README.md.Expected Behavior
It's not a major thing, but when I switch to Brave web search and turn on the toggle "Bypass Web Loader", I would expect it to bypass the web loader (whatever that does, exactly).
Actual Behavior
Instead, the GUI displays "An error occurred while searching the web", and the console shows an error "1 validation error for Document" "Input should be a valid string".
Steps to Reproduce
Switch to brave web search in Admin Console.
Select "Bypass Web Loader"
Select "Web search" in GUI

Does brave provide snippets for the search results? Bypass web loader is only supported by a select few.
