Restaurant Crosscheck CN

This skill is internally coherent but carries legal, privacy, and operational risks you should consider before installing or running it: - Legal/compliance: Both Dianping and Xiaohongshu explicitly disallow scraping in many contexts (the docs even note this). Use only for personal research and ensure you understand terms of service and local law before scraping. - Sensitive local state: The tool automates browser logins and saves session cookies locally (~/.local/share/restaurant-crosscheck/sessions). Those cookies act like authentication tokens — keep that directory private and delete/reset sessions if others can access your machine. - Proxies and cost: The instructions recommend residential proxy pools and rotating user agents for stable scraping. Residential proxy providers cost money and may require extra setup; avoid using third-party proxy credentials you don't control. - Operational footprint: Running the full version requires Playwright and will download browser binaries; on servers without GUI/appropriate environment, use the mock/simulated-data server mode instead. - Safety checklist before running: - Review the scripts (session_manager.py, fetch_*_real.py) yourself to confirm behavior. - Run in a single-user environment (not a shared/production server) or use the simulated mode for testing. - Protect the session directory (chmod 700) and delete sessions when done if you are concerned. - Consider whether you need real scraping or can rely on manual checks/official APIs for commercial use. If you want, I can point out where session files are created in the code, summarize exactly what the session_manager saves, or list the specific files the setup script will modify/create.
