Changelog

• Upgrade, downgrade, or switch between monthly and annual billing from your subscription card — no need to leave the dashboard.
• Upgrades and switches to annual take effect right away. Downgrades and switches to monthly apply at the end of your current billing period.
• Open the dashboard to manage your plan.

• Enter a code from an event, partner, or support in the dashboard to add credits to your account.
• Redeemed credits show up separately so you can see what's left and when they expire.
• Each code can be redeemed once per account. Start from the dashboard when you have a code.

• Top up any amount from $5 to $2,000. The base rate is $1 = 1,000 credits, and larger top-ups receive a bonus on the whole amount.
• Top-up credits never expire. Subscription allowances still reset each month and are spent first.
• Optional auto top-up charges the amount you set after your combined available balance falls below your threshold.
• Auto top-up is off by default, capped at three charges in 24 hours, and turns itself off after repeated payment failures.
• Read the launch note or start from the pricing page.

• dsh-s1 gives your DeepSeek Harness agent live web access — web search, news, page retrieval, sitemap discovery, and trending topics — as first-class dsh tools with no MCP bridge.
• Runs in-process against the official SDK, with a bundled s1 skill that teaches the model when to search, crawl, or go deeper.
• Install with dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-s1.

• Search1API's hosted MCP server at https://mcp.search1api.com/mcp supports the Model Context Protocol revision 2026-07-28, published on July 28, 2026.
• The revision makes MCP stateless: protocol-level sessions and the initialize handshake are gone, and every request carries its protocol version and client capabilities in _meta.

• Added OAuth 2.1 Authorization Code with PKCE and Dynamic Client Registration for AI agents and native clients, including access tokens, refresh tokens, and standard revocation metadata.
• Enabled OAuth discovery and Bearer-token authentication across the REST API and Hosted MCP while keeping existing API keys fully supported on the same account, credits, billing, rate limits, and usage reporting.
