## Changelog

### 2026-10-09

- No proxy settings any more: pages YouTube refuses are retried automatically on stronger routes, so a run delivers its rows without you picking a proxy — and without any proxy charge.
- Exact stats are now read four Shorts at a time — about four times faster.
- New field: `descriptionLinks` (full addresses of links in the description).

### 2026-10-02

- When your maximum cost per run is reached, the run now ends right away with a status message explaining how to get more rows; everything written is paid for, nothing more.
- Default memory now scales with your input, so small runs start faster and use less memory.

### 2026-09-23

- Initial release: collect YouTube Shorts from channels, hashtags and search with exact views, likes, comment count, publish date, title, description, hashtags and the channel with its subscriber count.
