Boost Infinite-Scroll Override (DW, 2026-06-24)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boost AI Search & Discovery exposes NO API to flip pagination to infinite
scroll, and the account-level dashboard setting serves
paginationType:"default" (numbered) to the collection/search surfaces.
This snippet forces infinite scroll by rewriting Boost's own runtime config
object (window.boostSDAppConfig) BEFORE Boost's lazy bundle reads it.
TIMING — this MUST render in <head> IMMEDIATELY BEFORE {{ content_for_header }}.
Boost injects boostSDAppConfig via content_for_header app-embed scripts, so a
defineProperty setter installed *before* that injection intercepts the moment
Boost assigns the global. A theme asset (boost-sd-custom.js) loads on Boost's
own schedule and can run AFTER Boost has already read the config, so the
config-patch cannot live there — only the belt-and-suspenders fallbacks do.
Strategy (belt + suspenders):
1. defineProperty setter on window.boostSDAppConfig — patches on assignment.
2. If already defined (re-entry / SPA nav), patch immediately.
3. Short rAF/interval poll re-applies in case Boost replaces the object.
4. Patch every pagination knob found: generalSettings.* and
additionalElements.pagination.* across all surfaces.
