## Changelog

### 2026-10-05

*Reliability*

- Enabled datacenter proxy for new/default inputs to recover catalog extraction when Toolify blocks direct access. Explicit proxy opt-out and custom proxy settings remain respected; saved inputs with proxy disabled must enable it.
- Keep structured-endpoint cookies and proxy identity together across pages, refreshing both on bounded retries.
- Added sanitized failure diagnostics to improve investigation of future source blocks.

### 2026-08-02

*Reliability*

- Added a structured public-data fallback for category, keyword, and ranking sources when Toolify challenges its HTML pages, with bounded session-refresh retries for transient fallback blocks.

### 2026-07-24

*Features*

- Initial release with Toolify category URLs, category-keyword resolution, ranking lists, pagination, and global result limits.
- Exports normalized AI tool names, profile and website URLs, descriptions, categories, ratings, saves, pricing plans, features, use cases, and ranking context when Toolify exposes them.
- Supports optional Apify Proxy configuration and locale fallbacks for rate-limited public routes.
