-- **LLM 只在接入时用**：管理员在网站上填好列表页的地址，点「试抓」；抓取节点下一次领活时领到它，抓下来，让 LLM 认出列表、标题、日期和翻页在哪，把抓到的条目和生成的配置交回网站。管理员看过没问题再保存；之后每天按配置抓，不再问 LLM。
+- **LLM 只在接入时用**：管理员在网站上填好列表页的地址，点「试抓」；抓取节点下一次领活时领到它，有配置就按配置读，没有配置就先通用解析，取不到条目再让 LLM 认出列表、标题、日期和翻页在哪。生成的配置要在抓到的页面上实际读出条目，才交回网站供管理员采用；流程见[开发约定 §2.2](development.md#22-试抓)。管理员看过没问题再保存；之后每天按配置抓，不再问 LLM。
 - **试抓的流程**：管理员在来源管理页的表单里填好网址（以及要不要浏览器、已有的配置），点「试抓」，网站记一条试抓；页面显示「等抓取节点」，每隔几秒刷新，直到抓取节点交回结果。结果列出抓到的条目（标题、链接、日期）和生成的配置，失败的写原因。管理员看过点「采用」，网址、要不要浏览器和生成的配置填回表单，再保存来源：采用就是保存来源，配置改前改后记进操作日志；发起试抓也记一条。
 - **不硬闯**：要登录才能看的、有验证码的不抓，标成「暂时抓不了」并写明原因。只要求用浏览器打开的脚本挑战（比如瑞数的反爬）不算：页面是公开的，人用浏览器打开就能看，浏览器抓取按[开发约定 §2](development.md#2-抓取和判别)的设置通过，UA 照样写明鼠钟。
 - **已经遇到的**：电科计算机学院的官网用了瑞数的反爬，要用浏览器抓取（第 5.2 节）；浙大计算机学院的 HTTPS 连不上，只能用 HTTP，要写进配置。

 - `force_http` 默认 `false`，只有明确只能用 HTTP 的来源才设为 `true`；可单独配置 `{"force_http": true}`，对列表及同站翻页生效，不自动从 HTTPS 降级。

+- 只读列表第一页，不往回翻、不读正文和附件；结果交 `ProbeReport`，不写抓取记录。
+- 带了配置就按配置读，空对象也算配置；没带配置先通用解析，取不到条目才让 LLM 按 `Selectors` 生成选择器，在同一份页面上再解析一遍，取到条目才交回生成的配置。
+- `browser` 和 `force_http` 由管理员定，模型只生成选择器。
+- 失败原因和一轮的写法相同，模型这一步写成「试抓失败: 错误码」；调用过模型的，失败时也交用量。
+- 发给模型的 HTML 只清空脚本和样式的内容，元素的层级和位置不变，位置 XPath 照样能用；超过 20 万字符的页面直接失败，不截断。

 - 时刻存成带时区的时间戳；通知里写的"某天几点"一律按北京时间理解，时间值和换算的规则见[总体设计 §8.2](design.md#82-抽取)。

 - 抓取记关键事实：来源和网址、抓取方式、状态码、跳转、耗时、失败类别，以及模型的名称、用量和耗时。每页只写几条，不逐个链接地记。
 - 不写正文、附件内容、模型的输入和输出、用户的数据和任何密钥；外部服务返回的错误可能夹带这些内容，只记失败类别。公开网页的网址可以写。
 - 每行一个 JSON 对象，写法和网站的一样。一轮抓取的日志都带来源编号 `source_id` 和开始时间 `started_at`，和抓取看板上的那一轮对得上。
+- 试抓的日志带 `probe_id`。
