+## 0.4.3
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **`database_url` set via Configure now reaches the bundle.** The manifest
+  was missing the `mcp_config.env` mapping that bridges the `user_config`
+  field to the `DATABASE_URL` env var the Python code reads. Setting the
+  URL via the UI was a silent no-op; only the host-env passthrough
+  (`allowedEnv: ["DATABASE_URL"]` + a process-env `DATABASE_URL`) worked.
+  Configure-UI is now the canonical path.
+
+### Changed (breaking for misconfigured installs)
+
+- **`database_url` is now `required: true` in `user_config`.** Existing
+  workspaces with the field unset will fail `prepareServer` at next spawn
+  with a clear "missing required configuration" error and the
+  `nb config set` hint. Operators who relied solely on the host-env
+  passthrough should now set the credential via Configure UI (or the
+  CLI). Workspaces that already have the credential saved are unaffected.
+
 ## 0.4.0
 
 ### Removed (breaking)
