+### Added
+- **Flexible LLM Provider Configuration** (Docker): 
+  - Support for `LLM_PROVIDER` environment variable to override default provider
+  - Per-request provider override via optional `provider` parameter in API endpoints
+  - Automatic provider validation with clear error messages
+  - Updated Docker documentation and examples
+
+### Changed
+- **WebScrapingStrategy Refactoring**: Simplified content scraping architecture
+  - `WebScrapingStrategy` is now an alias for `LXMLWebScrapingStrategy` for backward compatibility
+  - Removed redundant BeautifulSoup-based implementation (~1000 lines of code)
+  - `LXMLWebScrapingStrategy` now inherits directly from `ContentScrapingStrategy`
+  - All existing code using `WebScrapingStrategy` continues to work without modification
+  - Default scraping strategy remains `LXMLWebScrapingStrategy` for optimal performance

+- **🌊 Virtual Scroll Support**: Complete content extraction from infinite scroll pages:
+  ```python
+  scroll_config = VirtualScrollConfig(
+      container_selector="[data-testid='feed']",
+      scroll_count=20,
+      scroll_by="container_height",

+  )
+  
+  result = await crawler.arun(url, config=CrawlerRunConfig(
+      virtual_scroll_config=scroll_config
+  ))
+  ```
+
+- **🔗 Intelligent Link Analysis**: 3-layer scoring system for smart link prioritization:
+  ```python
+  link_config = LinkPreviewConfig(
+      query="machine learning tutorials",
+      score_threshold=0.3,
+      concurrent_requests=10
+  )
+  
+  result = await crawler.arun(url, config=CrawlerRunConfig(
+      link_preview_config=link_config,
+      score_links=True
+  ))
+  # Links ranked by relevance and quality
+  ```
+
+- **🎣 Async URL Seeder**: Discover thousands of URLs in seconds:
+  ```python
+  seeder = AsyncUrlSeeder(SeedingConfig(
+      source="sitemap+cc",
+      pattern="*/blog/*",
+      query="python tutorials",
+      score_threshold=0.4
+  ))
+  
+  urls = await seeder.discover("https://example.com")
+  ```
+

+# 🚀 Crawl4AI v0.7.0: The Adaptive Intelligence Update
+
+*January 28, 2025 • 10 min read*
+
+---
+
+Today I'm releasing Crawl4AI v0.7.0—the Adaptive Intelligence Update. This release introduces fundamental improvements in how Crawl4AI handles modern web complexity through adaptive learning, intelligent content discovery, and advanced extraction capabilities.
+
+## 🎯 What's New at a Glance
+
+- **Adaptive Crawling**: Your crawler now learns and adapts to website patterns
+- **Virtual Scroll Support**: Complete content extraction from infinite scroll pages
+- **Link Preview with Intelligent Scoring**: Intelligent link analysis and prioritization
+- **Async URL Seeder**: Discover thousands of URLs in seconds with intelligent filtering
+- **Performance Optimizations**: Significant speed and memory improvements
+
+## 🧠 Adaptive Crawling: Intelligence Through Pattern Learning
+
+**The Problem:** Websites change. Class names shift. IDs disappear. Your carefully crafted selectors break at 3 AM, and you wake up to empty datasets and angry stakeholders.
+
+**My Solution:** I implemented an adaptive learning system that observes patterns, builds confidence scores, and adjusts extraction strategies on the fly. It's like having a junior developer who gets better at their job with every page they scrape.
+
+### Technical Deep-Dive
+
+The Adaptive Crawler maintains a persistent state for each domain, tracking:
+- Pattern success rates
+- Selector stability over time  
+- Content structure variations
+- Extraction confidence scores
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, AdaptiveCrawler, AdaptiveConfig
+import asyncio
+
+async def main():
+    
+    # Configure adaptive crawler
+    config = AdaptiveConfig(
+        strategy="statistical",  # or "embedding" for semantic understanding
+        max_pages=10,
+        confidence_threshold=0.7,  # Stop at 70% confidence
+        top_k_links=3,  # Follow top 3 links per page
+        min_gain_threshold=0.05  # Need 5% information gain to continue
+    )
+    
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=False) as crawler:
+        adaptive = AdaptiveCrawler(crawler, config)
+        
+        print("Starting adaptive crawl about Python decorators...")
+        result = await adaptive.digest(
+            start_url="https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html",
+            query="python decorators functions wrapping"
+        )
+        
+        print(f"\n✅ Crawling Complete!")
+        print(f"• Confidence Level: {adaptive.confidence:.0%}")
+        print(f"• Pages Crawled: {len(result.crawled_urls)}")
+        print(f"• Knowledge Base: {len(adaptive.state.knowledge_base)} documents")
+        
+        # Get most relevant content
+        relevant = adaptive.get_relevant_content(top_k=3)
+        print(f"\nMost Relevant Pages:")
+        for i, page in enumerate(relevant, 1):
+            print(f"{i}. {page['url']} (relevance: {page['score']:.2%})")
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+**Expected Real-World Impact:**
+- **News Aggregation**: Maintain 95%+ extraction accuracy even as news sites update their templates
+- **E-commerce Monitoring**: Track product changes across hundreds of stores without constant maintenance
+- **Research Data Collection**: Build robust academic datasets that survive website redesigns
+- **Reduced Maintenance**: Cut selector update time by 80% for frequently-changing sites
+
+## 🌊 Virtual Scroll: Complete Content Capture
+
+**The Problem:** Modern web apps only render what's visible. Scroll down, new content appears, old content vanishes into the void. Traditional crawlers capture that first viewport and miss 90% of the content. It's like reading only the first page of every book.
+
+**My Solution:** I built Virtual Scroll support that mimics human browsing behavior, capturing content as it loads and preserving it before the browser's garbage collector strikes.
+
+### Implementation Details
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import VirtualScrollConfig
+
+# For social media feeds (Twitter/X style)
+twitter_config = VirtualScrollConfig(
+    container_selector="[data-testid='primaryColumn']",
+    scroll_count=20,                    # Number of scrolls
+    scroll_by="container_height",       # Smart scrolling by container size
+    wait_after_scroll=1.0              # Let content load
+)
+
+# For e-commerce product grids (Instagram style)
+grid_config = VirtualScrollConfig(
+    container_selector="main .product-grid",
+    scroll_count=30,
+    scroll_by=800,                     # Fixed pixel scrolling
+    wait_after_scroll=1.5              # Images need time
+)
+
+# For news feeds with lazy loading
+news_config = VirtualScrollConfig(
+    container_selector=".article-feed",
+    scroll_count=50,
+    scroll_by="page_height",           # Viewport-based scrolling
+    wait_after_scroll=0.5              # Wait for content to load
+)
+
+# Use it in your crawl
+async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun(
+        "https://twitter.com/trending",
+        config=CrawlerRunConfig(
+            virtual_scroll_config=twitter_config,
+            # Combine with other features
+            extraction_strategy=JsonCssExtractionStrategy({
+                "tweets": {
+                    "selector": "[data-testid='tweet']",
+                    "fields": {
+                        "text": {"selector": "[data-testid='tweetText']", "type": "text"},
+                        "likes": {"selector": "[data-testid='like']", "type": "text"}
+                    }
+                }
+            })
+        )
+    )
+    
+    print(f"Captured {len(result.extracted_content['tweets'])} tweets")
+```
+
+**Key Capabilities:**
+- **DOM Recycling Awareness**: Detects and handles virtual DOM element recycling
+- **Smart Scroll Physics**: Three modes - container height, page height, or fixed pixels
+- **Content Preservation**: Captures content before it's destroyed
+- **Intelligent Stopping**: Stops when no new content appears
+- **Memory Efficient**: Streams content instead of holding everything in memory
+
+**Expected Real-World Impact:**
+- **Social Media Analysis**: Capture entire Twitter threads with hundreds of replies, not just top 10
+- **E-commerce Scraping**: Extract 500+ products from infinite scroll catalogs vs. 20-50 with traditional methods  
+- **News Aggregation**: Get all articles from modern news sites, not just above-the-fold content
+- **Research Applications**: Complete data extraction from academic databases using virtual pagination
+
+## 🔗 Link Preview: Intelligent Link Analysis and Scoring
+
+**The Problem:** You crawl a page and get 200 links. Which ones matter? Which lead to the content you actually want? Traditional crawlers force you to follow everything or build complex filters.
+
+**My Solution:** I implemented a three-layer scoring system that analyzes links like a human would—considering their position, context, and relevance to your goals.
+
+### Intelligent Link Analysis and Scoring
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import CrawlerRunConfig, CacheMode, AsyncWebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.adaptive_crawler import LinkPreviewConfig
+
+async def main():
+    # Configure intelligent link analysis
+    link_config = LinkPreviewConfig(
+        include_internal=True,
+        include_external=False,
+        max_links=10,
+        concurrency=5,
+        query="python tutorial",  # For contextual scoring
+        score_threshold=0.3,
+        verbose=True
+    )
+    # Use in your crawl
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            "https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/",
+            config=CrawlerRunConfig(
+                link_preview_config=link_config,
+                score_links=True,  # Enable intrinsic scoring
+                cache_mode=CacheMode.BYPASS
+            )
+        )
+
+        # Access scored and sorted links
+        if result.success and result.links:
+            for link in result.links.get("internal", []):
+                text = link.get('text', 'No text')[:40]
+                print(
+                    text,
+                    f"{link.get('intrinsic_score', 0):.1f}/10" if link.get('intrinsic_score') is not None else "0.0/10",
+                    f"{link.get('contextual_score', 0):.2f}/1" if link.get('contextual_score') is not None else "0.00/1",
+                    f"{link.get('total_score', 0):.3f}" if link.get('total_score') is not None else "0.000"
+                )
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+**Scoring Components:**
+
+1. **Intrinsic Score**: Based on link quality indicators
+   - Position on page (navigation, content, footer)
+   - Link attributes (rel, title, class names)
+   - Anchor text quality and length
+   - URL structure and depth
+
+2. **Contextual Score**: Relevance to your query using BM25 algorithm
+   - Keyword matching in link text and title
+   - Meta description analysis
+   - Content preview scoring
+
+3. **Total Score**: Combined score for final ranking
+
+**Expected Real-World Impact:**
+- **Research Efficiency**: Find relevant papers 10x faster by following only high-score links
+- **Competitive Analysis**: Automatically identify important pages on competitor sites
+- **Content Discovery**: Build topic-focused crawlers that stay on track
+- **SEO Audits**: Identify and prioritize high-value internal linking opportunities
+
+## 🎣 Async URL Seeder: Automated URL Discovery at Scale
+
+**The Problem:** You want to crawl an entire domain but only have the homepage. Or worse, you want specific content types across thousands of pages. Manual URL discovery? That's a job for machines, not humans.
+
+**My Solution:** I built Async URL Seeder—a turbocharged URL discovery engine that combines multiple sources with intelligent filtering and relevance scoring.
+
+### Technical Architecture
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import AsyncUrlSeeder, SeedingConfig
+
+async def main():
+    async with AsyncUrlSeeder() as seeder:
+        # Discover Python tutorial URLs
+        config = SeedingConfig(
+            source="sitemap",  # Use sitemap
+            pattern="*python*",  # URL pattern filter
+            extract_head=True,  # Get metadata
+            query="python tutorial",  # For relevance scoring
+            scoring_method="bm25",
+            score_threshold=0.2,
+            max_urls=10
+        )
+        
+        print("Discovering Python async tutorial URLs...")
+        urls = await seeder.urls("https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/", config)
+        
+        print(f"\n✅ Found {len(urls)} relevant URLs:")
+        for i, url_info in enumerate(urls[:5], 1):
+            print(f"\n{i}. {url_info['url']}")
+            if url_info.get('relevance_score'):
+                print(f"   Relevance: {url_info['relevance_score']:.3f}")
+            if url_info.get('head_data', {}).get('title'):
+                print(f"   Title: {url_info['head_data']['title'][:60]}...")
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+**Discovery Methods:**
+- **Sitemap Mining**: Parses robots.txt and all linked sitemaps
+- **Common Crawl**: Queries the Common Crawl index for historical URLs
+- **Intelligent Crawling**: Follows links with smart depth control
+- **Pattern Analysis**: Learns URL structures and generates variations
+
+**Expected Real-World Impact:**
+- **Migration Projects**: Discover 10,000+ URLs from legacy sites in under 60 seconds
+- **Market Research**: Map entire competitor ecosystems automatically
+- **Academic Research**: Build comprehensive datasets without manual URL collection
+- **SEO Audits**: Find every indexable page with content scoring
+- **Content Archival**: Ensure no content is left behind during site migrations
+
+## ⚡ Performance Optimizations
+
+This release includes significant performance improvements through optimized resource handling, better concurrency management, and reduced memory footprint.
+
+### What We Optimized
+
+```python
+# Optimized crawling with v0.7.0 improvements
+results = []
+for url in urls:
+    result = await crawler.arun(
+        url,
+        config=CrawlerRunConfig(
+            # Performance optimizations
+            wait_until="domcontentloaded",  # Faster than networkidle
+            cache_mode=CacheMode.ENABLED    # Enable caching
+        )
+    )
+    results.append(result)
+```
+
+**Performance Gains:**
+- **Startup Time**: 70% faster browser initialization
+- **Page Loading**: 40% reduction with smart resource blocking
+- **Extraction**: 3x faster with compiled CSS selectors
+- **Memory Usage**: 60% reduction with streaming processing
+- **Concurrent Crawls**: Handle 5x more parallel requests
+
+
+## 🔧 Important Changes
+
+### Breaking Changes
+- `link_extractor` renamed to `link_preview` (better reflects functionality)
+- Minimum Python version now 3.9
+- `CrawlerConfig` split into `CrawlerRunConfig` and `BrowserConfig`
+
+### Migration Guide
+```python
+# Old (v0.6.x)
+from crawl4ai import CrawlerConfig
+config = CrawlerConfig(timeout=30000)
+
+# New (v0.7.0)
+from crawl4ai import CrawlerRunConfig, BrowserConfig
+browser_config = BrowserConfig(timeout=30000)
+run_config = CrawlerRunConfig(cache_mode=CacheMode.BYPASS)
+```
+
+## 🤖 Coming Soon: Intelligent Web Automation

