v1.3.0

Highlights

• Akamai Bot Manager bypass - detects and resolves behavioral and sec-cpt interstitials across scraper tiers and the general HTTP/HTTPS proxy
• Self-healing browser pool - automatically reclaims stalled checkouts and recovers from hung Firefox close, launch, and restart operations
• Authenticated upstream proxies - correctly passes proxy credentials to Camoufox in Tier 3 and Tier 4
• Complete Tier 1 responses - fixes text and HTML responses being silently truncated to the 4 KiB challenge-detection preview
• Reliable health reporting - /health now returns HTTP 503 when no genuinely usable browser capacity remains
• Strict API validation - malformed /v1 and /scrape requests return clear HTTP 400 responses before tier execution
• Improved Docker deployments - forwards upstream proxy configuration, preserves architecture-specific Camoufox metadata, and provides safer browser-pool defaults
• Updated runtime stack - upgrades packages to their latest mutually compatible versions, including Camoufox JS 0.12.0
• Refreshed documentation and website - expands proxy, residential routing, integrations, architecture, deployment, and challenge-coverage information
