}Notes
- since and until are UTC dates, and both ends are included. Without them you get the last 90 days.
- A point exists only when SOLARI collected the account, so gaps between points are normal.
- Most accounts have no points from late August 2025 to late September 2026. Recording resumed for most accounts on 2026-09-28.
- Check current.collected_at before treating current as today's numbers.
- This reads the catalog only. If the account is missing, call solari fetch instagram account username=… first. Recording starts from then; past values cannot be filled in.