+## 7. Anti-Bot Features (Stealth Mode & Undetected Browser)
+
+Crawl4AI provides two powerful features to bypass bot detection:
+
+### 7.1 Stealth Mode
+
+Stealth mode uses playwright-stealth to modify browser fingerprints and behaviors. Enable it with a simple flag:
+
+```python
+browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+    enable_stealth=True,  # Activates stealth mode
+    headless=False
+)
+```
+
+**When to use**: Sites with basic bot detection (checking navigator.webdriver, plugins, etc.)
+
+### 7.2 Undetected Browser
+
+For advanced bot detection, use the undetected browser adapter:
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import UndetectedAdapter
+from crawl4ai.async_crawler_strategy import AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy
+
+# Create undetected adapter
+adapter = UndetectedAdapter()
+strategy = AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy(

+)
+
+async with AsyncWebCrawler(crawler_strategy=strategy, config=browser_config) as crawler:
+    # Your crawling code
+```
+
+**When to use**: Sites with sophisticated bot detection (Cloudflare, DataDome, etc.)
+
+### 7.3 Combining Both
+
+For maximum evasion, combine stealth mode with undetected browser:
+
+```python
+browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+    enable_stealth=True,  # Enable stealth
+    headless=False
+)
+
+adapter = UndetectedAdapter()  # Use undetected browser
+```
+
+### Choosing the Right Approach
+
+| Detection Level | Recommended Approach |
+|----------------|---------------------|
+| No protection | Regular browser |
+| Basic checks | Regular + Stealth mode |
+| Advanced protection | Undetected browser |
+| Maximum evasion | Undetected + Stealth mode |
+
+**Best Practice**: Start with regular browser + stealth mode. Only use undetected browser if needed, as it may be slightly slower.
+
+See [Undetected Browser Mode](undetected-browser.md) for detailed examples.

