swiggy-search

Discovery on Swiggy spans three servers. Pick by intent:

User intent	Server	Command
restaurants delivering food	food	swiggy food search-restaurants -q <query>
a specific dish across restaurants	food	swiggy food search-menu -q <query>
the menu of one known restaurant	food	swiggy food menu --restaurant-id <id>
grocery / FMCG	instamart	swiggy instamart search -q <query>
frequent grocery items	instamart	swiggy instamart go-to-items
dine-in / reservations	dineout	swiggy dineout search -q <query> -c <city>
details of a dineout restaurant	dineout	swiggy dineout details <id>

Always

• Append --json --no-interactive so the result is machine-parseable.
• Filter and rank in your own prompt; do not assume the upstream sort order is meaningful.
• If error.code === "AUTH_REQUIRED" (exit 3), ask the human to run swiggy auth init and stop.

Steps

1. Map the user's request to the right server (table above).
2. If you don't know the parameter names, run swiggy schema <server> <tool> --json first.
3. Run the search.
4. Parse data and present a concise top-N list with name, rating, and id.
5. Hand control back — do not auto-call add-to-cart or book from a search step.

Example

swiggy food search-restaurants -q biryani -c Delhi --json --no-interactive
# → { "ok": true, "data": [ ... ], "meta": { "profile": "default" } }
