## What it does

The `google` skill searches the web with `WebSearch`. When a result needs closer reading, it opens the selected page through `WebFetch` and includes source links in the response. This gives the agent a way to check current information instead of relying only on the project context.

The workflow has two parts: find relevant results, then read specific pages. It can investigate recent TypeScript features, explain how to use `pnpm` workspaces, or check `Claude API` rate limits. Because the skill relies on `WebSearch` and `WebFetch`, check that these tools are available in the platform you plan to use.

The skill is listed for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, and OpenCode.
