### 1.1 — 2026-09-06

- When the caller explicitly selects Apify Unblocker, accept its valid application/octet-stream HTML responses so Cheerio can parse them, with bounded retries and a longer route-specific timeout.
- On a zero-product classified native block, the default bounded fallback retries at most two unique search seeds once through Unblocker. It records safe route/fallback counts in OUTPUT/RUN_SUMMARY; no proxy credentials or raw response data are stored.
- Retry an empty product-detail response before degrading to a search-only record, and mark requested-but-unavailable detail enrichment as PARTIAL.
- Invalid user input now writes matching OUTPUT and RUN_SUMMARY records with INVALID_INPUT; it succeeds without a raw process exit.
- Normalize complete product records before the SDK-coupled product-found write/event. Invalid rows are skipped with diagnostics rather than replaced with fabricated minimal records. Schema-compatible non-empty scrapedAt strings remain valid; a zero-row validation failure is an honest UPSTREAM_FAILED run, never a misleading SUCCEEDED outcome.
- Default proxy behavior remains unchanged: residential preferred, then datacenter fallback.

### 1.0 — 2026-06-19