+## 6. URL-Specific Configurations
+
+When crawling diverse content types, you often need different configurations for different URLs. For example:
+- PDFs need specialized extraction
+- Blog pages benefit from content filtering
+- Dynamic sites need JavaScript execution
+- API endpoints need JSON parsing
+
+### 6.1 Basic URL Pattern Matching
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CrawlerRunConfig, MatchMode
+from crawl4ai.processors.pdf import PDFContentScrapingStrategy
+from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import JsonCssExtractionStrategy
+from crawl4ai.content_filter_strategy import PruningContentFilter
+from crawl4ai.markdown_generation_strategy import DefaultMarkdownGenerator
+
+async def crawl_mixed_content():
+    # Configure different strategies for different content
+    configs = [
+        # PDF files - specialized extraction
+        CrawlerRunConfig(
+            url_matcher="*.pdf",
+            scraping_strategy=PDFContentScrapingStrategy()
+        ),
+        
+        # Blog/article pages - content filtering
+        CrawlerRunConfig(
+            url_matcher=["*/blog/*", "*/article/*"],
+            markdown_generator=DefaultMarkdownGenerator(
+                content_filter=PruningContentFilter(threshold=0.48)
+            )
+        ),
+        
+        # Dynamic pages - JavaScript execution
+        CrawlerRunConfig(
+            url_matcher=lambda url: 'github.com' in url,
+            js_code="window.scrollTo(0, 500);"
+        ),
+        
+        # API endpoints - JSON extraction
+        CrawlerRunConfig(
+            url_matcher=lambda url: 'api' in url or url.endswith('.json'),
+            # Custome settings for JSON extraction
+        ),
+        
+        # Default config for everything else
+        CrawlerRunConfig()  # No url_matcher means it matches ALL URLs (fallback)
+    ]
+    
+    # Mixed URLs
+    urls = [
+        "https://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/tests/xhtml/testfiles/resources/pdf/dummy.pdf",
+        "https://blog.python.org/",
+        "https://github.com/microsoft/playwright",
+        "https://httpbin.org/json",
+        "https://example.com/"
+    ]
+    
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        results = await crawler.arun_many(
+            urls=urls,
+            config=configs  # Pass list of configs
+        )
+        
+        for result in results:
+            print(f"{result.url}: {len(result.markdown)} chars")
+```
+
+### 6.2 Advanced Pattern Matching
+
+**Important**: A `CrawlerRunConfig` without `url_matcher` (or with `url_matcher=None`) matches ALL URLs. This makes it perfect as a default/fallback configuration.
+
+The `url_matcher` parameter supports three types of patterns:
+
+#### Glob Patterns (Strings)
+```python
+# Simple patterns
+"*.pdf"                    # Any PDF file
+"*/api/*"                  # Any URL with /api/ in path
+"https://*.example.com/*"  # Subdomain matching
+"*://example.com/blog/*"   # Any protocol
+```
+
+#### Custom Functions
+```python
+# Complex logic with lambdas
+lambda url: url.startswith('https://') and 'secure' in url
+lambda url: len(url) > 50 and url.count('/') > 5
+lambda url: any(domain in url for domain in ['api.', 'data.', 'feed.'])
+```
+
+#### Mixed Lists with AND/OR Logic
+```python
+# Combine multiple conditions
+CrawlerRunConfig(
+    url_matcher=[
+        "https://*",                        # Must be HTTPS
+        lambda url: 'internal' in url,      # Must contain 'internal'
+        lambda url: not url.endswith('.pdf') # Must not be PDF
+    ],
+    match_mode=MatchMode.AND  # ALL conditions must match
+)
+```
+
+### 6.3 Practical Example: News Site Crawler
+
+```python
+async def crawl_news_site():
+    dispatcher = MemoryAdaptiveDispatcher(
+        memory_threshold_percent=70.0,
+        rate_limiter=RateLimiter(base_delay=(1.0, 2.0))
+    )
+    
+    configs = [
+        # Homepage - light extraction
+        CrawlerRunConfig(
+            url_matcher=lambda url: url.rstrip('/') == 'https://news.ycombinator.com',
+            css_selector="nav, .headline",
+            extraction_strategy=None
+        ),
+        
+        # Article pages - full extraction
+        CrawlerRunConfig(
+            url_matcher="*/article/*",
+            extraction_strategy=CosineStrategy(
+                semantic_filter="article content",
+                word_count_threshold=100
+            ),
+            screenshot=True,
+            excluded_tags=["nav", "aside", "footer"]
+        ),
+        
+        # Author pages - metadata focus
+        CrawlerRunConfig(
+            url_matcher="*/author/*",
+            extraction_strategy=JsonCssExtractionStrategy({
+                "name": "h1.author-name",
+                "bio": ".author-bio",
+                "articles": "article.post-card h2"
+            })
+        ),
+        
+        # Everything else
+        CrawlerRunConfig()
+    ]
+    
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        results = await crawler.arun_many(
+            urls=news_urls,
+            config=configs,
+            dispatcher=dispatcher
+        )
+```
+
+### 6.4 Best Practices
+
+1. **Order Matters**: Configs are evaluated in order - put specific patterns before general ones
+2. **Default Config Behavior**: 
+   - A config without `url_matcher` matches ALL URLs
+   - Always include a default config as the last item if you want to handle all URLs
+   - Without a default config, unmatched URLs will fail with "No matching configuration found"
+3. **Test Your Patterns**: Use the config's `is_match()` method to test patterns:
+   ```python
+   config = CrawlerRunConfig(url_matcher="*.pdf")
+   print(config.is_match("https://example.com/doc.pdf"))  # True
+   
+   default_config = CrawlerRunConfig()  # No url_matcher
+   print(default_config.is_match("https://any-url.com"))  # True - matches everything!
+   ```
+4. **Optimize for Performance**: 
+   - Disable JS for static content
+   - Skip screenshots for data APIs
+   - Use appropriate extraction strategies

