Use when searching public content on a Halo site with Halo CLI. This includes keyword search, site URL based search, result limits, or any search that does not require authenticated console access. Trigger this skill whenever the user wants to search a Halo site from the terminal, even if they do not explicitly mention 'search'.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Halo CLI Search

Use this skill for `halo search`.

This is the main Halo CLI workflow that can run without authenticated console access when `--url` is provided.

## Command

```bash
halo search --help
```

## Common Flows

Search with a direct public site URL:

```bash
halo search --keyword "halo" --url https://www.halo.run
```

Search with the active or selected profile:

```bash
halo search --keyword "release notes"
halo search --keyword "release notes" --profile production
```

Limit results and emit JSON:

```bash
halo search --keyword "plugin" --limit 5 --json
```

## Rules

- `--keyword` is required.
- `--limit` must be a positive number.
- `--url` targets a public Halo site directly and avoids authenticated console access.
- If `--url` is omitted, Halo CLI resolves the base URL from the active or selected profile.
- Use `--json` when another tool needs to parse search results.

## Related Skills

- Use `halo-cli-auth` if the task first needs a profile.
- Use `halo-cli-content` after search when the goal shifts to editing posts or pages.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add halo-dev/cli/halo-cli-search@sha256:71ac1c3a1575172d

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
