## Changelog

### 0.5.0 — 2026-09-07

#### Added

- Standby HTTP `/lookup` (max 5 handles) + OpenAPI schema. Console Start remains bulk (with suggestions).

### 0.4.1 — 2026-09-06

#### Fixed

- Empty Try input no longer exits with code 1 — falls back to the Console example handles and finishes SUCCEEDED.
- `Actor.exit` now times out in 5 seconds so RUN\_LOG flush cannot hang the run.

### 0.4.0 — 2026-09-01

*Apify actor version: 0.3*

#### Changed

- End-of-run log: next step to Social Handle Checker (15 networks).

### 0.3.0 — 2026-08-20

*Apify actor version: 0.3*

#### Fixed

- Crash `Cannot charge for synthetic event 'apify-default-dataset-item' manually`: charge `handle-checked` only, write rows via `Dataset.pushData` (never pass a synthetic event to `Actor.pushData`).
- Proxy under `LIMITED_PERMISSIONS`: skip `createProxyConfiguration`, use residential password URL (same as Instagram sibling).

### 0.2.0 — 2026-08-17

*Apify actor version: 0.2*

#### Changed

- Cloud proxy via `Actor.createProxyConfiguration` (RESIDENTIAL default), with password-URL fallback under LIMITED\_PERMISSIONS; HTTP/1.1 for proxy reliability.
- Pure `interpretTikTokProfile` helper + unit tests; ambiguous HTML retries once with a fresh proxy session.
- Buyer-facing logs (no proxy host paths); `verboseLogs` for debug detail.
- PPE: charge `handle-checked` then plain `pushData` (no synthetic event on push); `apify-default-dataset-item` at $0.

#### Fixed

- Cloud crash: `Cannot charge for synthetic event 'apify-default-dataset-item' manually`.
- Cloud TikTok blocks on datacenter — default residential + HTTP/1.1; up to 3 session rotates on ambiguous shells.

### 0.1.0 — 2026-08-17

*Apify actor version: 0.1*

#### Added

- Initial Actor: bulk TikTok username availability (no login).
- Suggestions when taken; Free plan 20 handles / run.
- PPE: `$3.50 / 1k` Free (`handle-checked`) — undercut maged120 (~$19 Free) and slightly under IG sibling (~$4).
- Published-tasks kit (≥4 Examples) + README ICP / pricing / legality / Also available.
- Local smoke: charlidamelio/khaby/mrbeast/tiktok = taken · random long handles = available.

#### Internals

- Probe signals (live Aug 2026): `statusCode` 10221 = available · `uniqueId` / status 0|10222 = taken. Do not trust visible “account not found” copy.
