"""Search-stack visibility check.

The fleet shares one SearXNG instance (search) plus one extraction service
(Firecrawl).  A broken search stack used to fail silently: one engine answered
and nobody could tell that the other engines had stopped contributing, or that
an enabled engine was returning nothing at all without reporting an error.

This check makes those failures visible and non-zero:

  * runs two fixed queries against SearXNG; FAILS when fewer than two engines
    contribute to a query, printing the contributing engines and every
    ``unresponsive_engines`` entry;
  * FAILS when a known page cannot be extracted to non-empty markdown through
    Firecrawl;
  * reports every *silent zero* engine explicitly -- an engine that is enabled,
    is eligible for the query category, is not listed in
    ``unresponsive_engines``, and still contributed no results.

Exit code 0 = healthy, 1 = degraded, 2 = the check could not run at all.

Environment overrides (all optional):
  SEARXNG_URL         default http://192.168.68.7:8888
  FIRECRAWL_URL       default http://192.168.68.7:3002
  SEARCH_CHECK_QUERIES  comma-separated fixed queries
  SEARCH_CHECK_MIN_ENGINES  default 2
  SEARCH_CHECK_TIMEOUT  per-request timeout in seconds, default 25
  SEARCH_CHECK_EXTRACT_URL  page used for the extraction leg
  SEARCH_CHECK_ENGINES  comma-separated engine names the stack is expected to
                        run; a silent zero is reported for any of them that is
                        enabled but contributes nothing with no error
