The OpenClaw Scraping Stack

The 5-layer browser pipeline, the anti-bot countermeasure matrix, the CAPTCHA solver patterns, and the legal perimeter most guides skip.

• The 5-layer resistance ladder, the 8 countermeasure matrix, and the cadence card that keeps your scraper out of the Cloudflare 1015 bucket
• Path A (patchright + residential + solver) vs Path B (Scraper API + SerpApi). The architecture choice nobody else lays out cleanly
• The 4-question legal check, the 6-mode error decision tree, and the 35-line pre-flight checklist for unattended overnight runs
