That's great - I tried it out, and it looks like it's working.

This is valuable insight. I won't worry about creating headless browser
functionality yet. To begin, I'm going to make a command line tool that
just takes in a JavaScript file or HTML file and gives you some info
about it, like - does it have a web labels table? Does it have a magnet
link? What license is it under? etc.

The goal will be, as you mentioned, using this tool as a step in your
build process.
