v0.4.165

• Previews and finals over the HTTP API take background: grey (default, unchanged), white (only what the camera sees directly turns white; lighting and reflections stay on the studio light) or transparent. It needs an environment preset such as preset='product'.
• The MCP server's registry listing is titled JANCTION Render.

v0.4.164

• A render whose estimate fits your free GPU time no longer asks for a small credit hold when the key has no credit: it runs free, and if it runs a little past the free time we cover that part (up to 50 JPY).
• On free time, a single heavy frame that runs past the time limit is drawn again within your welcome credit left, instead of failing.
• janction-render upload <file> sends a file without a key and returns a link an AI app can use as scene_url.

v0.4.163

Security: repeated failed sign-ins from one network are paused for a few minutes (429 auth_locked with Retry-After); requests without a key are not affected. Paid and long renders are no longer moved out of the extra sandbox layer when it fails to start; they are retried on another GPU worker at no charge.

v0.4.162

0.4.160: the start page shows free credit and its deadline; credit notes tell "expiring" apart from "low"; under 48 hours the time left is given in hours; earlier render settings stay available after files expire.
0.4.161: /facts.json lists use cases so an AI can tell when this service fits a request.
0.4.162: groundwork for connecting JANCTION Storage (off until Storage switches it on). Prices, limits and paid-render approval are unchanged.

v0.4.159

The CLI balance and doctor commands now report welcome/free credit separately from prepaid balance and show the actual total available amount, preventing a key with card-granted free credit from being mistaken for a zero-credit key.

JANCTION Render 0.4.157

Forces a full recrawl signal after correcting stale commercial terms and adds automated detection of obsolete claims in AI citation evaluations.

JANCTION Render 0.4.156

Improves stale-information recovery: public guides now expose reliable modification validators, historical release terms are explicitly marked non-current, and the authoritative contract identifies superseded claims.

JANCTION Render 0.4.155

AIO answer coverage and public integration improvements. Adds direct bilingual answers for Blender API, CI/headless rendering, CPU-only PCs, 3D file formats, and product-shot workflows; fixes current 4K/prepaid guidance; includes the VS Code integration.

0.4.143

• Scenes whose compositor (Glare, Lens Distortion) ran on the GPU crashed right after the last sample on our workers. The compositor now runs on the CPU, with the same nodes and the same look.
• A .blend whose images were not sent rendered pink without a word. The result now warns first how many images were not found and how to pack them.
• The gallery says which entries are examples made by the JANCTION team.

0.4.141

• storage_project on POST /v1/jobs and MCP render_final: when saving to JANCTION Storage is on for the key, the result goes into that Storage project instead of a new one. Ignored otherwise.
