+## Component Details
+
+### 1. Release Pipeline (release.yml)
+
+#### Purpose
+Fast publication of Python package and GitHub release.
+
+#### Input
+- **Trigger**: Git tag matching `v*` (excluding `test-v*`)
+- **Example**: `v1.2.3`
+
+#### Processing Stages
+
+##### Stage 1: Version Extraction
+```bash
+Input:  refs/tags/v1.2.3
+Output: VERSION=1.2.3
+```
+
+**Implementation**:
+```bash
+TAG_VERSION=${GITHUB_REF#refs/tags/v}  # Remove 'refs/tags/v' prefix
+echo "VERSION=$TAG_VERSION" >> $GITHUB_OUTPUT
+```
+
+##### Stage 2: Version Validation
+```bash
+Input:  TAG_VERSION=1.2.3
+Check:  crawl4ai/__version__.py contains __version__ = "1.2.3"
+Output: Pass/Fail
+```
+
+**Implementation**:
+```bash
+PACKAGE_VERSION=$(python -c "from crawl4ai.__version__ import __version__; print(__version__)")
+if [ "$TAG_VERSION" != "$PACKAGE_VERSION" ]; then
+  exit 1
+fi
+```
+
+##### Stage 3: Package Build
+```bash
+Input:  Source code + pyproject.toml
+Output: dist/crawl4ai-1.2.3.tar.gz
+        dist/crawl4ai-1.2.3-py3-none-any.whl
+```
+
+**Implementation**:
+```bash
+python -m build
+# Uses build backend defined in pyproject.toml
+```
+
+##### Stage 4: PyPI Upload
+```bash
+Input:  dist/*.{tar.gz,whl}
+Auth:   PYPI_TOKEN
+Output: Package published to PyPI
+```
+
+**Implementation**:
+```bash
+twine upload dist/*
+# Environment:
+#   TWINE_USERNAME: __token__
+#   TWINE_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.PYPI_TOKEN }}
+```
+
+##### Stage 5: GitHub Release Creation
+```bash
+Input:  Tag: v1.2.3
+        Body: Markdown content
+Output: Published GitHub release
+```
+
+**Implementation**:
+```yaml
+uses: softprops/action-gh-release@v2
+with:
+  tag_name: v1.2.3
+  name: Release v1.2.3
+  body: |
+    Installation instructions and changelog
+  draft: false
+  prerelease: false
+```
+
+#### Output
+- **PyPI Package**: https://pypi.org/project/crawl4ai/1.2.3/
+- **GitHub Release**: Published release on repository
+- **Event**: `release.published` (triggers Docker workflow)
+
+#### Timeline
+```
+0:00 - Tag pushed
+0:01 - Checkout + Python setup
+0:02 - Version validation
+0:03 - Package build
+0:04 - PyPI upload starts
+0:06 - PyPI upload complete
+0:07 - GitHub release created
+0:08 - Workflow complete
+```
+
+---
+
+### 2. Docker Release Pipeline (docker-release.yml)
+
+#### Purpose
+Build and publish multi-architecture Docker images.
+
+#### Inputs
+
+##### Input 1: Release Event (Automatic)
+```yaml
+Event: release.published
+Data:  github.event.release.tag_name = "v1.2.3"
+```
+
+##### Input 2: Docker Rebuild Tag (Manual)
+```yaml
+Tag: docker-rebuild-v1.2.3
+```
+
+#### Processing Stages
+
+##### Stage 1: Version Detection
+```bash
+# From release event:
+VERSION = github.event.release.tag_name.strip("v")
+# Result: "1.2.3"
+
+# From rebuild tag:
+VERSION = GITHUB_REF.replace("refs/tags/docker-rebuild-v", "")
+# Result: "1.2.3"
+```
+
+##### Stage 2: Semantic Version Parsing
+```bash
+Input:  VERSION=1.2.3
+Output: MAJOR=1
+        MINOR=1.2
+        PATCH=3 (implicit)
+```
+
+**Implementation**:
+```bash
+MAJOR=$(echo $VERSION | cut -d. -f1)    # Extract first component
+MINOR=$(echo $VERSION | cut -d. -f1-2)  # Extract first two components
+```
+
+##### Stage 3: Multi-Architecture Setup
+```yaml
+Setup:
+  - Docker Buildx (multi-platform builder)
+  - QEMU (ARM emulation on x86)
+
+Platforms:
+  - linux/amd64 (x86_64)
+  - linux/arm64 (aarch64)
+```
+
+**Architecture**:
+```
+GitHub Runner (linux/amd64)
+  ├─ Buildx Builder
+  │   ├─ Native: Build linux/amd64 image
+  │   └─ QEMU: Emulate ARM to build linux/arm64 image
+  └─ Generate manifest list (points to both images)
+```
+
+##### Stage 4: Docker Hub Authentication
+```bash
+Input:  DOCKER_USERNAME
+        DOCKER_TOKEN
+Output: Authenticated Docker client
+```
+
+##### Stage 5: Build with Cache
+```yaml
+Cache Configuration:
+  cache-from: type=gha           # Read from GitHub Actions cache
+  cache-to: type=gha,mode=max    # Write all layers
+
+Cache Key Components:
+  - Workflow file path
+  - Branch name
+  - Architecture (amd64/arm64)
+```
+
+**Cache Hierarchy**:
+```
+Cache Entry: main/docker-release.yml/linux-amd64
+  ├─ Layer: sha256:abc123... (FROM python:3.12)
+  ├─ Layer: sha256:def456... (RUN apt-get update)
+  ├─ Layer: sha256:ghi789... (COPY requirements.txt)
+  ├─ Layer: sha256:jkl012... (RUN pip install)
+  └─ Layer: sha256:mno345... (COPY . /app)
+
+Cache Hit/Miss Logic:
+  - If layer input unchanged → cache hit → skip build
+  - If layer input changed → cache miss → rebuild + all subsequent layers
+```
+
+##### Stage 6: Tag Generation
+```bash
+Input:  VERSION=1.2.3, MAJOR=1, MINOR=1.2
+
+Output Tags:
+  - unclecode/crawl4ai:1.2.3    (exact version)
+  - unclecode/crawl4ai:1.2      (minor version)
+  - unclecode/crawl4ai:1        (major version)
+  - unclecode/crawl4ai:latest   (latest stable)
+```
+
+**Tag Strategy**:
+- All tags point to same image SHA
+- Users can pin to desired stability level
+- Pushing new version updates `1`, `1.2`, and `latest` automatically
+
+##### Stage 7: Push to Registry
+```bash
+For each tag:
+  For each platform (amd64, arm64):
+    Push image to Docker Hub
+
+Create manifest list:
+  Manifest: unclecode/crawl4ai:1.2.3
+    ├─ linux/amd64: sha256:abc...
+    └─ linux/arm64: sha256:def...
+
+Docker CLI automatically selects correct platform on pull
+```
+
+#### Output
+- **Docker Images**: 4 tags × 2 platforms = 8 image variants + 4 manifests
+- **Docker Hub**: https://hub.docker.com/r/unclecode/crawl4ai/tags
+
+#### Timeline
+
+**Cold Cache (First Build)**:
+```
+0:00 - Release event received
+0:01 - Checkout + Buildx setup
+0:02 - Docker Hub auth
+0:03 - Start build (amd64)
+0:08 - Complete amd64 build
+0:09 - Start build (arm64)
+0:14 - Complete arm64 build
+0:15 - Generate manifests
+0:16 - Push all tags
+0:17 - Workflow complete
+```
+
+**Warm Cache (Code Change Only)**:
+```
+0:00 - Release event received
+0:01 - Checkout + Buildx setup
+0:02 - Docker Hub auth
+0:03 - Start build (amd64) - cache hit for layers 1-4
+0:04 - Complete amd64 build (only layer 5 rebuilt)
+0:05 - Start build (arm64) - cache hit for layers 1-4
+0:06 - Complete arm64 build (only layer 5 rebuilt)
+0:07 - Generate manifests
+0:08 - Push all tags
+0:09 - Workflow complete

