searxng

# searxng — Local Search Fallback Use the local SearXNG instance when WebSearch is rate-limited, geo-blocked, or returns no results. ## Instance ``` http://10.0.3.202:8080/ ``` **Network note:** LAN-only. Reachable when connected to the studio network. Not accessible from cloud/remote contexts. If ECONNREFUSED, you are off-network — fall back to WebSearch. ## Usage ### JSON API (preferred for parsing) ``` WebFetch url="http://10.0.3.202:8080/search?q=<query>&format=json" prompt="extract: titles, urls, snippets from results array" ``` ### URL-encode the query Spaces → `+` or `%20`. Special chars → percent-encoded. Examples: ``` http://10.0.3.202:8080/search?q=rust+genai+crate+2026&format=json http://10.0.3.202:8080/search?q=kunal732+MLX+Swift&format=json http://10.0.3.202:8080/search?q=fastembed+rs+qdrant&format=json ``` ### Filter by category ``` http://10.0.3.202:8080/search?q=<query>&categories=general&format=json http://10.0.3.202:8080/search?q=<query>&categories=it&format=json http://10.0.3.202:8080/search?q=<query>&categories=science&format=json ``` ### JSON response structure ```json { "query": "...", "results": [ { "title": "...", "url": "...", "content": "...", "engine": "...", "score": 0.0 } ], "answers": [], "suggestions": [] } ``` ## When to use - WebSearch returns 429 (rate limit) - WebSearch returns no results for technical queries - Need fresh results without Google/Bing geo-filtering - Researching local network resources ## When NOT to use - WebSearch is working fine — prefer it (returns structured search results natively) - Query requires real-time data (SearXNG caches may lag)
