New

• Crawler chaining — a squid can now automatically feed its results into a second crawler as soon as a run completes. Configure a chain on any squid by setting a chain object with the following fields:

  Field	Type	Description
  target_crawler	string	Slug of the crawler that will receive the results as inputs
  field_map	object	Maps a result field from the source to an input param on the target (e.g. {"url": "url"})
  autostart	boolean	If true, the downstream run starts immediately. If false, tasks are queued and the run is left paused for manual review. Defaults to true
  cluster_settings	object	Optional — pre-configure the downstream squid’s name and concurrency on first creation

• GET /v1/squids/{id} — response now includes a chain object when a chain is configured on the squid
• GET /v1/runs — runs triggered by a chain now include "origin": "chain" in the response