+## Security Architecture
+
+### Threat Model
+
+#### Threats Mitigated
+
+1. **Secret Exposure**
+   - Mitigation: GitHub Actions secret masking
+   - Evidence: Secrets never appear in logs
+
+2. **Unauthorized Package Upload**
+   - Mitigation: Scoped PyPI tokens
+   - Evidence: Token limited to `crawl4ai` project
+
+3. **Man-in-the-Middle**
+   - Mitigation: HTTPS for all API calls
+   - Evidence: PyPI, Docker Hub, GitHub all use TLS
+
+4. **Supply Chain Tampering**
+   - Mitigation: Immutable artifacts, content checksums
+   - Evidence: PyPI stores SHA256, Docker uses content-addressable storage
+
+#### Trust Boundaries

+### Secret Management
+
+#### Secret Lifecycle
+
+```
+Creation (Developer)
+  │
+  ├─► PyPI: Create API token (scoped to project)
+  ├─► Docker Hub: Create access token (read/write)
+  │
+  ▼
+Storage (GitHub)

+  ├─► Encrypted at rest (AES-256)
+  ├─► Access controlled (repo-scoped)
+  │
+  ▼
+Usage (Workflow)

+## Performance Characteristics
+
+### Release Pipeline Performance
+
+| Metric | Value | Notes |
+|--------|-------|-------|
+| Cold start | ~2-3 min | First run on new runner |
+| Warm start | ~2-3 min | Minimal caching benefit |
+| PyPI upload | ~30-60 sec | Network-bound |
+| Package build | ~30 sec | CPU-bound |
+| Parallelization | None | Sequential by design |
+
+### Docker Pipeline Performance
+
+| Metric | Cold Cache | Warm Cache (code) | Warm Cache (deps) |
+|--------|-----------|-------------------|-------------------|
+| Total time | 10-15 min | 1-2 min | 3-5 min |
+| amd64 build | 5-7 min | 30-60 sec | 1-2 min |
+| arm64 build | 5-7 min | 30-60 sec | 1-2 min |
+| Push time | 1-2 min | 30 sec | 30 sec |
+| Cache hit rate | 0% | 85% | 60% |
+
+### Cache Performance Model
+
+```python
+def estimate_build_time(changes):
+    base_time = 60  # seconds (setup + push)
+
+    if "Dockerfile" in changes:
+        return base_time + (10 * 60)  # Full rebuild: ~11 min
+    elif "requirements.txt" in changes:
+        return base_time + (3 * 60)   # Deps rebuild: ~4 min
+    elif any(f.endswith(".py") for f in changes):
+        return base_time + 60          # Code only: ~2 min
+    else:
+        return base_time               # No changes: ~1 min
+```
+
+---
+
+## Scalability Considerations
+
+### Current Limits
+
+| Resource | Limit | Impact |
+|----------|-------|--------|
+| Workflow concurrency | 20 (default) | Max 20 releases in parallel |
+| Artifact storage | 500 MB/artifact | PyPI packages small (<10 MB) |
+| Cache storage | 10 GB/repo | Docker layers fit comfortably |
+| Workflow run time | 6 hours | Plenty of headroom |
+
+### Scaling Strategies
+
+#### Horizontal Scaling (Multiple Repos)
+```
+crawl4ai (main)
+  ├─ release.yml
+  └─ docker-release.yml
+
+crawl4ai-plugins (separate)
+  ├─ release.yml
+  └─ docker-release.yml
+
+Each repo has independent:
+  - Secrets
+  - Cache (10 GB each)
+  - Concurrency limits (20 each)
+```
+
+#### Vertical Scaling (Larger Runners)
+```yaml
+jobs:
+  docker:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest-8-cores  # GitHub-hosted larger runner
+    # 4x faster builds for CPU-bound layers
+```
+
+---
+
+## Disaster Recovery
+
+### Failure Scenarios
+
+#### Scenario 1: Release Pipeline Fails
+
+**Failure Point**: PyPI upload fails (network error)
+
+**State**:
+- ✓ Version validated
+- ✓ Package built
+- ✗ PyPI upload
+- ✗ GitHub release
+
+**Recovery**:
+```bash
+# Manual upload
+twine upload dist/*
+
+# Retry workflow (re-run from GitHub Actions UI)
+```
+
+**Prevention**: Add retry logic to PyPI upload
+
+#### Scenario 2: Docker Pipeline Fails
+
+**Failure Point**: ARM build fails (dependency issue)
+
+**State**:
+- ✓ PyPI published
+- ✓ GitHub release created
+- ✓ amd64 image built
+- ✗ arm64 image build
+
+**Recovery**:
+```bash
+# Fix Dockerfile
+git commit -am "fix: ARM build dependency"
+
+# Trigger rebuild
+git tag docker-rebuild-v1.2.3
+git push origin docker-rebuild-v1.2.3
+```
+
+**Impact**: PyPI package available, only Docker ARM users affected
+
+#### Scenario 3: Partial Release
+
+**Failure Point**: GitHub release creation fails
+
+**State**:
+- ✓ PyPI published
+- ✗ GitHub release
+- ✗ Docker images
+
+**Recovery**:
+```bash
+# Create release manually
+gh release create v1.2.3 \
+  --title "Release v1.2.3" \
+  --notes "..."
+
+# This triggers docker-release.yml automatically
+```
+
+---
+
+## Monitoring and Observability
+
+### Metrics to Track
+
+#### Release Pipeline
+- Success rate (target: >99%)
+- Duration (target: <3 min)
+- PyPI upload time (target: <60 sec)
+
+#### Docker Pipeline
+- Success rate (target: >95%)
+- Duration (target: <15 min cold, <2 min warm)
+- Cache hit rate (target: >80% for code changes)
+
+### Alerting
+
+**Critical Alerts**:
+- Release pipeline failure (blocks release)
+- PyPI authentication failure (expired token)
+
+**Warning Alerts**:
+- Docker build >15 min (performance degradation)
+- Cache hit rate <50% (cache issue)
+
+### Logging
+
+**GitHub Actions Logs**:
+- Retention: 90 days
+- Downloadable: Yes
+- Searchable: Limited
+
+**Recommended External Logging**:
+```yaml
+- name: Send logs to external service
+  if: failure()
+  run: |
+    curl -X POST https://logs.example.com/api/v1/logs \
+      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+      -d "{\"workflow\": \"${{ github.workflow }}\", \"status\": \"failed\"}"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+### Planned Improvements
+
+1. **Automated Changelog Generation**
+   - Use conventional commits
+   - Generate CHANGELOG.md automatically
+
+2. **Pre-release Testing**
+   - Test builds on `test-v*` tags
+   - Upload to TestPyPI
+
+3. **Notification System**
+   - Slack/Discord notifications on release
+   - Email on failure
+
+4. **Performance Optimization**
+   - Parallel Docker builds (amd64 + arm64 simultaneously)
+   - Persistent runners for better caching
+
+5. **Enhanced Validation**
+   - Smoke tests after PyPI upload
+   - Container security scanning

+response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
+or harmful.
+
+Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
+comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
+not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
+decisions when appropriate.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
+an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
+Examples of representing our community include using an official email address,
+posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
+unclecode@crawl4ai.com. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
+
+All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
+reporter of any incident.
+
+## Enforcement Guidelines
+
+Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining

+
+### 1. Correction
+
+**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
+unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
+
+**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
+clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
+behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
+
+### 2. Warning
+
+**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series of
+actions.
+
+**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
+interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
+those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
+includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
+like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or permanent
+ban.

+### 3. Temporary Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
+sustained inappropriate behavior.
+
+**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
+communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
+private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
+with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
+Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
+
+### 4. Permanent Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
+standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior, harassment of an
+individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.

