# SearXNG — PFI fleet meta-search. Deployed on nh3-docker (10.100.50.40:9996).
#
# ⚠ WHY NH3 AND NOT THE COLO. Measured 2026-09-03:
#     ana-docker egress  38.120.12.42   (datacenter) -> DuckDuckGo + Startpage CAPTCHA
#     nh3-docker egress  70.230.226.88  (residential) -> no CAPTCHA
#   Search engines gate datacenter ranges. Same reason the fleet keeps a
#   residential SOCKS5 egress proxy on nh3-dev for yt-dlp. Running the search
#   aggregator from a residential-egress site removes the problem at the source
#   rather than proxying around it.
#   UPDATE 2026-09-18: residential alone no longer sufficient — DDG + Startpage
#   now captcha even here. Tier A fix: scraped families removed, API-backed and
#   aggregator-tolerant engines kept. If Brave results are wanted, get a free
#   Brave Search API key and set `api_key` on the `braveapi` engine (inactive,
#   takes priority=0 when keyed) instead of returning to scraping.

      # Wikidata (an API engine, not scraped): Wikimedia answers this egress
      # with 403 (measured direct from the host, 6/6 searxng probes + a
      # manual sparql probe). Only feeds HTML infoboxes; keeping it meant a
      # permanent 'Suspended' entry in every response.

# Breadth note (v2 experiment): mojeek was re-enabled and is ALSO 403'd from
# this egress IP (3/3 probes + direct 403 from the host, with and without a
# browser UA). Re-adding breadth now needs API keys, not scraping: braveapi
# (free Brave Search API tier) and/or marginalia (free key) — both already
# present in the defaults, awaiting an api_key.
#
# v4 (2026-09-18): braveapi keyed. The key lives in the container env
# (compose .env, vault: nh3-docker/searxng-brave-api-key) and enters this file
# via SearXNG's !ENV tag — no secret in a git-tracked file. If the key line
# ever resolves empty, the engine silently drops to inactive: no error, just
# missing results. Check `unresponsive_engines`/`/config` if Brave vanishes.
#
# marginalia uses the public key (rate-limited but keyless-tier, safe to
# hardcode). A GLM web-search engine is possible as a custom JSON engine but
# needs a z.ai/bigmodel search key — not in the vault as of today.
engines:
  # ⚠ THE KEY BELOW IS COMMITTED ON PURPOSE. Operator decision, 2026-09-18:
  # this is a free-tier Brave Search API key on a rate-limited service of
  # marginal value — "if the service is useless, so is the key" — so it is not
  # worth the machinery that keeping it out of git would cost. Do not treat
  # this as licence for other credentials; everything else goes in the vault
  # (this key is also at nh3-docker/searxng-brave-api-key).
  #
  # ⚠ It cannot be un-committed. Rotation means issuing a NEW key at Brave and
  # replacing this line, never rewriting history — the repo is shared and
  # other sessions commit to it.
  #
  # An earlier attempt used `api_key: !ENV SEARXNG_BRAVE_API_KEY`. This build
  # has no !ENV YAML constructor, so the file failed to parse and the container
  # crash-looped ten times with search down fleet-wide. There is no env-var
  # path into this file: the loader reads only SEARXNG_SETTINGS_PATH, and the
  # entrypoint substitutes only `ultrasecretkey`. Literal or nothing.

  # ── Breadth: keyless engines that are ON by default ───────────────────
  # ⚠ THE BUG THIS FIXES. Of 55 general-category engines, only SEVEN were
  # enabled-by-default, and six of those are dictionary/translation/currency/
  # encyclopedia engines that return nothing for an ordinary web query. That
  # left `google cse` as the instance's ONLY general web engine — so one quota
  # exhaustion returned HTTP 200 with an empty results array and no error, for
  # every consumer. `disabled: false` is what puts an engine in the default
  # set; `inactive: false` only makes it selectable. The other 48 are
  # selectable-but-off, which an API client cannot change.
  #
  # Each of the five below was bang-probed on 2026-09-18 and returned real
  # results with no key: ddgw 10, bing 10, yep 20, yahoo 7, wiby 12.
  # Deliberately NOT added: mojeek, qwant, startpage, brave (scrapers — all
  # CAPTCHA or rate-limit this egress) and seznam (timeout).
