 The pivot table chart's `First` and `Last` aggregations now return the first and last value in data (query result) order, instead of effectively returning the minimum and maximum. Existing pivot tables that use these aggregations for totals/subtotals may show different values after upgrading. For deterministic results, ensure the underlying query has a stable sort order.
 
+### `FetchRetryOptions` callback parameters widened to allow `null`
+
+The `error` and `response` parameters of the `retryDelay` and `retryOn` callbacks in `FetchRetryOptions` (exported from `@superset-ui/core`) are now typed `Error | null` and `Response | null` to match the actual call-site signature provided by `fetch-retry`. Because these parameter types are contravariant, consumers who typed their callbacks with the non-nullable `(attempt: number, error: Error, response: Response) => number` will get a TypeScript compile error. Widen your callback signatures to accept `Error | null` / `Response | null`.

+### SMTP server certificate validation enabled by default
+
+`SMTP_SSL_SERVER_AUTH` now defaults to `True` (previously `False`). With this default, STARTTLS/SSL connections to the configured SMTP server validate the server's TLS certificate against the system trusted CA store. This makes outbound email (alerts and reports) verify the mail server's identity out of the box.
+
+If your SMTP server presents a self-signed certificate, or a certificate that is not trusted by the system CA store, email delivery may now fail with a certificate verification error. To restore the previous behavior of skipping certificate validation, set the following in `superset_config.py`:
+
+```python
+SMTP_SSL_SERVER_AUTH = False
+```
+
+The recommended fix is to add the SMTP server's certificate (or its issuing CA) to the system trust store rather than disabling validation.

 ### Dataset import validates catalog against the target connection
 
 Importing a dataset now validates the `catalog` field against the target database connection. When the connection has multi-catalog disabled (`allow_multi_catalog` off) and the dataset's catalog is not the connection's default catalog, the import fails instead of silently persisting the non-default catalog. This matches the validation already enforced on the dataset update path and prevents imported datasets from querying an unintended database.

 Adjust `retention_period_days` to control how long query rows are kept. Companion opt-in tasks (`prune_logs`, `prune_tasks`) exist for pruning the logs and tasks tables; see the commented-out examples in `superset/config.py`. Without enabling these tasks, the metadata database will grow unbounded over time.
 
+## Dashboard Layout Size Limit
+
+Each dashboard stores its layout (the position, size, and nesting of every chart, row, and tab) as a JSON blob in the metadata database. Superset caps the length of this serialized blob with `SUPERSET_DASHBOARD_POSITION_DATA_LIMIT`, which defaults to `65535`:
+
+```python
+SUPERSET_DASHBOARD_POSITION_DATA_LIMIT = 65535
+```
+
+This is a Python-level cap (65535 is 2¹⁶ − 1), independent of the database column capacity — the `position_json` column is a `MEDIUMTEXT`, which holds far more. When the serialized layout reaches this limit, the editor blocks the save and reports the current length, the limit, and this setting's name. A warning is shown once the layout passes 90% of the limit.
+
+Large dashboards — for example, many charts spread across nested tabs — can exceed the default. Because the underlying column comfortably stores larger values, you can safely raise the limit:
+
+```python
+SUPERSET_DASHBOARD_POSITION_DATA_LIMIT = 131072  # double the default
+```
+
+Alternatively, split a very large dashboard into several smaller ones. Note that this check is enforced when saving layout edits in the UI; a dashboard imported from a ZIP with an oversized layout will load and render, but cannot be edited and re-saved until the limit is raised.

