## Changelog

### 2026-09-01

- Fleet-wide health check. Verified against this Actor's real run history: 30-day success rate, output row counts, per-field fill rates, and peak memory against the configured memory limit.
- Reviewed for the failure patterns that have cost this fleet runs — unguarded proxy setup, retry loops that can outlast the run's own time budget, and full-page HTML parsing that can exhaust a small container.
- No change to input, output fields or scraping logic.

### 2026-08-11

- Maintenance release: refreshed the build and dependencies.
- Re-verified live execution, non-empty structured output and dataset field/type integrity.
- Reviewed reliability (retries, pagination) and output quality as part of a full-fleet QA pass.

### 2026-08-06

- First release.
- Scrapes five Amazon charts — Best Sellers, New Releases, Movers & Shakers, Most Wished For, Gift Ideas — for any category across 19 marketplaces.
- Rank is read from the badge Amazon prints on the card rather than inferred from grid order.
- Prices, ratings, review counts and rank stored as numbers.
- TLS-impersonating client over residential proxy with a fresh exit IP per attempt and exponential backoff.
- Empty input scrapes a default category instead of erroring, bounded by `maxResults` (default 500).
