## Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

### \[0.2.0] — 2026-05-20

#### Fixed

- Add `prefill` to the discriminating input field so Apify's automated daily QA receives a runnable payload. Empty-input runs were tripping the Pydantic `model_validate` XOR/required-field check inside 100 ms, which after three consecutive days flagged the Actor "Under maintenance" and unlisted it from the Apify Store.

### \[0.1.0] — 2026-05-16 (published)

#### Published

- Pushed to Apify Store as `DevilScrapes/lemmy-community-scraper` (actor id: `4yyYOxupijLPfFJIJ`), build `0.1.1`.
- Cloud QA: run `jsoPuEEcvAt1DAb5f` — SUCCEEDED, 17 rows (5 posts + 12 comments), discriminator field present.

### \[0.1.0] — 2026-05-16

#### Added

- Initial release: posts + optional comments per public Lemmy community, cursor-paginated posts and integer-paginated comments via the public `/api/v3/` REST API.
- Discriminated `ResultRow`: `row_type="post"` or `"comment"` in one dataset, with community + parent-post metadata denormalised onto every comment row.
- 17-token sort enum (Lemmy v0.19 compatible — bare `Top` rejected at input).
- `comment_parent_id` derived from `comment.path` for downstream tree reconstruction.
- Three PPE events: `actor-start` ($0.05), `result-row` ($0.002), `result-row-comment` ($0.001).
- Pydantic v2 input + output models per ADR-0004.
- Part of the Federated Social Suite alongside `bluesky-starter-pack` and `bluesky-feed-posts`.
