  CloudChipr publishes no /changelog and no docs release-notes section. Product releases are
  published as dated "Product Updates" posts on the marketing blog under a "Release Notes" tag.
  That is a real, dated change record - it is just not at a changelog URL and it is not API-scoped.

    api_key_change:
      summary: >-
        API Keys gain a "Last Used" column, and THE EXPIRATION REQUIREMENT WAS REMOVED - long-lived
        API credentials are now permitted.
      supersedes: >-
        https://docs.cloudchipr.com/docs/api-keys (last updated 2025-10-15) still states a mandatory
        1-365 day expiry. The docs page is stale on this point as of 2026-07-01. Recorded here
        because an agent reading only the docs would wrongly assume every key expires.

  - No RSS/Atom feed and no machine-readable release feed.
  - No version numbers on releases - entries are identified only by date.
