| name | publicwww-search |
| description | Search PublicWWW to find websites using specific HTML/JS/CSS snippets. Use this skill to check if a cookie popup is from a widespread third-party CMP, to find additional test URLs for a CMP rule, or to discover how many sites use a particular consent banner pattern. |
PublicWWW Source Code Search
Search website source code via the PublicWWW API. Requires PUBLICWWW_KEY env var.
Caveat: PublicWWW indexes server-rendered HTML source only. CMPs injected purely via client-side JavaScript (e.g. tag managers, async script loaders) may not appear in results.
API
Download search results as CSV:
https://publicwww.com/websites/SEARCH_QUERY/?export=csvsnippetsu&key=$PUBLICWWW_KEY
CSV format: url;rank;snippet (one site per line, sorted by popularity rank).
Use export=csv instead of csvsnippetsu to get domain;rank without snippets.