+# Development Journal
+
+This journal tracks significant feature additions, bug fixes, and architectural decisions in the crawl4ai project. It serves as both documentation and a historical record of the project's evolution.
+
+## [2025-04-17] Added Content Source Selection for Markdown Generation
+
+**Feature:** Configurable content source for markdown generation
+
+**Changes Made:**
+1. Added `content_source: str = "cleaned_html"` parameter to `MarkdownGenerationStrategy` class
+2. Updated `DefaultMarkdownGenerator` to accept and pass the content source parameter
+3. Renamed the `cleaned_html` parameter to `input_html` in the `generate_markdown` method
+4. Modified `AsyncWebCrawler.aprocess_html` to select the appropriate HTML source based on the generator's config
+5. Added `preprocess_html_for_schema` import in `async_webcrawler.py`
+
+**Implementation Details:**
+- Added a new `content_source` parameter to specify which HTML input to use for markdown generation
+- Options include: "cleaned_html" (default), "raw_html", and "fit_html"
+- Used a dictionary dispatch pattern in `aprocess_html` to select the appropriate HTML source
+- Added proper error handling with fallback to cleaned_html if content source selection fails
+- Ensured backward compatibility by defaulting to "cleaned_html" option
+
+**Files Modified:**
+- `crawl4ai/markdown_generation_strategy.py`: Added content_source parameter and updated the method signature
+- `crawl4ai/async_webcrawler.py`: Added HTML source selection logic and updated imports
+
+**Examples:**
+- Created `docs/examples/content_source_example.py` demonstrating how to use the new parameter
+
+**Challenges:**
+- Maintaining backward compatibility while reorganizing the parameter flow
+- Ensuring proper error handling for all content source options
+- Making the change with minimal code modifications
+
+**Why This Feature:**
+The content source selection feature allows users to choose which HTML content to use as input for markdown generation:
+1. "cleaned_html" - Uses the post-processed HTML after scraping strategy (original behavior)
+2. "raw_html" - Uses the original raw HTML directly from the web page
+3. "fit_html" - Uses the preprocessed HTML optimized for schema extraction
+
+This feature provides greater flexibility in how users generate markdown, enabling them to:
+- Capture more detailed content from the original HTML when needed
+- Use schema-optimized HTML when working with structured data
+- Choose the approach that best suits their specific use case
+## [2025-04-17] Implemented High Volume Stress Testing Solution for SDK
+
+**Feature:** Comprehensive stress testing framework using `arun_many` and the dispatcher system to evaluate performance, concurrency handling, and identify potential issues under high-volume crawling scenarios.
+
+**Changes Made:**
+1.  Created a dedicated stress testing framework in the `benchmarking/` (or similar) directory.
+2.  Implemented local test site generation (`SiteGenerator`) with configurable heavy HTML pages.
+3.  Added basic memory usage tracking (`SimpleMemoryTracker`) using platform-specific commands (avoiding `psutil` dependency for this specific test).
+4.  Utilized `CrawlerMonitor` from `crawl4ai` for rich terminal UI and real-time monitoring of test progress and dispatcher activity.
+5.  Implemented detailed result summary saving (JSON) and memory sample logging (CSV).
+6.  Developed `run_benchmark.py` to orchestrate tests with predefined configurations.
+7.  Created `run_all.sh` as a simple wrapper for `run_benchmark.py`.
+
+**Implementation Details:**
+-   Generates a local test site with configurable pages containing heavy text and image content.
+-   Uses Python's built-in `http.server` for local serving, minimizing network variance.
+-   Leverages `crawl4ai`'s `arun_many` method for processing URLs.
+-   Utilizes `MemoryAdaptiveDispatcher` to manage concurrency via the `max_sessions` parameter (note: memory adaptation features require `psutil`, not used by `SimpleMemoryTracker`).
+-   Tracks memory usage via `SimpleMemoryTracker`, recording samples throughout test execution to a CSV file.
+-   Uses `CrawlerMonitor` (which uses the `rich` library) for clear terminal visualization and progress reporting directly from the dispatcher.
+-   Stores detailed final metrics in a JSON summary file.
+
+**Files Created/Updated:**
+-   `stress_test_sdk.py`: Main stress testing implementation using `arun_many`.
+-   `benchmark_report.py`: (Assumed) Report generator for comparing test results.
+-   `run_benchmark.py`: Test runner script with predefined configurations.
+-   `run_all.sh`: Simple bash script wrapper for `run_benchmark.py`.
+-   `USAGE.md`: Comprehensive documentation on usage and interpretation (updated).
+
+**Testing Approach:**
+-   Creates a controlled, reproducible test environment with a local HTTP server.
+-   Processes URLs using `arun_many`, allowing the dispatcher to manage concurrency up to `max_sessions`.
+-   Optionally logs per-batch summaries (when not in streaming mode) after processing chunks.
+-   Supports different test sizes via `run_benchmark.py` configurations.
+-   Records memory samples via platform commands for basic trend analysis.
+-   Includes cleanup functionality for the test environment.
+
+**Challenges:**
+-   Ensuring proper cleanup of HTTP server processes.
+-   Getting reliable memory tracking across platforms without adding heavy dependencies (`psutil`) to this specific test script.
+-   Designing `run_benchmark.py` to correctly pass arguments to `stress_test_sdk.py`.
+
+**Why This Feature:**
+The high volume stress testing solution addresses critical needs for ensuring Crawl4AI's `arun_many` reliability:
+1.  Provides a reproducible way to evaluate performance under concurrent load.
+2.  Allows testing the dispatcher's concurrency control (`max_session_permit`) and queue management.
+3.  Enables performance tuning by observing throughput (`URLs/sec`) under different `max_sessions` settings.
+4.  Creates a controlled environment for testing `arun_many` behavior.
+5.  Supports continuous integration by providing deterministic test conditions for `arun_many`.
+
+**Design Decisions:**
+-   Chose local site generation for reproducibility and isolation from network issues.
+-   Utilized the built-in `CrawlerMonitor` for real-time feedback, leveraging its `rich` integration.
+-   Implemented optional per-batch logging in `stress_test_sdk.py` (when not streaming) to provide chunk-level summaries alongside the continuous monitor.
+-   Adopted `arun_many` with a `MemoryAdaptiveDispatcher` as the core mechanism for parallel execution, reflecting the intended SDK usage.
+-   Created `run_benchmark.py` to simplify running standard test configurations.
+-   Used `SimpleMemoryTracker` to provide basic memory insights without requiring `psutil` for this particular test runner.
+
+**Future Enhancements to Consider:**
+-   Create a separate test variant that *does* use `psutil` to specifically stress the memory-adaptive features of the dispatcher.
+-   Add support for generated JavaScript content.
+-   Add support for Docker-based testing with explicit memory limits.
+-   Enhance `benchmark_report.py` to provide more sophisticated analysis of performance and memory trends from the generated JSON/CSV files.

