Root cause: threading.Lock held indefinitely when Playwright browser
hangs inside run_in_executor (finally never fires from the async side).
Fixes:
- _acquire_scrape_lock/_release_scrape_lock track monotonic timestamp
- POST /competitors/scrape/reset force-releases the lock and marks any
running batch as interrupted (queue rows stay intact for retry)
- GET /competitors/status now includes lock_held_seconds
- APScheduler watchdog job every 30 min auto-releases if held >3h
- Settings → Scraper Proxy tab shows live lock status (green/amber)
with a Force Reset button requiring confirmation

Direct-rates sub-row in Market View was dead: the frontend filters
competitors on direct_hotel_id but /matrix and /hotels never returned it.
Add direct_hotel_id to both queries (+ HotelResponse), and only render the
"Direct" sub-row when a hotel actually has a non-null direct rate (was
rendering all-dashes on an empty {} object).
Remove the pause-on-block flow entirely — dormant since rotate-on-block
replaced it (nothing set booking_scraper_paused=true after set_scraper_paused
was dropped): is_scraper_paused, /config/unpause, the /scrape paused guard,
ScraperStatusResponse.paused/pause_until, and the frontend Paused badge +
Unpause button. Trim now-unused datetime import.

Proxy config, DataImpulse sticky-session username syntax, and Playwright/
httpx proxy builders now live in one place (services/proxy.py) instead of
being duplicated across the Booking.com backend and the /config/proxy test
endpoint. Both scrapers consume it.
- services/proxy.py: load_config/normalize (DB-authoritative, env fallback),
new_session_id, username, playwright_proxy, httpx_proxy_url
- PlaywrightLocalBackend delegates proxy building to the module
- get_scraper_backend factory uses proxy.load_config (one resolution path)
- test_proxy_config endpoint uses the shared URL builder; httpx proxies= ->
proxy= (forward-compatible, 0.28-safe)
- Direct booking-engine scraper (httpx) can now route through the same proxy,
gated by the direct_scraper_use_proxy flag (default off, plumbing ready)
Dead code removed: set_scraper_paused (never called — rotate-on-block
replaced pause-on-block), get_competitor_matrix / get_hotels_list /
update_hotel_tier (endpoints have their own SQL), unused PROXY_KEYS tuple.

Fan a scrape run out across N workers, each with its own DB session and
its own scraper backend — and since every backend picks a random sticky
session id, each worker scrapes from a distinct residential IP. Dates are
interleaved across workers so each covers a spread of the range. Cuts a
150-date batch from ~30-45 min to ~12-15 min at 3 workers.
- booking_scraper_concurrency config key (default 3); Settings → Scraper
Proxy has a "Parallel workers" field
- Forced to 1 when the proxy is off (N workers would share one IP and
hammer it) or when there's a single date
- Both manual and queue paths routed through _scrape_dates_concurrent;
workers mark their own queue items
- Per-worker rotate-on-block replaces the old global pause-on-block

The location_search_url column existed but was dead — the scraper always
rebuilt the URL from the free-text location name. Now the Location
Configuration form takes a "Booking.com search URL" field: paste the
address-bar URL from a real search and the scraper lifts ss/dest_id/
dest_type from it (the most reliable destination pin). Falls back to
dest_id, then plain name. Server also extracts dest_id from the URL for
the column and derives a display name from ss when none is typed.

Free-text ss= destination resolution is non-deterministic: tonight's
30-day run resolved "Stow on the Wold" to St. Wolfgang, Austria for 8 of
30 dates, saving Salzkammergut hotel rates into the matrix. dest_id +
dest_type=city in the search URL pins the destination.
- booking_scrape_config gains a dest_id column (idempotent ALTER)
- scrape_location_search/_build_search_url thread dest_id through
- /config/location accepts dest_id

- New "Scraper Proxy" tab: enable toggle, host/port/username/password/
country, Save, and a Test Connection button that reports the live exit
IP + country through the proxy
- Backend proxy config now lives in system_config (DB authoritative when
booking_proxy_enabled is set; BOOKING_PROXY_* env vars are the fallback)
- Dedicated /config/proxy GET/POST/test endpoints; password is write-only
(never returned, blank keeps the stored value) and masked in /config/system
- Surface proxy status keys in the read-only System tab

Concurrent manual scrapes were interleaving (two Chromium sessions on one
LXC) causing the page timeouts behind partial results. SCRAPE_LOCK guards
run_manual_scrape and process_queue; the trigger endpoint returns 409 when
busy, and the frontend keeps the job queued and retries after 30s.

A page-load timeout was logged and skipped, so a scrape could 'succeed'
with only page 1 of results — and the not_listed flagging then marked
every page-2 hotel absent, suppressing their last known rates.
- ScraperResult now tracks pages_requested/pages_ok
- scrape_date skips not_listed flagging when pages failed or when the
scrape saw <60% of the date's 7-day coverage baseline; scraped rates
are still saved, unseen hotels keep last known rate + scrape time

Location-search results aren't a fixed hotel set — a sold-out hotel drops
out and its last 'available' rate would remain the latest row for that
date, reading as a live price and skewing market averages. On each
successful per-date scrape, insert a NULL-rate 'not_listed' row for every
active hotel missing from the results (skipped if the parse found nothing,
which indicates scraper fault not absence). Failed/blocked scrapes write
nothing, so genuinely-stale data remains distinguishable by scraped_at.
Also: fix the DOW analysis to pick latest-then-filter so a not_listed
latest row drops the date instead of resurfacing an older rate, and widen
booking_com_id to VARCHAR(255) (some Booking slugs exceed 50 chars).

Scraped room descriptions exceed VARCHAR(100) (StringDataRightTruncation),
and the failed insert poisoned the transaction so every subsequent save in
the batch died with InFailedSqlTransaction — scrapes reported success with
0 rows saved. Widen the column (with ALTER for existing tables) and roll
back after a failed save.
