+## v5.0_beta6 (06-01-2025)
+- Bundled an internal Meilisearch service and configure Monica to use it for full-text search by default.
+- Ensure the init script only launches the bundled Meilisearch when `MEILISEARCH_URL` points to localhost and wait for the health endpoint before starting Monica.
+
 ## v5.0_beta5 (14-11-2025)
 - Added support for configuring extra environment variables via the `env_vars` add-on option alongside config.yaml. See https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons/wiki/Add-Environment-variables-to-your-Addon-2 for details.

 This addon supports custom scripts and environment variables through the `addon_config` mapping:
 
+- **Meilisearch full-text search**: The addon ships with an embedded [Meilisearch](https://www.meilisearch.com/) service that Monica uses by default. The search API listens on `http://127.0.0.1:7700` inside the container. Override `MEILISEARCH_URL` via `env_vars` if you prefer an external Meilisearch instance—the init script will detect that and skip starting the bundled daemon. You can further tweak Meilisearch by defining extra environment variables through the `env_vars` option if needed.
 - **Custom scripts**: See [Running Custom Scripts in Addons](https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons/wiki/Running-custom-scripts-in-Addons)
 - **env_vars option**: Use the add-on `env_vars` option to pass extra environment variables (uppercase or lowercase names). See https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons/wiki/Add-Environment-variables-to-your-Addon-2 for details.