+3. Performance profiling to identify slow-loading resources
+4. API discovery in single-page applications
+5. Comprehensive analysis of web application behavior
+
+**Future Enhancements to Consider:**
+- Option to filter captured events by type, domain, or content
+- Support for capturing response bodies (with size limits)
+- Aggregate statistics calculation for performance metrics

+# Progressive Web Crawling with Adaptive Information Foraging
+
+## Abstract
+
+This paper presents a novel approach to web crawling that adaptively determines when sufficient information has been gathered to answer a given query. Unlike traditional exhaustive crawling methods, our Progressive Information Sufficiency (PIS) framework uses statistical measures to balance information completeness against crawling efficiency. We introduce a multi-strategy architecture supporting pure statistical, embedding-enhanced, and LLM-assisted approaches, with theoretical guarantees on convergence and practical evaluation methods using synthetic datasets.
+
+## 1. Introduction
+
+Traditional web crawling approaches follow predetermined patterns (breadth-first, depth-first) without consideration for information sufficiency. This work addresses the fundamental question: *"When do we have enough information to answer a query and similar queries in its domain?"*
+
+We formalize this as an optimal stopping problem in information foraging, introducing metrics for coverage, consistency, and saturation that enable crawlers to make intelligent decisions about when to stop crawling and which links to follow.
+
+## 2. Problem Formulation
+
+### 2.1 Definitions
+
+Let:
+- **K** = {d₁, d₂, ..., dₙ} be the current knowledge base (crawled documents)
+- **Q** be the user query
+- **L** = {l₁, l₂, ..., lₘ} be available links with preview metadata
+- **θ** be the confidence threshold for information sufficiency
+
+### 2.2 Objectives
+
+1. **Minimize** |K| (number of crawled pages)
+2. **Maximize** P(answers(Q) | K) (probability of answering Q given K)
+3. **Ensure** coverage of Q's domain (similar queries)
+
+## 3. Mathematical Framework
+
+### 3.1 Information Sufficiency Metric
+
+We define Information Sufficiency as:
+
+```
+IS(K, Q) = min(Coverage(K, Q), Consistency(K, Q), 1 - Redundancy(K)) × DomainCoverage(K, Q)
+```
+
+### 3.2 Coverage Score
+
+Coverage measures how well current knowledge covers query terms and related concepts:
+
+```
+Coverage(K, Q) = Σ(t ∈ Q) log(df(t, K) + 1) × idf(t) / |Q|
+```
+
+Where:
+- df(t, K) = document frequency of term t in knowledge base K
+- idf(t) = inverse document frequency weight
+
+### 3.3 Consistency Score
+
+Consistency measures information coherence across documents:
+
+```
+Consistency(K, Q) = 1 - Var(answers from random subsets of K)
+```
+
+This captures the principle that sufficient knowledge should provide stable answers regardless of document subset.
+
+### 3.4 Saturation Score
+
+Saturation detects diminishing returns:
+
+```
+Saturation(K) = 1 - (ΔInfo(Kₙ) / ΔInfo(K₁))
+```
+
+Where ΔInfo represents marginal information gain from the nth crawl.
+
+### 3.5 Link Value Prediction
+
+Expected information gain from uncrawled links:
+
+```
+ExpectedGain(l) = Relevance(l, Q) × Novelty(l, K) × Authority(l)
+```
+
+Components:
+- **Relevance**: BM25(preview_text, Q)
+- **Novelty**: 1 - max_similarity(preview, K)
+- **Authority**: f(url_structure, domain_metrics)
+
+## 4. Algorithmic Approach
+
+### 4.1 Progressive Crawling Algorithm
+
+```
+Algorithm: ProgressiveCrawl(start_url, query, θ)
+  K ← ∅
+  crawled ← {start_url}
+  pending ← extract_links(crawl(start_url))
+  
+  while IS(K, Q) < θ and |crawled| < max_pages:
+    candidates ← rank_by_expected_gain(pending, Q, K)
+    if max(ExpectedGain(candidates)) < min_gain:
+      break  // Diminishing returns
+    
+    to_crawl ← top_k(candidates)
+    new_docs ← parallel_crawl(to_crawl)
+    K ← K ∪ new_docs
+    crawled ← crawled ∪ to_crawl
+    pending ← extract_new_links(new_docs) - crawled
+  
+  return K
+```
+
+### 4.2 Stopping Criteria
+
+Crawling terminates when:
+1. IS(K, Q) ≥ θ (sufficient information)
+2. d(IS)/d(crawls) < ε (plateau reached)
+3. |crawled| ≥ max_pages (resource limit)
+4. max(ExpectedGain) < min_gain (no promising links)
+
+## 5. Multi-Strategy Architecture
+
+### 5.1 Strategy Pattern Design
