Search the live web and read full pages with You.com. Use whenever a task needs information newer than training data or from outside the codebase: current library docs and API references, changelogs and release notes, breaking changes, error messages, package versions, pricing, news, or any claim to verify with cited sources. Works keyless through the free MCP profile when no You.com credentials are configured.
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
# Search Skill Use `you-search` to discover web sources and `you-contents` to read specific URLs. Search finds candidate sources; reading extracts reliable evidence. Build answers from read evidence, not snippets alone. Answer with citations from sources that actually support the claim. Always finish with a non-empty answer; if evidence is incomplete, give the best-supported partial answer and mark what remains unknown. ## Search Pipeline ### Phase 1: Plan 1. Restate the core question and identify the type of answer required (single value, list, comparison, ranking, explanation). 2. Break the question into 3-5 research items, and for each draft a 3-6 word keyword query (one facet per query — never paste the whole question). 3. For each item, list the value/source/date to find and the 3-6 word query for it, plus domain/recency/locale filters only if they clearly help. ### Phase 2: Investigate 1. **Search broadly**: `you-search` to find relevant pages. Read snippets to identify which pages have the data you need. …

How to install
mdr add youdotcom-oss/agent-skills/you-web@sha256:aa84b1e84381615cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.5.0, 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.
