## Changelog

This changelog highlights releases that materially changed Link Extractor for users. Dates use UTC; small internal maintenance is intentionally omitted.

### 2026-09-06

*Reliability*

- Added `statusCode`, `finalUrl`, and `contentType` fetch diagnostics to every page result.
- Non-2xx responses and explicitly non-HTML responses now return an actionable error instead of looking like successful empty extractions.

### 2026-08-19

*Features*

- Added opt-in, breadth-first same-host crawling with `maxDepth` and `maxPagesPerStartUrl` limits.
- Added `sourceStartUrl` and `depth` provenance to every page summary.
- Existing inputs remain independent-page extractions because `maxDepth` defaults to `0`.

### 2026-06-19

*Features*

- Added ready-to-run task examples for extracting all links, finding external links, and checking page link structure.

### 2026-03-01

*Features*