+
+```
+AbstractStrategy
+  ├── StatisticalStrategy (no LLM, no embeddings)
+  ├── EmbeddingStrategy (with semantic similarity)
+  └── LLMStrategy (with language model assistance)
+```
+
+### 5.2 Statistical Strategy
+
+Pure statistical approach using:
+- BM25 for relevance scoring
+- Term frequency analysis for coverage
+- Graph structure for authority
+- No external models required
+
+**Advantages**: Fast, no API costs, works offline
+**Best for**: Technical documentation, specific terminology
+
+### 5.3 Embedding Strategy (Implemented)
+
+Semantic understanding through embeddings:
+- Query expansion into semantic variations
+- Coverage mapping in embedding space
+- Gap-driven link selection
+- Validation-based stopping criteria
+
+**Mathematical Framework**:
+```
+Coverage(K, Q) = mean(max_similarity(q, K) for q in Q_expanded)
+Gap(q) = 1 - max_similarity(q, K)
+LinkScore(l) = Σ(Gap(q) × relevance(l, q)) × (1 - redundancy(l, K))
+```
+
+**Key Parameters**:
+- `embedding_k_exp`: Exponential decay factor for distance-to-score mapping
+- `embedding_coverage_radius`: Distance threshold for query coverage
+- `embedding_min_confidence_threshold`: Minimum relevance threshold
+
+**Advantages**: Semantic understanding, handles ambiguity, detects irrelevance
+**Best for**: Research queries, conceptual topics, diverse content
+
+### 5.4 Progressive Enhancement Path
+
+1. **Level 0**: Statistical only (implemented)
+2. **Level 1**: + Embeddings for semantic similarity (implemented)
+3. **Level 2**: + LLM for query understanding (future)
+
+## 6. Evaluation Methodology
+
+### 6.1 Synthetic Dataset Generation
+
+Using LLM to create evaluation data:
+
+```python
+def generate_synthetic_dataset(domain_url):
+    # 1. Fully crawl domain
+    full_knowledge = exhaustive_crawl(domain_url)
+    
+    # 2. Generate answerable queries
+    queries = llm_generate_queries(full_knowledge)
+    
+    # 3. Create query variations
+    for q in queries:
+        variations = generate_variations(q)  # synonyms, sub/super queries
+    
+    return queries, variations, full_knowledge
+```
+
+### 6.2 Evaluation Metrics
+
+1. **Efficiency**: Information gained / Pages crawled
+2. **Completeness**: Answerable queries / Total queries
+3. **Redundancy**: 1 - (Unique information / Total information)
+4. **Convergence Rate**: Pages to 95% completeness
+
+### 6.3 Ablation Studies
+
+- Impact of each score component (coverage, consistency, saturation)
+- Sensitivity to threshold parameters
+- Performance across different domain types
+
+## 7. Theoretical Properties
+
+### 7.1 Convergence Guarantee
+
+**Theorem**: For finite websites, ProgressiveCrawl converges to IS(K, Q) ≥ θ or exhausts all reachable pages.
+
+**Proof sketch**: IS(K, Q) is monotonically non-decreasing with each crawl, bounded above by 1.
+
+### 7.2 Optimality
+
+Under certain assumptions about link preview accuracy:
+- Expected crawls ≤ 2 × optimal_crawls
+- Approximation ratio improves with preview quality
+
+## 8. Implementation Design
+
+### 8.1 Core Components
+
+1. **CrawlState**: Maintains crawl history and metrics
+2. **AdaptiveConfig**: Configuration parameters
+3. **CrawlStrategy**: Pluggable strategy interface
+4. **AdaptiveCrawler**: Main orchestrator
+
+### 8.2 Integration with Crawl4AI
+
+- Wraps existing AsyncWebCrawler
+- Leverages link preview functionality
+- Maintains backward compatibility
+
+### 8.3 Persistence
+
+Knowledge base serialization for:
+- Resumable crawls
+- Knowledge sharing
+- Offline analysis
+
+## 9. Future Directions
+
+### 9.1 Advanced Scoring
+
+- Temporal information value
+- Multi-query optimization
+- Active learning from user feedback
+
+### 9.2 Distributed Crawling
+
+- Collaborative knowledge building
+- Federated information sufficiency
+
+### 9.3 Domain Adaptation
+
+- Transfer learning across domains
+- Meta-learning for threshold selection
+
+## 10. Conclusion
+
+Progressive crawling with adaptive information foraging provides a principled approach to efficient web information extraction. By combining coverage, consistency, and saturation metrics, we can determine information sufficiency without ground truth labels. The multi-strategy architecture allows graceful enhancement from pure statistical to LLM-assisted approaches based on requirements and resources.

