## Changelog

### 0.1 (October 27, 2026)

#### Added

- First release: search YouTube for channels by keyword (`searchTerms`), with `minSubscribers`, `maxSubscribers` and `verifiedOnly` filters applied before billing.
- `excludedChannels` to skip specific handles or channel ids, always free.
- `includeChannelDetails` adds total views, joined date, country and description links from each channel's About page, at no extra charge.
- `timeBudgetSecs` input (default 240, 0 = no limit): the run returns what is ready before the limit, so n8n, Make and `run-sync` calls no longer time out at 300 seconds.
