v0.12.0

v0.12.0

v0.11.2

v0.11.2

v0.11.1

Fixed

• Structured summary parsing - When summary: { schema: ... } is provided, the gem now automatically parses the JSON-encoded summary string returned by the API into a Ruby Hash. Plain text summaries (no schema) are unchanged.

Changed

• Parameter consolidation - Flat content sub-parameters (e.g., text_max_characters, highlights_query) are now automatically nested under their parent hashes before conversion, simplifying CLI integration

v0.11.0

What's Changed

Added

• Text verbosity - Added --text-verbosity CLI flag with compact, standard, and full options for controlling text extraction detail level
• System prompt - Added --system-prompt CLI flag and system_prompt parameter (converts to systemPrompt) for AI-powered search customization
• Content moderation - Added --moderation CLI flag to enable content moderation on search results

Changed

• Livecrawl flag - --livecrawl is now a boolean flag (was a mode string). Enables livecrawl with smart defaults: maxAgeHours=0 and livecrawlTimeout=5000. Use --livecrawl-timeout and --max-age-hours to override defaults

Fixed

• Category list - Removed deprecated pdf category from valid categories

v0.10.0

• Additional search parameters - Added additional_queries, output_schema, and user_location parameter conversions

Fixed

• Parameter conversion - num_results, include_domains, exclude_domains, and highlights now correctly convert to camelCase in request body
• CLI search parser - Updated to support current API search types (auto, fast, deep, neural, instant, deep-reasoning)

v0.8.0

Added

• Automatic .env file loading - CLI and library now automatically load environment variables from .env files, eliminating the need to manually set EXA_API_KEY environment variable

Changed

• dotenv dependency - Moved dotenv from development to runtime dependency to support automatic .env file loading
