Web Search
Search the web via the Serper Google Search API.
Setup
Get a free API key at https://serper.dev, then run /login in VSurf,
switch to MCP Connections, and choose Serper (web search) to paste it.
The key is stored in VSurf and made available to this skill automatically.
If web search reports a missing key, walk the user through those two steps;
don't ask them to set environment variables.
Optional overrides (environment variables):
VSURF_WEBSEARCH_TIMEOUT - HTTP timeout in seconds (default 45).
VSURF_WEBSEARCH_NUM_RESULTS - number of organic results to return (default 5).
Usage
Call the prepared websearch import directly in the IPython kernel:
print(await websearch("latest VSurf release"))
