## 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.

### 2026-08-01

- Completed the August 2026 full health check: verified empty/programmatic default, Console UI default, and two source-informed alternative inputs on Apify.
- Confirmed successful live execution, non-empty structured output, dataset-field/type integrity, and logical sample quality within the 5-minute quality window.

### 2026-07-18

- Maintenance & reliability pass — re-verified end-to-end against live data via the Apify API; confirmed the Actor completes successfully and returns non-empty, well-formed results within the 5-minute quality window on its default input.
- Refreshed build so the latest version is current; no change to inputs, output fields or scraping logic.

### 2026-07-12

- Confirmed empty input `{}` returns the full **SDN list** with no filters (broad default) — all filters remain optional.
- Proxy now defaults to Apify Proxy (**AUTO**) instead of forcing the datacenter `SHADER` group. Added a **direct-connection fallback**: the OFAC download URLs 302-redirect to an AWS GovCloud S3 presigned link that can reject some proxy IPs, so the actor retries direct if the proxy fails. This fixes intermittent 0-row / connection-failure runs.
- `tonnage` and `grt` are now stored as **real numbers** (or `null`) instead of strings.
- Added `tonnage` and `grt` (numeric) to the dataset Overview view.
- Top-level errors are now logged gracefully instead of hard-failing the run, so already-pushed rows are preserved.
- Dataset rows are now pushed in **batches of 500** instead of one-by-one, so the full ~19k SDN list saves much faster and comfortably within the run timeout.
- Added `fields` metadata (titles + descriptions) to the dataset schema for a clearer Dataset view.
