What This Skill Does
Provides web search via the Presearch decentralized network. Queries are handled by distributed nodes without user tracking or profiling. Supports filtering by language, time range, and safe search settings.
Unlike Google or Bing APIs, Presearch routes queries through a decentralized node network, so no single provider logs or profiles the searches.
When to use it
- Searching the web from an AI agent without logging user queries
- Fetching recent news results filtered by time range
- Running uncensored searches in regions with restricted content
- Paginating through search results for research aggregation
- Integrating privacy-preserving search into an automated pipeline
