# `[2026-09-18]` `api_key: !ENV SEARXNG_BRAVE_API_KEY` in searxng settings

**`api_key: !ENV SEARXNG_BRAVE_API_KEY` in searxng settings** — this build has NO `!ENV` YAML constructor, so the file was unparseable and the container crash-looped ten times with fleet search down. There is no env-var path into that file at all: the loader reads only `SEARXNG_SETTINGS_PATH` and the entrypoint substitutes only `ultrasecretkey`. Literal or nothing.
