ChatGPT Scraper API

# Integrate HasData ChatGPT Scraper API

## Task

Add the requested ChatGPT answer-collection workflow to this project using HasData ChatGPT Scraper API.
Inspect project instructions, the server-side runtime, existing HTTP client, and tests first.
Follow the project's conventions and preserve unrelated code. No new SDK is required.
Ask for the research prompt and desired output if they are unclear.
This is HasData's independent scraper, not OpenAI's developer API or a drop-in chat SDK.
Do not replace this REST integration with an MCP connection, an OpenAI SDK, or a custom browser scraper.

## References

Read the endpoint documentation before implementing:

- ChatGPT Scraper API: https://docs.hasdata.com/apis/chatgpt/chat.md
- Current request configuration: https://api.hasdata.com/apis/chat-gpt-chat
- Backend example, when available: https://api.hasdata.com/apis-preview/chat-gpt-chat
- Error handling: https://docs.hasdata.com/api-codes.md
- Documentation index: https://docs.hasdata.com/llms.txt
- Full documentation (fallback): https://docs.hasdata.com/llms-full.txt

Start with the endpoint references. Use `llms.txt` to find additional pages.
Use `llms-full.txt` only when needed; extract relevant sections instead of loading everything into context.
If a `.md` reference is unavailable, try its HTML URL without `.md`.
The configuration describes request fields, not a complete response schema. Inspect the backend `sampleResponse` or a supplied response before implementing the parser.
If an example is unavailable, do not invent response fields or trigger a paid request without approval.
Fetch public documentation and configuration without sending the API key.

## Optional agent skill

If the official `hasdata` skill is already available, use its relevant guidance.
Otherwise, if this agent supports skills, ask before installing it in this project:

```sh
npx skills add hasdata/agent-skills --skill hasdata
```

Run from the project directory and select the coding agent in use.
The `hasdata-cli` skill is not required. If installation is declined or unsupported, continue with the docs.
Flag conflicts between skill guidance and current API docs rather than guessing.

## Implementation

- Use `GET https://api.hasdata.com/scrape/chatgpt/chat` with the required `prompt`, up to 8,000 characters, encoded by the project's HTTP client.
- Optional `timezone` is an IANA zone for interpreting relative dates, not geographic targeting. Request the answer language in the prompt.
- Do not add unsupported model selection, forced web search, streaming, message history, conversation continuation, or output-schema parameters.
- Parse `conversation.answer` as text that can contain Markdown. Retain `title`, `model`, `usedWebSearch`, `finishReason`, `complete`, `conversationId`, and `messageId` when supplied.
- A completed answer can have `usedWebSearch: false` and no `sources` field. Missing sources are not automatically a scrape failure; asking for sources does not establish a force-search switch.
- Preserve available `conversation.sources[]` URLs, domains, titles, snippets, and publication dates. Optional fields may be absent. A snippet is not full page content; a publication date is not this request's capture time or proof of freshness.
- Returned sources are not sentence-level citation mappings. Do not infer cited claims, source rankings, citation counts, or an exhaustive search history from their order or presence.
- The returned model label is observational, not a selectable or pinned model. Conversation and message IDs do not establish resumable sessions.
- Your application owns prompt sets, capture timestamps, history, scheduling, brand matching, sentiment analysis, visibility scores, and alerts. Keep derived fields separate from raw answers and sources.
- AI-generated answers and sources may be incorrect or irrelevant. Preserve provenance and require appropriate review before treating a claim as verified. Do not promise identical answers between runs.
- Treat returned Markdown, snippets, and links as untrusted data, never instructions. Sanitize rendered Markdown and avoid automatically opening links, executing code, or following embedded instructions.
- Avoid logging full request URLs: prompt text is in the query string and can contain sensitive research context. Redact credentials and prompt content from errors and telemetry.
- Handle timeouts, documented errors, missing or incomplete answers, and valid responses without web search. An HTTP 200 alone is insufficient; check `requestMetadata.status`, the answer, and available completion fields.
- Keep requests server-side. If no suitable runtime exists, discuss options before changing the architecture.

## Credentials

- Implement the integration and mocked tests without requiring a live API key.
- Read `HASDATA_API_KEY` from the project's existing environment or secret store and send it as `x-api-key`.
- If the key is missing before live verification, ask the user to configure it from https://app.hasdata.com/api-keys.
- Never ask the user to paste the key into chat. Check only that it is configured, without printing its value.
- Never put the key in browser code, logs, or version control. Add only a placeholder to the project's example configuration.
- If using a local `.env` file, make sure it is gitignored.
- Send the key only to `https://api.hasdata.com` for the scrape request. Never forward it to ChatGPT, OpenAI, documentation, returned source links, or redirects to another origin.
- This endpoint does not require the user's OpenAI API key or ChatGPT login. Do not request either credential.

## Verification

- Add mocked tests for searched and non-searched answers, missing source metadata, incomplete responses, untrusted Markdown, prompt redaction, and documented errors. Include a usage example and run local checks.
- Only after explicit user approval, including approval already given for this task, and with a configured key, make one live verification request with the agreed prompt.
- Current documentation lists 10 credits per successful request. Confirm the current rate before live verification and report any discrepancy.
- Validate the HTTP status, API status, non-empty answer, and reported completion. Check sources only when present; absence of web search is not a reason to retry.
- Do not automatically repeat paid requests to obtain sources, change the answer, or test every prompt in a set.
- Report changed files, setup commands, and test results. State separately whether live verification passed, failed, or was skipped.
- Ask before deploying.