+# PDF Processing Strategies
+
+Crawl4AI provides specialized strategies for handling and extracting content from PDF files. These strategies allow you to seamlessly integrate PDF processing into your crawling workflows, whether the PDFs are hosted online or stored locally.
+
+## `PDFCrawlerStrategy`
+
+### Overview
+`PDFCrawlerStrategy` is an implementation of `AsyncCrawlerStrategy` designed specifically for PDF documents. Instead of interpreting the input URL as an HTML webpage, this strategy treats it as a pointer to a PDF file. It doesn't perform deep crawling or HTML parsing itself but rather prepares the PDF source for a dedicated PDF scraping strategy. Its primary role is to identify the PDF source (web URL or local file) and pass it along the processing pipeline in a way that `AsyncWebCrawler` can handle.
+
+### When to Use
+Use `PDFCrawlerStrategy` when you need to:
+- Process PDF files using the `AsyncWebCrawler`.
+- Handle PDFs from both web URLs (e.g., `https://example.com/document.pdf`) and local file paths (e.g., `file:///path/to/your/document.pdf`).
+- Integrate PDF content extraction into a unified `CrawlResult` object, allowing consistent handling of PDF data alongside web page data.
+
+### Key Methods and Their Behavior
+-   **`__init__(self, logger: AsyncLogger = None)`**:
+    -   Initializes the strategy.
+    -   `logger`: An optional `AsyncLogger` instance (from `crawl4ai.async_logger`) for logging purposes.
+-   **`async crawl(self, url: str, **kwargs) -> AsyncCrawlResponse`**:
+    -   This method is called by the `AsyncWebCrawler` during the `arun` process.
+    -   It takes the `url` (which should point to a PDF) and creates a minimal `AsyncCrawlResponse`.
+    -   The `html` attribute of this response is typically empty or a placeholder, as the actual PDF content processing is deferred to the `PDFContentScrapingStrategy` (or a similar PDF-aware scraping strategy).
+    -   It sets `response_headers` to indicate "application/pdf" and `status_code` to 200.
+-   **`async close(self)`**:
+    -   A method for cleaning up any resources used by the strategy. For `PDFCrawlerStrategy`, this is usually minimal.
+-   **`async __aenter__(self)` / `async __aexit__(self, exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb)`**:
+    -   Enables asynchronous context management for the strategy, allowing it to be used with `async with`.
+
+### Example Usage
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CrawlerRunConfig
+from crawl4ai.processors.pdf import PDFCrawlerStrategy, PDFContentScrapingStrategy
+
+async def main():
+    # Initialize the PDF crawler strategy
+    pdf_crawler_strategy = PDFCrawlerStrategy()
+
+    # PDFCrawlerStrategy is typically used in conjunction with PDFContentScrapingStrategy
+    # The scraping strategy handles the actual PDF content extraction
+    pdf_scraping_strategy = PDFContentScrapingStrategy()
+    run_config = CrawlerRunConfig(scraping_strategy=pdf_scraping_strategy)
+
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(crawler_strategy=pdf_crawler_strategy) as crawler:
+        # Example with a remote PDF URL
+        pdf_url = "https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.06825.pdf" # A public PDF from arXiv
+        
+        print(f"Attempting to process PDF: {pdf_url}")
+        result = await crawler.arun(url=pdf_url, config=run_config)
+
+        if result.success:
+            print(f"Successfully processed PDF: {result.url}")
+            print(f"Metadata Title: {result.metadata.get('title', 'N/A')}")
+            # Further processing of result.markdown, result.media, etc.
+            # would be done here, based on what PDFContentScrapingStrategy extracts.
+            if result.markdown and hasattr(result.markdown, 'raw_markdown'):
+                print(f"Extracted text (first 200 chars): {result.markdown.raw_markdown[:200]}...")
+            else:
+                print("No markdown (text) content extracted.")
+        else:
+            print(f"Failed to process PDF: {result.error_message}")
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+### Pros and Cons
+**Pros:**
+-   Enables `AsyncWebCrawler` to handle PDF sources directly using familiar `arun` calls.
+-   Provides a consistent interface for specifying PDF sources (URLs or local paths).
+-   Abstracts the source handling, allowing a separate scraping strategy to focus on PDF content parsing.
+
+**Cons:**
+-   Does not perform any PDF data extraction itself; it strictly relies on a compatible scraping strategy (like `PDFContentScrapingStrategy`) to process the PDF.
+-   Has limited utility on its own; most of its value comes from being paired with a PDF-specific content scraping strategy.
+
+---
+
+## `PDFContentScrapingStrategy`
+
+### Overview
+`PDFContentScrapingStrategy` is an implementation of `ContentScrapingStrategy` designed to extract text, metadata, and optionally images from PDF documents. It is intended to be used in conjunction with a crawler strategy that can provide it with a PDF source, such as `PDFCrawlerStrategy`. This strategy uses the `NaivePDFProcessorStrategy` internally to perform the low-level PDF parsing.
+
+### When to Use
+Use `PDFContentScrapingStrategy` when your `AsyncWebCrawler` (often configured with `PDFCrawlerStrategy`) needs to:
+-   Extract textual content page by page from a PDF document.
+-   Retrieve standard metadata embedded within the PDF (e.g., title, author, subject, creation date, page count).
+-   Optionally, extract images contained within the PDF pages. These images can be saved to a local directory or made available for further processing.
+-   Produce a `ScrapingResult` that can be converted into a `CrawlResult`, making PDF content accessible in a manner similar to HTML web content (e.g., text in `result.markdown`, metadata in `result.metadata`).
+
+### Key Configuration Attributes
+When initializing `PDFContentScrapingStrategy`, you can configure its behavior using the following attributes:
+-   **`extract_images: bool = False`**: If `True`, the strategy will attempt to extract images from the PDF.
+-   **`save_images_locally: bool = False`**: If `True` (and `extract_images` is also `True`), extracted images will be saved to disk in the `image_save_dir`. If `False`, image data might be available in another form (e.g., base64, depending on the underlying processor) but not saved as separate files by this strategy.
+-   **`image_save_dir: str = None`**: Specifies the directory where extracted images should be saved if `save_images_locally` is `True`. If `None`, a default or temporary directory might be used.
+-   **`batch_size: int = 4`**: Defines how many PDF pages are processed in a single batch. This can be useful for managing memory when dealing with very large PDF documents.
+-   **`logger: AsyncLogger = None`**: An optional `AsyncLogger` instance for logging.
+
+### Key Methods and Their Behavior
+-   **`__init__(self, save_images_locally: bool = False, extract_images: bool = False, image_save_dir: str = None, batch_size: int = 4, logger: AsyncLogger = None)`**:
+    -   Initializes the strategy with configurations for image handling, batch processing, and logging. It sets up an internal `NaivePDFProcessorStrategy` instance which performs the actual PDF parsing.
+-   **`scrap(self, url: str, html: str, **params) -> ScrapingResult`**:
+    -   This is the primary synchronous method called by the crawler (via `ascrap`) to process the PDF.
+    -   `url`: The path or URL to the PDF file (provided by `PDFCrawlerStrategy` or similar).
+    -   `html`: Typically an empty string when used with `PDFCrawlerStrategy`, as the content is a PDF, not HTML.
+    -   It first ensures the PDF is accessible locally (downloads it to a temporary file if `url` is remote).
+    -   It then uses its internal PDF processor to extract text, metadata, and images (if configured).
+    -   The extracted information is compiled into a `ScrapingResult` object:
+        -   `cleaned_html`: Contains an HTML-like representation of the PDF, where each page's content is often wrapped in a `<div>` with page number information.
+        -   `media`: A dictionary where `media["images"]` will contain information about extracted images if `extract_images` was `True`.
+        -   `links`: A dictionary where `links["urls"]` can contain URLs found within the PDF content.
+        -   `metadata`: A dictionary holding PDF metadata (e.g., title, author, num_pages).
+-   **`async ascrap(self, url: str, html: str, **kwargs) -> ScrapingResult`**:
+    -   The asynchronous version of `scrap`. Under the hood, it typically runs the synchronous `scrap` method in a separate thread using `asyncio.to_thread` to avoid blocking the event loop.
+-   **`_get_pdf_path(self, url: str) -> str`**:
+    -   A private helper method to manage PDF file access. If the `url` is remote (http/https), it downloads the PDF to a temporary local file and returns its path. If `url` indicates a local file (`file://` or a direct path), it resolves and returns the local path.
+
+### Example Usage

+from crawl4ai.processors.pdf import PDFCrawlerStrategy, PDFContentScrapingStrategy
+import os # For creating image directory
+
+async def main():

+    # Enable image extraction and specify where to save them
+    pdf_scraping_cfg = PDFContentScrapingStrategy(
+        extract_images=True,
+        save_images_locally=True,
+        image_save_dir=image_output_dir,
+        batch_size=2 # Process 2 pages at a time for demonstration
+    )
+
+    # The PDFCrawlerStrategy is needed to tell AsyncWebCrawler how to "crawl" a PDF
+    pdf_crawler_cfg = PDFCrawlerStrategy()
+
+    # Configure the overall crawl run
+    run_cfg = CrawlerRunConfig(
+        scraping_strategy=pdf_scraping_cfg # Use our PDF scraping strategy
+    )
+
+    # Initialize the crawler with the PDF-specific crawler strategy
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(crawler_strategy=pdf_crawler_cfg) as crawler:
+        pdf_url = "https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.06825.pdf" # Example PDF
+

+                print(f"Extracted {len(result.media['images'])} image(s).")
+                for i, img_info in enumerate(result.media["images"][:2]): # Show info for first 2 images
+                    print(f"  Image {i+1}:")
+                    print(f"    Page: {img_info.get('page')}")
+                    print(f"    Format: {img_info.get('format', 'N/A')}")
+                    if img_info.get('path'):
+                        print(f"    Saved at: {img_info.get('path')}")
+            else:
+                print("\nNo images were extracted (or extract_images was False).")
+        else:
+            print(f"\n--- PDF Processing Failed ---")
+            print(f"Error: {result.error_message}")
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+### Pros and Cons
+
+**Pros:**
+-   Provides a comprehensive way to extract text, metadata, and (optionally) images from PDF documents.
+-   Handles both remote PDFs (via URL) and local PDF files.
+-   Configurable image extraction allows saving images to disk or accessing their data.
+-   Integrates smoothly with the `CrawlResult` object structure, making PDF-derived data accessible in a way consistent with web-scraped data.
+-   The `batch_size` parameter can help in managing memory consumption when processing large or numerous PDF pages.
+
+**Cons:**
+-   Extraction quality and performance can vary significantly depending on the PDF's complexity, encoding, and whether it's image-based (scanned) or text-based.
+-   Image extraction can be resource-intensive (both CPU and disk space if `save_images_locally` is true).
+-   Relies on `NaivePDFProcessorStrategy` internally, which might have limitations with very complex layouts, encrypted PDFs, or forms compared to more sophisticated PDF parsing libraries. Scanned PDFs will not yield text unless an OCR step is performed (which is not part of this strategy by default).
+-   Link extraction from PDFs can be basic and depends on how hyperlinks are embedded in the document.

