ketch

ketch is a Web research & fact-checking skill for AI agents, published by 1broseidon in the ketch repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates ketch C (77/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Research skill for ketch — a fast stateless CLI for web search, OSS code search, curated library docs, page scraping, and site crawling; an optional MCP server exists for operators who want it, but the CLI is the primary interface. Use when a question needs live sources: 'research X', 'what are people saying about Y', 'find docs or real-world examples for Z', 'scrape/crawl this site' — or when installing or configuring ketch backends. Routes search vs code vs docs vs scrape vs crawl, keeps every fetch inside a token budget, turns error prefixes into control flow, and produces cited syntheses. Not for local codebase search, private repos, or pages behind auth.
