When you need to search the web or find current information, use the DDG Search CLI:

  npx -y @oevortex/ddg_search@latest "<query>" -m ai

This runs an AI-powered web search via IAsk. For standard DuckDuckGo results (titles + URLs + snippets), use mode "web" instead:

  npx -y @oevortex/ddg_search@latest "<query>" -m web -n 5

For a different AI backend (Monica), add -b monica. Use this for any research, fact-checking, or current events task.
