Setup modes

This project is simple in one sense and a little messy in another.

The package itself is focused. The broader world around search and research workflows is not.

Basic use

The simplest path is just installing the package in Pi and using the tools as they exist today.

If all you want is the current package behavior, this is the setup that matters.

If you want to tune how tool output shows up in the transcript, see Presentation and settings.

Hosted-backed setups

Some of the open issues point toward hosted search providers.

That is where the project is headed, not something you should assume is fully wired into the default install today.

If you are evaluating the package early, check the issue tracker before assuming every provider-backed path is already there.

Self-hosted setups

The same goes for self-hosted search backends like SearXNG.

Those are a real direction for the project, but not something the current default package just turns on out of the box.

It is better to say that plainly now than to make the docs sound more finished than the project actually is.
