+# Web plugin
+
+The existing `web_search` and `web_fetch` contracts are shared by both search
+providers. A trimmed, non-empty `braveSearchApiKey` selects Brave. An absent or
+blank key selects Light. Provider selection happens when the plugin loads;
+Brave failures never trigger a second search through Light.
+
+## Light search
+
+Light retrieves public origin pages, publisher feeds, and sitemaps from a
+bundled source catalog. It discovers links, fetches relevant pages, and ranks
+their actual content locally. It uses no external search API, hosted index,
+proxy search engine, browser, background process, or persistent database.
+`htmlparser2` is a local parsing dependency, with no remote service.
+
+The catalog contains Hebrew and English reference, government, news, science,
+and technology sources. Coverage depends on accessible content in those
+sources. Discovery is confined to each source's admitted origins; redirects
+remain confined to the configured catalog. A website can block a request,
+require JavaScript, or publish content larger than the response limit.
+
+The implementation is split by responsibility:
+
+| Module                              | Responsibility                                                  |
+| ----------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `source/search-service-selector.ts` | Choose Brave or Light without changing tool schemas             |
+| `source/light/config.ts`            | Validate bounded defaults and optional plugin settings          |
+| `source/light/sources/`             | Versioned source catalog and query-based source selection       |
+| `source/light/crawl/`               | Public transport, robots rules, deadlines, concurrency, budgets |
+| `source/light/discovery/`           | Bounded HTML, RSS, Atom, and sitemap parsing                    |
+| `source/light/documents/`           | Decoding, extraction, cache policy, completed-document cache    |
+| `source/light/ranking/`             | Local lexical relevance and snippets                            |
+| `source/light/search-frontier.ts`   | Fair admission and scheduling across sources and queries        |
+| `source/light/search-collection.ts` | Coordinate discovery and collect usable evidence                |
+| `source/light/search-service.ts`    | Assemble the existing search result contract                    |
+| `source/light/search-metadata.ts`   | Scope, freshness, and bounded evidence presentation             |
+
+The runtime loader, SDK, role orchestration, and `web_fetch` implementation do
+not need special knowledge of Light. Optional settings use the existing
+plugin manifest `defaults.light` projection; there are no new runtime JSON
+settings. An omitted `light` object uses built-in defaults. Invalid Light
+settings are checked only on its first search, so they do not disable Brave
+or `web_fetch`. Source overrides receive a distinct corpus identifier.
+
+## Default bounds and freshness
+
+| Bound                                     | Default                                              |
+| ----------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
+| Queries                                   | Up to 5, each 400 characters and 50 words            |
+| Sources selected for live discovery       | Up to 6 across the invocation                        |
+| HTTP hops, including robots and redirects | 24 across the invocation                             |
+| Concurrent requests                       | 3 per plugin instance, at most 1 per origin          |
+| Stop starting new HTTP hops               | After 20 seconds                                     |
+| Hard deadline                             | 30 seconds; timeout is an error                      |
+| Response size                             | 512 KiB encoded and 512 KiB decoded                  |
+| Aggregate response data                   | 8 MiB encoded and 8 MiB decoded, separately          |
+| Discovery                                 | 256 candidates, depth 2, at most 4 sitemaps          |
+| Completed-document cache                  | 500 documents, 16 MiB of serialized content          |
+| Feed/sitemap cache lifetime               | At most 5 minutes                                    |
+| Page cache lifetime                       | At most 30 minutes                                   |
+| Robots cache                              | At most 24 hours, 64 origins, 4 MiB serialized rules |
+
+Origin cache directives can shorten document lifetimes or prevent storage.
+Freshness honors `Age`, `Date`, and `Expires`; an explicit `max-age` takes
+precedence over `Expires`. Incomplete robots responses block crawling.
+HTML `noindex` and `none` directives exclude pages from search results and caching;
+link following separately honors `nofollow`. Declared text encodings are
+decoded through a bounded allowlist before extracting text or links.
+Expired cache records are excluded at result assembly. Partial documents are
+usable evidence but are not cached. Records fetched in the current invocation
+remain usable even when the origin specifies `no-store`. Retrieved timestamps
+remain unchanged on cache hits. Separate calls share only completed records
+and origin concurrency limits; cancellation and crawl budgets are independent.
+The cache bounds describe stored content, not total process heap usage.
+Failed decompression attempts consume their output allowance from the decoded
+byte budget, because synchronous decoders do not expose partial output sizes.
+
+Light returns normal search hits and the existing evidence-quality coverage
+score. Optional `eventMeta.lightSearch` records the source set, selected and
+consulted sources, stop reason, request/byte counts, bounded source errors, and
+per-result retrieval dates. Source IDs may include fresh cached evidence in
+addition to sources selected for live discovery. Declared page publication
+and modification dates are separate from retrieval dates. Feed or sitemap
+dates are discovery hints, not verified page publication dates.
+
+A healthy search with no matches succeeds with zero hits. A budget-limited
+search returns available results and its stop reason. A completed search in
+which every attempted source failed returns `web_search_sources_unavailable`
+with structured source diagnostics. Cancellation and the hard deadline remain
+errors. All source text and metadata remain passive, untrusted evidence with
+`volatile_external` / `carryPolicy: never` semantics.
+
+## Source presentation receipts
+
+Both search providers and `web_fetch` add optional `eventMeta.webSources`
+version 1 metadata for clients. Each bounded entry includes a title and URL,
+an optional original URL after a redirect, retrieval status, and presentation
+status (`omitted`, `reference`, `snippet`, or `content`). `contentTruncated`
+records extraction, per-source, and final-output clipping. Presentation is
+calculated from the final bounded tool output, including UTF-8 byte limits;
+successfully fetching a page does not imply that its content fit in that output.
+If receipt metadata would exceed the existing plugin result byte limit,
+`omittedSourceCount` reports entries left out of the receipt, independently of
+their visibility in tool output. Existing output and metadata take priority;
+an envelope with no room for even an empty receipt keeps its prior shape.
+
+These receipts describe evidence returned by the tool. They do not prove that
+a later model invocation retained, read, or cited it. Titles and URLs remain
+untrusted passive data. Existing output text, tool schemas, event metadata,
+and failure behavior are preserved; clients that do not use receipts can
+continue to ignore the optional field. Favicons belong to client presentation
+and are not fetched by the plugin or added to its evidence text.
+
+## Verification
+
+Focused deterministic tests live in
+`src/runtime/__tests__/web-light-search/`; existing Brave, fetch, and public
+network tests remain regression gates. The packed-package probe executes the
+real plugin bundle against offline origin fixtures, including empty-cache
+discovery of a URL absent from the catalog. It does not require a search key,
+external network, or model invocation.
+
+Run `npm run build:plugins` followed by `npm run validate` from the repository
+root. Actual source availability is a separate bounded direct-HTTP check;
+model/client acceptance uses the maintained, separately authorized live smoke.
