 # Changelog
 
+## v4.17.0
+
+### Features
+
+#### CLI reset-password command
+
+This release adds a new `reset-password` command to the ChirpStack CLI. This
+command enables resetting user passwords without API access, which is useful for:
+
+- Initial setup of fresh installations
+- Automated deployment scripts
+- Recovery from forgotten passwords
+
+**Usage:**
+
+```bash
+# Interactive password reset
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack reset-password -e admin@example.com
+
+# Password from file
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack reset-password -e admin@example.com -p /tmp/pw.txt
+
+# Password from stdin (for scripting)
+echo "SecurePassword123" | chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack reset-password -e admin@example.com --stdin
+```
+
+See [CLI commands](./use/cli-commands.md) for more information.

+# Command-line interface
+
+ChirpStack provides a command-line interface (CLI) for tasks such as resetting
+user passwords, creating API keys, and managing device profiles. These commands
+are useful for automated deployments, scripting, and administration.
+
+## Usage
+
+The CLI is invoked using the `chirpstack` command:
+
+```bash
+chirpstack --config <DIRECTORY> <COMMAND> [OPTIONS]
+```
+
+Where `--config` points to the ChirpStack configuration directory (containing
+`chirpstack.toml` and region configuration files).
+
+## Available commands
+
+### reset-password
+
+Reset a user's password without API access. This command is useful for:
+
+- Initial setup of fresh installations
+- Automated deployment scripts
+- Recovery from forgotten passwords
+
+**Usage:**
+
+```bash
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack reset-password --email <EMAIL> [OPTIONS]
+```
+
+**Options:**
+
+| Option | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `-e, --email <EMAIL>` | User email address (required) |
+| `-p, --password-file <FILE>` | Path to file containing new password |
+| `--stdin` | Read password from stdin |
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Interactive password reset (prompts for password twice)
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack reset-password -e admin@example.com
+
+# Password from file
+echo "SecurePassword123" > /tmp/pw.txt
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack reset-password -e admin@example.com -p /tmp/pw.txt
+
+# Password from stdin (recommended for scripts)
+echo "SecurePassword123" | chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack reset-password -e admin@example.com --stdin
+```
+
+**Security notes:**
+
+- When using a file, ensure it has restrictive permissions (e.g., `chmod 600`)
+- Always delete password files after use
+- When using stdin, ensure the password is not logged in shell history
+
+**Password requirements:**
+
+- Minimum 8 characters
+- Maximum 128 characters
+- NIST 800-63b compliant (no arbitrary complexity requirements)
+
+### create-api-key
+
+Create a global API key for administrative access.
+
+**Usage:**
+
+```bash
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack create-api-key --name <NAME>
+```
+
+**Example:**
+
+```bash
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack create-api-key --name "automation-key"
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```bash
+id: <UUID>
+token: <JWT_TOKEN>
+```
+
+### configfile
+
+Print the configuration template to stdout.
+
+**Usage:**
+
+```bash
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack configfile
+```
+
+### import-device-profiles
+
+Import LoRaWAN device profiles from a directory.
+
+**Usage:**
+
+```bash
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack import-device-profiles <DIRECTORY>
+```
+
+### migrate-device-profile-templates
+
+Migrate device-profile templates to device profiles.
+
+**Usage:**
+
+```bash
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack migrate-device-profile-templates <DIRECTORY>
+```
+
+### print-ds
+
+Print the device-session for debugging (requires --dev-eui).
+
+**Usage:**
+
+```bash
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack print-ds --dev-eui <DEV_EUI>
+```
+
+## Security considerations
+
+### Password handling
+
+The CLI provides multiple methods for password input, each with different
+security implications:
+
+| Method | Security | Use case |
+|--------|----------|----------|
+| Interactive prompt | Highest | Manual administration |
+| File (0600 permissions) | Medium | Scripted deployments |
+| Stdin | Low | Pipelines (ensure no history) |
+
+For scripted deployments using password files:
+
+```bash
+# Create password file with restrictive permissions
+echo "SecurePassword123" > /tmp/pw.txt
+chmod 600 /tmp/pw.txt
+
+# Use in command
+chirpstack --config /etc/chirpstack reset-password -e admin@example.com -p /tmp/pw.txt
+
+# Immediately delete
+rm /tmp/pw.txt
+```
+
+### Default credentials
+
+Upon first installation, ChirpStack creates a default admin user with the
+credentials:
+
+- Username: `admin`
+- Password: `admin`
+
+**It is strongly recommended to change this password immediately upon first
+login** using either the web interface or the `reset-password` command.
