💰 Free & Secure Brave API Alternative

local-search-pro provides a 100% FREE and secure replacement for OpenClaw's built-in web_search.

Python Dependency

The runtime scripts require the Python package requests.

Install if missing:

pip install requests

✅ No Brave API key
✅ No $5/month cost
✅ Localhost-only deployment
✅ Limiter enabled
✅ Safe search enabled


Dev Mode

Advanced users can run:

python scripts/install.py --dev

⚠ Dev mode disables:

  • safe_search (set to 0)
  • limiter (disabled)

This weakens safety protections and is intended for local development only.


Persistence Notice

⚠ The install script runs Docker with --restart unless-stopped and -d, which creates a persistent background container (searxng-local).

  • The container will continue running after OpenClaw exits.
  • It will automatically restart on system reboot.
  • This is intentional for local service stability.

To remove the service:

docker rm -f searxng-local

Users should be aware this is a system-level persistent service.


Security Model

  • Docker container binds to 127.0.0.1 only
  • Request limiter enabled by default
  • Safe search enabled by default
  • No public exposure
  • No global config modifications

This skill does not modify global OpenClaw configuration.
