From 0edbe6970a550cc02f6e6858653c6172a6b21f3a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: jehrr <79864894+jehrr@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2026 06:44:06 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Engines without a proxy no longer crash, and a page buys at most one solve - Selenium and pyppeteer read the proxy pool on a retry with no pool configured and exited 1 on a refused, empty or unloadable page; they now re-fetch through the same access path, as Playwright does. - Both captcha call sites per attempt go through one per-page allowance checked before any purchase (was 2 solves with no pool, up to 5 with a pool of four, against a limit of 1). - Playwright and pyppeteer pass the navigation's HTTP status to the classifier. - --pages/--concurrency 0 and negative --delay/--retry-delay/ --proxy-block-retries are usage errors; scraper_api_client rejects a negative --retries/--retry-delay. - diff_runs refuses runs of different listings (area, category, filters) unless --force, and warns when a run hit the result ceiling. - The credential scan matches exclusions inside the repo, fails on 0 files scanned, and reads .env copies and JSON/CSV/HTML. - README, Scraper API help and canary messages corrected; .gitignore covers page dumps and scratch directories by kind; private citations removed with a suite guard.
