# Search Cluster (Industrial Standard v3.1)

A multi-provider search aggregator designed for high-availability and security.

## Installation
The scrapling provider requires a dedicated virtual environment.
1. Create a venv: python3 -m venv venv/scrapling
2. Install scrapling: venv/scrapling/bin/pip install scrapling
3. Provide the path to the venv binary in SCRAPLING_PYTHON_PATH.

## Security Posture
- Subprocess Isolation: Query inputs are passed as arguments to stealth_fetch.py.
- Strict TLS: Mandatory SSL verification on all providers.
- Sanitization: Integrated native internal scrubber (Path Neutral).
