## Changelog

### 0.2 (Oct 28, 2026): Deletion Watch add-on

- **Deletion flags are now an opt-in add-on.** `deletionWatch` is off by default, so existing runs and tasks stop getting flag rows and deletion fields unless you set `deletionWatch: true`. Set it to keep them.
- Price: $0.05 per Likely censored or Censored flag row (event `deletion-watch-row`), effective Nov 11, 2026 after Apify's 14-day notice. Returned rows carry no add-on charge. Base price unchanged at $8 per 1,000 results.
- New free inputs: `keywords` (filter by title, summary or source) and `alertSummary` (ALERT record; requires `deletionWatch`). `emitOnlyNew` stays free and on by default.
- The Deletion Watch daily preset now sets `deletionWatch: true`.

### 0.2 (Oct 2026)

- Deletion watch labels: "Likely censored" by default; "Censored" only with hard evidence (dead link, platform removal notice, or a close match to a specific CDT item). A tracker keyword match alone is not enough.
- Every row carries `translation_status`; English is machine translation where available.
- Default `maxItems` 200 with a time budget, so default runs finish in about 4 minutes; short-timeout runs push only new rows.
- Top-15 summary wording: "Flagged this run" / "Dropped off at".
- Public tasks: Weibo hot search in English; China Deletion Watch; China news in English; China hot lists snapshot.