+# Undetected Browser Mode
+
+## Overview
+
+Crawl4AI offers two powerful anti-bot features to help you access websites with bot detection:
+
+1. **Stealth Mode** - Uses playwright-stealth to modify browser fingerprints and behaviors
+2. **Undetected Browser Mode** - Advanced browser adapter with deep-level patches for sophisticated bot detection
+
+This guide covers both features and helps you choose the right approach for your needs.
+
+## Anti-Bot Features Comparison
+
+| Feature | Regular Browser | Stealth Mode | Undetected Browser |
+|---------|----------------|--------------|-------------------|
+| WebDriver Detection | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ |
+| Navigator Properties | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ |
+| Plugin Emulation | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ |
+| CDP Detection | ❌ | Partial | ✅ |
+| Deep Browser Patches | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ |
+| Performance Impact | None | Minimal | Moderate |
+| Setup Complexity | None | None | Minimal |
+
+## When to Use Each Approach
+
+### Use Regular Browser + Stealth Mode When:
+- Sites have basic bot detection (checking navigator.webdriver, plugins, etc.)
+- You need good performance with basic protection
+- Sites check for common automation indicators
+
+### Use Undetected Browser When:
+- Sites employ sophisticated bot detection services (Cloudflare, DataDome, etc.)
+- Stealth mode alone isn't sufficient
+- You're willing to trade some performance for better evasion
+
+### Best Practice: Progressive Enhancement
+1. **Start with**: Regular browser + Stealth mode
+2. **If blocked**: Switch to Undetected browser
+3. **If still blocked**: Combine Undetected browser + Stealth mode
+
+## Stealth Mode
+
+Stealth mode is the simpler anti-bot solution that works with both regular and undetected browsers:
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, BrowserConfig
+
+# Enable stealth mode with regular browser
+browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+    enable_stealth=True,  # Simple flag to enable
+    headless=False       # Better for avoiding detection
+)
+
+async with AsyncWebCrawler(config=browser_config) as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun("https://example.com")
+```
+
+### What Stealth Mode Does:
+- Removes `navigator.webdriver` flag
+- Modifies browser fingerprints
+- Emulates realistic plugin behavior
+- Adjusts navigator properties
+- Fixes common automation leaks
+
+## Undetected Browser Mode
+
+For sites with sophisticated bot detection that stealth mode can't bypass, use the undetected browser adapter:
+
+### Key Features
+
+- **Drop-in Replacement**: Uses the same API as regular browser mode
+- **Enhanced Stealth**: Built-in patches to evade common detection methods
+- **Browser Adapter Pattern**: Seamlessly switch between regular and undetected modes
+- **Automatic Installation**: `crawl4ai-setup` installs all necessary browser dependencies
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import (
+    AsyncWebCrawler, 
+    BrowserConfig, 
+    CrawlerRunConfig,
+    UndetectedAdapter
+)
+from crawl4ai.async_crawler_strategy import AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy
+
+async def main():
+    # Create the undetected adapter
+    undetected_adapter = UndetectedAdapter()
+    
+    # Create browser config
+    browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+        headless=False,  # Headless mode can be detected easier
+        verbose=True,
+    )
+    
+    # Create the crawler strategy with undetected adapter
+    crawler_strategy = AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy(
+        browser_config=browser_config,
+        browser_adapter=undetected_adapter
+    )
+    
+    # Create the crawler with our custom strategy
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+        crawler_strategy=crawler_strategy,
+        config=browser_config
+    ) as crawler:
+        # Your crawling code here
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://example.com",
+            config=CrawlerRunConfig()
+        )
+        print(result.markdown[:500])
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+## Combining Both Features
+
+For maximum evasion, combine stealth mode with undetected browser:
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, BrowserConfig, UndetectedAdapter
+from crawl4ai.async_crawler_strategy import AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy
+
+# Create browser config with stealth enabled
+browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+    enable_stealth=True,  # Enable stealth mode
+    headless=False
+)
+
+# Create undetected adapter
+adapter = UndetectedAdapter()
+
+# Create strategy with both features
+strategy = AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy(
+    browser_config=browser_config,
+    browser_adapter=adapter
+)
+
+async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+    crawler_strategy=strategy,
+    config=browser_config
+) as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun("https://protected-site.com")
+```
+
+## Examples
+
+### Example 1: Basic Stealth Mode
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, BrowserConfig, CrawlerRunConfig
+
+async def test_stealth_mode():
+    # Simple stealth mode configuration
+    browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+        enable_stealth=True,
+        headless=False
+    )
+    
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(config=browser_config) as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://bot.sannysoft.com",
+            config=CrawlerRunConfig(screenshot=True)
+        )
+        
+        if result.success:
+            print("✓ Successfully accessed bot detection test site")
+            # Save screenshot to verify detection results
+            if result.screenshot:
+                import base64
+                with open("stealth_test.png", "wb") as f:
+                    f.write(base64.b64decode(result.screenshot))
+                print("✓ Screenshot saved - check for green (passed) tests")
+
+asyncio.run(test_stealth_mode())
+```
+
+### Example 2: Undetected Browser Mode
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import (
+    AsyncWebCrawler,
+    BrowserConfig,
+    CrawlerRunConfig,
+    UndetectedAdapter
+)
+from crawl4ai.async_crawler_strategy import AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy
+
+
+async def main():
+    # Create browser config
+    browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+        headless=False,
+        verbose=True,
+    )
+    
+    # Create the undetected adapter
+    undetected_adapter = UndetectedAdapter()
+    
+    # Create the crawler strategy with the undetected adapter
+    crawler_strategy = AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy(
+        browser_config=browser_config,
+        browser_adapter=undetected_adapter
+    )
+    
+    # Create the crawler with our custom strategy
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+        crawler_strategy=crawler_strategy,
+        config=browser_config
+    ) as crawler:
+        # Configure the crawl
+        crawler_config = CrawlerRunConfig(
+            markdown_generator=DefaultMarkdownGenerator(
+                content_filter=PruningContentFilter()
+            ),
+            capture_console_messages=True,  # Test adapter console capture
+        )
+        
+        # Test on a site that typically detects bots
+        print("Testing undetected adapter...")
+        result: CrawlResult = await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://www.helloworld.org", 
+            config=crawler_config
+        )
+        
+        print(f"Status: {result.status_code}")
+        print(f"Success: {result.success}")
+        print(f"Console messages captured: {len(result.console_messages or [])}")
+        print(f"Markdown content (first 500 chars):\n{result.markdown.raw_markdown[:500]}")
+
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+## Browser Adapter Pattern
+
+The undetected browser support is implemented using an adapter pattern, allowing seamless switching between different browser implementations:
+
+```python
+# Regular browser adapter (default)
+from crawl4ai import PlaywrightAdapter
+regular_adapter = PlaywrightAdapter()
+
+# Undetected browser adapter
+from crawl4ai import UndetectedAdapter
+undetected_adapter = UndetectedAdapter()
+```
+
+The adapter handles:
+- JavaScript execution
+- Console message capture
+- Error handling
+- Browser-specific optimizations
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Avoid Headless Mode**: Detection is easier in headless mode
+   ```python
+   browser_config = BrowserConfig(headless=False)
+   ```
+
+2. **Use Reasonable Delays**: Don't rush through pages
+   ```python
+   crawler_config = CrawlerRunConfig(
+       wait_time=3.0,  # Wait 3 seconds after page load
+       delay_before_return_html=2.0  # Additional delay
+   )
+   ```
+
+3. **Rotate User Agents**: You can customize user agents
+   ```python
+   browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+       headers={"User-Agent": "your-user-agent"}
+   )
+   ```
+
+4. **Handle Failures Gracefully**: Some sites may still detect and block
+   ```python
+   if not result.success:
+       print(f"Crawl failed: {result.error_message}")
+   ```
+
+## Advanced Usage Tips
+
+### Progressive Detection Handling
+
+```python
+async def crawl_with_progressive_evasion(url):
+    # Step 1: Try regular browser with stealth
+    browser_config = BrowserConfig(
+        enable_stealth=True,
+        headless=False
+    )
+    
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(config=browser_config) as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(url)
+        if result.success and "Access Denied" not in result.html:
+            return result
+    
+    # Step 2: If blocked, try undetected browser
+    print("Regular + stealth blocked, trying undetected browser...")
+    
+    adapter = UndetectedAdapter()
+    strategy = AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy(
+        browser_config=browser_config,
+        browser_adapter=adapter
+    )
+    
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+        crawler_strategy=strategy,
+        config=browser_config
+    ) as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(url)
+        return result
+```
+
+## Installation
+
+The undetected browser dependencies are automatically installed when you run:
+
+```bash
+crawl4ai-setup
+```
+
+This command installs all necessary browser dependencies for both regular and undetected modes.
+
+## Limitations
+
+- **Performance**: Slightly slower than regular mode due to additional patches
+- **Headless Detection**: Some sites can still detect headless mode
+- **Resource Usage**: May use more resources than regular mode
+- **Not 100% Guaranteed**: Advanced anti-bot services are constantly evolving
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Browser Not Found
+
+Run the setup command:
+```bash
+crawl4ai-setup
+```
+
+### Detection Still Occurring
+
+Try combining with other features:
+```python
+crawler_config = CrawlerRunConfig(
+    simulate_user=True,  # Add user simulation
+    magic=True,  # Enable magic mode
+    wait_time=5.0,  # Longer waits
+)
+```
+
+### Performance Issues
+
+If experiencing slow performance:
+```python
+# Use selective undetected mode only for protected sites
+if is_protected_site(url):
+    adapter = UndetectedAdapter()
+else:
+    adapter = PlaywrightAdapter()  # Default adapter
+```
+
+## Future Plans
+
+**Note**: In future versions of Crawl4AI, we may enable stealth mode and undetected browser by default to provide better out-of-the-box success rates. For now, users should explicitly enable these features when needed.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+Crawl4AI provides flexible anti-bot solutions:
+
+1. **Start Simple**: Use regular browser + stealth mode for most sites
+2. **Escalate if Needed**: Switch to undetected browser for sophisticated protection
+3. **Combine for Maximum Effect**: Use both features together when facing the toughest challenges
+
+Remember:
+- Always respect robots.txt and website terms of service
+- Use appropriate delays to avoid overwhelming servers
+- Consider the performance trade-offs of each approach
+- Test progressively to find the minimum necessary evasion level

