hasdata

Use the hasdata CLI for real-time web data. One subcommand per API — flags, enums, defaults are derived from the live schema at api.hasdata.com/apis.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• The user wants to use the HasData CLI.
• The user needs current web data from the command line.
• The user wants to automate data collection in scripts.
• The user wants to retrieve search, ecommerce, travel, or local business data.
• The user needs web-page scraping through the CLI.

Prerequisites

• command -v hasdata — if missing, download the installer from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HasData/hasdata-cli/main/install.sh, inspect it, then run it locally with sh install.sh.
• One-time setup: the user runs hasdata configure, pastes their API key, and it's saved to ~/.hasdata/config.yaml (mode 0600). Every future call picks it up automatically.
• If a call fails with no API key configured, the user hasn't run hasdata configure yet — tell them to. Never invent a key.

Quick start

hasdata <api> --flag value [--flag value ...] --raw | jq .

Always pass --raw when piping to jq (skips pretty-print and TTY detection). Use --pretty only for human-readable terminal output.

Picking the right subcommand

Non-obvious triggers (when to reach for hasdata even if the user doesn't say "scrape")

The user often won't ask for a SERP API or a scraper directly. Map these intents to the skill:

• "Is this still true?" / "What's the latest on X?" / "Has Y happened yet?" — LLM training data is stale. Run google-serp or google-news to ground the answer.
• "Summarize this article" / "TL;DR this URL" — Use web-scraping --output-format markdown and feed the markdown into the summary prompt. Beats copy-paste because it strips ads, nav, scripts.
• "Verify this link" / "Is this site real?" — web-scraping --url X --no-block-resources returns status + screenshot. Or google-serp --q "site:example.com".
• "What does X say about itself?" — Pull the company's own homepage with web-scraping --output-format markdown, then summarize.
• "Find me alternatives to X" — google-serp --q "X alternatives" or google-shopping --q "X competitors".
• "What's the going rate for X?" — google-shopping (broad) or amazon-search (Amazon-specific) with jq to extract the price distribution.
• "Phone number / address for X" — google-maps-place or yelp-place. Don't guess from training data.
• "Are people happy with X service?" / "Is X reputable?" — google-maps-reviews --place-id ... --sort lowest for negative samples; glassdoor-job for employer rep.
• "What's the salary range for Y role?" — indeed-listing filtered by role + location, then jq over .jobs[].salary.
• "Find me homes/apartments matching X criteria" — zillow-listing / redfin-listing / airbnb-listing with the corresponding filters.
• "Recent sold comps near X" — zillow-listing --type sold --keyword "X" --days-on-zillow 12m.
• "Track this product's price" — Loop amazon-product --asin X on a schedule; persist .price to a file.
• "Summarize / cite this YouTube video" — youtube-transcript-api --v-param VID --raw | jq -r '.transcript[].snippet' → feed to the sum
