Pilot before scale
The safe sequence is deliberately boring. Confirm truth, change one thing, observe the real outcome, and stop when evidence or identity health deteriorates.
Preflight
Verify engine health, registered routes, residential proxies, ready accounts, Chrome path, and API key posture. Stop when a required dependency is unhealthy.
Baseline
Record local-pack rank, organic rank, geogrid, calls, conversions, target page, seasonality, and current volatility before changing behavior.
Approve
Name the property, query, city, target page, account pool, proxy geography, daily cap, schedule, stop conditions, and owner approval.
Pilot
Run one keyword, one property, and one city at low volume with natural pacing. Keep a comparable property untreated as a holdout.
Observe
Watch events, failures, account health, proxy health, dwell behavior, ranks, geogrids, calls, leads, and conversion quality.
Scale or stop
Increase slowly only when operational health and business evidence agree. Quarantine failing identities and preserve geo coherence.
Mode selection
Ghost
Trusted OS or ADB input for high-detection platforms. Desktop runs foreground and one session at a time.
Hybrid
OS input plus browser reads. Default fit for controlled Google search and GMB work.
Speed
Pure browser automation for lower-risk warmup and routine operations where speed matters.
Hard stops
- No residential proxy, no run.
- No ready account, no run.
- No baseline or attribution, no performance claim.
- No client approval, no client behavioral automation.
- Rotate the default API key before network exposure.
- Do not skip account warmup or bypass the encrypted account store.
