## Changelog

### 0.1.x — exit success on zero results

- A run that scrapes zero records (Google throttled the session, or the terms have
  no data) now exits SUCCESS instead of failing. Users were never billed for it; a
  failed run was needlessly dragging the store success rate. Clear status message
  tells the user to retry with a residential proxy.

### 0.1.0 (2026-07-08)

Initial release.

- Search-term mode: interest over time, interest by region (COUNTRY / REGION / CITY / DMA), related queries (top & rising), related topics (top & rising) — one dataset record per term.
- Trending Now mode: daily trending searches per country with traffic estimates, pictures, and driving news stories.
- All Google Trends time ranges incl. custom date ranges, all geos incl. subregions, categories, and search properties (Web / Images / News / YouTube / Shopping).
- Aggressive 429 resilience: per-term sessions (proxy IP + fresh Google cookie), automatic session rotation on throttle, exponential backoff with jitter, polite pacing between requests.
- Clean curated output: ISO dates, numeric values, no anti-XSSI junk, undefined-free records.
