Does it support AI-assisted searching?

Yes, subcommands like 'ddgo --ai' and 'hn ::' utilize AI to select, summarize, and provide more relevant search results directly in your terminal.

How do I handle network or proxy issues?

You can use the 'init' or 'cfg' subcommands for each tool (e.g., 'x ddgo init') to configure proxy settings and API endpoints for your environment.

Can I use the output in other developer scripts?

Yes, many tools in this skill support a --json flag, making the data easily processable by utilities like jq or custom automation scripts.

What sources can I search with this skill?

You can search Hacker News, Wikipedia, DuckDuckGo, Internet RFC documents, Project Gutenberg books, and Stack Exchange sites.

Do I need to install anything else to use this skill?
