Subject: [PATCH] fix: make /search mode-aware
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Notes:\n- Medium: /search now depends on getSiteMode() during beforeLoad. On server-side routing, if VITE_SITE_MODE isn’t set and VITE_SOULHUB_SITE_URL is set (as in .env.local), getSiteMode() will resolve to souls and redirect /search to / even on the ClawdHub deployment. This is a regression risk vs the old always-/skills redirect. Confirm deployment envs guarantee correct mode. src/routes/search.tsx:9-31
