This commit resolves issue #1055 where LLM extraction was blocking async

execution, causing URLs to be processed sequentially instead of in parallel.

  Changes:
  - Added aperform_completion_with_backoff() using litellm.acompletion for async LLM calls
  - Implemented arun() method in ExtractionStrategy base class with thread pool fallback
  - Created async arun() and aextract() methods in LLMExtractionStrategy using asyncio.gather
  - Updated AsyncWebCrawler.arun() to detect and use arun() when available
  - Added comprehensive test suite to verify parallel execution

  Impact:
  - LLM extraction now runs truly in parallel across multiple URLs
  - Significant performance improvement for multi-URL crawls with LLM strategies
  - Backward compatible - existing extraction strategies continue to work
  - No breaking changes to public API

  Technical details:
  - Uses litellm.acompletion for non-blocking LLM calls
  - Leverages asyncio.gather for concurrent chunk processing
  - Maintains backward compatibility via asyncio.to_thread fallback
  - Works seamlessly with MemoryAdaptiveDispatcher and other dispatchers

+### Asynchronous Jobs with Webhooks
+
+For long-running crawls or when you want to avoid keeping connections open, use the job queue endpoints. Instead of polling for results, configure a webhook to receive notifications when jobs complete.
+
+#### Why Use Jobs & Webhooks?
+
+- **No Polling Required** - Get notified when crawls complete instead of constantly checking status
+- **Better Resource Usage** - Free up client connections while jobs run in the background
+- **Scalable Architecture** - Ideal for high-volume crawling with TypeScript/Node.js clients or microservices
+- **Reliable Delivery** - Automatic retry with exponential backoff (5 attempts: 1s → 2s → 4s → 8s → 16s)
+
+#### How It Works
+
+1. **Submit Job** → POST to `/crawl/job` with optional `webhook_config`
+2. **Get Task ID** → Receive a `task_id` immediately
+3. **Job Runs** → Crawl executes in the background
+4. **Webhook Fired** → Server POSTs completion notification to your webhook URL
+5. **Fetch Results** → If data wasn't included in webhook, GET `/crawl/job/{task_id}`
+
+#### Quick Example
+
+```bash
+# Submit a crawl job with webhook notification
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/crawl/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/crawl-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": false
+    }
+  }'
+
+# Response: {"task_id": "crawl_a1b2c3d4"}
+```
+
+**Your webhook receives:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_a1b2c3d4",
+  "task_type": "crawl",
+  "status": "completed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-21T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"]
+}
+```
+
+Then fetch the results:
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:11235/crawl/job/crawl_a1b2c3d4
+```
+
+#### Include Data in Webhook
+
+Set `webhook_data_in_payload: true` to receive the full crawl results directly in the webhook:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/crawl/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/crawl-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": true
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+**Your webhook receives the complete data:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_a1b2c3d4",
+  "task_type": "crawl",
+  "status": "completed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-21T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+  "data": {
+    "markdown": "...",
+    "html": "...",
+    "links": {...},
+    "metadata": {...}
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Webhook Authentication
+
+Add custom headers for authentication:
+
+```json
+{
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+  "webhook_config": {
+    "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/crawl",
+    "webhook_data_in_payload": false,
+    "webhook_headers": {
+      "X-Webhook-Secret": "your-secret-token",
+      "X-Service-ID": "crawl4ai-prod"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Global Default Webhook
+
+Configure a default webhook URL in `config.yml` for all jobs:
+
+```yaml
+webhooks:
+  enabled: true
+  default_url: "https://myapp.com/webhooks/default"
+  data_in_payload: false
+  retry:
+    max_attempts: 5
+    initial_delay_ms: 1000
+    max_delay_ms: 32000
+    timeout_ms: 30000
+```
+
+Now jobs without `webhook_config` automatically use the default webhook.
+
+#### Job Status Polling (Without Webhooks)
+
+If you prefer polling instead of webhooks, just omit `webhook_config`:
+
+```bash
+# Submit job
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/crawl/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"urls": ["https://example.com"]}'
+# Response: {"task_id": "crawl_xyz"}
+
+# Poll for status
+curl http://localhost:11235/crawl/job/crawl_xyz
+```
+
+The response includes `status` field: `"processing"`, `"completed"`, or `"failed"`.
+
+#### LLM Extraction Jobs with Webhooks
+
+The same webhook system works for LLM extraction jobs via `/llm/job`:
+
+```bash
+# Submit LLM extraction job with webhook
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/llm/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "url": "https://example.com/article",
+    "q": "Extract the article title, author, and main points",
+    "provider": "openai/gpt-4o-mini",
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/llm-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": true,
+      "webhook_headers": {
+        "X-Webhook-Secret": "your-secret-token"
+      }
+    }
+  }'
+
+# Response: {"task_id": "llm_1234567890"}
+```
+
+**Your webhook receives:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "llm_1234567890",
+  "task_type": "llm_extraction",
+  "status": "completed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-22T12:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com/article"],
+  "data": {
+    "extracted_content": {
+      "title": "Understanding Web Scraping",
+      "author": "John Doe",
+      "main_points": ["Point 1", "Point 2", "Point 3"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Key Differences for LLM Jobs:**
+- Task type is `"llm_extraction"` instead of `"crawl"`
+- Extracted data is in `data.extracted_content`
+- Single URL only (not an array)
+- Supports schema-based extraction with `schema` parameter
+
+> 💡 **Pro tip**: See [WEBHOOK_EXAMPLES.md](./WEBHOOK_EXAMPLES.md) for detailed examples including TypeScript client code, Flask webhook handlers, and failure handling.

