# Changelog

- Removed deprecated tag api samples.
- Added samples for `json_rpc`, `market_history_api`, `rc_api`, `reputation_api`. With these changes, we have at least one sample for each plugin.
- CLI command (`hived_rpcs_scanner`) exits with a non-zero status code if one of the endpoints fail. Useful for CI/CD pipelines and smoke tests.
