## Changelog

### 1.2

Many additive output fields (no existing keys renamed or removed):

- Discovery/chaining: `city_id`, `place_id`.
- Timing: `start_time_formatted`, `current_start_timestamp` (next occurrence), `end_time` (often null), `days_until_event` (derived), `is_happening_now`.
- Classification: `category`, `event_kind`, `rsvp_style`.
- Tickets/price: `ticket_source`, `price`, `price_info`, `price_range_text`.
- Attendance: `attendance_facepile_count`, `attendance_tier` (small/medium/large/mega, derived), `interest_to_going_ratio` (derived).
- Hosts: `host_context_text`, `host_names`, `creator`, and `description_links`.

Skipped on purpose: `is_recurring` (no reliable signal in the API), `country_code` (no source field), `end_utc` (no end timestamp). Attendee identities are never returned.

### 1.1

Additive output fields (no existing keys renamed or removed):

- `start_utc` - event start as an ISO 8601 UTC string, derived from `start_timestamp`. A standard join key for combining datasets.
- `responded_count` - total responded (interested + going), for parity with other event scrapers.

Also in this release:

- City-based event discovery via `cityUrls` (a city's Facebook Events URL) with an optional `cityTime` filter (today / this week / next week). The most reliable way to discover events.
- Auto-detect inputs: fill any combination of city URLs, page/organizer URLs, event URLs, or keywords - the Actor scrapes everything provided. The `mode` and `fetchFullDetails` inputs were retired (full details are always fetched); old task inputs that still include them keep working.
- `maximumResults` default is now `0` = all events.
- Cleaner run logs (one summary line per source).

Note: Facebook's keyword event search is currently unreliable upstream and may return no results; use `cityUrls` for dependable discovery.
