## 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

- **No mandatory filters:** removed the required `mode` constraint — the Actor now runs with an empty input `{}`.
- **Zero-input default:** when no ticker symbols are provided, the Actor loads a default set of ~20 popular tickers (AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, BTC-USD, ^GSPC, SPY, …) so empty input returns data. Search mode with no query now browses popular tickers via live quotes instead of erroring.
- **Dropdowns:** added human-readable `enumTitles` to the Mode, Range and Interval selects.
- **Real numbers:** `volume` and `marketCap` are now always stored as real numbers; the quote-fallback path now computes `change` / `changePercent` from previous close.
- **Proxy:** default proxy is AUTO (`useApifyProxy: true`); added a direct-connection fallback on the final retry for these public JSON endpoints. Removed the empty `apifyProxyGroups` prefill.
- **Resilience:** top-level errors are logged instead of hard-failing the run; added a ~4-minute time budget for long historical paginations (pushes what was collected and exits successfully).
- **Schema:** added a `fields` JSON-schema (nullable unions) to `dataset_schema.json` with per-field titles/descriptions; numeric columns render via the view's `format: number`.
