## Changelog

All notable changes to this actor are documented here. This renders on the Apify Store
Info tab, so keep entries buyer-readable.

### 0.2 — 2026-07-31

#### Fixed

- **A store that refuses both proxy pools now costs seconds, not minutes.** The datacenter attempt
  already failed fast, but the residential retry still spent its full backoff budget on refusals
  that were never going to clear: a refused run took 262s to return nothing, having received less
  than half of one storefront page. The catalog fetch — most of the requests in a run — inherits
  the same budget now, so ordinary runs are faster too.
- **The run log finally explains a refusal.** These diagnostics went to stdlib logging, which never
  reaches the Apify run log, so a refused run was 4 minutes of silence followed by an empty result.

### \[0.1.0] - Unreleased

- First release: **audit any Shopify store** from its public storefront (httpx, no browser) —
  confirm it's Shopify, detect installed **apps by category** + theme, and derive catalog/pricing
  signals (product count, price range, currency, discount rate, new-products-30d). Computes
  **tech-stack gap flags** and a lead-match against your `targetGaps`, for B2B prospecting.
- **Change monitoring:** with `compareToPrevious`, each run diffs against the previous one and
  reports **apps added/removed** and the product-count delta — run on a schedule to track stores.
- **Pay-per-event pricing:** $0.01 per Shopify store audited (`dataset-item`) — you're only charged
  for confirmed Shopify stores; non-Shopify or unreachable domains are free. Apify platform usage
  (compute) is billed separately. Example: 1,000 stores audited = $10.00.
