 # Release History
 
+## 1.2.0-beta.2 (Unreleased)
+
+### Bugs Fixed
+
+- Filtered service-emitted `LLMStats:` telemetry entries from the rendered `rai_warnings` front matter.
+
+### Other Changes
+
+- Updated `toLlmInput` page markers from `<!-- page N -->` to `<!-- InputPageNumber: N -->` and avoided duplicate marker injection when the service markdown already includes `InputPageNumber` markers.
+
 ## 1.2.0-beta.1 (2026-04-30)
