Plan**: `plan-v3.2.0.md`
+
+### Phase 1: Analysis (Not Started)
+- [ ] Audit existing CLI documentation structure
+- [ ] Extract v3.2.0 changes from release notes
+- [ ] Generate current CLI help output
+
+### Phase 2: Update Documentation (Not Started)
+#### Files to Create:
+- [ ] `/content/shared/influxdb3-cli/update/_index.md`
+- [ ] `/content/shared/influxdb3-cli/update/database.md`
+- [ ] `/content/shared/influxdb3-cli/update/table.md` (Enterprise)
+- [ ] `/content/shared/influxdb3-cli/show/license.md` (Enterprise)
+
+#### Files to Update:
+- [ ] `/content/shared/influxdb3-cli/create/database.md` (add `--retention-period`)
+- [ ] `/content/shared/influxdb3-cli/create/table.md` (add Enterprise `--retention-period`)
+- [ ] `/content/shared/influxdb3-cli/show/_index.md` (add license command)
+- [ ] `/content/shared/influxdb3-cli/delete/database.md` (review hard delete)
+- [ ] `/content/shared/influxdb3-cli/delete/table.md` (review hard delete)
+
+### Phase 3: Automation (Not Started)
+- [ ] Create CLI documentation sync script
+- [ ] Establish documentation standards
+- [ ] Plan CI/CD integration
+
+### Phase 4: Validation (Not Started)
+- [ ] Test documented commands
+- [ ] Verify completeness
+- [ ] Check cross-references
+
+### Notes and Lessons Learned
+- Release notes analysis was crucial for identifying specific CLI changes
+- Having automation scripts in place (`generate-release-notes.sh`) helped identify features
+- Need to distinguish between Core and Enterprise features clearly
+
+### Next Actions
+When ready to execute:
+1. Reference plan: `@plans/cli-docs-sync/plan-v3.2.0.md`
+2. Start with Phase 1 analysis
+3. Update this log as progress is made

+   ```bash
+   # Script: /Users/ja/Documents/github/docs-v2/scripts/sync-cli-docs.sh
+   # - Extract help text from influxdb3 CLI
+   # - Compare with existing docs
+   # - Generate report of differences
+   # - Auto-update basic command syntax
+   ```
+
+2. **Establish documentation standards:**
+   - Standardize frontmatter across CLI docs
+   - Create templates for command documentation
+   - Define Enterprise vs Core content patterns using Hugo shortcodes
+
+### Long-term Automation Strategy:
+1. **CI/CD Integration:**
+   - Add GitHub Actions workflow to detect CLI changes
+   - Auto-generate CLI help extraction on new releases
+   - Create pull requests for documentation updates
+
+2. **Release Process Integration:**
+   - Include CLI documentation review in release checklist
+   - Link release notes to specific CLI documentation updates
+   - Automated cross-referencing between release notes and CLI docs
+
+3. **Content Management Improvements:**
+   - Use Hugo shortcodes for Enterprise-specific content
+   - Implement version-aware documentation
+   - Create shared content templates for common CLI patterns
+
+## Phase 4: Validation and Testing
+
+### Content accuracy verification:
+- Test all documented commands and options against actual CLIs
+- Verify Enterprise vs Core feature availability
+- Cross-reference with actual CLI behavior
+
+### Documentation completeness check:
+- Ensure all v3.2.0 features are documented
+- Verify examples and use cases
+- Check internal links and cross-references
+
+## Suggested Recurring Process
+
+### Pre-release (during development):
+- Monitor CLI changes in pull requests
+- Update documentation as features are added
+- Maintain CLI help extraction automation
+
+### At release (when tagging versions):
+- Run automated CLI documentation sync
+- Review and approve auto-generated updates
+- Publish updated documentation
+
+### Post-release (after release):
+- Validate documentation accuracy
+- Gather user feedback on CLI documentation
+- Plan improvements for next cycle
+
+## Related Documentation Paths
+
+### InfluxDB 3 Product Documentation (affects CLI usage examples):
+- `/content/influxdb3/core/write-data/influxdb3-cli.md`
+- `/content/influxdb3/enterprise/write-data/influxdb3-cli.md`
+- `/content/shared/influxdb3-write-guides/influxdb3-cli.md`
+
+### Admin Documentation (affects retention and license features):
+- `/content/influxdb3/core/admin/`
+- `/content/influxdb3/enterprise/admin/`
+- `/content/influxdb3/enterprise/admin/license.md`
+
+This plan ensures comprehensive documentation updates for v3.2.0 while establishing sustainable processes for future releases.
