Agent integration

Make Kestrel Search discoverable to Codex, Claude Code, and GitHub Copilot.

Agent integration

Kestrel Search can generate a SKILL.md that teaches supported coding agents when and how to use the command.

Interactive installation

kestrelsearch skill install

You will be prompted to choose an agent and whether the skill should be installed for the current project or globally.

Install for every supported agent

kestrelsearch skill install --agent all --scope global

Supported agents include:

• Codex
• Claude Code
• GitHub Copilot in VS Code

Restart the agent session after installing the skill.

Use Kestrel from an agent

JSON is the recommended output format:

kestrelsearch search \
  -q "recent Python packaging changes" \
  -q "Python packaging release notes" \
  --time-filter m \
  --top-k 3 \
  --output json

Agents can supply every query through repeatable -q or --query options; the positional query is optional. Progress is written to stderr, leaving stdout safe for parsing.
