What is Multi Search Engine?
The Multi Search Engine skill is a powerful expansion for AI agents, integrating 8 Chinese domestic and 9 international search engines into a single workflow. By utilizing this within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, developers can bypass the complexity of individual API integrations while gaining access to massive data pools from Baidu, Google, DuckDuckGo, and specialized platforms like WolframAlpha.
This skill is designed for high-performance web crawling and data gathering. It provides an abstraction layer over standard search queries, allowing agents to pivot between privacy-focused engines, regional specific results (CN/HK/INT), and computational knowledge engines for complex fact-checking and real-time data retrieval.
Multi Search Engine Use Cases
- Aggregating search results across different geographical regions (CN vs Global).
- Conducting privacy-preserving research using DuckDuckGo, Startpage, or Brave Search.
- Automated data scraping and document discovery using advanced filetype and site-specific operators.
- Real-time financial conversions and mathematical computations via WolframAlpha integration.
- Monitoring trending topics across diverse platforms like WeChat, Toutiao, and Ecosia.
How Multi Search Engine Works
- The AI agent identifies a search requirement and selects the most appropriate engine based on the query type (e.g., regional vs. global).
- The skill constructs a URL-encoded query using the optimized endpoint templates for the selected search engine.
- A web_fetch operation is executed to retrieve the HTML content of the search results page.
- Advanced operators (site, filetype, etc.) and time filters are appended to the query parameters to refine result accuracy.
- The agent parses the returned data to extract relevant links, snippets, or computational answers.
Multi Search Engine Setup
To integrate this capability into your project using Openclaw Skills, ensure your environment supports web fetching and include the skill configuration in your agent's manifest.
# Clone the skill into your project
git clone https://github.com/openclaw/multi-search-engine.git
# No API keys are required; ensure network access to the target engines
Multi Search Engine Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill utilizes specific URL parameters to organize metadata and filter results. Below is the taxonomy for search refinement:
| Feature | Metadata Parameter | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Time Filter | tbs=qdr:[h/d/w/m/y] |
Restricts results by hour, day, week, month, or year. |
| Region | ensearch=[0/1] |
Toggles between Chinese and International results for Bing. |
| Source | !bang |
DuckDuckGo shortcuts to redirect queries to specific domains like GitHub or Stack Overflow. |
| Knowledge | {keyword} |
Direct injection into WolframAlpha for structured data responses. |
Multi Search Engine Advanced Features
- Multi-Region Support: Seamlessly switch between 8 CN-specific engines and 9 global engines.
- Privacy-First Research: Native support for GDPR-compliant and non-tracking engines like Qwant and Startpage.
- Computational Queries: Deep integration with WolframAlpha for math, stocks, and unit conversions.
- Advanced Search Operators: Full support for exact match, exclusion, and boolean logic within standard web_fetch calls.
- Zero-API Architecture: Enables scaling without the overhead of managing third-party API quotas or tokens.
