⚠️ BREAKING CHANGES

🔧 Exa Research API Refactor

  • BREAKING: Dropped backward compatibility for legacy Exa Research methods

  • New API: Now uses only latest SDK methods: research.create, research.get, research.pollUntilFinished
  • Impact: Simplified polling logic for better reliability and performance

🎯 What's New Since v1.0.2

🔐 Security & Infrastructure (v1.0.4-1.0.7)

  • Enhanced CI/CD: Improved npm publishing with better error handling

🔄 Compatibility & Stability (v1.0.5)

  • exa-js 1.9+ Support: Full compatibility with intelligent fallbacks
  • Dependency Pinning: exa-js pinned to 1.9.1 to prevent version drift
