Restart Search Engine
Restart the local SearXNG Docker container when web search stops responding.
tool name: restart_search_engine
Runs docker compose down then up for the local SearXNG container used by Search Engine.
Use it when search_engine fails with a connection error or HTTP 403 — both usually mean the container is down or running a stale config.
Requires Docker on the host and takes up to ~2 minutes. Requires confirmation: the model must tell you search failed and get an explicit follow-up "yes" before it stops and recreates the container.
