Solutions

  1. Retry the search
  2. Remove --filter (changes scroll count) and retry to isolate
  3. Check for login/captcha interstitial replacing results
  4. Increase delayMs or reduce scroll times if the page is unstable

Example fix

// before
await page.autoScroll({ times: 2, delayMs: 1500 });
// after
await page.autoScroll({ times: 2, delayMs: 1500 }).catch(() => {});
Defensive patterns

Strategy: try-catch

Try / catch

try { await search(q); } catch (e) { if (/scroll failed/.test(e.message)) { /* continue: extraction may still find above-the-fold items */ } else throw e; }

Prevention

When it happens

Trigger: `coupang search <query>` where the autoScroll helper rejects — page closed mid-scroll, navigation triggered by the scroll, or the scroll helper's internal evaluate throws.

Common situations: Very long pages hitting memory limits; infinite-scroll that navigates; Coupang anti-bot interstitials replacing the results page mid-scroll.
