From 0765b60db4ee64cfb0969ca9c845c37d6480a555 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: kostas-jakeliunas-sb Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 15:34:53 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] [SCR-383] Auto-Mode (--mode auto / --max-cost) support Add Auto-Mode to the `scrape` command, mirroring the server-side beta feature. The API picks the cheapest scraping config that succeeds (cheap -> expensive, stops at first success) and charges only for the winning config. - scrape.py: `--mode` (Choice[auto]) + `--max-cost` (int) options; signature; pass-through to build_scrape_kwargs; validation guards (mode-auto vs render_js/premium_proxy/stealth_proxy/transparent_status_code incompatibility, max_cost requires mode=auto, max_cost >= 1 via _validate_range). - cli_utils.py: build_scrape_kwargs mode/max_cost; surface Spb-auto-cost header ("Auto Credit Cost") in write_output verbose block. - client.py: Client.scrape() mode/max_cost params (omitted when None). - Tests: TestModeParam + TestMaxCostParam (test_client.py) and TestModeAutoGuards command-level guard tests (test_cli.py). - Docs: SKILL.md reference/scrape/options.md (Auto-Mode section), README, CHANGELOG [1.4.5]; synced via sync-skills.sh. - Version bumped 1.4.4 -> 1.4.5 across all version-bearing files.
