Jeffrey Sperling ce8e289692 Address review feedback: fix tiebreaker map, error handling, regex patterns
- Add BlueskyItem/TruthSocialItem to _ITEM_SOURCE_MAP (wrong tiebreaker)
- Add bluesky/truthsocial to _DEFAULT_TIEBREAKER
- Log HTTPError in select_openai_model instead of silent fallback
- Remove overly broad 'or.*for' from comparison regex (false positives)
- Remove bare 'will' from prediction regex (misclassifies feature queries)
- Narrow brave_search except clauses to ValueError/TypeError
- Fix stale comments: pricing table, docstrings, penalty descriptions

"""Brave Search web search for last30days skill.
Uses the Brave Search API as a web search backend.
Requires a paid Brave Search subscription.
Two modes:
- Standard: /res/v1/web/search — returns URLs + snippets (default)
- LLM Context: /res/v1/llm/context — returns pre-extracted text chunks
optimized for LLM consumption. Enable with BRAVE_LLM_CONTEXT=1 env var.
API docs: https://api-dashboard.search.brave.com/app/documentation/web-search/get-started
