Web Scraping

Extract data with the lightest reliable method first.

Choose the approach

Use
```
web_fetch
```
for simple public pages when the needed content is already in HTML.
Use
```
browser
```
when the site is dynamic, needs clicking, infinite scroll, filters, tabs, or login/session state.
Use
```
web_search
```
only to discover candidate pages when the target URL is unknown.

Default workflow

Identify the target site and exact fields to collect.
Test one page first.
Decide the extraction method:
- ```
web_fetch
```
  for readable article/listing text
- ```
browser snapshot
```
  for dynamic DOM inspection
Normalize the output into a stable schema.
If scraping multiple pages, avoid tight loops and serialize requests.
Deduplicate by URL or stable item id.
Save results in the workspace when the task is larger than a quick one-off.

Browser scraping pattern

Open the page.
Take a snapshot.
Interact only as needed: search, click filters, pagination, expand sections.
Re-snapshot after each meaningful state change.
Extract only the fields the user asked for.
Close tabs when finished.

Output guidance

Prefer one of these formats:

concise bullet summary
JSON array of objects
CSV/TSV when the user wants exportable rows

Use explicit keys, for example:

[
  {
    "title": "...",
    "url": "...",
    "source": "...",
    "date": "...",
    "summary": "..."
  }
]

Reliability rules

Do not invent missing fields.
If a site blocks access, say so and switch sources when appropriate.
For news/results pages, capture source + title + link at minimum.
For large jobs, checkpoint partial results to a workspace file.
Prefer fewer larger writes over many tiny writes.

Cleanup

Close browser tabs opened for scraping.
If you create state/output files, store them under the workspace and name them clearly.
