- Added category/rating/review/open/contact/photo filters and relevance/rating/review/name sorting.
- Added direct, Apify Residential, country, and custom proxy modes with stable sessions and bounded retries.
- Added clean empty-result behavior, atomic dataset writes, safe structural logs, challenge detection, and explicit `GOOGLE_SERP` rejection.