+### URL-Specific Configurations
+
+Instead of using one config for all URLs, provide a list of configs with `url_matcher` patterns:

+```python
+from crawl4ai import CrawlerRunConfig, MatchMode
+from crawl4ai.processors.pdf import PDFContentScrapingStrategy
+from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import JsonCssExtractionStrategy
+from crawl4ai.content_filter_strategy import PruningContentFilter

+    url_matcher=["*/blog/*", "*/article/*", "*python.org*"],
+    markdown_generator=DefaultMarkdownGenerator(
+        content_filter=PruningContentFilter(threshold=0.48)
+    )
+)
+
+# Dynamic pages - JavaScript execution
+github_config = CrawlerRunConfig(
+    url_matcher=lambda url: 'github.com' in url,
+    js_code="window.scrollTo(0, 500);"
+)
+
+# API endpoints - JSON extraction
+api_config = CrawlerRunConfig(
+    url_matcher=lambda url: 'api' in url or url.endswith('.json'),
+    # Custome settings for JSON extraction
+)
+
+# Default fallback config
+default_config = CrawlerRunConfig()  # No url_matcher means it never matches except as fallback
+
+# Pass the list of configs - first match wins!
+results = await crawler.arun_many(
+    urls=[
+        "https://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/tests/xhtml/testfiles/resources/pdf/dummy.pdf",  # → pdf_config
+        "https://blog.python.org/",  # → blog_config
+        "https://github.com/microsoft/playwright",  # → github_config
+        "https://httpbin.org/json",  # → api_config
+        "https://example.com/"  # → default_config
+    ],
+    config=[pdf_config, blog_config, github_config, api_config, default_config]
+)
+```
+
+**URL Matching Features**:
+- **String patterns**: `"*.pdf"`, `"*/blog/*"`, `"*python.org*"`
+- **Function matchers**: `lambda url: 'api' in url`
+- **Mixed patterns**: Combine strings and functions with `MatchMode.OR` or `MatchMode.AND`
+- **First match wins**: Configs are evaluated in order
+
 **Key Points**:
 - Each URL is processed by the same or separate sessions, depending on the dispatcher’s strategy.
 - `dispatch_result` in each `CrawlResult` (if using concurrency) can hold memory and timing info.  
 - If you need to handle authentication or session IDs, pass them in each individual task or within your run config.
+- **Important**: Always include a default config (without `url_matcher`) as the last item if you want to handle all URLs. Otherwise, unmatched URLs will fail.

+### [Crawl4AI v0.5.0: Deep Crawling, Scalability, and a New CLI!](releases/0.5.0.md)
+
+My dear friends and crawlers, there you go, this is the release of Crawl4AI v0.5.0! This release brings a wealth of new features, performance improvements, and a more streamlined developer experience.  Here's a breakdown of what's new:
+
+**Major New Features:**
+
+*   **Deep Crawling:** Explore entire websites with configurable strategies (BFS, DFS, Best-First).  Define custom filters and URL scoring for targeted crawls.
+*   **Memory-Adaptive Dispatcher:**  Handle large-scale crawls with ease!  Our new dispatcher dynamically adjusts concurrency based on available memory and includes built-in rate limiting.
+*   **Multiple Crawler Strategies:** Choose between the full-featured Playwright browser-based crawler or a new, *much* faster HTTP-only crawler for simpler tasks.
+*   **Docker Deployment:**  Deploy Crawl4AI as a scalable, self-contained service with built-in API endpoints and optional JWT authentication.
+*   **Command-Line Interface (CLI):**  Interact with Crawl4AI directly from your terminal.  Crawl, configure, and extract data with simple commands.
+*   **LLM Configuration (`LLMConfig`):** A new, unified way to configure LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, etc.) for extraction, filtering, and schema generation.  Simplifies API key management and switching between models.
+
+**Minor Updates & Improvements:**
+
+*   **LXML Scraping Mode:** Faster HTML parsing with `LXMLWebScrapingStrategy`.
+*   **Proxy Rotation:** Added `ProxyRotationStrategy` with a `RoundRobinProxyStrategy` implementation.
+*   **PDF Processing:** Extract text, images, and metadata from PDF files.
+*   **URL Redirection Tracking:**  Automatically follows and records redirects.
+*   **Robots.txt Compliance:**  Optionally respect website crawling rules.
+*   **LLM-Powered Schema Generation:**  Automatically create extraction schemas using an LLM.
+*   **`LLMContentFilter`:** Generate high-quality, focused markdown using an LLM.
+*   **Improved Error Handling & Stability:** Numerous bug fixes and performance enhancements.
+*   **Enhanced Documentation:**  Updated guides and examples.
+
+**Breaking Changes & Migration:**
+
+This release includes several breaking changes to improve the library's structure and consistency.  Here's what you need to know:
+
+*   **`arun_many()` Behavior:** Now uses the `MemoryAdaptiveDispatcher` by default.  The return type depends on the `stream` parameter in `CrawlerRunConfig`.  Adjust code that relied on unbounded concurrency.
+*   **`max_depth` Location:** Moved to `CrawlerRunConfig` and now controls *crawl depth*.
+*   **Deep Crawling Imports:**  Import `DeepCrawlStrategy` and related classes from `crawl4ai.deep_crawling`.
+*   **`BrowserContext` API:**  Updated; the old `get_context` method is deprecated.
+*   **Optional Model Fields:** Many data model fields are now optional.  Handle potential `None` values.
+*   **`ScrapingMode` Enum:** Replaced with strategy pattern (`WebScrapingStrategy`, `LXMLWebScrapingStrategy`).
+*   **`content_filter` Parameter:** Removed from `CrawlerRunConfig`. Use extraction strategies or markdown generators with filters.
+*   **Removed Functionality:** The synchronous `WebCrawler`, the old CLI, and docs management tools have been removed.
+*   **Docker:**  Significant changes to deployment.  See the [Docker documentation](../deploy/docker/README.md).
+*   **`ssl_certificate.json`:** This file has been removed.
+* **Config**: FastFilterChain has been replaced with FilterChain
+* **Deep-Crawl**: DeepCrawlStrategy.arun now returns Union[CrawlResultT, List[CrawlResultT], AsyncGenerator[CrawlResultT, None]]
+* **Proxy**: Removed synchronous WebCrawler support and related rate limiting configurations
+*   **LLM Parameters:** Use the new `LLMConfig` object instead of passing `provider`, `api_token`, `base_url`, and `api_base` directly to `LLMExtractionStrategy` and `LLMContentFilter`.
+
+**In short:** Update imports, adjust `arun_many()` usage, check for optional fields, and review the Docker deployment guide.
+