+# Webhook Feature Examples
+
+This document provides examples of how to use the webhook feature for crawl jobs in Crawl4AI.
+
+## Overview
+
+The webhook feature allows you to receive notifications when crawl jobs complete, eliminating the need for polling. Webhooks are sent with exponential backoff retry logic to ensure reliable delivery.
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Global Configuration (config.yml)
+
+You can configure default webhook settings in `config.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+webhooks:
+  enabled: true
+  default_url: null  # Optional: default webhook URL for all jobs
+  data_in_payload: false  # Optional: default behavior for including data
+  retry:
+    max_attempts: 5
+    initial_delay_ms: 1000  # 1s, 2s, 4s, 8s, 16s exponential backoff
+    max_delay_ms: 32000
+    timeout_ms: 30000  # 30s timeout per webhook call
+  headers:  # Optional: default headers to include
+    User-Agent: "Crawl4AI-Webhook/1.0"
+```
+
+## API Usage Examples
+
+### Example 1: Basic Webhook (Notification Only)
+
+Send a webhook notification without including the crawl data in the payload.
+
+**Request:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/crawl/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/crawl-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": false
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_a1b2c3d4"
+}
+```
+
+**Webhook Payload Received:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_a1b2c3d4",
+  "task_type": "crawl",
+  "status": "completed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-21T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"]
+}
+```
+
+Your webhook handler should then fetch the results:
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:11235/crawl/job/crawl_a1b2c3d4
+```
+
+### Example 2: Webhook with Data Included
+
+Include the full crawl results in the webhook payload.
+
+**Request:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/crawl/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/crawl-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": true
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+**Webhook Payload Received:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_a1b2c3d4",
+  "task_type": "crawl",
+  "status": "completed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-21T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+  "data": {
+    "markdown": "...",
+    "html": "...",
+    "links": {...},
+    "metadata": {...}
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Example 3: Webhook with Custom Headers
+
+Include custom headers for authentication or identification.
+
+**Request:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/crawl/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/crawl-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": false,
+      "webhook_headers": {
+        "X-Webhook-Secret": "my-secret-token",
+        "X-Service-ID": "crawl4ai-production"
+      }
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+The webhook will be sent with these additional headers plus the default headers from config.
+
+### Example 4: Failure Notification
+
+When a crawl job fails, a webhook is sent with error details.
+
+**Webhook Payload on Failure:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_a1b2c3d4",
+  "task_type": "crawl",
+  "status": "failed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-21T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+  "error": "Connection timeout after 30s"
+}
+```
+
+### Example 5: Using Global Default Webhook
+
+If you set a `default_url` in config.yml, jobs without webhook_config will use it:
+
+**config.yml:**
+```yaml
+webhooks:
+  enabled: true
+  default_url: "https://myapp.com/webhooks/default"
+  data_in_payload: false
+```
+
+**Request (no webhook_config needed):**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/crawl/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"]
+  }'
+```
+
+The webhook will be sent to the default URL configured in config.yml.
+
+### Example 6: LLM Extraction Job with Webhook
+
+Use webhooks with the LLM extraction endpoint for asynchronous processing.
+
+**Request:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/llm/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "url": "https://example.com/article",
+    "q": "Extract the article title, author, and publication date",
+    "schema": "{\"type\": \"object\", \"properties\": {\"title\": {\"type\": \"string\"}, \"author\": {\"type\": \"string\"}, \"date\": {\"type\": \"string\"}}}",
+    "cache": false,
+    "provider": "openai/gpt-4o-mini",
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/llm-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": true
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "llm_1698765432_12345"
+}
+```
+
+**Webhook Payload Received:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "llm_1698765432_12345",
+  "task_type": "llm_extraction",
+  "status": "completed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-21T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com/article"],
+  "data": {
+    "extracted_content": {
+      "title": "Understanding Web Scraping",
+      "author": "John Doe",
+      "date": "2025-10-21"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Webhook Handler Example
+
+Here's a simple Python Flask webhook handler that supports both crawl and LLM extraction jobs:
+
+```python
+from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
+import requests
+
+app = Flask(__name__)
+
+@app.route('/webhooks/crawl-complete', methods=['POST'])
+def handle_crawl_webhook():
+    payload = request.json
+
+    task_id = payload['task_id']
+    task_type = payload['task_type']
+    status = payload['status']
+
+    if status == 'completed':
+        # If data not in payload, fetch it
+        if 'data' not in payload:
+            # Determine endpoint based on task type
+            endpoint = 'crawl' if task_type == 'crawl' else 'llm'
+            response = requests.get(f'http://localhost:11235/{endpoint}/job/{task_id}')
+            data = response.json()
+        else:
+            data = payload['data']
+
+        # Process based on task type
+        if task_type == 'crawl':
+            print(f"Processing crawl results for {task_id}")
+            # Handle crawl results
+            results = data.get('results', [])
+            for result in results:
+                print(f"  - {result.get('url')}: {len(result.get('markdown', ''))} chars")
+
+        elif task_type == 'llm_extraction':
+            print(f"Processing LLM extraction for {task_id}")
+            # Handle LLM extraction
+            # Note: Webhook sends 'extracted_content', API returns 'result'
+            extracted = data.get('extracted_content', data.get('result', {}))
+            print(f"  - Extracted: {extracted}")
+
+        # Your business logic here...
+
+    elif status == 'failed':
+        error = payload.get('error', 'Unknown error')
+        print(f"{task_type} job {task_id} failed: {error}")
+        # Handle failure...
+
+    return jsonify({"status": "received"}), 200
+
+if __name__ == '__main__':
+    app.run(port=8080)
+```
+
+## Retry Logic
+
+The webhook delivery service uses exponential backoff retry logic:
+
+- **Attempts:** Up to 5 attempts by default
+- **Delays:** 1s → 2s → 4s → 8s → 16s
+- **Timeout:** 30 seconds per attempt
+- **Retry Conditions:**
+  - Server errors (5xx status codes)
+  - Network errors
+  - Timeouts
+- **No Retry:**
+  - Client errors (4xx status codes)
+  - Successful delivery (2xx status codes)
+

+1. **No Polling Required** - Eliminates constant API calls to check job status
+2. **Real-time Notifications** - Immediate notification when jobs complete
+3. **Reliable Delivery** - Exponential backoff ensures webhooks are delivered
+4. **Flexible** - Choose between notification-only or full data delivery
+5. **Secure** - Support for custom headers for authentication
+6. **Configurable** - Global defaults or per-job configuration
+7. **Universal Support** - Works with both `/crawl/job` and `/llm/job` endpoints
+
+## TypeScript Client Example
+
+```typescript
+interface WebhookConfig {
+  webhook_url: string;
+  webhook_data_in_payload?: boolean;
+  webhook_headers?: Record<string, string>;
+}
+
+interface CrawlJobRequest {
+  urls: string[];
+  browser_config?: Record<string, any>;
+  crawler_config?: Record<string, any>;
+  webhook_config?: WebhookConfig;
+}
+
+interface LLMJobRequest {
+  url: string;
+  q: string;
+  schema?: string;
+  cache?: boolean;
+  provider?: string;
+  webhook_config?: WebhookConfig;
+}
+
+async function createCrawlJob(request: CrawlJobRequest) {
+  const response = await fetch('http://localhost:11235/crawl/job', {
+    method: 'POST',
+    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
+    body: JSON.stringify(request)
+  });
+
+  const { task_id } = await response.json();
+  return task_id;
+}
+
+async function createLLMJob(request: LLMJobRequest) {
+  const response = await fetch('http://localhost:11235/llm/job', {
+    method: 'POST',
+    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
+    body: JSON.stringify(request)
+  });
+
+  const { task_id } = await response.json();
+  return task_id;
+}
+
+// Usage - Crawl Job
+const crawlTaskId = await createCrawlJob({
+  urls: ['https://example.com'],
+  webhook_config: {
+    webhook_url: 'https://myapp.com/webhooks/crawl-complete',
+    webhook_data_in_payload: false,
+    webhook_headers: {
+      'X-Webhook-Secret': 'my-secret'
+    }
+  }
+});
+
+// Usage - LLM Extraction Job
+const llmTaskId = await createLLMJob({
+  url: 'https://example.com/article',
+  q: 'Extract the main points from this article',
+  provider: 'openai/gpt-4o-mini',
+  webhook_config: {
+    webhook_url: 'https://myapp.com/webhooks/llm-complete',
+    webhook_data_in_payload: true,
+    webhook_headers: {
+      'X-Webhook-Secret': 'my-secret'
+    }
+  }
+});
+```
+
+## Monitoring and Debugging
+
+Webhook delivery attempts are logged at INFO level:
+- Successful deliveries
+- Retry attempts with delays
+- Final failures after max attempts
+
+Check the application logs for webhook delivery status:
+```bash
+docker logs crawl4ai-container | grep -i webhook
+```

