 # Notes: Creates persistent notifications and stamps last-update time.
 # Notes: Fires update events independently when a report has both Available and Updated sections.
 # Notes: Fires `tugtainer_home_assistant_core_updated` when `### Updated:` includes Home Assistant.
-# Notes: Failed or rolled-back reports dispatch Joanna immediately, outside the Available-report cooldown.
+# Notes: Every Available report dispatches Joanna; Tugtainer owns report scheduling and de-duplication.
 # Notes: Home Assistant changelog dispatch uses core-YYYY.M URL format from parsed/fallback version.
-# Notes: Joanna dispatch cooldown uses mode=single with a 24-hour delay lockout.
-# Notes: Available reports must not auto-update Home Assistant; HA core updates require explicit approval, config check, and a maintenance window.
+# Notes: Home Assistant is auto-update eligible after its Tugtainer pre-update config check; no per-release approval is required.
+# Notes: Portainer image-update entities are auto-disabled because Tugtainer/Compose own container rollouts.
