Linkup - Web Search & Fetch API

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: npx gooseworks login

The /search endpoint allows you to retrieve web content.

Parameters:

  • depth* (string) - Defines the precision of the search. standard returns results faster; deep takes longer but yields more comprehensive results.

  • structuredOutputSchema (object) - Required only when outputType is structured. Provide a JSON schema (as a string) representing the desired response format. The root must be of type object.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take gooseworks-ai/web-search-linkup from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference npx. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
