- Add DISABLE_SSL_VERIFY = False to base_config.py (default: verification on)
- Add tools/httpx_util.py with make_async_client() factory that reads the config
- Replace all httpx.AsyncClient() call sites across all platforms (bilibili,
weibo, zhihu, xhs, douyin, kuaishou) and crawler_util with make_async_client()
- Extends SSL fix to previously missed platforms: xhs, douyin, kuaishou
Users running behind an intercepting proxy can set DISABLE_SSL_VERIFY = True
in config/base_config.py. All other users retain certificate verification.