 What counts as a regression
 ---------------------------
-A regression is an *existing translation that a source change invalidated*.
-The check keys on the **increase in fuzzy entries** rather than a drop in the
-translated count, because a count drop happens identically for a benign
-*deletion* and a real *rename*, so it cannot distinguish the two — whereas a
-``#, fuzzy`` marker unambiguously flags a stranded translation.
+A regression is an *existing translation that a source change invalidated*:
+a message that was a **confirmed, non-fuzzy translation** in the baseline and
+is **fuzzy** after the PR. The check keys on this per-``msgid`` transition
+rather than on the aggregate count of fuzzy entries, because a bare count
+cannot tell apart two changes that move the fuzzy total by the same amount:
+
+* ``translated -> fuzzy`` — a reworded source string stranded a real
+  translation. **This is the regression.**
+* ``untranslated -> fuzzy`` — an empty ``msgstr`` was filled with a fuzzy
+  (unconfirmed) guess, e.g. an AI backfill committed as ``#, fuzzy``. No
+  existing translation was lost, so this is **not** a regression and must
+  pass.
+
+Keying on the per-entry transition lets a backfill PR commit fuzzy guesses for
+previously-untranslated strings (the ja/fi catalog backfills) without tripping
+the check, while still catching a genuine invalidation even when the same PR
+also adds new strings (which a count-delta heuristic would let mask it).
 
 Note ``babel_update.sh`` runs ``pybabel update`` with ``--no-fuzzy-matching``,
 so *adding* (or renaming) a source string does **not** auto-generate a fuzzy
 guess against an unrelated existing translation — new strings land as cleanly
-untranslated (empty ``msgstr``). This deliberately avoids the prior behaviour
-where *every* PR that merely added a translatable string tripped this check on
-spurious fuzzies. As a result the check now guards against ``#, fuzzy`` entries
-that arrive another way — e.g. a committed ``.po`` edit — rather than ones the
-update step synthesises. *Deleting* a string is still not a regression: with
-``--ignore-obsolete`` it is simply dropped and no fuzzy is created.

+MCP tool: remove_chart_from_dashboard
+
+This tool removes a chart from an existing dashboard. It is the inverse of
+add_chart_to_existing_dashboard: it deletes the chart's CHART component(s)
+from position_json (pruning ROW/COLUMN containers that become empty),
+removes the chart from the dashboard's slices relationship, and cleans
+stale references to the chart from json_metadata (expanded_slices,
+timed_refresh_immune_slices, filter_scopes, default_filters).

+Unit tests for the manage_native_filters MCP tool.
+
+Follows the pattern from test_add_chart_to_existing_dashboard.py:
+- Tests run through the async MCP Client (not direct function calls)
+- Patches applied at source locations (superset.daos.dashboard.*, etc.)
+- auth is mocked via the autouse mock_auth fixture
+
+Covers:
+- Adding a filter_select filter (full config shape, scope translation)
+- Adding a filter_time filter (with default time range)
+- Updating a filter (merge produces a FULL config, not a delta)
+- Update validation (duplicate update IDs, update+remove conflict)
+- Removing a filter
+- Reordering filters (including incomplete-reorder and duplicate-ID validation)
+- Invalid dataset / column errors
+- LLM-context sanitization of user-controlled filter names / targets
+- Delimiter-escaping of operational id / filter_type fields
+- Dashboard not found
+- Permission denied (DashboardForbiddenError)

+Unit tests for remove_chart_from_dashboard MCP tool.
+
+Follows the same pattern used in test_add_chart_to_existing_dashboard.py:
+- Tool flows run through the async MCP Client (not direct function calls)
+- Patches applied at source locations (superset.daos.dashboard.*, etc.)
+- auth is mocked via the autouse mock_auth fixture
+
+Covers:
+- Dashboard not found
+- Permission denied (user does not own the dashboard) -> permission_denied=True
+- Chart not present in the dashboard
+- Simple grid removal (chart directly inside a ROW) with empty-row pruning
+- Chart inside a COLUMN (sibling survives; lone chart prunes COLUMN + ROW)
+- Tabbed layout where the chart appears under multiple tabs
+- json_metadata cleanup (expanded_slices, timed_refresh_immune_slices,
+  filter_scopes, default_filters)
