Open WebSearch Maintainer

Use this skill when modifying the open-websearch codebase itself.

If this skill and the current repository behavior disagree, trust the repository code, tests, and intended change scope, then update the skill or docs before finishing.

First classify the change

• Engine change: new engine, engine parsing, engine pagination, anti-bot handling.
• Network change: proxy, TLS, request builder, Playwright interaction, browser fallback.
• Tool surface change: MCP tool registration, schema, engine normalization, config exposure.
• Validation-only change: tests, docs, or release hygiene when no code-path behavior changes are intended.

Use this classification as the execution entrypoint. Start by choosing one category, load only the checklist that matches it, and expand scope only when the changed code path actually crosses that boundary.

Scope discipline
