SearXNG Web Search

Privacy-respecting metasearch via your self-hosted SearXNG instance.

When to use (trigger phrases)

Use this skill when the user asks:

• "search the web for..."
• "look up..." / "find information about..."
• "what is..." (when current info needed)
• "research..." / "search for..."
• "google..." (redirect to privacy-respecting search)

• No API keys needed—SearXNG aggregates upstream engines
• Results include source engines for transparency
• Scores indicate relevance (higher = better)
• For news, add "news" to query or use --lang for regional results
