## Changelog

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

### \[0.2] - 2026-09-09

#### Added

- 🏷️ **Typed entities on every article**: people, organizations, locations, subjects, and creative works, each pulled from The Times's own editorial tagging (not guessed from the text) and each carrying a stable identifier so the same person or place matches across articles. A new Entities view in the Output tab.
- 🔓 **Paywall status**: every article now reports whether it is free to read, straight from The Times's own signal, instead of leaving you to guess from how long the text is.
- 🔁 **Optional "only new" mode**: track a section feed or URL list on a schedule and get only the articles you haven't already collected, instead of paying for and re-downloading the same ones every run.
- 💸 Article rows that come back with the full text now bill separately from metadata-only rows, so a fast, no-text run costs a fraction of a full-text run.

#### Fixed

- 🛡️ Selecting a proxy without Apify's Unblocker service now shows a clear warning instead of silently returning zero articles.
- 🧹 Corrected the Store description, which was quoting an outdated price no longer in effect.

### \[0.1.0] - 2026-09-01

#### Added

- 🚀 Initial release: extracts New York Times articles by section feed, historical date archive, or specific URL, all in one Actor.
- ✨ Full article text, headline, byline, authors, publish and update dates, section and subsection, tags, images, word count and paragraph count in every result.
- 🛡️ Reliable, resilient access to New York Times content that other scrapers struggle to keep working.
- 📋 Three dataset views in the Output tab: articles overview, full text, and media & tags.
