What This Skill Does

A CLI tool for web search built for AI agents. Runs searches from the terminal and returns pre-extracted, token-budgeted content ready for LLM consumption. Supports web search, news, images, videos, local places, AI-synthesized answers, and custom ranking via Goggles. It combines search, scraping, and content extraction into a single CLI call that returns token-budgeted JSON, so agents skip the usual multi-step pipeline of searching, fetching pages, and parsing HTML.
