`apify run` does not simulate Standby mode. To test locally:

1. Start the HTTP server directly (e.g., `node src/main.js` or `python src/main.py`)
2. Send requests with curl/httpie to verify endpoints
3. Test the readiness probe: `curl -H "x-apify-container-server-readiness-probe: true" http://localhost:<port>/`
4. Deploy with `apify push` and test via the Standby URL. Local Standby URLs use the format `http://<username>--<actor-name>.localhost:8003/<path>?token=<APIFY_TOKEN>` (e.g., `http://meaningful-sand--standby-actor.localhost:8003?token=apify_api_...`)

2. Test the readiness probe: `curl -H "x-apify-container-server-readiness-probe: true" http://localhost:<port>/`
3. Send requests with curl/httpie to verify endpoints
