Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

travel-hotel-scraping scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 57 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Travel & Hotel Scraping

Getting prices, ratings, availability, and amenities off travel and hospitality sites — hotels, rentals, attractions, and car-sharing marketplaces. Typical jobs: rate/price monitoring, competitive pricing, availability tracking, and review/ranking tracking.

The reality: OTAs are anti-bot-heavy

Online travel agencies are among the hardest targets on the web. Booking.com fronts its pages with AWS WAF; TripAdvisor runs aggressive anti-bot defenses; Trip.com/Ctrip and Turo render most pricing client-side. Plain HTTP almost always gets a challenge page, so the common working path is a stealth browser (Camoufox) + residential proxy — see anti-bot-scraping for the bypass details.

The fields that matter across these sites are consistent: name, price (often per night), rating, review count, location, star level, and amenities — plus availability for given dates and guest counts.

Ready-made scrapers

Anti-bot maintenance on these targets is constant. Before building, check whether a maintained scraper already covers what you need. Each is billed pay-per-result (free tier included):

Target Scraper From Notes
Booking.com Booking.com Hotels $0.008/result prices/ratings/amenities by destination + dates + guests
Trip.com / Ctrip Trip.com / Ctrip Hotels $0.02/result nightly prices, ratings, availability
TripAdvisor TripAdvisor $0.008/result hotels/restaurants/attractions, rankings, reviews
Turo Turo $0.008/result car-rental marketplace, daily/weekly/monthly pricing, host info

Run one

Each scraper runs from the command line and returns JSON rows. Example with the Booking.com scraper:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/thirdwatch~booking-hotel-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "destination": "Lisbon",
    "checkIn": "2026-08-01",
    "checkOut": "2026-08-04",
    "guests": 2,
    "maxResults": 25
  }'

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