+<summary>🤓 <strong>My Personal Story</strong></summary>
+
+My journey with computers started in childhood when my dad, a computer scientist, introduced me to an Amstrad computer. Those early days sparked a fascination with technology, leading me to pursue computer science and specialize in NLP during my postgraduate studies. It was during this time that I first delved into web crawling, building tools to help researchers organize papers and extract information from publications a challenging yet rewarding experience that honed my skills in data extraction.
+
+Fast forward to 2023, I was working on a tool for a project and needed a crawler to convert a webpage into markdown. While exploring solutions, I found one that claimed to be open-source but required creating an account and generating an API token. Worse, it turned out to be a SaaS model charging $16, and its quality didn’t meet my standards. Frustrated, I realized this was a deeper problem. That frustration turned into turbo anger mode, and I decided to build my own solution. In just a few days, I created Crawl4AI. To my surprise, it went viral, earning thousands of GitHub stars and resonating with a global community.
+
+I made Crawl4AI open-source for two reasons. First, it’s my way of giving back to the open-source community that has supported me throughout my career. Second, I believe data should be accessible to everyone, not locked behind paywalls or monopolized by a few. Open access to data lays the foundation for the democratization of AI, a vision where individuals can train their own models and take ownership of their information. This library is the first step in a larger journey to create the best open-source data extraction and generation tool the world has ever seen, built collaboratively by a passionate community.
+
+Thank you to everyone who has supported this project, used it, and shared feedback. Your encouragement motivates me to dream even bigger. Join us, file issues, submit PRs, or spread the word. Together, we can build a tool that truly empowers people to access their own data and reshape the future of AI.

