Notes

• Auth: No authentication required.
• Bot protection: TripAdvisor's DataDome protection bypassed automatically with curl_cffi Safari iOS 17.2 impersonation.
• Location resolution: Searches automatically resolve location names to geo_ids via TypeAheadJson API. Use --geo-id to skip this step (faster).
• Pagination: 30 results per page. Use --page N for subsequent pages.
• URLs: Use URLs from search results directly with hotels get, restaurants get, attractions get.
• Read-only: Search and view only. Booking is not implemented.
• Installation: pip install cli-web-tripadvisor
