Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Queries a self-hosted SearXNG instance aggregating multiple search engines.
Always set category based on the nature of the query. CategoryWhen to useEnginesgeneralDefault. Facts, how-tos, products, people, broad web.Brave, Bing, DDG, Startpage, Qwant, Wikipedia…newsRecent events, breaking news, anything time-sensitive.Bing News, DDG NewsacademicResearch papers, studies, medical literature, preprints.arXiv, Google Scholar, PubMedsocialOpinions, community recommendations, "what do people think about X".Reddit
Write queries as a search engine expects — keywords, not full sentences: # Bad "what is the fastest async runtime for rust" # Good "rust async runtime benchmarks 2025" news: include a time anchor — "OpenAI o3 release 2025" not just "OpenAI o3" academic: use field terminology — "transformer attention efficiency survey" social: phrase as community search — "reddit best mechanical keyboard 2025"
SearXNG supports lightweight query modifiers you can embed directly into the query string: SyntaxMeaningExamples!<engine> / !<category>Select engine(s) and/or a category. Chainable and inclusive; abbreviations are accepted.!wp paris, !wikipedia paris, !map paris, !map !ddg !wp paris:<lang>Language filter:fr !wp Wau Holland
count=5 (default) — sufficient for most tasks count=10 — comparing many options, checking consensus count=3 — quick fact checks
Fire multiple focused searches rather than one broad one: # Bad: one vague search internet_search("best way to deploy Node.js") # Good: three targeted searches internet_search("Node.js Docker deployment best practices 2025") internet_search("Node.js PM2 vs Docker production", category="social") internet_search("Node.js zero-downtime deployment strategies") Combine general + social for factual + sentiment coverage: internet_search("Bun runtime performance vs Node.js benchmarks") internet_search("Bun runtime production experience", category="social")
Things you already know with high confidence Stable API docs or well-known syntax — use training knowledge Repeating a search that already answered the question
