"""Playwright scraper for live purplecarrot.com recipe pages.
Uses the slug inventory already in recipes_purplecarrot.parquet and fills in
the missing ingredients/instructions by hitting the live site directly.
Usage:
conda run -n cf python3 scripts/pipeline/purple_carrot/scrape_live.py \
[--out /Library/Assets/kiwi/pipeline/recipes_purplecarrot_live.parquet] \
[--delay 2.5] \
[--limit 20]