+# 🚀 Crawl4AI v0.7.0: The Adaptive Intelligence Update
+
+*January 28, 2025 • 10 min read*
+
+---
+
+Today I'm releasing Crawl4AI v0.7.0—the Adaptive Intelligence Update. This release introduces fundamental improvements in how Crawl4AI handles modern web complexity through adaptive learning, intelligent content discovery, and advanced extraction capabilities.
+
+## 🎯 What's New at a Glance
+
+- **Adaptive Crawling**: Your crawler now learns and adapts to website patterns
+- **Virtual Scroll Support**: Complete content extraction from infinite scroll pages
+- **Link Preview with Intelligent Scoring**: Intelligent link analysis and prioritization
+- **Async URL Seeder**: Discover thousands of URLs in seconds with intelligent filtering
+- **Performance Optimizations**: Significant speed and memory improvements
+
+## 🧠 Adaptive Crawling: Intelligence Through Pattern Learning
+
+**The Problem:** Websites change. Class names shift. IDs disappear. Your carefully crafted selectors break at 3 AM, and you wake up to empty datasets and angry stakeholders.
+
+**My Solution:** I implemented an adaptive learning system that observes patterns, builds confidence scores, and adjusts extraction strategies on the fly. It's like having a junior developer who gets better at their job with every page they scrape.
+
+### Technical Deep-Dive
+
+The Adaptive Crawler maintains a persistent state for each domain, tracking:
+- Pattern success rates
+- Selector stability over time  
+- Content structure variations
+- Extraction confidence scores
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, AdaptiveCrawler, AdaptiveConfig
+import asyncio
+
+async def main():
+    
+    # Configure adaptive crawler
+    config = AdaptiveConfig(
+        strategy="statistical",  # or "embedding" for semantic understanding
+        max_pages=10,
+        confidence_threshold=0.7,  # Stop at 70% confidence
+        top_k_links=3,  # Follow top 3 links per page
+        min_gain_threshold=0.05  # Need 5% information gain to continue
+    )
+    
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=False) as crawler:
+        adaptive = AdaptiveCrawler(crawler, config)
+        
+        print("Starting adaptive crawl about Python decorators...")
+        result = await adaptive.digest(
+            start_url="https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html",
+            query="python decorators functions wrapping"
+        )
+        
+        print(f"\n✅ Crawling Complete!")
+        print(f"• Confidence Level: {adaptive.confidence:.0%}")
+        print(f"• Pages Crawled: {len(result.crawled_urls)}")
+        print(f"• Knowledge Base: {len(adaptive.state.knowledge_base)} documents")
+        
+        # Get most relevant content
+        relevant = adaptive.get_relevant_content(top_k=3)
+        print(f"\nMost Relevant Pages:")
+        for i, page in enumerate(relevant, 1):
+            print(f"{i}. {page['url']} (relevance: {page['score']:.2%})")
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+**Expected Real-World Impact:**
+- **News Aggregation**: Maintain 95%+ extraction accuracy even as news sites update their templates
+- **E-commerce Monitoring**: Track product changes across hundreds of stores without constant maintenance
+- **Research Data Collection**: Build robust academic datasets that survive website redesigns
+- **Reduced Maintenance**: Cut selector update time by 80% for frequently-changing sites
+
+## 🌊 Virtual Scroll: Complete Content Capture
+
+**The Problem:** Modern web apps only render what's visible. Scroll down, new content appears, old content vanishes into the void. Traditional crawlers capture that first viewport and miss 90% of the content. It's like reading only the first page of every book.
+
+**My Solution:** I built Virtual Scroll support that mimics human browsing behavior, capturing content as it loads and preserving it before the browser's garbage collector strikes.
+
+### Implementation Details
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import VirtualScrollConfig
+
+# For social media feeds (Twitter/X style)

