"""Small-model-friendly local research gateway.
"""Small-model-friendly, privacy-first web research gateway.
The facade deliberately exposes only four read-only tools. It combines the
local TinySearch/SearXNG research pipeline with compact public API adapters,
normalizes all evidence into bounded JSON, and keeps discovery hints separate
from facts verified by crawled pages or primary APIs.
The facade deliberately exposes a small number of clearly separated read-only
tools. It combines local SearXNG discovery and TinySearch/Crawl4AI extraction
with bounded primary-source adapters. YouTube is handled as structured media
instead of as a normal web page, which avoids consent pages and search loops.
