Commit referenced: 017003d1248efde5efe8f0c70576a70c378f40af (PR #1597).

2025-03 Monthly summary: Focused on cost governance, predictable run budgets, and cross-language parity. Implemented new cost-cap and item-bounds controls across API surfaces and client libraries, with documentation and OpenAPI updates to reflect these changes. This work underpins safer pay-per-use usage and clearer budgeting for customers. Key features delivered include: - apify/apify-docs: Introduced maxTotalChargeUsd parameter across API endpoints for actor and task runs; updated documentation and environment variable ACTOR_MAX_TOTAL_CHARGE_USD; OpenAPI specs aligned. - apify/apify-client-js: Resurrect functionality extended with maxItems and maxTotalChargeUsd options in RunClient; updates to run.ts and interface definitions for client method options. - apify/apify-client-python: Resurrect with limits controls (max_items, max_total_charge_usd) added to RunClient and RunClientAsync to bound items and cost. Overall impact: Enabled cost predictability and processing bounds across API and client layers, improving budgeting accuracy and user trust while maintaining feature parity across languages. Technologies/skills demonstrated: API design and governance, cross-repo coordination, OpenAPI and Markdown documentation updates, TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, environment variable handling, and client API surface stabilization.

December 2024: Delivered the Actor Categorization System in apify-shared-js by introducing a new 'Open source' category to ACTOR_CATEGORIES, enabling filtering, display, and analytics groundwork. Implemented via a constants-level change (feat(consts)) with commit 7ed8b9acf5abb9824605cccaf2eb3bb0f64a9b5b. No major bugs reported this month for this repository. Impact: improves actor discovery, data quality for analytics, and supports future analytics features. Demonstrated skills include JavaScript/TypeScript, constants/config management, and a disciplined commit-based workflow.
