+"""
+The **URL Rewrite plugin** allows modification of search result URLs based on regular expression patterns.
+URLs can be rewritten to different destinations, blocked entirely, or have their priority adjusted in the
+results list.
+
+The plugin can be enabled by adding it to the `enabled_plugins` **list** in the `settings.yml`:
+
+.. code:: yaml
+
+    enabled_plugins:
+        - 'URL Rewrite'
+        ...
+
+Configuration options in `settings.yml`:
+
+- ``url_rewrite.rules``: A **list** of rules that define how URLs should be handled. Each rule
+  can contain the following keys:
+
+  - ``pattern``: Regular expression pattern to match against result URLs
+  - ``repl``: Replacement string for matched URLs, or `false` to remove matching results
+  - ``priority``: Optional priority adjustment ('high' or 'low') for matching results
+
+Example configuration:
+
+.. code:: yaml
+
+    url_rewrite:
+        rules:
+            - pattern: '^(?P<url>https://(.*\.)?cnn\.com/.*)$'
+              repl: 'https://reader.example.com/?url=\g<url>'
+            - pattern: '^https?://(?:www\.)?facebook\.com/.*'
+              repl: false
+            - pattern: '^(?P<url>https://news\.example\.com/.*)$'
+              repl: 'https://proxy.example.com/?url=\g<url>'
+              priority: high
+
+In this example:
+- CNN articles are redirected through a reader service
+- Facebook URLs are removed from results
+- News site URLs are proxied and given higher priority
+
+The ``pattern`` field supports Python regular expressions with named capture groups.
+The ``repl`` field can reference captured groups using ``\g<name>`` syntax.
+Setting ``repl`` to ``false`` will remove matching results entirely.
+The optional ``priority`` field can be set to 'high' or 'low' to adjust result ranking.
