Audit remaining request fingerprint mismatches beyond timezone #9

Description

@peggyrayzis

Context

PR #6 fixed hardcoded New York timezone in X-Li-Track. Remaining fingerprint mismatches may still trigger anti-automation invalidation for some accounts.

Hypothesis

Other static headers/metadata (e.g., X-Li-Page-Instance, language, UA/session profile consistency) may still diverge from user session expectations.

Proposed work

  • Inventory all non-minimal headers used by command and endpoint type.
  • Compare against real browser HAR for the same account/session.
  • Reduce or make dynamic any fingerprint fields that do not need to be static.
  • Add regression tests for command-level header construction where practical.

Acceptance criteria

  • Header strategy documented with rationale per field.
  • No hardcoded region-specific values remain in command request metadata.
