⚠️ Limitations

• Discover returns max 30 results per query. This is a hard limit from Skool's discovery page — there is no pagination. Run multiple queries with different keywords to get broader coverage.
• No members list. Skool does not expose the full member list on public pages. You can only access the top 30-day contributors via community mode.
• No emails. Skool does not expose member email addresses on any public page.
• Private communities return metadata only. You can discover private communities (name, member count, price) but cannot scrape their posts or comments without membership.
• Post sorting is limited. Skool only supports newest (by creation date) and newest-cm (by most recent comment). There is no "most upvoted" sort available via the web UI.
• Data is public only. This scraper only accesses content visible to non-logged-in users on public Skool community pages.
