Bring the Keenable search provider in line with the established multi-file provider pattern so it surfaces everywhere the others do: - settings_api.py: register in the web-search provider options so it appears in the WebUI settings dropdown (credential: api_key, optional). - WebUI provider-brand: add keenable brand entry + brand test. - docs/configuration.md: provider table row + config example. - Harden _search_keenable: honor config.timeout and return explicit messages on HTTP status errors (429 / other), matching peer providers. - Add env-key and HTTP-error tests; add the websocket settings whitelist assertion.

nanobot WebUI Source
This directory contains the React/TypeScript source for the nanobot WebUI. If
you installed nanobot-ai from PyPI and only want to use the bundled browser UI,
read the user guide in docs/webui.md. You do not need
Node.js, Bun, Vite, or anything in this directory unless you are changing the
frontend.
For the project overview, install guide, and general docs map, see the root README.md and docs/README.md.

The source app is built with Vite + React 18 + TypeScript + Tailwind 3 + shadcn/ui. It talks to the gateway over the WebSocket multiplex protocol and reads session metadata from the embedded REST surface on the same port.

Develop the WebUI (Vite HMR)
1. Install nanobot from source
From the repository root:
python -m pip install -e .
Editable installs intentionally skip the WebUI bundle step — Vite HMR is faster than rebuilding
dist/on every change.
2. Enable the WebSocket channel
In ~/.nanobot/config.json, merge:
{ "channels": { "websocket": { "enabled": true } } }
3. Start the gateway
In one terminal:
nanobot gateway
4. Start the WebUI dev server
In another terminal:
cd webui
bun install # npm install also works
bun run dev
Then open http://127.0.0.1:5173.
By default the dev server proxies /api, /webui, /auth, and WebSocket traffic to http://127.0.0.1:8765.
If your gateway listens on a non-default port, point the dev server at it:
NANOBOT_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:9000 bun run dev
Build for packaged runtime
You usually do not need to run this by hand: python -m build invokes the WebUI build automatically when packaging the wheel.
If you want to preview the production bundle locally without rebuilding the wheel:
cd webui
bun run build # writes to ../nanobot/web/dist
The gateway picks up the new bundle on the next restart.
Test
cd webui
bun run test
