Loop Client Release Notes

This file tracks release notes for the loop client.

When new features are added to the repo, a short description of the feature should be added under the "Next Release" heading.
This should be done in the same PR as the change so that our release notes stay in sync!

All of the items under the "Next Release" heading should be included in the release notes.
As part of the PR that bumps the client version, cut everything below the 'Next Release' heading.
These notes can either be pasted in a temporary doc, or you can get them from the PR diff once it is merged.
The notes are just a guideline as to the changes that have been made since the last release, they can be updated.
Once the version bump PR is merged and tagged, add the release notes to the tag on GitHub.

Next release

The loop client now labels all its on-chain transactions to make them easily identifiable in lnd's listchaintxns output.

This release includes support for opt-in automatic dispatch of loop out swaps, based on the output of the Suggestions endpoint.
To enable the autolooper, the following command can be used: loop setparams --autoout=true --autobudget={budget in sats} --budgetstart={start time for budget}
Automatically dispatched swaps are identified in the output of the ListSwaps with the label [reserved]: autoloop-out.
If autoloop is not enabled, the client will log the actions that the autolooper would have taken if it was enabled, and the Suggestions endpoint can be used to view the exact set of swaps that the autolooper would make if enabled.