+# 🚀 Crawl4AI v0.7.5: The Docker Hooks & Security Update
+
+*September 29, 2025 • 8 min read*
+
+---
+
+Today I'm releasing Crawl4AI v0.7.5—focused on extensibility and security. This update introduces the Docker Hooks System for pipeline customization, enhanced LLM integration, and important security improvements.
+
+## 🎯 What's New at a Glance
+
+- **Docker Hooks System**: Custom Python functions at key pipeline points with function-based API
+- **Function-Based Hooks**: New `hooks_to_string()` utility with Docker client auto-conversion
+- **Enhanced LLM Integration**: Custom providers with temperature control
+- **HTTPS Preservation**: Secure internal link handling
+- **Bug Fixes**: Resolved multiple community-reported issues
+- **Improved Docker Error Handling**: Better debugging and reliability
+
+## 🔧 Docker Hooks System: Pipeline Customization
+
+Every scraping project needs custom logic—authentication, performance optimization, content processing. Traditional solutions require forking or complex workarounds. Docker Hooks let you inject custom Python functions at 8 key points in the crawling pipeline.
+
+### Real Example: Authentication & Performance
+
+```python
+import requests
+
+# Real working hooks for httpbin.org
+hooks_config = {
+    "on_page_context_created": """
+async def hook(page, context, **kwargs):
+    print("Hook: Setting up page context")
+    # Block images to speed up crawling
+    await context.route("**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg,gif,webp}", lambda route: route.abort())
+    print("Hook: Images blocked")
+    return page
+""",
+
+    "before_retrieve_html": """
+async def hook(page, context, **kwargs):
+    print("Hook: Before retrieving HTML")
+    # Scroll to bottom to load lazy content
+    await page.evaluate("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)")
+    await page.wait_for_timeout(1000)
+    print("Hook: Scrolled to bottom")
+    return page
+""",
+
+    "before_goto": """
+async def hook(page, context, url, **kwargs):
+    print(f"Hook: About to navigate to {url}")
+    # Add custom headers
+    await page.set_extra_http_headers({
+        'X-Test-Header': 'crawl4ai-hooks-test'
+    })
+    return page
+"""
+}
+
+# Test with Docker API
+payload = {
+    "urls": ["https://httpbin.org/html"],
+    "hooks": {
+        "code": hooks_config,
+        "timeout": 30
+    }
+}
+
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:11235/crawl", json=payload)
+result = response.json()
+
+if result.get('success'):
+    print("✅ Hooks executed successfully!")
+    print(f"Content length: {len(result.get('markdown', ''))} characters")
+```
+
+**Available Hook Points:**
+- `on_browser_created`: Browser setup
+- `on_page_context_created`: Page context configuration
+- `before_goto`: Pre-navigation setup
+- `after_goto`: Post-navigation processing
+- `on_user_agent_updated`: User agent changes
+- `on_execution_started`: Crawl initialization
+- `before_retrieve_html`: Pre-extraction processing
+- `before_return_html`: Final HTML processing
+
+### Function-Based Hooks API
+
+Writing hooks as strings works, but lacks IDE support and type checking. v0.7.5 introduces a function-based approach with automatic conversion!
+
+**Option 1: Using the `hooks_to_string()` Utility**
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import hooks_to_string
+import requests
+
+# Define hooks as regular Python functions (with full IDE support!)
+async def on_page_context_created(page, context, **kwargs):
+    """Block images to speed up crawling"""
+    await context.route("**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg,gif,webp}", lambda route: route.abort())
+    await page.set_viewport_size({"width": 1920, "height": 1080})
+    return page
+
+async def before_goto(page, context, url, **kwargs):
+    """Add custom headers"""
+    await page.set_extra_http_headers({
+        'X-Crawl4AI': 'v0.7.5',
+        'X-Custom-Header': 'my-value'
+    })
+    return page
+
+# Convert functions to strings
+hooks_code = hooks_to_string({
+    "on_page_context_created": on_page_context_created,
+    "before_goto": before_goto
+})
+
+# Use with REST API
+payload = {
+    "urls": ["https://httpbin.org/html"],
+    "hooks": {"code": hooks_code, "timeout": 30}
+}
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:11235/crawl", json=payload)
+```
+
+**Option 2: Docker Client with Automatic Conversion (Recommended!)**
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai.docker_client import Crawl4aiDockerClient
+
+# Define hooks as functions (same as above)
+async def on_page_context_created(page, context, **kwargs):
+    await context.route("**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg,gif,webp}", lambda route: route.abort())
+    return page
+
+async def before_retrieve_html(page, context, **kwargs):
+    # Scroll to load lazy content
+    await page.evaluate("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)")
+    await page.wait_for_timeout(1000)
+    return page
+
+# Use Docker client - conversion happens automatically!
+client = Crawl4aiDockerClient(base_url="http://localhost:11235")
+
+results = await client.crawl(
+    urls=["https://httpbin.org/html"],
+    hooks={
+        "on_page_context_created": on_page_context_created,
+        "before_retrieve_html": before_retrieve_html
+    },
+    hooks_timeout=30
+)
+
+if results and results.success:
+    print(f"✅ Hooks executed! HTML length: {len(results.html)}")
+```
+
+**Benefits of Function-Based Hooks:**
+- ✅ Full IDE support (autocomplete, syntax highlighting)
+- ✅ Type checking and linting
+- ✅ Easier to test and debug
+- ✅ Reusable across projects
+- ✅ Automatic conversion in Docker client
+- ✅ No breaking changes - string hooks still work!
+
+## 🤖 Enhanced LLM Integration
+
+Enhanced LLM integration with custom providers, temperature control, and base URL configuration.
+
+### Multi-Provider Support
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CrawlerRunConfig
+from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import LLMExtractionStrategy
+
+# Test with different providers
+async def test_llm_providers():
+    # OpenAI with custom temperature
+    openai_strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
+        provider="gemini/gemini-2.5-flash-lite",
+        api_token="your-api-token",
+        temperature=0.7,  # New in v0.7.5
+        instruction="Summarize this page in one sentence"
+    )
+
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            "https://example.com",
+            config=CrawlerRunConfig(extraction_strategy=openai_strategy)
+        )
+
+        if result.success:
+            print("✅ LLM extraction completed")
+            print(result.extracted_content)
+
+# Docker API with enhanced LLM config
+llm_payload = {
+    "url": "https://example.com",
+    "f": "llm",
+    "q": "Summarize this page in one sentence.",
+    "provider": "gemini/gemini-2.5-flash-lite",
+    "temperature": 0.7
+}
+
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:11235/md", json=llm_payload)
+```
+
+**New Features:**
+- Custom `temperature` parameter for creativity control
+- `base_url` for custom API endpoints
+- Multi-provider environment variable support
+- Docker API integration
+
+## 🔒 HTTPS Preservation
+
+**The Problem:** Modern web apps require HTTPS everywhere. When crawlers downgrade internal links from HTTPS to HTTP, authentication breaks and security warnings appear.
+
+**Solution:** HTTPS preservation maintains secure protocols throughout crawling.
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CrawlerRunConfig, FilterChain, URLPatternFilter, BFSDeepCrawlStrategy
+
+async def test_https_preservation():
+    # Enable HTTPS preservation
+    url_filter = URLPatternFilter(
+        patterns=["^(https:\/\/)?quotes\.toscrape\.com(\/.*)?$"]
+    )
+
+    config = CrawlerRunConfig(
+        exclude_external_links=True,
+        preserve_https_for_internal_links=True,  # New in v0.7.5
+        deep_crawl_strategy=BFSDeepCrawlStrategy(
+            max_depth=2,
+            max_pages=5,
+            filter_chain=FilterChain([url_filter])
+        )
+    )
+
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        async for result in await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://quotes.toscrape.com",
+            config=config
+        ):
+            # All internal links maintain HTTPS
+            internal_links = [link['href'] for link in result.links['internal']]
+            https_links = [link for link in internal_links if link.startswith('https://')]
+
+            print(f"HTTPS links preserved: {len(https_links)}/{len(internal_links)}")
+            for link in https_links[:3]:
+                print(f"  → {link}")
+```
+

+# Crawl4AI v0.7.6 Release Notes
+
+*Release Date: October 22, 2025*
+
+I'm excited to announce Crawl4AI v0.7.6, featuring a complete webhook infrastructure for the Docker job queue API! This release eliminates polling and brings real-time notifications to both crawling and LLM extraction workflows.
+
+## 🎯 What's New
+
+### Webhook Support for Docker Job Queue API
+
+The headline feature of v0.7.6 is comprehensive webhook support for asynchronous job processing. No more constant polling to check if your jobs are done - get instant notifications when they complete!
+
+**Key Capabilities:**
+
+- ✅ **Universal Webhook Support**: Both `/crawl/job` and `/llm/job` endpoints now support webhooks
+- ✅ **Flexible Delivery Modes**: Choose notification-only or include full data in the webhook payload
+- ✅ **Reliable Delivery**: Exponential backoff retry mechanism (5 attempts: 1s → 2s → 4s → 8s → 16s)
+- ✅ **Custom Authentication**: Add custom headers for webhook authentication
+- ✅ **Global Configuration**: Set default webhook URL in `config.yml` for all jobs
+- ✅ **Task Type Identification**: Distinguish between `crawl` and `llm_extraction` tasks
+
+### How It Works
+
+Instead of constantly checking job status:
+
+**OLD WAY (Polling):**
+```python
+# Submit job
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:11235/crawl/job", json=payload)
+task_id = response.json()['task_id']
+
+# Poll until complete
+while True:
+    status = requests.get(f"http://localhost:11235/crawl/job/{task_id}")
+    if status.json()['status'] == 'completed':
+        break
+    time.sleep(5)  # Wait and try again
+```
+
+**NEW WAY (Webhooks):**
+```python
+# Submit job with webhook
+payload = {
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "webhook_config": {
+        "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhook",
+        "webhook_data_in_payload": True
+    }
+}
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:11235/crawl/job", json=payload)
+
+# Done! Webhook will notify you when complete
+# Your webhook handler receives the results automatically
+```
+
+### Crawl Job Webhooks
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/crawl/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "browser_config": {"headless": true},
+    "crawler_config": {"cache_mode": "bypass"},
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/crawl-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": false,
+      "webhook_headers": {
+        "X-Webhook-Secret": "your-secret-token"
+      }
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+### LLM Extraction Job Webhooks (NEW!)
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/llm/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "url": "https://example.com/article",
+    "q": "Extract the article title, author, and publication date",
+    "schema": "{\"type\":\"object\",\"properties\":{\"title\":{\"type\":\"string\"}}}",
+    "provider": "openai/gpt-4o-mini",
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/llm-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": true
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+### Webhook Payload Structure
+
+**Success (with data):**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "llm_1698765432",
+  "task_type": "llm_extraction",
+  "status": "completed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-22T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com/article"],
+  "data": {
+    "extracted_content": {
+      "title": "Understanding Web Scraping",
+      "author": "John Doe",
+      "date": "2025-10-22"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Failure:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_abc123",
+  "task_type": "crawl",
+  "status": "failed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-22T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+  "error": "Connection timeout after 30s"
+}
+```
+
+### Simple Webhook Handler Example
+
+```python
+from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
+
+app = Flask(__name__)
+
+@app.route('/webhook', methods=['POST'])
+def handle_webhook():
+    payload = request.json
+
+    task_id = payload['task_id']
+    task_type = payload['task_type']
+    status = payload['status']
+
+    if status == 'completed':
+        if 'data' in payload:
+            # Process data directly
+            data = payload['data']

