## 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

- Initial release of **Reddit Lead Finder — B2B Leads & Buying Intent**.
- Finds Reddit users expressing buying intent or pain about a topic and outputs a structured B2B social-selling lead list.
- Keyword × subreddit full-text search over the keyless, no-login Arctic-Shift Reddit archive (posts searched on title, comments on body).
- Derived `intentLabel` per lead via keyword + text-pattern heuristics: `buying-signal`, `seeking-recommendation`, `complaint`, `question`, `general`.
- Rich sales-ready fields: type, redditId, subreddit, author, authorProfileUrl, title, text, matchedKeyword, intentLabel, score, numComments, upvoteRatio, createdUtc, permalink, url, flair, over18.
- Fully optional input — empty `{}` returns 1000+ buying-intent leads across a strong default set of high-traffic B2B / business subreddits.
- Dropdown selects for `intentFilter` and `contentType`; optional `afterDate` / `beforeDate` / `minScore` filters.
- Robust runtime: `~4` minute time budget with graceful early save, fresh proxy IP per retry with direct-connection fallback, retries on 403/429/5xx/590, nullable-safe dataset schema, `required: []`.
