Conclusion status

No confirmed conclusion exists for this pair. The evidence below is presented for transparency; a relationship conclusion requires a human review that has not happened, or a previous decision no longer matches the current evidence.

No directional succession or fork claim was found; the current evidence does not establish the researched relationship.

Seed context: 2026-09-19 researched candidate; NOT APPROVED. Old README declares no longer maintained and identifies SearXNG as fork by a former maintainer. New repository has recent activity. Primary sources: https://github.com/searxng/searxng and https://github.com/searx/searx. Raw API evidence: succession-research-20260919.json. Await normal collector ingestion; API quota exhausted.

Observed repository facts