+
+## 📊 Performance Improvements
+
+- **Reduced Server Load**: Eliminates constant polling requests
+- **Lower Latency**: Instant notification vs. polling interval delay
+- **Better Resource Usage**: Frees up client connections while jobs run in background
+- **Scalable Architecture**: Handles high-volume crawling workflows efficiently
+
+## 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+- Fixed webhook configuration serialization for Pydantic HttpUrl fields
+- Improved error handling in webhook delivery service
+- Enhanced Redis task storage for webhook config persistence
+
+## 🌍 Expected Real-World Impact
+
+### For Web Scraping Workflows
+- **Reduced Costs**: Less API calls = lower bandwidth and server costs
+- **Better UX**: Instant notifications improve user experience
+- **Scalability**: Handle 100s of concurrent jobs without polling overhead
+
+### For LLM Extraction Pipelines
+- **Async Processing**: Submit LLM extraction jobs and move on
+- **Batch Processing**: Queue multiple extractions, get notified as they complete
+- **Integration**: Easy integration with workflow automation tools (Zapier, n8n, etc.)
+
+### For Microservices
+- **Event-Driven**: Perfect for event-driven microservice architectures
+- **Decoupling**: Decouple job submission from result processing
+- **Reliability**: Automatic retries ensure webhooks are delivered
+
+## 🔄 Breaking Changes
+
+**None!** This release is fully backward compatible.
+
+- Webhook configuration is optional
+- Existing code continues to work without modification
+- Polling is still supported for jobs without webhook config
+
+## 📚 Documentation
+
+### New Documentation
+- **[WEBHOOK_EXAMPLES.md](../deploy/docker/WEBHOOK_EXAMPLES.md)** - Comprehensive webhook usage guide
+- **[docker_webhook_example.py](../docs/examples/docker_webhook_example.py)** - Working code examples
+
+### Updated Documentation
+- **[Docker README](../deploy/docker/README.md)** - Added webhook sections
+- API documentation with webhook examples
+
+## 🛠️ Migration Guide
+
+No migration needed! Webhooks are opt-in:
+
+1. **To use webhooks**: Add `webhook_config` to your job payload
+2. **To keep polling**: Continue using your existing code
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```python
+# Just add webhook_config to your existing payload
+payload = {
+    # Your existing configuration
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "browser_config": {...},
+    "crawler_config": {...},
+
+    # NEW: Add webhook configuration
+    "webhook_config": {
+        "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhook",
+        "webhook_data_in_payload": True
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## 🔧 Configuration
+
+### Global Webhook Configuration (config.yml)
+
+```yaml
+webhooks:
+  enabled: true
+  default_url: "https://myapp.com/webhooks/default"  # Optional
+  data_in_payload: false
+  retry:
+    max_attempts: 5
+    initial_delay_ms: 1000
+    max_delay_ms: 32000
+    timeout_ms: 30000
+  headers:
+    User-Agent: "Crawl4AI-Webhook/1.0"
+```
+
+## 🚀 Upgrade Instructions
+
+### Docker
+
+```bash
+# Pull the latest image
+docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:0.7.6
+
+# Or use latest tag
+docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:latest
+
+# Run with webhook support
+docker run -d \
+  -p 11235:11235 \
+  --env-file .llm.env \
+  --name crawl4ai \
+  unclecode/crawl4ai:0.7.6
+```
+
+### Python Package
+
+```bash
+pip install --upgrade crawl4ai
+```
+
+## 💡 Pro Tips
+
+1. **Use notification-only mode** for large results - fetch data separately to avoid large webhook payloads
+2. **Set custom headers** for webhook authentication and request tracking
+3. **Configure global default webhook** for consistent handling across all jobs
+4. **Implement idempotent webhook handlers** - same webhook may be delivered multiple times on retry
+5. **Use structured schemas** with LLM extraction for predictable webhook data
+
+## 🎬 Demo
+
+Try the release demo:
+
+```bash
+python docs/releases_review/demo_v0.7.6.py
+```
+
+This comprehensive demo showcases:
+- Crawl job webhooks (notification-only and with data)
+- LLM extraction webhooks (with JSON schema support)
+- Custom headers for authentication
+- Webhook retry mechanism
+- Real-time webhook receiver

+Docker Webhook Example for Crawl4AI
+
+This example demonstrates how to use webhooks with the Crawl4AI job queue API.
+Instead of polling for results, webhooks notify your application when jobs complete.
+
+Supports both:
+- /crawl/job - Raw crawling with markdown extraction
+- /llm/job - LLM-powered content extraction
+
+Prerequisites:
+1. Crawl4AI Docker container running on localhost:11235
+2. Flask installed: pip install flask requests
+3. LLM API key configured in .llm.env (for LLM extraction examples)
+
+Usage:
+1. Run this script: python docker_webhook_example.py
+2. The webhook server will start on http://localhost:8080
+3. Jobs will be submitted and webhooks will be received automatically

+### Creating a Profile Using the Crawl4AI CLI (Easiest)
+
+If you prefer a guided, interactive setup, use the built-in CLI to create and manage persistent browser profiles.
+
+1.⠀Launch the profile manager:
+   ```bash
+   crwl profiles
+   ```
+
+2.⠀Choose "Create new profile" and enter a profile name. A Chromium window opens so you can log in to sites and configure settings. When finished, return to the terminal and press `q` to save the profile.
+
+3.⠀Profiles are saved under `~/.crawl4ai/profiles/<profile_name>` (for example: `/home/<you>/.crawl4ai/profiles/test_profile_1`) along with a `storage_state.json` for cookies and session data.
+
+4.⠀Optionally, choose "List profiles" in the CLI to view available profiles and their paths.
+
+5.⠀Use the saved path with `BrowserConfig.user_data_dir`:
+   ```python
+   from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, BrowserConfig
+
+   profile_path = "/home/<you>/.crawl4ai/profiles/test_profile_1"
+
+   browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+       headless=True,
+       use_managed_browser=True,
+       user_data_dir=profile_path,
+       browser_type="chromium",
+   )
+
+   async with AsyncWebCrawler(config=browser_config) as crawler:
+       result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com/private")
+   ```
+
+The CLI also supports listing and deleting profiles, and even testing a crawl directly from the menu.

