searxng-search

You can search the web without an API key by using a meta-search engine like SearXNG, which aggregates results from over 70 search engines. This Skill routes your query through SearXNG to fetch results without requiring authentication.

A privacy-respecting meta-search aggregates results from multiple search engines without tracking your activity. SearXNG operates this way, querying over 70 engines while maintaining your privacy and returning combined results.

Yes, you can use a self-hosted SearXNG instance for web searches. This Skill supports both self-hosted instances and public ones, allowing you to choose your preferred environment for performing privacy-focused meta-searches.

When SearXNG is not available, the search automatically falls back to other search options. This fallback mechanism ensures you still retrieve web results even if your primary SearXNG instance is down or unresponsive.

To perform a meta-search using SearXNG, type 'search web' followed by your query. This triggers the Skill to fetch aggregated results across multiple search engines while maintaining your privacy without needing an API key.
