### \[0.1.0] - 2026-09-02

#### Added

- 🚀 Initial release: scrapes Belgian business listings from Pages d'Or and Gouden Gids.
- ✨ Added bilingual coverage: search either the French (Pages d'Or) or Dutch (Gouden Gids) edition of the same nationwide directory.
- ✨ Every search result now returns full contact, VAT, and KBO detail in one run, not just a name and a link.
- ➕ Added official KBO business register status and a direct link to the government register for every listing.
- ➕ Added VAT number, founding date, and employee count alongside standard contact and address fields.
- ✨ Added optional monitor mode: scheduled runs push only listings new since the previous run, turning the Actor into a new-listing alert feed.
- ➕ Added keyword and location filters, with unlimited-Belgium search when location is left blank.

#### Changed

- ⚡ Switched to a lighter-weight default connection mode, cutting run time by around a third with no change in data quality.