+
+## Installation 🛠️
+
+Crawl4AI offers flexible installation options to suit various use cases. You can install it as a Python package or use Docker.
+
+<details>
+<summary>🐍 <strong>Using pip</strong></summary>
+
+Choose the installation option that best fits your needs:
+
+### Basic Installation
+
+For basic web crawling and scraping tasks:
+
+```bash
+pip install crawl4ai
+crawl4ai-setup # Setup the browser
+```
+
+By default, this will install the asynchronous version of Crawl4AI, using Playwright for web crawling.
+
+👉 **Note**: When you install Crawl4AI, the `crawl4ai-setup` should automatically install and set up Playwright. However, if you encounter any Playwright-related errors, you can manually install it using one of these methods:
+
+1. Through the command line:
+
+   ```bash
+   playwright install
+   ```
+
+2. If the above doesn't work, try this more specific command:
+
+   ```bash
+   python -m playwright install chromium
+   ```
+
+This second method has proven to be more reliable in some cases.
+
+---
+
+### Installation with Synchronous Version
+
+The sync version is deprecated and will be removed in future versions. If you need the synchronous version using Selenium:
+
+```bash
+pip install crawl4ai[sync]
+```
+
+---
+
+### Development Installation
+
+For contributors who plan to modify the source code:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai.git
+cd crawl4ai
+pip install -e .                    # Basic installation in editable mode

+
+## Version Numbering in Crawl4AI
+
+Crawl4AI follows standard Python version numbering conventions (PEP 440) to help users understand the stability and features of each release.
+
+### Version Numbers Explained
+
+Our version numbers follow this pattern: `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH` (e.g., 0.4.3)
+
+#### Pre-release Versions
+We use different suffixes to indicate development stages:
+
+- `dev` (0.4.3dev1): Development versions, unstable
+- `a` (0.4.3a1): Alpha releases, experimental features
+- `b` (0.4.3b1): Beta releases, feature complete but needs testing
+- `rc` (0.4.3): Release candidates, potential final version
+
+#### Installation
+- Regular installation (stable version):
+  ```bash
+  pip install -U crawl4ai
+  ```
+
+- Install pre-release versions:
+  ```bash
+  pip install crawl4ai --pre
+  ```
+
+- Install specific version:
+  ```bash
+  pip install crawl4ai==0.4.3b1
+  ```
+
+#### Why Pre-releases?
+We use pre-releases to:
+- Test new features in real-world scenarios
+- Gather feedback before final releases
+- Ensure stability for production users
+- Allow early adopters to try new features
+
+For production environments, we recommend using the stable version. For testing new features, you can opt-in to pre-releases using the `--pre` flag.

-
-Your contributions are driving Crawl4AI forward! 🚀
-
-## Cool Examples 🚀
-
-### Quick Start
-
-```python
-from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
-
-# Create an instance of WebCrawler
-crawler = WebCrawler()
-
-# Warm up the crawler (load necessary models)
-crawler.warmup()
-
-# Run the crawler on a URL
-result = crawler.run(url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business")
-
-# Print the extracted content
-print(result.markdown)
-```
-
-## How to install 🛠 
-
-### Using pip 🐍
-```bash
-virtualenv venv
-source venv/bin/activate
-pip install "crawl4ai @ git+https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai.git"
-```
-
-### Using Docker 🐳
-
-```bash
-# For Mac users (M1/M2)
-# docker build --platform linux/amd64 -t crawl4ai .
-docker build -t crawl4ai .
-docker run -d -p 8000:80 crawl4ai
-```
-
-### Using Docker Hub 🐳
-
-```bash
-docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:latest
-docker run -d -p 8000:80 unclecode/crawl4ai:latest
-```
-
-
-## Speed-First Design 🚀
-
-Perhaps the most important design principle for this library is speed. We need to ensure it can handle many links and resources in parallel as quickly as possible. By combining this speed with fast LLMs like Groq, the results will be truly amazing.
-
-```python
-import time
-from crawl4ai.web_crawler import WebCrawler
-crawler = WebCrawler()
-crawler.warmup()
-
-start = time.time()
-url = r"https://www.nbcnews.com/business"
-result = crawler.run( url, word_count_threshold=10, bypass_cache=True)
-end = time.time()
-print(f"Time taken: {end - start}")
-```
-
-Let's take a look the calculated time for the above code snippet:
-
-```bash
-[LOG] 🚀 Crawling done, success: True, time taken: 1.3623387813568115 seconds
-[LOG] 🚀 Content extracted, success: True, time taken: 0.05715131759643555 seconds
-[LOG] 🚀 Extraction, time taken: 0.05750393867492676 seconds.
-Time taken: 1.439958095550537
-```
-Fetching the content from the page took 1.3623 seconds, and extracting the content took 0.0575 seconds. 🚀
-
-### Extract Structured Data from Web Pages 📊
-
-Crawl all OpenAI models and their fees from the official page.
-
-```python
-import os
-from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
-from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import LLMExtractionStrategy
-from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
-
-class OpenAIModelFee(BaseModel):
-    model_name: str = Field(..., description="Name of the OpenAI model.")
-    input_fee: str = Field(..., description="Fee for input token for the OpenAI model.")
-    output_fee: str = Field(..., description="Fee for output token ßfor the OpenAI model.")
-
-url = 'https://openai.com/api/pricing/'
-crawler = WebCrawler()
-crawler.warmup()
-
-result = crawler.run(
-        url=url,
-        word_count_threshold=1,
-        extraction_strategy= LLMExtractionStrategy(
-            provider= "openai/gpt-4o", api_token = os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY'), 
-            schema=OpenAIModelFee.schema(),
-            extraction_type="schema",
-            instruction="""From the crawled content, extract all mentioned model names along with their fees for input and output tokens. 
-            Do not miss any models in the entire content. One extracted model JSON format should look like this: 
-            {"model_name": "GPT-4", "input_fee": "US$10.00 / 1M tokens", "output_fee": "US$30.00 / 1M tokens"}."""
-        ),            
-        bypass_cache=True,
-    )
-
-print(result.extracted_content)
-```
-
-### Execute JS, Filter Data with CSS Selector, and Clustering
-
-```python
-from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
-from crawl4ai.chunking_strategy import CosineStrategy
-
-js_code = ["const loadMoreButton = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('button')).find(button => button.textContent.includes('Load More')); loadMoreButton && loadMoreButton.click();"]
-
-crawler = WebCrawler()
-crawler.warmup()
-
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    js=js_code,
-    css_selector="p",
-    extraction_strategy=CosineStrategy(semantic_filter="technology")
-)
-
-print(result.extracted_content)
-```
-
-### Extract Structured Data from Web Pages With Proxy and BaseUrl
-
-```python
-from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
-from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import LLMExtractionStrategy
-
-def create_crawler():
-    crawler = WebCrawler(verbose=True, proxy="http://127.0.0.1:7890")
-    crawler.warmup()
-    return crawler
-
-crawler = create_crawler()
-
-crawler.warmup()
-
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    extraction_strategy=LLMExtractionStrategy(
-        provider="openai/gpt-4o",
-        api_token="sk-",
-        base_url="https://api.openai.com/v1"
-    )
-)
-
-print(result.markdown)

