description: rtcStats has no dedicated /changelog page. Release notes are published as dated blog posts
  under the "New Releases" category on roughly a monthly cadence, each carrying a product minor version.
  The API itself is not separately versioned in these notes — it stays at v1.0 — but API-affecting changes
  (the dedicated api.rtcstats.com host, the observations catalog, self-hosted enrichment) are announced
  here.
scheme: semver-minor, monthly product releases; REST API pinned at v1.0 in the URI path

schema_versioning:
  note: The analysis payload carries its own schema version independent of the product release. llms.txt
    documents the get_session payload at schema 6.3 and records that schema 6.9 removed the former unitless
    aggregate keys (rtt_out_audio, in_audio, ...). This is the only place breaking payload changes are
    recorded.

gaps:
- No machine-readable changelog and no feed — a consumer has to scrape a blog category to learn that
  a payload schema changed.
