## Changelog

### 2026-09-09

*Output completeness*

- Results now include active status, served countries, and per-country impression shares whenever LinkedIn exposes them on the already-fetched detail page.
- Country transparency examples now reflect LinkedIn's displayed country names, and the run-start charge description correctly identifies the HTTP guest session.

### 2026-09-06

*Reliability*

- LinkedIn guest-session challenges now recover automatically while preserving the same proxy identity and cookies, restoring default searches without requiring login.
- Dataset fields now include machine-readable descriptions for clearer API, Console, and MCP output.

### 2026-07-22

*Reliability*

- Empty but valid LinkedIn searches now complete successfully with an empty dataset, while blocked or malformed source responses still fail clearly.

### 2026-07-19

*Reliability*

- Restored ad extraction after LinkedIn moved search cards to its pagination endpoint and introduced employer-brand ad detail pages.
- Runs now fail clearly when LinkedIn returns no parseable ads instead of silently succeeding with an empty dataset.
