Baidu Search Pro

Compatibility entry for our in-house Baidu realtime search chain. Use for live information, documentation, or research topics.

Baidu Search (compat alias)

Cross-platform Python: on Windows prefer py -3.11; on Linux/macOS prefer python3; if plain python already points to Python 3, it also works.

This skill is a backward-compatible alias for realtime-web-search. Use it only when an existing workflow still calls skills/baidu-search; new installs should prefer realtime-web-search directly.

What this alias keeps working

Both commands run the same canonical Baidu-based search chain:

py -3.11 skills/baidu-search/scripts/search.py '<JSON>'
py -3.11 skills/realtime-web-search/scripts/search.py '<JSON>'

Recommended modes

• mode=auto (default): web_search -> chat -> web_summary
• mode=search: web_search -> chat
• mode=summary: web_summary only

Prefer mode=search for speed and stability.
