Prerequisites: This skill requires x402-payment. Complete the setup steps before first use. Security: Documentation only — no executable code or credentials. Wallet/keys stay on your machine; never stored here.

Service URLs

Payment Flow (x402 Protocol)

1. First request (no PAYMENT-SIGNATURE) -> 402 Payment Required with requirements JSON

Goggles (Custom Ranking)

Goggles let you re-rank news results — boost trusted outlets or suppress unwanted sources.

| Method | Example | |--|--| | Hosted | --data-urlencode "goggles=https://<hosted-goggle-url>" | | Inline | --data-urlencode 'goggles=$discard\ $site=example.com' |

Hosted goggles should be hosted on a public URL and include ! name:, ! description:, ! author: headers. Inline rules need no registration.

Syntax: $boost=N / $downrank=N (1–10), $discard, $site=example.com. Combine with commas: $site=example.com,boost=3. Separate rules with \ (%0A).

Allow list: $discard\ $site=docs.python.org\ $site=developer.mozilla.org — Block list: $discard,site=pinterest.com\ $discard,site=quora.com

Resources: See your upstream provider's Goggles documentation.

Search Operators

Use search operators to refine results:

• site:local-paper.com - Limit to specific news site
• "exact phrase" - Match exact phrase
• -exclude - Exclude term

Set operators=false to disable operator parsing.

Use Cases

• Breaking news monitoring: Use freshness=pd for the most recent articles on a topic.
• Custom news feeds with Goggles: Boost trusted sources and discard other sources.
• Historical news research: Use freshness=YYYY-MM-DDtoYYYY-MM-DD to find articles from specific time periods.
• Multilingual news: Combine country, search_lang, and ui_lang for cross-locale results.
• Data pipelines: Set include_fetch_metadata=true for fetched_content_timestamp on each result.

Notes

• SafeSearch: Defaults to strict
• Pagination: Use offset (0-9) with count
• Extra snippets: Up to 5 additional excerpts when extra_snippets=true
