Summary

AI summary

Added Linkup, Parallel AI, and You.com search providers with tiered routing and per‑provider budget enforcement.

Full changelog

New search providers (3)

  • Linkup — monthly recurring (1,000 queries/mo), tier 1
  • Parallel AI — one-time credits (16,000 queries), tier 3
  • You.com — $100 credit, tier 3, also available as content extractor ($1/1k pages)

New extractors (2)

  • Crawl4AI — self-hosted JS rendering, no API cost. Install with pip install "argus-search[crawl4ai]"
  • You.com Contents API — $1/1k pages, gated by ARGUS_YOU_CONTENTS_ENABLED

Tier-based credit-aware routing

Providers sorted by credit type before dispatch:

  • Tier 0: SearXNG (free, unlimited) — always first
  • Tier 1: Brave, Tavily, Exa, Linkup (monthly recurring)
  • Tier 3: Serper, Parallel, You.com (one-time credits) — last resort

Mode-specific ordering preserved within each tier. Budget enforcement skips exhausted providers automatically.

Budget enforcement

All providers now have query-count budgets set in .env. When a provider's 30-day rolling usage hits its budget, it's skipped until the window resets.

Full changelog: 18 files changed, 758 insertions, 185 deletions. 173 tests passing.
