## Changelog

### \[1.1.0] - 2026-08-31

- Replaced browser-heavy scraping with the public Algolia search endpoint and page JobPosting JSON-LD.
- Added strict mode-aware input and URL validation, exact item/page limits, deduplication, retries, challenge detection, and optional proxy support.
- Removed null and blank placeholders and expanded source-backed job, location, salary, profession, sector, and company metadata.
- Added optional search-result detail enrichment and bounded direct-URL concurrency.
- Added output schema, dataset validation, runnable QA inputs, documentation, and an explicit latest deployment tag.
- Replaced the Playwright image and duplicate browser installation with the lightweight Node Actor image.
- Added a lockfile-backed deterministic production dependency install.
- Gracefully tears down Actor services and HTTP dispatchers without forcing process exit while Windows handles are closing.
- Omits the target's non-informative `unknown` remote-policy placeholder.
- Scoped challenge detection to rendered HTML and avoids false positives from the site's public reCAPTCHA configuration key.
- Corrected `experienceLevel` to its real numeric source type and added local dataset type checks.