+# Crawl4AI v0.7.6 Release Notes
+
+*Release Date: October 22, 2025*
+
+I'm excited to announce Crawl4AI v0.7.6, featuring a complete webhook infrastructure for the Docker job queue API! This release eliminates polling and brings real-time notifications to both crawling and LLM extraction workflows.
+
+## 🎯 What's New
+
+### Webhook Support for Docker Job Queue API
+
+The headline feature of v0.7.6 is comprehensive webhook support for asynchronous job processing. No more constant polling to check if your jobs are done - get instant notifications when they complete!
+
+**Key Capabilities:**
+
+- ✅ **Universal Webhook Support**: Both `/crawl/job` and `/llm/job` endpoints now support webhooks
+- ✅ **Flexible Delivery Modes**: Choose notification-only or include full data in the webhook payload
+- ✅ **Reliable Delivery**: Exponential backoff retry mechanism (5 attempts: 1s → 2s → 4s → 8s → 16s)
+- ✅ **Custom Authentication**: Add custom headers for webhook authentication
+- ✅ **Global Configuration**: Set default webhook URL in `config.yml` for all jobs
+- ✅ **Task Type Identification**: Distinguish between `crawl` and `llm_extraction` tasks
+
+### How It Works
+
+Instead of constantly checking job status:
+
+**OLD WAY (Polling):**
+```python
+# Submit job
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:11235/crawl/job", json=payload)
+task_id = response.json()['task_id']
+
+# Poll until complete
+while True:
+    status = requests.get(f"http://localhost:11235/crawl/job/{task_id}")
+    if status.json()['status'] == 'completed':
+        break
+    time.sleep(5)  # Wait and try again
+```
+
+**NEW WAY (Webhooks):**
+```python
+# Submit job with webhook
+payload = {
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "webhook_config": {
+        "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhook",
+        "webhook_data_in_payload": True
+    }
+}
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:11235/crawl/job", json=payload)
+
+# Done! Webhook will notify you when complete
+# Your webhook handler receives the results automatically
+```
+
+### Crawl Job Webhooks
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/crawl/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "browser_config": {"headless": true},
+    "crawler_config": {"cache_mode": "bypass"},
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/crawl-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": false,
+      "webhook_headers": {
+        "X-Webhook-Secret": "your-secret-token"
+      }
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+### LLM Extraction Job Webhooks (NEW!)
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:11235/llm/job \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "url": "https://example.com/article",
+    "q": "Extract the article title, author, and publication date",
+    "schema": "{\"type\":\"object\",\"properties\":{\"title\":{\"type\":\"string\"}}}",
+    "provider": "openai/gpt-4o-mini",
+    "webhook_config": {
+      "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhooks/llm-complete",
+      "webhook_data_in_payload": true
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+### Webhook Payload Structure
+
+**Success (with data):**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "llm_1698765432",
+  "task_type": "llm_extraction",
+  "status": "completed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-22T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com/article"],
+  "data": {
+    "extracted_content": {
+      "title": "Understanding Web Scraping",
+      "author": "John Doe",
+      "date": "2025-10-22"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Failure:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_abc123",
+  "task_type": "crawl",
+  "status": "failed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-22T10:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+  "error": "Connection timeout after 30s"
+}
+```
+
+### Simple Webhook Handler Example
+
+```python
+from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
+
+app = Flask(__name__)
+
+@app.route('/webhook', methods=['POST'])
+def handle_webhook():
+    payload = request.json
+
+    task_id = payload['task_id']
+    task_type = payload['task_type']
+    status = payload['status']
+
+    if status == 'completed':
+        if 'data' in payload:
+            # Process data directly
+            data = payload['data']
+        else:
+            # Fetch from API
+            endpoint = 'crawl' if task_type == 'crawl' else 'llm'
+            response = requests.get(f'http://localhost:11235/{endpoint}/job/{task_id}')
+            data = response.json()
+
+        # Your business logic here
+        print(f"Job {task_id} completed!")
+
+    elif status == 'failed':
+        error = payload.get('error', 'Unknown error')
+        print(f"Job {task_id} failed: {error}")
+
+    return jsonify({"status": "received"}), 200
+
+app.run(port=8080)
+```
+
+## 📊 Performance Improvements
+
+- **Reduced Server Load**: Eliminates constant polling requests
+- **Lower Latency**: Instant notification vs. polling interval delay
+- **Better Resource Usage**: Frees up client connections while jobs run in background
+- **Scalable Architecture**: Handles high-volume crawling workflows efficiently
+
+## 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+- Fixed webhook configuration serialization for Pydantic HttpUrl fields

+
+## 📚 Documentation
+
+### New Documentation
+- **[WEBHOOK_EXAMPLES.md](../deploy/docker/WEBHOOK_EXAMPLES.md)** - Comprehensive webhook usage guide
+- **[docker_webhook_example.py](../docs/examples/docker_webhook_example.py)** - Working code examples
+
+### Updated Documentation
+- **[Docker README](../deploy/docker/README.md)** - Added webhook sections
+- API documentation with webhook examples
+
+## 🛠️ Migration Guide
+
+No migration needed! Webhooks are opt-in:
+
+1. **To use webhooks**: Add `webhook_config` to your job payload
+2. **To keep polling**: Continue using your existing code
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```python
+# Just add webhook_config to your existing payload
+payload = {
+    # Your existing configuration
+    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+    "browser_config": {...},
+    "crawler_config": {...},
+
+    # NEW: Add webhook configuration
+    "webhook_config": {
+        "webhook_url": "https://myapp.com/webhook",
+        "webhook_data_in_payload": True
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## 🔧 Configuration
+
+### Global Webhook Configuration (config.yml)
+
+```yaml
+webhooks:
+  enabled: true
+  default_url: "https://myapp.com/webhooks/default"  # Optional
+  data_in_payload: false
+  retry:
+    max_attempts: 5
+    initial_delay_ms: 1000
+    max_delay_ms: 32000
+    timeout_ms: 30000
+  headers:
+    User-Agent: "Crawl4AI-Webhook/1.0"
+```
+
+## 🚀 Upgrade Instructions
+
+### Docker
+
+```bash
+# Pull the latest image
+docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:0.7.6
+
+# Or use latest tag
+docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:latest
+
+# Run with webhook support
+docker run -d \
+  -p 11235:11235 \
+  --env-file .llm.env \
+  --name crawl4ai \
+  unclecode/crawl4ai:0.7.6
+```
+
+### Python Package
+
+```bash
+pip install --upgrade crawl4ai
+```
+
+## 💡 Pro Tips
+
+1. **Use notification-only mode** for large results - fetch data separately to avoid large webhook payloads
+2. **Set custom headers** for webhook authentication and request tracking
+3. **Configure global default webhook** for consistent handling across all jobs
+4. **Implement idempotent webhook handlers** - same webhook may be delivered multiple times on retry
+5. **Use structured schemas** with LLM extraction for predictable webhook data
+
+## 🎬 Demo

+# 🚀 Crawl4AI v0.7.5: The Docker Hooks & Security Update
+
+*September 29, 2025 • 8 min read*
+
+---
+
+Today I'm releasing Crawl4AI v0.7.5—focused on extensibility and security. This update introduces the Docker Hooks System for pipeline customization, enhanced LLM integration, and important security improvements.
+
+## 🎯 What's New at a Glance
+
+- **Docker Hooks System**: Custom Python functions at key pipeline points with function-based API
+- **Function-Based Hooks**: New `hooks_to_string()` utility with Docker client auto-conversion
+- **Enhanced LLM Integration**: Custom providers with temperature control
+- **HTTPS Preservation**: Secure internal link handling
+- **Bug Fixes**: Resolved multiple community-reported issues
+- **Improved Docker Error Handling**: Better debugging and reliability
+
+## 🔧 Docker Hooks System: Pipeline Customization
+
+Every scraping project needs custom logic—authentication, performance optimization, content processing. Traditional solutions require forking or complex workarounds. Docker Hooks let you inject custom Python functions at 8 key points in the crawling pipeline.
+
+### Real Example: Authentication & Performance
+
+```python
+import requests
+
+# Real working hooks for httpbin.org
+hooks_config = {
+    "on_page_context_created": """
+async def hook(page, context, **kwargs):
+    print("Hook: Setting up page context")
+    # Block images to speed up crawling
+    await context.route("**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg,gif,webp}", lambda route: route.abort())
+    print("Hook: Images blocked")
+    return page
+""",
+
+    "before_retrieve_html": """
+async def hook(page, context, **kwargs):
+    print("Hook: Before retrieving HTML")
+    # Scroll to bottom to load lazy content
+    await page.evaluate("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)")
+    await page.wait_for_timeout(1000)
+    print("Hook: Scrolled to bottom")
+    return page
+""",
+
+    "before_goto": """
+async def hook(page, context, url, **kwargs):
+    print(f"Hook: About to navigate to {url}")
+    # Add custom headers
+    await page.set_extra_http_headers({
+        'X-Test-Header': 'crawl4ai-hooks-test'
+    })
+    return page
+"""
+}
+
+# Test with Docker API
+payload = {
+    "urls": ["https://httpbin.org/html"],
+    "hooks": {
+        "code": hooks_config,

