## Changelog

### 1.0 (2026-10-20)

- First release: every job on reed.co.uk, read through the same JSON calls Reed's own pages use (up to 1,000 jobs per call).
- Keyword × location searches with Reed's filters: job type, full-/part-time, remote / hybrid / on-site, salary range, date posted, posted by (agency / employer / Reed), 37 specialisms, graduate, Easy Apply, visa sponsorship, early bird, hide training courses, hide jobs without salary, distance 0–50 miles.
- Pasted Reed URLs: search pages with any filters (read the way Reed's own page reads them), recruiter / employer job pages (/jobs/<name>/p<number>) and single job pages or job numbers.
- Recruiters and employers by name, profile number or Reed URL; keywords, locations and filters narrow their jobs.
- Whole-site export: Reed serves only the first 10,000 results of a search (deeper pages silently repeat the last window), so bigger searches are split along Reed's own facets (job type × posted by × specialism, then remote/hybrid, hours, county); every job is de-duplicated by its Reed id. Measured: all 99,567 jobs in 72 s, 0 duplicates.
- Newest-first order for every read above 1,000 jobs (Reed's relevance order shifts between pages); completion pass for parts that end below 99.5 % of their size.
- Salary exactly as Reed shows it (same formatting rules as Reed's pages; "Training Course" for course adverts) plus numbers, currency, period, Reed's yearly equivalent and its notes (OTE, benefits, pro-rata, negotiable, commission only).
- Reed's UK local times converted to UTC ISO 8601.
- Job records: full description (text, optional HTML), region, country, postcode district, specialism and sub-specialism, occupation, skills, screening questions (all of Reed's form versions), cover-letter rule, advertiser reference, company page, advertiser category (recruitment consultancy / direct employer / charity), visa sponsorship, UK right-to-work, graduate flag, external application.
- Location line and town exactly as Reed's job page prints them.
- Direct connection with a self-adjusting pace (default 30 requests per second); when Reed holds the platform's shared address, up to 150 requests go through UK residential IPs with their own pace, and the direct connection is retried every 30 s.
- Pay-per-result budget handled cleanly: stops at the run's maximum cost with a clear message (SUMMARY `stoppedBy: MAX_COST`).
