DESKTOP-RTLN3BA\$punk 701f888b9e feat(proxy): refactor proxy configuration and add DataImpulse provider 
- Updated proxy configuration in `.env.example` files to use `PROXY_URL` and `PROXY_URLS` instead of `CUSTOM_PROXY_URL` and `CUSTOM_PROXY_URLS`.
- Introduced `DataImpulseProvider` for proxy management, replacing the deprecated `AnonymousProxiesProvider`.
- Enhanced documentation to reflect changes in proxy setup and usage.
- Adjusted related code in the proxy registry and configuration files to support the new provider structure.

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. 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 chat scrape_webpage tools 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.