+result = response.json()
+
+if result.get('success'):
+    print("✅ Hooks executed successfully!")
+    print(f"Content length: {len(result.get('markdown', ''))} characters")
+```
+
+**Available Hook Points:**
+- `on_browser_created`: Browser setup
+- `on_page_context_created`: Page context configuration
+- `before_goto`: Pre-navigation setup
+- `after_goto`: Post-navigation processing
+- `on_user_agent_updated`: User agent changes
+- `on_execution_started`: Crawl initialization
+- `before_retrieve_html`: Pre-extraction processing
+- `before_return_html`: Final HTML processing
+
+### Function-Based Hooks API
+
+Writing hooks as strings works, but lacks IDE support and type checking. v0.7.5 introduces a function-based approach with automatic conversion!
+
+**Option 1: Using the `hooks_to_string()` Utility**
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import hooks_to_string
+import requests
+
+# Define hooks as regular Python functions (with full IDE support!)
+async def on_page_context_created(page, context, **kwargs):
+    """Block images to speed up crawling"""
+    await context.route("**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg,gif,webp}", lambda route: route.abort())
+    await page.set_viewport_size({"width": 1920, "height": 1080})
+    return page
+
+async def before_goto(page, context, url, **kwargs):
+    """Add custom headers"""
+    await page.set_extra_http_headers({
+        'X-Crawl4AI': 'v0.7.5',
+        'X-Custom-Header': 'my-value'
+    })
+    return page
+
+# Convert functions to strings
+hooks_code = hooks_to_string({
+    "on_page_context_created": on_page_context_created,
+    "before_goto": before_goto
+})
+
+# Use with REST API
+payload = {
+    "urls": ["https://httpbin.org/html"],
+    "hooks": {"code": hooks_code, "timeout": 30}
+}
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:11235/crawl", json=payload)
+```
+
+**Option 2: Docker Client with Automatic Conversion (Recommended!)**
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai.docker_client import Crawl4aiDockerClient
+
+# Define hooks as functions (same as above)
+async def on_page_context_created(page, context, **kwargs):
+    await context.route("**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg,gif,webp}", lambda route: route.abort())
+    return page
+
+async def before_retrieve_html(page, context, **kwargs):
+    # Scroll to load lazy content
+    await page.evaluate("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)")
+    await page.wait_for_timeout(1000)
+    return page
+
+# Use Docker client - conversion happens automatically!
+client = Crawl4aiDockerClient(base_url="http://localhost:11235")
+
+results = await client.crawl(
+    urls=["https://httpbin.org/html"],
+    hooks={
+        "on_page_context_created": on_page_context_created,
+        "before_retrieve_html": before_retrieve_html
+    },
+    hooks_timeout=30
+)
+
+if results and results.success:
+    print(f"✅ Hooks executed! HTML length: {len(results.html)}")
+```
+
+**Benefits of Function-Based Hooks:**
+- ✅ Full IDE support (autocomplete, syntax highlighting)
+- ✅ Type checking and linting
+- ✅ Easier to test and debug
+- ✅ Reusable across projects
+- ✅ Automatic conversion in Docker client
+- ✅ No breaking changes - string hooks still work!
+
+## 🤖 Enhanced LLM Integration
+
+Enhanced LLM integration with custom providers, temperature control, and base URL configuration.
+
+### Multi-Provider Support
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CrawlerRunConfig
+from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import LLMExtractionStrategy
+
+# Test with different providers
+async def test_llm_providers():
+    # OpenAI with custom temperature
+    openai_strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
+        provider="gemini/gemini-2.5-flash-lite",
+        api_token="your-api-token",
+        temperature=0.7,  # New in v0.7.5
+        instruction="Summarize this page in one sentence"
+    )
+
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            "https://example.com",
+            config=CrawlerRunConfig(extraction_strategy=openai_strategy)
+        )
+
+        if result.success:
+            print("✅ LLM extraction completed")
+            print(result.extracted_content)
+
+# Docker API with enhanced LLM config
+llm_payload = {
+    "url": "https://example.com",
+    "f": "llm",
+    "q": "Summarize this page in one sentence.",
+    "provider": "gemini/gemini-2.5-flash-lite",
+    "temperature": 0.7
+}
+
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:11235/md", json=llm_payload)
+```
+
+**New Features:**
+- Custom `temperature` parameter for creativity control
+- `base_url` for custom API endpoints
+- Multi-provider environment variable support
+- Docker API integration
+
+## 🔒 HTTPS Preservation
+
+**The Problem:** Modern web apps require HTTPS everywhere. When crawlers downgrade internal links from HTTPS to HTTP, authentication breaks and security warnings appear.
+
+**Solution:** HTTPS preservation maintains secure protocols throughout crawling.
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CrawlerRunConfig, FilterChain, URLPatternFilter, BFSDeepCrawlStrategy
+
+async def test_https_preservation():
+    # Enable HTTPS preservation
+    url_filter = URLPatternFilter(
+        patterns=["^(https:\/\/)?quotes\.toscrape\.com(\/.*)?$"]
+    )
+
+    config = CrawlerRunConfig(
+        exclude_external_links=True,
+        preserve_https_for_internal_links=True,  # New in v0.7.5
+        deep_crawl_strategy=BFSDeepCrawlStrategy(
+            max_depth=2,
+            max_pages=5,
+            filter_chain=FilterChain([url_filter])
+        )
+    )
+
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        async for result in await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://quotes.toscrape.com",
+            config=config
+        ):
+            # All internal links maintain HTTPS
+            internal_links = [link['href'] for link in result.links['internal']]
+            https_links = [link for link in internal_links if link.startswith('https://')]
+
+            print(f"HTTPS links preserved: {len(https_links)}/{len(internal_links)}")
+            for link in https_links[:3]:
+                print(f"  → {link}")
+```
+

+## Job Queue & Webhook API
+
+The Docker deployment includes a powerful asynchronous job queue system with webhook support for both crawling and LLM extraction tasks. Instead of waiting for long-running operations to complete, submit jobs and receive real-time notifications via webhooks when they finish.
+
+### Why Use the Job Queue API?
+
+**Traditional Synchronous API (`/crawl`):**
+- Client waits for entire crawl to complete
+- Timeout issues with long-running crawls
+- Resource blocking during execution
+- Constant polling required for status updates
+
+**Asynchronous Job Queue API (`/crawl/job`, `/llm/job`):**
+- ✅ Submit job and continue immediately
+- ✅ No timeout concerns for long operations
+- ✅ Real-time webhook notifications on completion
+- ✅ Better resource utilization
+- ✅ Perfect for batch processing
+- ✅ Ideal for microservice architectures
+
+### Available Endpoints
+
+#### 1. Crawl Job Endpoint
+
+```
+POST /crawl/job
+```
+
+Submit an asynchronous crawl job with optional webhook notification.
+
+**Request Body:**
+```json
+{
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+  "cache_mode": "bypass",
+  "extraction_strategy": {
+    "type": "JsonCssExtractionStrategy",
+    "schema": {
+      "title": "h1",
+      "content": ".article-body"
+    }
+  },
+  "webhook_config": {
+    "webhook_url": "https://your-app.com/webhook/crawl-complete",
+    "webhook_data_in_payload": true,
+    "webhook_headers": {
+      "X-Webhook-Secret": "your-secret-token",
+      "X-Custom-Header": "value"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_1698765432",
+  "message": "Crawl job submitted"
+}
+```
+
+#### 2. LLM Extraction Job Endpoint
+
+```
+POST /llm/job
+```
+
+Submit an asynchronous LLM extraction job with optional webhook notification.
+
+**Request Body:**
+```json
+{
+  "url": "https://example.com/article",
+  "q": "Extract the article title, author, publication date, and main points",
+  "provider": "openai/gpt-4o-mini",
+  "schema": "{\"title\": \"string\", \"author\": \"string\", \"date\": \"string\", \"points\": [\"string\"]}",
+  "cache": false,
+  "webhook_config": {
+    "webhook_url": "https://your-app.com/webhook/llm-complete",
+    "webhook_data_in_payload": true,
+    "webhook_headers": {
+      "X-Webhook-Secret": "your-secret-token"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "llm_1698765432",
+  "message": "LLM job submitted"
+}
+```
+
+#### 3. Job Status Endpoint
+
+```
+GET /job/{task_id}
+```
+
+Check the status and retrieve results of a submitted job.
+
+**Response (In Progress):**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_1698765432",
+  "status": "processing",
+  "message": "Job is being processed"
+}
+```
+
+**Response (Completed):**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_1698765432",

