## Changelog

### 0.2 - 2026-09-27

- Upstream calls pass `apify_proxy_groups: []` so the estimator uses Apify auto proxy groups. Omitting the key let the upstream input-schema default (a proxy group name that does not exist on most accounts) apply, which sent Apple and Play requests out unproxied.
- Upstream call is bounded by this run's remaining time; an unfinished upstream run is aborted and reported as `ok: false`.
- Upstream sample/demo records are dropped; when no live records remain, or the upstream finishes FAILED/TIMED-OUT with nothing, the tool returns `ok: false` with the reason.
- Batch entries that are not objects, have no `tool`, or have non-object `args` now emit an error record each instead of being skipped silently.
- Review-ask and related-actor lines load directly from `related_actors.py` (stdlib-only), so they print on this image.

### 0.1 - 2026-06-12

Initial release. MCP server wrapper for app-store-revenue-estimator exposing
four typed tools to AI agents:

- `estimate_app` - modeled download/revenue band for one app (iOS id/URL or Play package/URL) with confidence, methodology, and caveats.
- `compare_apps` - estimate 2 to 10 apps and rank them by download-band midpoint with a leader/trailer comparison summary.
- `get_publisher_portfolio` - all of a publisher's apps with per-app estimates plus one combined portfolio band.
- `get_top_chart_estimates` - top N apps of a country's chart (top-free or top-paid) with an estimate per app, ranked by chart position (Apple feeds only, top\_n cap 50).

Estimates are order-of-magnitude bands with stated confidence, not measurements;
they tighten when the upstream runs on a schedule and accumulates ratings-velocity
history. Not affiliated with Apple, Google, or Sensor Tower.

Run modes: list\_tools (free catalog), call\_tool, batch (max 10 calls/run).
Billing: $0.005 per mcp\_tool\_call plus upstream app-store-revenue-estimator
pass-through events (app\_record $0.010, estimate\_enrichment $0.020,
publisher\_rollup $0.030). x402 (USDC on Base) and Skyfire agentic-payment ready.
In-run budget guard: 5 tool-call hard cap, $0.05 low-revenue abort after 5
attempts, 600s runtime cap.
