This product is an independent re-implementation. It contains no source code
copied from the projects below; it references their concepts, and re-implements
the algorithms it borrows in a different runtime (page-side DOM walkers driven
over CDP instead of Node-side HTML regexes). Two exceptions are declared
explicitly and honestly, because "clean-room, concepts only" would no longer be a
true statement after v0.10.0:

  1. Factual data — search-engine URL templates, SERP CSS selectors, and
     human-verification marker patterns (ids / classes / iframe URLs) were taken
     from the search & reading plugins listed below. These are facts about
     third-party web pages, not creative code, but they are attributed here.
  2. Idea-level ports — the page-side algorithms in page-read.js (main-content
     selection order, link-density threshold, paragraph-aware truncation,
     Markdown walker details, stable element refs, captcha triage) are
     independent DOM re-implementations of ideas found in those projects.

Design inspiration — the capability set (agent-driven real browser + live
watch-over panel with human takeover) was pioneered by:

which in turn vendors the ego-lite browser runtime:

v0.10.0 (web reading / structured scraping / in-browser search / human-verification
triage / calling-convention skill) distilled from these — all MIT:

  Copyright (c) 2026 dsh-read-url contributors
  https://github.com/2672243194/dsh-read-url  (MIT License)
  → main-content pick order, link-density threshold, noise blacklist,
    paragraph-aware truncation, Markdown walker details, JSON-LD fallbacks.
    (Its optional @mozilla/readability upgrade path is MPL-2.0 and was
    deliberately NOT used: this plugin adds no npm dependencies.)

  → `field -> "selector@attr"` scraping convention; human-verification marker
    set and its triage order; the "a clean result is not a guarantee" caveat.

  → stable element ids via WeakMap (never reused; stale refs fail loudly instead
    of pointing at a different element), accessible-name priority chain (never
    expose an input's value as its name, never echo password values), post-typing
    value read-back, and framing returned page text as untrusted data.

  → the skill-as-calling-convention structure (read-escalation ladder, one
    observable goal per step, per-failure recovery table, executable
    anti-patterns) that skills/browser-automation/SKILL.md is modelled on.

  → browser-usable search-engine URLs and selectors, the three-way empty-result
    triage (blocked / not-loaded / layout-changed), per-engine cooldown, and the
    deliberate rejections (no Google, no Bing RSS, no SearXNG json endpoint).
