### 2026-09-23

*Features and reliability*

- Restore keyword search against the current public JSON POST endpoint, yielding full job records and application URLs; report when the source restricts results after the first 20 per query.
- Apply optional filters to recovered page listings, avoiding out-of-filter jobs; report malformed source responses rather than treating them as empty results.
- Allow genuine zero-match searches to finish with an empty dataset and clear log message.

### 2026-07-31

*Reliability*

- Added an anti-blocking browser fallback for Remote Rocketship's new JavaScript challenge while retaining the faster API and HTTP routes when available.
- Query results are now checked against visible job metadata, preventing unrelated fallback listings from being labeled and billed as matches.
- Removed the costly residential-browser escalation; the SHADER browser now uses embedded listings only when the same relevance check finds useful matches.
- Browser fallback startup no longer depends on a runtime GeoIP database download, preventing invalid MMDB files from terminating multi-query runs.

### 2026-07-16

*Reliability*

- Restored job extraction after Remote Rocketship began blocking direct server requests. Requests now use a stable proxy route, with the existing HTML fallback retained.
- Runs now fail clearly instead of reporting success when no valid job listings can be extracted.

### 2026-06-26

*Features*

- Initial release with keyword and saved-search URL inputs, optional job filters, normalized job records, and pay-per-result billing.
