      url
    ]);
    
    let output = '';
    
    proc.stdout.on('data', (data) => {
      output += data.toString();
    });
    
    proc.on('close', (code) => {
      if (code === 0) {
        try {
          // Extract JSON (last line)
          const lines = output.trim().split('\n');
          const json = JSON.parse(lines[lines.length - 1]);
          resolve(json);
        } catch (e) {
          reject(e);
        }
      } else {

## Troubleshooting

### Issue: Page Not Fully Loaded

**Solution:** Increase wait time
```bash
WAIT_TIME=20000 node scripts/playwright-stealth.js <URL>
```

### Issue: Still Blocked by Cloudflare

**Solution:** Use headful mode + manual wait
```bash
HEADLESS=false \
WAIT_TIME=30000 \
node scripts/playwright-stealth.js <URL>
```

### Issue: Requires Login

**Solution:** Manually login first, export cookies, then load
(Future feature, currently not supported)

## Performance Tips

1. **Parallel scraping:** Use `Promise.all()` or shell `&`
2. **Delay requests:** `sleep 5` to avoid IP blocking
3. **Use proxies:** Rotate IPs (future feature)
4. **Cache results:** Avoid duplicate scraping