+  "result": {
+    "markdown": "# Page Title\n\nContent...",
+    "extracted_content": {...},
+    "links": {...}
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Webhook Configuration
+
+Webhooks provide real-time notifications when your jobs complete, eliminating the need for constant polling.
+
+#### Webhook Config Parameters
+
+| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
+|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
+| `webhook_url` | string | Yes | Your HTTP(S) endpoint to receive notifications |
+| `webhook_data_in_payload` | boolean | No | Include full result data in webhook payload (default: false) |
+| `webhook_headers` | object | No | Custom headers for authentication/identification |
+
+#### Webhook Payload Format
+
+**Success Notification (Crawl Job):**
+```json
+{
+  "task_id": "crawl_1698765432",
+  "task_type": "crawl",
+  "status": "completed",
+  "timestamp": "2025-10-22T12:30:00.000000+00:00",
+  "urls": ["https://example.com"],

+- **Success Status Codes:** 200-299
+- **Custom Headers:** Your `webhook_headers` are included in every request
+
+### Usage Examples
+
+#### Example 1: Python with Webhook Handler (Flask)
+
+```python
+from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
+import requests
+
+app = Flask(__name__)
+
+# Webhook handler
+@app.route('/webhook/crawl-complete', methods=['POST'])
+def handle_crawl_webhook():
+    payload = request.json
+
+    if payload['status'] == 'completed':
+        print(f"✅ Job {payload['task_id']} completed!")
+        print(f"Task type: {payload['task_type']}")
+
+        # Access the crawl results
+        if 'data' in payload:
+            markdown = payload['data'].get('markdown', '')
+            extracted = payload['data'].get('extracted_content', {})
+            print(f"Extracted {len(markdown)} characters")
+            print(f"Structured data: {extracted}")
+    else:
+        print(f"❌ Job {payload['task_id']} failed: {payload.get('error')}")
+
+    return jsonify({"status": "received"}), 200
+
+# Submit a crawl job with webhook
+def submit_crawl_job():
+    response = requests.post(
+        "http://localhost:11235/crawl/job",
+        json={
+            "urls": ["https://example.com"],
+            "extraction_strategy": {
+                "type": "JsonCssExtractionStrategy",
+                "schema": {
+                    "name": "Example Schema",
+                    "baseSelector": "body",
+                    "fields": [
+                        {"name": "title", "selector": "h1", "type": "text"},
+                        {"name": "description", "selector": "meta[name='description']", "type": "attribute", "attribute": "content"}
+                    ]
+                }
+            },
+            "webhook_config": {
+                "webhook_url": "https://your-app.com/webhook/crawl-complete",
+                "webhook_data_in_payload": True,
+                "webhook_headers": {
+                    "X-Webhook-Secret": "your-secret-token"
+                }
+            }
+        }
+    )
+
+    task_id = response.json()['task_id']
+    print(f"Job submitted: {task_id}")
+    return task_id
+
+if __name__ == '__main__':
+    app.run(port=5000)
+```
+
+#### Example 2: LLM Extraction with Webhooks
+
+```python
+import requests
+
+def submit_llm_job_with_webhook():
+    response = requests.post(
+        "http://localhost:11235/llm/job",
+        json={
+            "url": "https://example.com/article",
+            "q": "Extract the article title, author, and main points",
+            "provider": "openai/gpt-4o-mini",
+            "webhook_config": {
+                "webhook_url": "https://your-app.com/webhook/llm-complete",
+                "webhook_data_in_payload": True,
+                "webhook_headers": {
+                    "X-Webhook-Secret": "your-secret-token"
+                }
+            }
+        }
+    )
+
+    task_id = response.json()['task_id']
+    print(f"LLM job submitted: {task_id}")
+    return task_id
+
+# Webhook handler for LLM jobs
+@app.route('/webhook/llm-complete', methods=['POST'])
+def handle_llm_webhook():
+    payload = request.json
+
+    if payload['status'] == 'completed':
+        extracted = payload['data']['extracted_content']
+        print(f"✅ LLM extraction completed!")
+        print(f"Results: {extracted}")
+    else:
+        print(f"❌ LLM extraction failed: {payload.get('error')}")
+
+    return jsonify({"status": "received"}), 200
+```
+
+#### Example 3: Without Webhooks (Polling)
+
+If you don't use webhooks, you can poll for results:
+
+```python
+import requests
+import time
+
+# Submit job
+response = requests.post(
+    "http://localhost:11235/crawl/job",
+    json={"urls": ["https://example.com"]}
+)
+task_id = response.json()['task_id']
+
+# Poll for results
+while True:
+    result = requests.get(f"http://localhost:11235/job/{task_id}")
+    data = result.json()
+
+    if data['status'] == 'completed':
+        print("Job completed!")
+        print(data['result'])
+        break
+    elif data['status'] == 'failed':
+        print(f"Job failed: {data.get('error')}")
+        break
+
+    print("Still processing...")
+    time.sleep(2)
+```
+
+#### Example 4: Global Webhook Configuration
+
+Set a default webhook URL in your `config.yml` to avoid repeating it in every request:
+
+```yaml
+# config.yml
+api:
+  crawler:
+    # ... other settings ...
+    webhook:
+      default_url: "https://your-app.com/webhook/default"
+      default_headers:
+        X-Webhook-Secret: "your-secret-token"
+```
+
+Then submit jobs without webhook config:
+
+```python
+# Uses the global webhook configuration
+response = requests.post(
+    "http://localhost:11235/crawl/job",
+    json={"urls": ["https://example.com"]}
+)
+```
+
+### Webhook Best Practices
+
+1. **Authentication:** Always use custom headers for webhook authentication
+   ```json
+   "webhook_headers": {
+     "X-Webhook-Secret": "your-secret-token"
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Idempotency:** Design your webhook handler to be idempotent (safe to receive duplicate notifications)
+
+3. **Fast Response:** Return HTTP 200 quickly; process data asynchronously if needed
+   ```python
+   @app.route('/webhook', methods=['POST'])
+   def webhook():
+       payload = request.json
+       # Queue for background processing
+       queue.enqueue(process_webhook, payload)
+       return jsonify({"status": "received"}), 200
+   ```
+
+4. **Error Handling:** Handle both success and failure notifications
+   ```python
+   if payload['status'] == 'completed':
+       # Process success
+   elif payload['status'] == 'failed':
+       # Log error, retry, or alert
+   ```
+
+5. **Validation:** Verify webhook authenticity using custom headers
+   ```python
+   secret = request.headers.get('X-Webhook-Secret')
+   if secret != os.environ['EXPECTED_SECRET']:
+       return jsonify({"error": "Unauthorized"}), 401
+   ```
+
+6. **Logging:** Log webhook deliveries for debugging
+   ```python
+   logger.info(f"Webhook received: {payload['task_id']} - {payload['status']}")
+   ```
+
+### Use Cases
+
+**1. Batch Processing**
+Submit hundreds of URLs and get notified as each completes:
+```python
+urls = ["https://site1.com", "https://site2.com", ...]
+for url in urls:
+    submit_crawl_job(url, webhook_url="https://app.com/webhook")
+```
+
+**2. Microservice Integration**
+Integrate with event-driven architectures:
+```python
+# Service A submits job
+task_id = submit_crawl_job(url)
+
+# Service B receives webhook and triggers next step
