versioning:
  scheme: path
  versions_in_use:
  - v1
  - v2
  notes: 'Crawl jobs, the agent and /v1/auth live under /v1; scrape, feeds and organization usage under /v2. v2/scrape
    superseded v1 scrape on 2025-06-07 (changelog "scrape v2"). The docs are not consistent about prefixes: /docs/feeds
    shows /v1/feeds while the reference pages and the Swagger document declare /v2/feed; /docs/api/organization/*
    shows an unprefixed /organization/usage while the Swagger document declares /v2/organization/usage. The Swagger
    document is treated as authoritative here.'

  deprecated_fields:
  - field: PostScrapeRequestV2.output_format
    replacement: output_formats
    since: '2026-04-14'
    evidence: 'Schema description "Deprecated: use output_formats instead." in openapi/_original/webcrawlerapi-com-swagger.json;
      docs mark it "(optional, legacy)".'

  notes: No deprecation or sunset policy is published and no operation is marked deprecated, so no Deprecation pointer
    is emitted. The one field-level deprecation is announced in the schema and the docs but carries no removal date.
docs_vs_spec_drift:
- documented: GET /organization/balance
  in_spec: false
  docs: https://webcrawlerapi.com/docs/api/organization/balance
  note: Announced 2026-04-09; absent from swagger/doc.json.

  documented: false
  note: Present in the Swagger document but on no docs page.
