## Changelog

### 2026-10-24

- Read English image text from supplied public Instagram photo-post URLs.
- Process the first five images of verified photo-only carousels with per-image source provenance and truncation counts.
- Return no_text when no confident OCR is found; never substitute captions or video frames.
- Reject videos, mixed carousels and unavailable media; failed batches retain explicit partial results.
- Normalize image orientation and bound the OCR canvas to 1280 pixels per dimension for predictable large-carousel processing; small lettering may be missed.
- Open dataset results using the overview view.