+@app.route('/webhook')
+def webhook():
+    process_result(request.json)
+    trigger_next_service()
+    return "OK", 200
+```
+
+**3. Long-Running Extractions**
+Handle complex LLM extractions without timeouts:
+```python
+submit_llm_job(
+    url="https://long-article.com",
+    q="Comprehensive summary with key points and analysis",
+    webhook_url="https://app.com/webhook/llm"
+)
+```
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+**Webhook not receiving notifications?**
+- Check your webhook URL is publicly accessible
+- Verify firewall/security group settings
+- Use webhook testing tools like webhook.site for debugging
+- Check server logs for delivery attempts
+- Ensure your handler returns 200-299 status code
+
+**Job stuck in processing?**
+- Check Redis connection: `docker logs <container_name> | grep redis`
+- Verify worker processes: `docker exec <container_name> ps aux | grep worker`
+- Check server logs: `docker logs <container_name>`
+
+**Need to cancel a job?**
+Jobs are processed asynchronously. If you need to cancel:
+- Delete the task from Redis (requires Redis CLI access)
+- Or implement a cancellation endpoint in your webhook handler
+

+Crawl4AI v0.7.6 Release Demo
+============================
+
+This demo showcases the major feature in v0.7.6:
+**Webhook Support for Docker Job Queue API**
+
+Features Demonstrated:
+1. Asynchronous job processing with webhook notifications
+2. Webhook support for /crawl/job endpoint
+3. Webhook support for /llm/job endpoint
+4. Notification-only vs data-in-payload modes
+5. Custom webhook headers for authentication
+6. Structured extraction with JSON schemas
+7. Exponential backoff retry for reliable delivery
+
+Prerequisites:
+- Crawl4AI Docker container running on localhost:11235
+- Flask installed: pip install flask requests
+- LLM API key configured (for LLM examples)
+
+Usage:
+python docs/releases_review/demo_v0.7.6.py

+🚀 Crawl4AI v0.7.5 - Docker Hooks System Complete Demonstration
+================================================================
+
+This file demonstrates the NEW Docker Hooks System introduced in v0.7.5.
+
+The Docker Hooks System is a completely NEW feature that provides pipeline
+customization through user-provided Python functions. It offers three approaches:
+
+1. String-based hooks for REST API
+2. hooks_to_string() utility to convert functions
+3. Docker Client with automatic conversion (most convenient)
+
+All three approaches are part of this NEW v0.7.5 feature!
+
+Perfect for video recording and demonstration purposes.
+

+# Webhook Feature Test Script
+
+This directory contains a comprehensive test script for the webhook feature implementation.
+
+## Overview
+
+The `test_webhook_feature.sh` script automates the entire process of testing the webhook feature:
+
+1. ✅ Fetches and switches to the webhook feature branch
+2. ✅ Activates the virtual environment
+3. ✅ Installs all required dependencies
+4. ✅ Starts Redis server in background
+5. ✅ Starts Crawl4AI server in background
+6. ✅ Runs webhook integration test
+7. ✅ Verifies job completion via webhook
+8. ✅ Cleans up and returns to original branch
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Python 3.10+
+- Virtual environment already created (`venv/` in project root)
+- Git repository with the webhook feature branch
+- `redis-server` (script will attempt to install if missing)
+- `curl` and `lsof` commands available
+
+## Usage
+
+### Quick Start
+
+From the project root:
+
+```bash
+./tests/test_webhook_feature.sh
+```
+
+Or from the tests directory:
+
+```bash
+cd tests
+./test_webhook_feature.sh
+```
+
+### What the Script Does
+
+#### Step 1: Branch Management
+- Saves your current branch
+- Fetches the webhook feature branch from remote
+- Switches to the webhook feature branch
+
+#### Step 2: Environment Setup
+- Activates your existing virtual environment
+- Installs dependencies from `deploy/docker/requirements.txt`
+- Installs Flask for the webhook receiver
+
+#### Step 3: Service Startup
+- Starts Redis server on port 6379
+- Starts Crawl4AI server on port 11235
+- Waits for server health check to pass
+
+#### Step 4: Webhook Test
+- Creates a webhook receiver on port 8080
+- Submits a crawl job for `https://example.com` with webhook config
+- Waits for webhook notification (60s timeout)
+- Verifies webhook payload contains expected data
+
+#### Step 5: Cleanup
+- Stops webhook receiver
+- Stops Crawl4AI server
+- Stops Redis server
+- Returns to your original branch
+
+## Expected Output
+
+```

+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Server Failed to Start
+
+If the server fails to start, check the logs:
+
+```bash
+tail -100 /tmp/crawl4ai_server.log
+```
+
+Common issues:
+- Port 11235 already in use: `lsof -ti:11235 | xargs kill -9`
+- Missing dependencies: Check that all packages are installed
+
+### Redis Connection Failed
+
+Check if Redis is running:
+
+```bash
+redis-cli ping
+# Should return: PONG
+```
+
+If not running:
+
+```bash
+redis-server --port 6379 --daemonize yes
+```
+
+### Webhook Not Received
+
+The script has a 60-second timeout for webhook delivery. If the webhook isn't received:
+
+1. Check server logs: `/tmp/crawl4ai_server.log`
+2. Verify webhook receiver is running on port 8080
+3. Check network connectivity between components
+
+### Script Interruption
+
+If the script is interrupted (Ctrl+C), cleanup happens automatically via trap. The script will:
+- Kill all background processes
+- Stop Redis
+- Return to your original branch
+
+To manually cleanup if needed:
+
+```bash
+# Kill processes by port
+lsof -ti:11235 | xargs kill -9  # Server
+lsof -ti:8080 | xargs kill -9   # Webhook receiver
+lsof -ti:6379 | xargs kill -9   # Redis
+
+# Return to your branch
+git checkout develop  # or your branch name
+```
+
+## Testing Different URLs
+
+To test with a different URL, modify the script or create a custom test:
+
+```python
+payload = {
+    "urls": ["https://your-url-here.com"],
+    "browser_config": {"headless": True},
+    "crawler_config": {"cache_mode": "bypass"},
+    "webhook_config": {
+        "webhook_url": "http://localhost:8080/webhook",
+        "webhook_data_in_payload": True
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Files Generated
+
+The script creates temporary files:
+
+- `/tmp/crawl4ai_server.log` - Server output logs
+- `/tmp/test_webhook.py` - Webhook test Python script
+
+These are not cleaned up automatically so you can review them after the test.
+
+## Exit Codes
+
+- `0` - All tests passed successfully
+- `1` - Test failed (check output for details)
+
+## Safety Features
+
+- ✅ Automatic cleanup on exit, interrupt, or error
+- ✅ Returns to original branch on completion
+- ✅ Kills all background processes
+- ✅ Comprehensive error handling
+- ✅ Colored output for easy reading
+- ✅ Detailed logging at each step
+
+## Notes
+
+- The script uses `set -e` to exit on any command failure
+- All background processes are tracked and cleaned up
+- The virtual environment must exist before running
+- Redis must be available (installed or installable via apt-get/brew)
+
+## Integration with CI/CD
+
+This script can be integrated into CI/CD pipelines:
+
+```yaml
+# Example GitHub Actions
+- name: Test Webhook Feature
+  run: |
+    chmod +x tests/test_webhook_feature.sh
+    ./tests/test_webhook_feature.sh
+```
+
+## Support
+
+If you encounter issues:
+
+1. Check the troubleshooting section above
+2. Review server logs at `/tmp/crawl4ai_server.log`
+3. Ensure all prerequisites are met
+4. Open an issue with the full output of the script