+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security issue, please report it responsibly.
+
+### How to Report
+
+**DO NOT** open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.
+
+Instead, please report via one of these methods:
+
+1. **GitHub Security Advisories (Preferred)**
+   - Go to [Security Advisories](https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai/security/advisories)
+   - Click "New draft security advisory"
+   - Fill in the details
+
+2. **Email**
+   - Send details to: security@crawl4ai.com
+   - Use subject: `[SECURITY] Brief description`
+   - Include:
+     - Description of the vulnerability
+     - Steps to reproduce
+     - Potential impact
+     - Any suggested fixes
+
+### What to Expect
+
+- **Acknowledgment**: Within 48 hours
+- **Initial Assessment**: Within 7 days
+- **Resolution Timeline**: Depends on severity
+  - Critical: 24-72 hours
+  - High: 7 days
+  - Medium: 30 days
+  - Low: 90 days
+
+### Disclosure Policy
+
+- We follow responsible disclosure practices
+- We will coordinate with you on disclosure timing
+- Credit will be given to reporters (unless anonymity is requested)
+- We may request CVE assignment for significant vulnerabilities
+
+## Security Best Practices for Users
+
+### Docker API Deployment
+
+If you're running the Crawl4AI Docker API in production:
+
+1. **Enable Authentication**
+   ```yaml
+   # config.yml
+   security:
+     enabled: true
+     jwt_enabled: true
+   ```
+   ```bash
+   # Set a strong secret key
+   export SECRET_KEY="your-secure-random-key-here"
+   ```
+
+2. **Hooks are Disabled by Default** (v0.8.0+)
+   - Only enable if you trust all API users
+   - Set `CRAWL4AI_HOOKS_ENABLED=true` only when necessary
+
+3. **Network Security**
+   - Run behind a reverse proxy (nginx, traefik)
+   - Use HTTPS in production
+   - Restrict access to trusted IPs if possible
+
+4. **Container Security**
+   - Run as non-root user (default in our container)
+   - Use read-only filesystem where possible
+   - Limit container resources
+
+### Library Usage
+
+When using Crawl4AI as a Python library:
+
+1. **Validate URLs** before crawling untrusted input
+2. **Sanitize extracted content** before using in other systems
+3. **Be cautious with hooks** - they execute arbitrary code
+
+## Known Security Issues
+
+### Fixed in v0.8.0
+
+| ID | Severity | Description | Fix |
+|----|----------|-------------|-----|
+| CVE-pending-1 | CRITICAL | RCE via hooks `__import__` | Removed from allowed builtins |
+| CVE-pending-2 | HIGH | LFI via `file://` URLs | URL scheme validation added |
+
+See [Security Advisory](https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai/security/advisories) for details.
+
+## Security Features
+
+### v0.8.0+
+
+- **URL Scheme Validation**: Blocks `file://`, `javascript:`, `data:` URLs on API
+- **Hooks Disabled by Default**: Opt-in via `CRAWL4AI_HOOKS_ENABLED=true`
+- **Restricted Hook Builtins**: No `__import__`, `eval`, `exec`, `open`
+- **JWT Authentication**: Optional but recommended for production
+- **Rate Limiting**: Configurable request limits
+- **Security Headers**: X-Frame-Options, CSP, HSTS when enabled
+
+## Acknowledgments
+
+We thank the following security researchers for responsibly disclosing vulnerabilities:

+    Calculates optimal batch size for URL processing using quantum-inspired mathematical principles.
+

+    2. Depth-aware amplitude modulation
+    3. Harmonic series dampening
+    4. Logarithmic growth control
+    5. Dynamic frontier adaptation
+
