Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

keenable-web-search scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/search.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 98 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

A web search and research skill. It searches the live web for current, citable information and returns ranked results with titles, URLs, and snippets. A small bundled Python script (standard library only) calls Keenable's keyless public endpoint, so there is no API key and nothing to install.

What this skill is for

Use it whenever the answer depends on information from the web rather than the model's training data:

  • Research — find papers, primary sources, and background on a topic, then read the most relevant pages before drawing conclusions.
  • News and current events — look up recent announcements, releases, and developments, with optional date bounds for time-sensitive topics.
  • Fact-checking and citation — confirm a claim against a primary source and cite the URL.
  • Company, product, and market research — gather references about an organization, product, technology, or trend.
  • Documentation lookup — find official docs, changelogs, and references for a library, standard, or API.

Usage

Run the bundled script with a natural-language query (describe the ideal page, not bare keywords):

python3 scripts/search.py "official changelog for the EU AI Act 2025 amendments"

Snippets are starting points. Open the most relevant URL (e.g. with the agent's web-fetch tool) before relying on a claim, and cite the source.

Options

Flag What it does
--site <domain> Restrict the search to one site, e.g. --site arxiv.org.
--published-after / --published-before YYYY-MM-DD bounds on publish date, for time-sensitive research.
--acquired-after / --acquired-before YYYY-MM-DD bounds on when the page was indexed.
--json Raw JSON instead of formatted text.

Examples

# News and current events
python3 scripts/search.py "latest OpenAI model announcements"

# Research papers from one site, recent only
python3 scripts/search.py "diffusion models for inverse problems" \
  --site arxiv.org --published-after 2025-01-01

# Documentation lookup
python3 scripts/search.py "Python asyncio TaskGroup reference"

# Machine-readable output for downstream processing
python3 scripts/search.py "EU AI Act timeline" --json

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