+
+**Key Capabilities:**
+- **DOM Recycling Awareness**: Detects and handles virtual DOM element recycling
+- **Smart Scroll Physics**: Three modes - container height, page height, or fixed pixels
+- **Content Preservation**: Captures content before it's destroyed
+- **Intelligent Stopping**: Stops when no new content appears
+- **Memory Efficient**: Streams content instead of holding everything in memory
+
+**Expected Real-World Impact:**
+- **Social Media Analysis**: Capture entire Twitter threads with hundreds of replies, not just top 10
+- **E-commerce Scraping**: Extract 500+ products from infinite scroll catalogs vs. 20-50 with traditional methods  
+- **News Aggregation**: Get all articles from modern news sites, not just above-the-fold content
+- **Research Applications**: Complete data extraction from academic databases using virtual pagination
+
+## 🔗 Link Preview: Intelligent Link Analysis and Scoring
+
+**The Problem:** You crawl a page and get 200 links. Which ones matter? Which lead to the content you actually want? Traditional crawlers force you to follow everything or build complex filters.
+
+**My Solution:** I implemented a three-layer scoring system that analyzes links like a human would—considering their position, context, and relevance to your goals.
+
+### Intelligent Link Analysis and Scoring
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import CrawlerRunConfig, CacheMode, AsyncWebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.adaptive_crawler import LinkPreviewConfig
+
+async def main():
+    # Configure intelligent link analysis
+    link_config = LinkPreviewConfig(
+        include_internal=True,
+        include_external=False,
+        max_links=10,
+        concurrency=5,
+        query="python tutorial",  # For contextual scoring
+        score_threshold=0.3,
+        verbose=True
+    )
+    # Use in your crawl
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            "https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/",
+            config=CrawlerRunConfig(
+                link_preview_config=link_config,
+                score_links=True,  # Enable intrinsic scoring
+                cache_mode=CacheMode.BYPASS
+            )
+        )
+
+        # Access scored and sorted links
+        if result.success and result.links:
+            for link in result.links.get("internal", []):
+                text = link.get('text', 'No text')[:40]
+                print(
+                    text,
+                    f"{link.get('intrinsic_score', 0):.1f}/10" if link.get('intrinsic_score') is not None else "0.0/10",
+                    f"{link.get('contextual_score', 0):.2f}/1" if link.get('contextual_score') is not None else "0.00/1",
+                    f"{link.get('total_score', 0):.3f}" if link.get('total_score') is not None else "0.000"
+                )
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+**Scoring Components:**
+
+1. **Intrinsic Score**: Based on link quality indicators
+   - Position on page (navigation, content, footer)
+   - Link attributes (rel, title, class names)
+   - Anchor text quality and length
+   - URL structure and depth
+
+2. **Contextual Score**: Relevance to your query using BM25 algorithm
+   - Keyword matching in link text and title
+   - Meta description analysis
+   - Content preview scoring
+
+3. **Total Score**: Combined score for final ranking
+
+**Expected Real-World Impact:**
+- **Research Efficiency**: Find relevant papers 10x faster by following only high-score links
+- **Competitive Analysis**: Automatically identify important pages on competitor sites
+- **Content Discovery**: Build topic-focused crawlers that stay on track
+- **SEO Audits**: Identify and prioritize high-value internal linking opportunities
+
+## 🎣 Async URL Seeder: Automated URL Discovery at Scale
+
+**The Problem:** You want to crawl an entire domain but only have the homepage. Or worse, you want specific content types across thousands of pages. Manual URL discovery? That's a job for machines, not humans.
+
+**My Solution:** I built Async URL Seeder—a turbocharged URL discovery engine that combines multiple sources with intelligent filtering and relevance scoring.
+
+### Technical Architecture
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import AsyncUrlSeeder, SeedingConfig
+
+async def main():
+    async with AsyncUrlSeeder() as seeder:
+        # Discover Python tutorial URLs
+        config = SeedingConfig(
+            source="sitemap",  # Use sitemap
+            pattern="*python*",  # URL pattern filter
+            extract_head=True,  # Get metadata
+            query="python tutorial",  # For relevance scoring
+            scoring_method="bm25",
+            score_threshold=0.2,
+            max_urls=10
+        )
+        
+        print("Discovering Python async tutorial URLs...")
+        urls = await seeder.urls("https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/", config)
+        
+        print(f"\n✅ Found {len(urls)} relevant URLs:")
+        for i, url_info in enumerate(urls[:5], 1):
+            print(f"\n{i}. {url_info['url']}")
+            if url_info.get('relevance_score'):
+                print(f"   Relevance: {url_info['relevance_score']:.3f}")
+            if url_info.get('head_data', {}).get('title'):
+                print(f"   Title: {url_info['head_data']['title'][:60]}...")
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+**Discovery Methods:**
+- **Sitemap Mining**: Parses robots.txt and all linked sitemaps
+- **Common Crawl**: Queries the Common Crawl index for historical URLs
+- **Intelligent Crawling**: Follows links with smart depth control
+- **Pattern Analysis**: Learns URL structures and generates variations
+
+**Expected Real-World Impact:**
+- **Migration Projects**: Discover 10,000+ URLs from legacy sites in under 60 seconds
+- **Market Research**: Map entire competitor ecosystems automatically
+- **Academic Research**: Build comprehensive datasets without manual URL collection
+- **SEO Audits**: Find every indexable page with content scoring
+- **Content Archival**: Ensure no content is left behind during site migrations
+
+## ⚡ Performance Optimizations
+
+This release includes significant performance improvements through optimized resource handling, better concurrency management, and reduced memory footprint.
+
+### What We Optimized
+
+```python
+# Optimized crawling with v0.7.0 improvements
+results = []
+for url in urls:
+    result = await crawler.arun(
+        url,
+        config=CrawlerRunConfig(
+            # Performance optimizations
+            wait_until="domcontentloaded",  # Faster than networkidle
+            cache_mode=CacheMode.ENABLED    # Enable caching
+        )
+    )
+    results.append(result)
+```
+
+**Performance Gains:**
+- **Startup Time**: 70% faster browser initialization
+- **Page Loading**: 40% reduction with smart resource blocking
+- **Extraction**: 3x faster with compiled CSS selectors
+- **Memory Usage**: 60% reduction with streaming processing
+- **Concurrent Crawls**: Handle 5x more parallel requests
+
+
+## 🔧 Important Changes
+
+### Breaking Changes
+- `link_extractor` renamed to `link_preview` (better reflects functionality)
+- Minimum Python version now 3.9
+- `CrawlerConfig` split into `CrawlerRunConfig` and `BrowserConfig`
+
+### Migration Guide
+```python
+# Old (v0.6.x)
+from crawl4ai import CrawlerConfig
+config = CrawlerConfig(timeout=30000)
+
+# New (v0.7.0)
+from crawl4ai import CrawlerRunConfig, BrowserConfig
+browser_config = BrowserConfig(timeout=30000)
+run_config = CrawlerRunConfig(cache_mode=CacheMode.BYPASS)
+```
+
+## 🤖 Coming Soon: Intelligent Web Automation
+
+I'm currently working on bringing advanced automation capabilities to Crawl4AI. This includes:
+
+- **Crawl Agents**: Autonomous crawlers that understand your goals and adapt their strategies
+- **Auto JS Generation**: Automatic JavaScript code generation for complex interactions
+- **Smart Form Handling**: Intelligent form detection and filling
+- **Context-Aware Actions**: Crawlers that understand page context and make decisions
+
+These features are under active development and will revolutionize how we approach web automation. Stay tuned!
+

+The LXML strategy provides excellent performance, particularly when processing large HTML documents, offering up to 10-20x faster processing compared to BeautifulSoup-based approaches.
 
-1. LXML strategy is currently experimental
-2. In some edge cases, the parsing results might differ slightly from BeautifulSoup
-3. If you encounter any inconsistencies between LXML and BeautifulSoup results, please [raise an issue](https://github.com/codeium/crawl4ai/issues) with a reproducible example
+Benefits of LXML strategy:
+- Fast processing of large HTML documents (especially >100KB)
+- Efficient memory usage
+- Good handling of well-formed HTML
+- Robust table detection and extraction
 
-Choose LXML strategy when:
-- Processing large HTML documents (recommended for >100KB)
-- Performance is critical
-- Working with well-formed HTML
+### Backward Compatibility
 
-Stick to BeautifulSoup strategy (default) when:
-- Maximum compatibility is needed
-- Working with malformed HTML
-- Exact parsing behavior is critical
+For users upgrading from earlier versions:
+- `WebScrapingStrategy` is now an alias for `LXMLWebScrapingStrategy`
+- Existing code using `WebScrapingStrategy` will continue to work without modification
+- No changes are required to your existing code

+### Table Extraction Tips
+
+- Not all HTML tables are extracted - only those detected as "data tables" vs. layout tables.
+- Tables with inconsistent cell counts, nested tables, or those used purely for layout may be skipped.
+- If you're missing tables, try adjusting the `table_score_threshold` to a lower value (default is 7).

+# WebScrapingStrategy Migration Guide
+
+## Overview
+
+Crawl4AI has simplified its content scraping architecture. The BeautifulSoup-based `WebScrapingStrategy` has been deprecated in favor of the faster LXML-based implementation. However, **no action is required** - your existing code will continue to work.
+
+## What Changed?
+
+1. **`WebScrapingStrategy` is now an alias** for `LXMLWebScrapingStrategy`
+2. **The BeautifulSoup implementation has been removed** (~1000 lines of redundant code)
+3. **`LXMLWebScrapingStrategy` inherits directly** from `ContentScrapingStrategy`
+4. **Performance remains optimal** with LXML as the sole implementation
+
+## Backward Compatibility
+
+**Your existing code continues to work without any changes:**
+
+```python
+# This still works perfectly
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CrawlerRunConfig, WebScrapingStrategy
+
+config = CrawlerRunConfig(
+    scraping_strategy=WebScrapingStrategy()  # Works as before
+)
+```
+
+## Migration Options
+
+You have three options:
+
+### Option 1: Do Nothing (Recommended)
+Your code will continue to work. `WebScrapingStrategy` is permanently aliased to `LXMLWebScrapingStrategy`.
+
+### Option 2: Update Imports (Optional)
+For clarity, you can update your imports:
+
+```python
+# Old (still works)
+from crawl4ai import WebScrapingStrategy
+strategy = WebScrapingStrategy()
+
+# New (more explicit)
+from crawl4ai import LXMLWebScrapingStrategy
+strategy = LXMLWebScrapingStrategy()
+```
+
+### Option 3: Use Default Configuration
+Since `LXMLWebScrapingStrategy` is the default, you can omit the strategy parameter:
+
+```python
+# Simplest approach - uses LXMLWebScrapingStrategy by default
+config = CrawlerRunConfig()
+```
+
+## Type Hints
+
+If you use type hints, both work:
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import WebScrapingStrategy, LXMLWebScrapingStrategy
+
+def process_with_strategy(strategy: WebScrapingStrategy) -> None:
+    # Works with both WebScrapingStrategy and LXMLWebScrapingStrategy
+    pass
+
+# Both are valid
+process_with_strategy(WebScrapingStrategy())
+process_with_strategy(LXMLWebScrapingStrategy())
+```
+
+## Subclassing
+
+If you've subclassed `WebScrapingStrategy`, it continues to work:
+
+```python
+class MyCustomStrategy(WebScrapingStrategy):
+    def __init__(self):
+        super().__init__()
+        # Your custom code
+```
+
+## Performance Benefits
+
+By consolidating to LXML:
+- **10-20x faster** HTML parsing for large documents
+- **Lower memory usage**
+- **Consistent behavior** across all use cases
+- **Simplified maintenance** and bug fixes
+
+## Summary
+
+This change simplifies Crawl4AI's internals while maintaining 100% backward compatibility. Your existing code continues to work, and you get better performance automatically.
