Release notes

Every shipped change to the javinfo API, newest first.

  1. v0.6.4

    Find performers with the new idols API

    The new /idols endpoint searches over 100,000 performers by romaji, Japanese name, kana or a former stage name, and filters by cup, blood type, sign, birthplace, hair, tags, age or height. Searches that match nothing are free.

  2. v0.6.3

    FASTERRRRR javlibrary API

    javlibrary data now comes straight from its own catalog and stays up to date. It used to be slower than a snail. Now it's faster than light.

  3. v0.6.2

    Faster javdatabase results + sextb provider

    javdatabase and sextb are served from javinfo's own database for sub-second lookups; sextb joins as a new provider with metadata, page URL, and HLS stream.

  4. v0.6.0

    javinfo CLI and MCP open/serve — local LAN HLS

    A native javinfo CLI for movie lookups and local HLS play sessions. @javinfo/mcp 0.6 adds javinfo-open and javinfo-serve; both share the CLI's API key file.

  5. v0.5.2

    Preview video CDN — worldwide playback via cdn.javinfo.dev

    sampleUrl on /movie, /query, /random proxies via cdn.javinfo.dev for worldwide DMM previews, HTTP range seeking, edge caching; free-tier rate limits lowered.

  6. v0.5.0

    javlibrary provider — deep-catalog fallback on /movie and /query

    javlibrary joins the roster as the last-resort, browser-scraped source. /movie does code lookups; /query is keyword-only with num (no filters).

  7. v0.4.0

    FANZA + DMM split, /query filtering, javdb search, public /stats

    r18 splits into FANZA/DMM; /query adds filters, sorting, pagination; javdb joins as a search provider; keyless /stats exposes catalog counts; /movie costs half.

  8. v0.3.0

    MCP server, web dashboard, javdatabase provider, API redesign

    Four additions: the MCP server @javinfo/mcp, the web dashboard at app.javinfo.dev, the javdatabase provider, and the /query+/movie endpoint split.

  9. v0.2.0

    All providers on every tier

    Provider access is no longer tier-gated. The response schema changed, and the Free rate limit is now lower.

  10. v0.1.1

    missav provider

    Adds the missav provider with HLS streams, plus a higher Pro quota.

  11. v0.1.0

    Initial beta

    First public beta of the javinfo search API.
