## Overview

Web scraping extracts data from websites programmatically — for research,
monitoring, aggregation, or migration. Done responsibly, it's a legitimate
technique; done carelessly, it's a Terms-of-Service violation or a denial-
of-service attack. This skill covers the technical craft and the ethical/
legal boundaries together.

## When to use

- Extracting structured data from websites (prices, listings, articles)
- Choosing between HTTP scraping and headless browsers
- Handling pagination, infinite scroll, and JavaScript-rendered content
- Respecting robots.txt, rate limits, and terms of service
