chore: remove proprietary README file
- Deleted the `README.md` from the `app/proprietary` directory, which outlined licensing and usage rules for proprietary components. This removal reflects a shift in project documentation strategy and simplifies the codebase.

# `app.proprietary` — non-Apache-2 license boundary
|
||||
|
||||
Everything in this directory tree is licensed **separately** from the rest of
|
||||
SurfSense (which is Apache-2.0), under the **Business Source License 1.1** —
|
||||
see [`LICENSE`](./LICENSE). In short: source-available; production use is
|
||||
permitted (including self-hosting the whole app) *except* offering it to third
|
||||
parties as a commercial product or hosted/managed service; each released
|
||||
version converts to Apache-2.0 four years after its release.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why this exists
|
||||
|
||||
This package holds the product moat:
|
||||
|
||||
- the in-house **undetectable web crawler** (Scrapling tiers + stealth/captcha
|
||||
hardening), and
|
||||
- (future) **platform-specific actors** that scrape/extract structured data from
|
||||
individual platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
Keeping it in one clearly-named directory makes the license boundary
|
||||
unambiguous: a single rule — *everything under `app/proprietary/**` is not
|
||||
Apache-2.0* — instead of per-file headers scattered across the tree.
|
||||
|
||||
## Layout
|
||||
|
||||
- `web_crawler/` — the Scrapling-based crawler engine. Public API:
|
||||
`WebCrawlerConnector`, `CrawlOutcome`, `CrawlOutcomeStatus`
|
||||
(`from app.proprietary.web_crawler import ...`).
|
||||
- `platforms/` — (future, Phase 8) platform-specific actors; scaffolded/empty.
|
||||
|
||||
## Rules
|
||||
|
||||
- **Do not** add Apache-2.0-intended code here.
|
||||
- Apache-2.0 code elsewhere **may import from** this package (the indexer and the
|
||||
`web.crawl` capability do); that does not move them under this license.
|
||||
- Depend only on the public API exported from each subpackage's `__init__`, not
|
||||
on internal modules, so the boundary stays clean and swappable.
|
||||
- **Boundary test:** put code here only if it is used *exclusively* by the moat.
|
||||
Generic infrastructure that Apache-2 features also depend on stays Apache-2
|
||||
even when the crawler uses it too. Example: `app/utils/proxy/` (provider
|
||||
abstraction, registry, `CustomProxyProvider` + rotation — a thin wrapper over
|
||||
Scrapling's public `ProxyRotator`) is shared with the YouTube/transcript and
|
||||
chat features, so it stays Apache-2; only the crawl-ladder-coupled
|
||||
rotation-retry orchestration (`web_crawler/connector.py::_run_tier_with_proxy_retry`)
|
||||
lives here.
