Raw observations

Immutable, compressed JSONL snapshots preserve product identity, catalog attributes, price, availability, source, and observation time.

Derived intelligence

Adjacent snapshots produce movements, churn, trends, volatility, promotions, and conservative robust outlier flags.

Safety before publication

Robots rules, minimum coverage, valid-price, overlap, and product-count gates prevent partial crawls from replacing a healthy baseline.

Open methodology

The repository includes its schema, limitations, tests, workflow, and machine-readable weekly summary. No account credentials or private APIs are used.
