youdotcom-agent-skills is a plugin (open-source repository) that provides eight "agent skills" for integrating You.com's web search, research, and content-extraction APIs into popular AI agent frameworks. Per the README, it covers Vercel AI SDK, Claude Agent SDK (Python/TypeScript), OpenAI Agents SDK, crewAI, LangChain, Microsoft Teams.ai (with Anthropic Claude), a direct REST API skill, and a bash/curl CLI skill. Each skill offers step-by-step setup workflows, code templates, and validation checklists, and skills can be installed all at once or individually via npx skills add or bunx skills add. A You.com API key (YDC_API_KEY) is required for most skills, though the CLI's search function works without one on a free tier. The project is licensed under MIT.

Overview

You.com, per its homepage, positions itself as "The Leading Web Search APIs for AI," offering a Web Search API, Contents API, Research API, and Finance Research API, plus an MCP Server, aimed at powering AI agents, LLMs, and data pipelines with real-time web search, content extraction, and cited answers. The homepage cites enterprise features such as Zero Data Retention, SOC2 certification, and DPA readiness, and references benchmarks (e.g., DeepSearchQA, FinSearchComp) as well as customers including DuckDuckGo.

What you can do with youdotcom-agent-skills

  • Integrate You.com's youSearch/youContents tools into Vercel AI SDK apps using generateText() or streamText()
  • Connect Claude Agent SDK (Python/TypeScript, v1 or v2) to You.com's HTTP MCP server with bearer-token auth
  • Add You.com MCP tools to OpenAI Agents SDK via Hosted MCP or Streamable HTTP modes
  • Integrate You.com's remote MCP server with crewAI agents via MCPServerHTTP or MCPServerAdapter
  • Use LangChain (YouRetriever, YouSearchTool, YouContentsTool in Python; youSearch/youContents via @youdotcom-oss/langchain in TypeScript) for RAG and agent workflows
  • Add Anthropic Claude models to Microsoft Teams.ai apps, optionally with You.com MCP web search
  • Call You.com's Research, Search, and Contents APIs directly over HTTP in any language
  • Run web search, cited research, and content extraction from bash agents using curl and jq (search works without an API key on the free tier)
