AegisCrawler
Record once, replay forever — a production-grade browser data-collection platform. A PageResearch Agent extension turns real interactions into humanized DSL rules, a Go server schedules lease-based tasks, and ScriptCat workers execute them in real browsers. Optional LLM rule enhancement with security scan + human diff review.

Could you build this?
Partial While the Go task scheduler and browser extension recorder are straightforward, building a reliable distributed crawler that uses real browsers, humanized DSL replays, and bypasses modern bot detection requires complex anti-detect engineering.
What it would actually take: The architecture comprises a Chrome extension to record DOM events into a custom DSL, a Go/PostgreSQL distributed worker queue managing task leases, and runner instances (via ScriptCat or Puppeteer/Playwright). The difficult engineering challenge lies in humanized action emulation (curved mouse paths, randomized timings, CDP fingerprint masking) to bypass Cloudflare and Akamai bot protections at production scale without constant manual intervention.
