 ### Added
 
+- **`advanced_scenarios` benchmark suite** — Tenant resolver overhead (header,
+  bearer, path segment extraction); agent card hot-reload (read, update, complex
+  card swap); `/.well-known/agent.json` discovery endpoint latency; subscribe
+  fan-out (1–10 concurrent subscribers); streaming artifact accumulation cost
+  (`task.clone()` at 0–500 artifact depth); pagination full walk (100–1K tasks,
+  unfiltered + context-filtered); extended agent card round-trip.
 - **`production_scenarios` benchmark suite** — SubscribeToTask reconnection,
   cold start vs steady-state, concurrent cancel+subscribe race, 7-step E2E
   orchestration, push config CRUD round-trip, parallel agent burst (10-100
   agents), dispatch routing isolation.
 - **Timer calibration benchmark** — Measures actual `tokio::time::sleep()`
   duration to isolate CI timer jitter from real SDK overhead.
+- **`NoopPushSender`** for benchmarks that require push notification support
+  without performing actual HTTP webhook delivery.
+- **`start_jsonrpc_server_with_push()`** helper for benchmark servers with push
+  notification capabilities enabled.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **`MultiEventExecutor` invalid state transitions** — Was emitting
+  `Working → Working` status events in a loop, violating the A2A spec state
+  machine. Now emits `Working` once, then N artifact events, then `Completed`.
+- **`production_scenarios` push config benchmark** — Was using a server without
+  push notification support, causing `PushNotificationNotSupported` errors.
+- **`InMemoryTaskStore::insert()` unnecessary index operations** — Update path
+  now skips BTreeSet and context index operations when the task already exists
+  with the same context_id, eliminating variance from occasional BTreeSet node
+  splits and reducing update cost from ~2.5µs to ~700ns.
+- **Criterion `measurement_time` warnings** — Added `measurement_time` to 23+
+  benchmark groups across 8 files, eliminating all 15 warnings and preventing
+  23 borderline cases from triggering on CI runners.

+//! ## What this measures
+//!
+//! - **Tenant resolver overhead**: Per-request cost of `HeaderTenantResolver`,
+//!   `BearerTokenTenantResolver`, and `PathSegmentTenantResolver` extraction.
+//! - **Agent card discovery**: `/.well-known/agent.json` endpoint latency and

+//! - **Subscribe fan-out**: Multiple concurrent subscribers draining events from

+//! - **Streaming artifact accumulation**: Per-event `task.clone()` cost as the
+//!   background processor accumulates artifacts — the 90µs/event frontier.

 ### Performance
 
 - **`InMemoryTaskStore::list()` — O(n log n) → O(log n + page_size)** — Added `BTreeSet<TaskId>` sorted index and `HashMap<String, BTreeSet<TaskId>>` context index. Eliminates the per-call sort that caused 20-70× regressions at 10K+ tasks.
+- **`InMemoryTaskStore::insert()` — Update fast path** — Skips BTreeSet and context index operations when updating an existing task with unchanged context_id. Reduces save() from ~2.5µs to ~700ns for the common update case.
 - **SSE per-event serialization — 2 allocations → 1** — `build_sse_message_frame()` serializes JSON directly into the SSE frame buffer via `serde_json::to_writer`, skipping the intermediate `serde_json::to_string()` allocation.
 - **`Part` deserialization — ~80 fewer allocations per Task** — Replaced `#[serde(flatten)]` with a hand-rolled `Deserialize` implementation that reads all fields in a single pass without intermediate `serde_json::Value` buffering.
 
 ### Benchmarks
 
+- **New: `advanced_scenarios` suite** — Tenant resolver overhead (header, bearer, path), agent card hot-reload and discovery endpoint, subscribe fan-out (1-10 concurrent subscribers), streaming artifact accumulation cost (task.clone() at 0-500 depth), pagination full walk (100-1K tasks), extended agent card round-trip.
 - **New: `production_scenarios` suite** — SubscribeToTask reconnection, cold start vs steady-state, concurrent cancel+subscribe race, 7-step E2E orchestration, push config CRUD round-trip, parallel agent burst (10-100 agents), dispatch routing isolation.
+- **Fixed: `MultiEventExecutor`** — Was emitting invalid `Working → Working` state transitions; now emits `Working` once, then N artifacts, then `Completed`.
+- **Fixed: `InMemoryTaskStore::insert()`** — Optimized update path skips redundant BTreeSet/context index operations, reducing save() variance from [1.5µs, 4.2µs] to ~700ns.
+- **Fixed: Criterion measurement_time warnings** — Added measurement_time to 23+ groups across 8 files.
 - **Improved: `data_volume` get benchmark** — Uses 64 pseudo-random keys instead of single midpoint to avoid HashMap bucket anomalies.
-- **Improved: `backpressure` stream volume** — Added 501 and 1001 event counts to push per-event signal above CI noise floor; added timer calibration benchmarks.
