searxng-search

Programmatic web search lets you query search engines via API calls from code instead of manual browser interactions. SearXNG is a privacy-focused metasearch engine that exposes a REST API, allowing you to build HTTP requests in Python, authenticate with credentials, and parse JSON results to automate searches across multiple engines and categories.

Yes. This Skill queries a SearXNG instance via Python HTTP requests with customizable engines, categories, languages, and time filters. It uses credgoo for credential management and handles Basic Authentication, returning JSON responses you can parse and integrate into automation workflows.

Automate research by querying a SearXNG instance programmatically with filters for category, language, and time range. This eliminates manual searches and enables you to fetch, parse, and aggregate results directly into dashboards, notebooks, or downstream analysis—ideal for monitoring trends and compiling research at scale.

Credential requirements depend on your SearXNG instance configuration. This Skill integrates credgoo for secure credential management and supports Basic Authentication when needed, so you can safely store and pass authentication details without hardcoding them in your scripts.

Yes. SearXNG's API supports customizable filters including engine selection, result category, language, and time range. This Skill wraps those parameters into Python HTTP requests, letting you narrow searches for specific content types, languages, and recency without manual filtering.

SearXNG returns structured JSON responses containing titles, URLs, snippets, and metadata. You can parse these results in Python to extract data, feed results into dashboards, summarize content, extract images, integrate findings into reports, or trigger downstream workflows based on search outcomes.
