  SpyFu publishes dated release notes as a single continuously-updated
  "What's New on SpyFu" article in its Intercom-hosted help centre, not as a
  developer-portal changelog. Entries are product-wide (web app, billing,
  account) with API changes mixed in; each bullet carries an internal Jira-style
  issue key (SF-*, BLOG-*). There is no per-API version history, no RSS/Atom
  feed, no API-only changelog view, and the developer portal's own /changelog
  path returns 404. Only entries with API relevance are structured below, from
  the most recent window.

    api_affected: Ad History API
    highlights:
      - >-
        Added the getDomainAdHistoryByDate endpoint so a domain's ad URL history
        can be pulled across a specific date range (minSearchDateId /
        maxSearchDateId) with complete, consistent results, replacing the
        non-deterministic record sets the grouped endpoint returned.

    api_affected: SpyFu Custom GPT
    highlights:
      - >-
        Added a "Launch in ChatGPT" call-to-action inside the app for the SpyFu
        Custom GPT, the agent surface backed by the aggregated OpenAPI in
        github.com/spyfu/spyfu_api_docs/chatgpt/.

    date: '2026-05-13'
    type: improvement
    breaking: false
    api_affected: API billing / account
    highlights:
      - >-
        Added a maximum API spending cap with alerts and an account-level record
        when the limit is reached, to prevent runaway pay-as-you-go charges.
    issues: [SF-23518]
  - version:
    date: '2026-05-06'
    type: improvement
    breaking: false
    api_affected: Account API / usage reporting
    highlights:
      - >-
        Added an API usage screen in the account and subscription area for
        per-endpoint consumption and cost tracking — the UI counterpart of the
        Account API usage endpoints.
    issues: [SF-23494]
  - version:
    date: '2026-04-15'
    type: improvement
    breaking: false
    api_affected: API billing
    highlights:
      - >-
        Clearer messaging about how bundled plan API credits work, plus an
        explicit disclosure that usage charges apply beyond the credit.
    issues: [SF-23493]
  - version:
    date: '2026-03-25'
    type: addition
    breaking: false
    api_affected: All research APIs (countryCode)
    highlights:
      - >-
        Added data coverage for Czechia and Finland — new values for the
        countryCode enum shared by most SpyFu endpoints.
    issues: []
observations:
  - >-
    Spec drift: the 2026-07-15 entry ships getDomainAdHistoryByDate, and the
    first-party OpenAPI at github.com/spyfu/spyfu_api_docs (v1.0 branch, pushed
    2026-07-13) carries it as a fourth Ad History path. The captured Ad History
    definition in this repo holds three operations and predates that release, so
    the catalogued spec is one operation behind the shipped API.
  - >-
    Breaking changes are not signalled as such. No deprecation notices, sunset
    dates, or version-bump announcements appear anywhere in the recent window.
