## Changelog

### 2026-09-19

*Reliability*

- People lists accidentally submitted as a top-level array or as contiguous numeric fields are now recovered instead of failing at startup. The documented `{ "people": [...] }` and `csvUrl` modes are unchanged.

*Safety*

- Runtime logs now report lookup status without printing personal names or discovered email addresses.

### 2026-09-12

*Fixes*

- CSV imports now retry temporary host and network failures with bounded backoff, reducing avoidable failed bulk runs while preserving validation and charging behavior.

### 2026-08-21

*Features*

- Added opt-in `csvUrl` import for public HTTPS CSV lead lists, bounded to 5 MB and 5,000 rows with validation before person processing.

### 2026-05-25

*Changes*

- Removed deprecated messaging and stale links so the Actor's active email-finding workflow is described accurately.

### 2026-04-22

*Changes*

- Updated documentation and API examples to match website, GitHub, Gravatar, and pattern-based discovery methods.

### 2026-03-09

*Initial release*

- Launched business email discovery from a person's name and company domain.
