🔒 Proxy Behavior

The actor uses a smart 3-tier proxy escalation system:

1️⃣ Direct(no proxy) → impit browser impersonation
 ↓ If blocked
2️⃣ GOOGLE_SERP Datacenter → Apify's Google-optimized proxy
 ↓ If blocked
3️⃣ Residential Proxy → 3 retry attempts
 ↓ If all fail
❌ Skip this request,continuewith next query

Once escalated to residential, all remaining requests use residential proxy to maintain consistency.
