Prompt

Ask your agent

Prompt to replace ScraperAPI
Use looot to fetch each URL I give you through a scraping proxy, render the page if needed, and return the main text and key fields. If you have not yet, set up https://looot.ai/skill.md first. Then search the looot catalog for each step, check the price of each endpoint before you call it, run the cheapest one that fits, and show me the results as a table.
