Improved

SDK — runs.call() and timeout supportruns.call() is a new synchronous shortcut that starts a run and waits for it to finish, returning the completed run object. runs.wait() and runs.call() now both accept a timeout parameter (seconds); a RunTimeout exception is raised if the run doesn’t finish in time. The LOBSTR_API_BASE environment variable lets you target a staging or self-hosted API without modifying your code.CLI — run start --timeout, run watch, and LOBSTR_API_BASElobstr run start now accepts --timeout (abort after N seconds) and --poll (polling interval). lobstr run watch streams live run events to the terminal. LOBSTR_API_BASE is supported as an environment variable alongside LOBSTR_TOKEN.MCP — expanded from 7 to 15 toolsThe lobstr.io MCP server now exposes 15 tools grouped into four categories: Discover & inspect, Run & monitor, Results, and Account. New tools: list_runs, abort_run, empty_scraper, get_results_url, check_credits, whoami, list_accounts, get_account. The account:read scope now covers connected platform accounts.Idealista Listings Search Export — property details add-onEnable get_property_details: true in your squid settings to collect the full property characteristics page for each listing: year built, orientation, heating type, energy certificate, community costs, constructed and usable area, furnished status, duplex/top-floor flags, and more (22 extra fields). Three new fields are now always populated regardless of this setting: has_parking_space, parking_space_included_in_price, and parking_space_price.Community Story Rewards — LinkedIn posts now eligibleYou can now submit a LinkedIn post to earn your quarterly bonus credits in addition to Reddit. Pass platform: "linkedin" and your post URL when submitting. LinkedIn comment permalinks are rejected — only standalone posts qualify. The reward amount is the same as for Reddit.

Fixed

  • Reddit Scraper — body and media_url fields are now correctly populated on subreddit-listing posts (were empty on that post type despite being set for others).
  • Reddit Scraper — tasks no longer crash when a comment thread is partially blocked; blocked comments are skipped and the rest of the thread is returned.
  • Instagram Reels Scraper — profiles were being skipped during iteration; the scraper now correctly processes all profiles.
  • Instagram Followers Scraper — fixed 401 authentication errors that were intermittently causing task failures.
  • Instagram Profile Scraper — fixed 401 Sentry errors.
  • Google Maps Reviews Scraper — proxy is now rotated on CurlError for place pages, reducing failed tasks caused by proxy blocks.
