## Changelog

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

### \[0.1.1] - 2026-10-26

#### Changed

- ⚙️ Billing now follows what each row contains: a small base charge for every row, a company profile charge for rows with a full profile, and a deep sections charge only where shareholders, investments or executives returned data.
- ⚙️ Search-level rows, rows with no match and sections that could not be read never carry the extra charges.
- 🛡️ When the run spending limit cannot cover the extras, the deeper sections are left out and marked as skipped instead of stopping the whole row.

#### Fixed

- 🐛 Shareholders and executives of privately held companies are now read correctly, and a section the site lists but that cannot be read is reported as failed instead of empty.
- 🐛 Credit code lookups now match exactly.

### \[0.1.0] - 2026-10-26

#### Added

- 🚀 First release: look up Chinese companies by name, unified social credit code, registration number, company link or company id and get one merged row per company.
- ✨ Exact matching for names and codes. Every row says whether the match was exact, the closest available or none, and no company is ever guessed.
- ✨ Registry profile in a single row: legal representative, status with an English label, registered and paid-in capital as numbers, establishment date, address, business scope, industry, staff range, tax details, listing information and public financial figures.
- ✨ Optional sections in the same row: shareholders with ownership percentages and controller flags, outbound investments, executives and directors, and a counts-only risk summary.
- ✨ Keyword discovery with an optional province split to reach beyond the first 20 results, with duplicates removed.
- ✨ Monitor mode: name a watch list and each run marks companies NEW, UPDATED, UNCHANGED, CLOSED or REOPENED and lists exactly which registry fields changed.
- ✨ Honest contact data: partly hidden phone numbers are left out and flagged instead of guessed, while full emails are returned with their source year.
- ✨ Per-row section status, so one unreadable section never costs you the rest of the row.
- ✨ Clear status rows for inputs that could not be resolved, and a run summary with every outcome.
- 🛡️ Free-plan runs are limited in size and frequency to keep the service available for everyone.
