Changelog

All notable changes to PriceGhost will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[1.0.1] - 2026-01-23

Added

  • Puppeteer fallback for JavaScript-rendered prices - Automatically uses headless browser when no price found in static HTML, fixing extraction for Magento, React, Vue, and other JS-heavy sites
  • Pre-order/coming soon detection - Products with future release dates, pre-order buttons, or "notify me" messaging are now correctly marked as out of stock
  • AI availability verification - AI now checks if products are actually purchasable, not just if the price is correct
  • Official PriceGhost branding - Custom ghost icon in navbar and login page
  • Ghostly text effect - "Ghost" text in navbar has ethereal fade effect

Fixed

  • Fresh install registration error - Backend now creates all required database tables on startup, fixing 500 errors on fresh Docker installs without init.sql
  • Stock status for unreleased products - Products showing "Coming Soon", "Available [future date]", or "Pre-order" are now correctly detected as out of stock

Changed

  • CI/CD optimization - Docker images only rebuild when relevant code changes (backend/** or frontend/**), not for README or documentation updates

Added
