Scrape LinkedIn company search
One page of a regular LinkedIn company search, addressed EITHER by filters (keywords, geo ids, industry ids, headcount buckets) OR by a pasted /search/results/companies/ url: exactly one of the two, never both, never neither. Rows are company previews, not people. Same engine and the same company rows either way; page on with paging.has_more. For revenue, growth, follower, Fortune and buying-signal facets use scrape_linkedin_search_sales_nav_companies instead: this engine has none of them.

Authorizations
Access token issued by gtm.service.id. Its access_identity claim carries team_sid, actor_sid and actor_type, and that team scope is authoritative.
Team scope for tokens that do not carry one. Ignored when the token already names a team.
Body
Request body of scrape_linkedin_search_companies.
Executor account (ln_ac_...). OPTIONAL everywhere on this surface. Given: the call runs on that account ONLY; a saturated or held scraping bucket refuses 429 bucket_saturated (with retry_after). Omitted: the service auto-picks one of your connected accounts with remaining capacity (SN verbs pick only Sales-Navigator seats; 422 no_connected_accounts when none is ready, 429 when all are at capacity).
18^ln_ac_Ledger replay guard: a repeat call with the same (team, key) returns the stored outcome; no re-execution. Recommended on every search run. The KEY ALONE decides: the probe does not compare arguments, so reusing one key after changing the arguments hands back the FIRST result. On the twelve search verbs that matters twice over, because switching a call from filters to url (or back) under one key replays instead of running the new search. New search, new key.
128EXCLUSIVE with filters: send url OR filters, never both (422) and never neither (422). A search URL built in the LinkedIn UI, and the escape hatch for everything the filter vocabulary cannot express. MUST start with https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/companies/ : a URL from another LinkedIn search screen is refused here and again by the backend (422 invalid_search_url), because running it would silently scrape the wrong thing.
2048^https:\/\/www\.linkedin\.com\/search\/results\/companies\/EXCLUSIVE with url: send filters OR url, never both (422) and never neither (422). Regular company-search filters. At least one member must be non-empty.
LinkedIn page number, default 1; ONE page per call, so re-call with page + 1 while paging.has_more.
