## Changelog

### 2026-09-20

*Changes*

- Made direct Herold search URLs deterministic: valid `startUrls` now take precedence over keyword/location fields, and invalid domains fail before scraping.
- Added bounded retries, pagination-loop protection, and actionable failures instead of misleading successful empty runs.
- Added `pageNumber` and global `rank` while preserving the existing `position` field.
- Made profile enrichment concurrent and fault-tolerant, with more focused profile text and safer official-website selection.
- Increased profile-mode memory headroom after a 256 MB smoke exposed an out-of-memory risk.

### 2026-07-05

*Features*

- Initial release. Scrape Herold.at Austrian Yellow Pages business listings with contacts, websites, addresses, ratings, profile URLs, and search context.
