In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to look up the latest information, API references, documentation, current events, and other up-to-date web content.
Why use it?
It helps retrieve current information when built-in knowledge may be outdated, especially for documentation, recent events, or changing web data.

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: agent in frontmatter; mentions Claude Code; mentions Gemini CLI.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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 C, and why

gemini-search scanned grade C with 2 findings 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 8d ago.

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.

Web Search Skill (Antigravity CLI)

Overview

This skill enables web search using Google Antigravity CLI (agy), the successor to the Gemini CLI. Use it when you need:

  • Latest information not in training data
  • Current documentation or API references
  • Recent news or events
  • Up-to-date web data

Note: Google transitioned Gemini CLI to Antigravity CLI. Gemini CLI stopped serving requests on 2026-06-18 for AI Pro/Ultra and free-tier users, so this skill now drives the agy binary.

Prerequisites

Antigravity CLI (agy) must be installed and signed in. Run the check script first:

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/check-gemini.sh

If agy is missing, install it and sign in:

curl -fsSL https://antigravity.google/cli/install.sh | bash
agy   # one-time browser sign-in

Usage

Basic Web Search

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/gemini-search.sh "<search query>"

IMPORTANT: agy needs write access to its config/cache under ~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/, which Claude Code's sandbox blocks. When running the script via the Bash tool, set dangerouslyDisableSandbox: true; otherwise agy exits non-zero with shell command errors even though it is installed and signed in.

Examples

# Search for latest Claude Code features
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/gemini-search.sh "Claude Code latest features 2026"

# Look up current API documentation
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/gemini-search.sh "OpenAI API rate limits 2026"

# Research recent news
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/gemini-search.sh "AI regulation updates January 2026"

Workflow

  1. Check Prerequisites

    • Verify Antigravity CLI (agy) installation
    • Ensure sign-in is complete
  2. Execute Search

    • Run gemini-search.sh with query
    • Wait for results (120s timeout)
  3. Process Results

    • Summarize key findings
    • Note relevant sources
    • Highlight latest information

Error Handling

Error Solution
agy not found Install: curl -fsSL https://antigravity.google/cli/install.sh | bash
Not signed in Run agy once to complete browser sign-in
Legacy Gemini CLI only Migrate to agy (see install above); optionally agy plugin import gemini
Timeout Retry with a more specific query

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.

gemini-search is a skill published in the GitHub repository signalcompose/claude-tools (4 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 766 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
