### Added
- **Stream Resolve Endpoint**: `GET /api/stream/resolve?id=&slug=` — Resolves actual m3u8/mp4 URLs from embed player URLs (vidtube.site → megaplay API → m3u8 playlist)
- **Stream Qualities Endpoint**: `GET /api/stream/qualities?url=` — Parses M3U8 playlists for available quality options with resolution, bandwidth, and URLs
+- **M3U8 Proxy Endpoint**: `GET /api/stream/proxy?url=` — Rewrites M3U8 playlists to proxy through API for CORS-free HLS playback
+- **TS Proxy Endpoint**: `GET /api/stream/ts-proxy?url=` — Proxies `.ts` video segments with proper `Content-Type: video/mp2t` and CORS headers
- **Stream Resolver Extractor**: Full pipeline for resolving actual video URLs from embed pages
- **M3U8 Quality Parser**: Parses master playlists to extract quality options sorted by resolution
- **Server Name Normalization**: Maps display names to clean identifiers (VidPlay-1 → vidplay, HD-1 → hd)

+- **Mirror Fallback**: All 22+ extractors now use `fetchWithMirror()` for consistent mirror fallback
+- **Mirror Helper**: 404 responses no longer mark mirrors as failed — only connection errors trigger failover
+- **Seasons Extractor**: Rewritten to extract from watch page sidebar (AJAX endpoints don't exist on source site)
+- **Watch Order Extractor**: Rewritten to extract from watch page sidebar trending/related sections
+- **Stream Info Extractor**: Now establishes session before AJAX calls, normalizes server names, adds type field
- **Code Deduplication**: Extracted shared list item parsing logic into `parseListItem.helper.js`, eliminating ~200 lines of duplicated code across 8+ extractors
- **Documentation**: All files follow strict documentation style — box-style headers, section separators, feature markers, JSDoc params/returns, inline notes, and module footers
- **Version**: Bumped to 2.2.0
- **Package**: Removed unused `cors` dependency (custom CORS middleware used instead)
+- **README**: Updated all endpoint counts, features, and streaming flow documentation

- **Unused Imports**: Removed unused `cheerio`, `axios`, `headers` imports from extractors that now use `fetchWithMirror`
+- **Watch Page Path**: Fixed `/api/watch` 500 error — path format changed from `/slug/ep` to `/slug/ep-N`
+- **Info Endpoint**: Now accepts both `?id=` and `?slug=` params for flexibility
+- **Status Names**: Fixed `/api/status/airing` 500 — added status name mapping (ongoing→currently-airing, completed→finished-airing)

+## Stream URL Resolution (v2.2.0)
+
+The `/api/stream` endpoint returns an **embed URL** (e.g., `vidtube.site/stream/...`). To get the **actual video URL** (m3u8/mp4), use the resolver:
+
+### Step 4: Resolve Embed URL to Video URL
+
+```bash
+# Resolve embed URL to actual stream URL
+curl "https://anikototvapi.vercel.app/api/stream/resolve?id=MTF1dkFtaW9BRTZPbzJJRElFZUZr..."
+```
+
+```json
+{
+ "success": true,
+ "results": {
+ "url": "https://vid-tube.site/hls/b32de9d4a3230c95f52948373e6e1549.m3u8",
+ "type": "hls",
+ "server": "HD-1",
+ "subtitles": []
+ }
+}
+```
+
+### Get Quality Options
+
+```bash
+curl "https://anikototvapi.vercel.app/api/stream/qualities?url=https://example.com/playlist.m3u8"
+```
+
+```json
+{
+ "success": true,
+ "results": {
+ "qualities": [
+ { "url": "https://example.com/360.m3u8", "quality": "360p", "width": 640, "height": 360 },
+ { "url": "https://example.com/720.m3u8", "quality": "720p", "width": 1280, "height": 720 }
+ ]
+ }
+}
+```
+
+### M3U8 Proxy (CORS-Free Playback)
+
+Browser video players often can't fetch M3U8 playlists directly due to CORS. Use the proxy:
+
+```bash
+# Proxy rewrites all relative URLs to go through our API
+curl "https://anikototvapi.vercel.app/api/stream/proxy?url=https://example.com/playlist.m3u8"
+```
+
+The proxy:
+1. Fetches the M3U8 playlist
+2. Rewrites relative `.m3u8` URLs → `https://anikototvapi.vercel.app/api/stream/proxy?url=...`
+3. Rewrites `.ts` segment URLs → `https://anikototvapi.vercel.app/api/stream/ts-proxy?url=...`
+4. Returns the rewritten M3U8 content with CORS headers
