v0.4.0

What's new

• --no-follow-redirects flag: treat HTTP 3xx as OK without following the redirect chain. Fixes false positives from short links or affiliate URLs whose final destination blocks automated requests.
• README: document community.cloudflare.com as a known bot-hostile domain alongside Wikipedia and OpenAI.

v0.3.1

What's Changed

v0.3.1

• Fixed: Skipped section now always visible — `--only-broken` only hides OK links, not Skipped

v0.3.0

• Three-section report: Broken, OK, Skipped — skipped URLs are explicit, not hidden inside OK count
• Improved `--skip-pattern` docs with real-world examples

v0.2.0

• HEAD → GET fallback: tries HEAD first, falls back to GET on 403/405
• Global URL deduplication: same URL across multiple files checked once
• Retry once on transient 5xx errors or timeouts
• Report lists all files containing a broken URL

v0.1.1

• Fixed false positives from URLs inside fenced and inline code blocks
• Fixed false positives from URLs containing shell variables and backticks

v0.1.0

• Initial release: recursive markdown scanning, concurrent checks, SMTPS email, skip pattern, CI exit codes
