Documented steps
POST https://api.browserbase.com/v1/sessions with X-BB-API-Key: <key>.
To use the default managed proxy set proxies: true.
For a specific region set proxies with type 'browserbase' and geolocation including country (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2, required), optional city, and optional 2-char US state which requires country US.
For an external proxy set proxies with type 'external' and a server URL, plus optional username and optional password for authenticated proxies.
Add domainPattern to any config to scope which domains use the proxy; use type 'none' to disable proxying for a pattern.

Known gotchas
US state is only valid with country US; other countries ignore it.
Multi-word city names must use spaces (e.g. New York), not hyphens.
proxyBytes on the session object tracks bytes used via the proxy and is billable.
domainPattern defaults to all domains when omitted.
