--- name: web-search description: This skill should be used when users need to search the web for information, find current content, look up news articles, search for images, or find videos. It uses DuckDuckGo's search API to return results in clean, formatted output (text, markdown, or JSON). Use for research, fact-checking, finding recent information, or gathering web resources. --- # Web Search ## Overview Search the web using DuckDuckGo's API to find information across web pages, news articles, images, and videos. Returns results in multiple formats (text, markdown, JSON) with filtering options for time range, region, and safe search. ## When to Use This Skill Use this skill when users request: - Web searches for information or resources - Finding current or recent information online - Looking up news articles about specific topics - Searching for images by description or topic - Finding videos on specific subjects - Research requiring current web data - Fact-checking or verification using web sources - Gathering URLs and resources on a topic ## Prerequisites Install the required dependency: ```bash pip install duckduckgo-search ``` This library provides a simple Python interface to DuckDuckGo's search API without requiring API keys or authentication. ## Core Capabilities ### 1. Basic Web Search Search for web pages and information: ```bash python scripts/search.py "<query>" ``` **Example:** ```bash python scripts/search.py "python asyncio tutorial" ``` Returns the top 10 web results with titles, URLs, and descriptions in a clean text format. ### 2. Limiting Results Control the number of results returned: ```bash python scripts/search.py "<query>" --max-results <N> ``` **Example:** ```bash python scripts/search.py "machine learning frameworks" --max-results 20 ``` Useful for: - Getting more comprehensive results (increase limit) - Quick lookups with fewer results (decrease limit) - Balancing detail vs. processing time ### 3. Time Range Filtering Filter results by recency: ```bash python scripts/search.py "<query>" --time-range <d|w|m|y> ``` **Time range options:** - `d` - Past day - `w` - Past week - `m` - Past month - `y` - Past year **Example:** ```bash python scripts/search.py "artificial intelligence news" --time-range w ``` Great for: - Finding recent news or updates - Filtering out outdated content - Tracking recent developments ### 4. News Search Search specifically for news articles: ```bash python scripts/search.py "<query>" --type news ``` **Example:** ```bash python scripts/search.py "climate change" --type news --time-range w --max-results 15 ``` News results include: - Article title - Source publication - Publication date - URL - Article summary/description ### 5. Image Search Search for images: ```bash python scripts/search.py "<query>" --type images ``` **Example:** ```bash python scripts/search.py "sunset over mountains" --type images --max-results 20 ``` **Image filtering options:** Size f
