03.06.1
Problem
Most scraping code dies the first time a site changes markup, and the failure is silent.
03.06.2
Approach
Selectors are declared as data with a fallback chain. A structural change trips a check instead of writing empty rows.
03.06.3
Outcome
Runs unattended, and reports what it could not find rather than skipping it.
