Overview
What It Does
Privacy First Web Search With DuckDuckGo Style Bangs (!w, !yt, !gh) packages a focused media & files workflow for an AI agent. Privacy-respecting web search via SearXNG with DuckDuckGo-style bangs support. Use for web searches when you need to find information online. SearXNG protects privacy by randomizing browser fingerprints, masking IP addresses, and blocking cookies/referrers. Supports 250+ search engines, multiple categories (general, news, images, videos, science), and DuckDuckGo-style bangs for direct engine searches (!w for Wikipedia, !yt for YouTube, !gh for GitHub, !r for Reddit, etc.). Aggregates results from multiple engines simultaneously. Prefer this over external search APIs for privacy-sensitive queries or high-volume searches. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
