What it does
Nimble Web Search Skills connects an agent to the Nimble service for search, scraping and structured data extraction from websites. The core `nimble-web-expert` skill searches, scrapes, maps and crawls sites, and runs site-specific extraction templates and web search agents with citations. One-command workflows sit on top: competitor intel, company deep dive, market finder, brand mention and launch monitoring, SEO intelligence, meeting prep, local places, healthcare provider verification against the NPI registry and talent sourcing. They spawn parallel subagents and return reports with dates and links.
Who it is for. Marketers, analysts and founders who need fresh facts about the market and competitors inside an agent session.
Good fit when
- Each week you need to see what competitors launched and how they rewrote their sites.
- Before a meeting a briefing on the person and their company with links is gathered.
- A list of every coffee shop in a neighborhood with reviews and a map is wanted.
- A pricing page is scraped into a table and the template reused later.
- An SEO specialist needs keywords, rankings and competitor content analysis.
Not a fit when
- Work is needed without an external paid service, as the skills rely on the Nimble API.
- Queries cannot be sent to a third party.
- Sites forbid automated data collection in their terms.
Example request
Check what competitors launched this week and show positioning and pricing changes with source links.Limitations
A Nimble account and a `NIMBLE_API_KEY`, or OAuth sign-in in the connector, are required; the service is commercial and sets its own limits and prices. Queries, page addresses and found data pass through Nimble infrastructure. Site terms on data collection and personal data law are the user's responsibility, especially in candidate sourcing and contact lookup workflows. Workflows remember earlier runs in files, which are worth cleaning.
How to disable. Remove the plugin with `/plugin` and the Nimble connector in settings. Take `NIMBLE_API_KEY` out of the environment or `~/.claude/settings.json` and revoke it in the account if you wish.
FAQ
How to connect it in Cursor?
With `/add-plugin nimble` or by cloning the repository: Cursor finds the skills through `.cursor-plugin/plugin.json`.
Is an API key needed in Claude?
No, if you connect the connector: the plugin registers the Nimble MCP server with OAuth sign-in. On first use run `/mcp` and sign in through the browser.
What works without the plugin?
The CLI works on its own, for example `nimble search --query "AI agent frameworks" --max-results 10`.
How are skills organized?
All sit flat under `skills/` and the category is recorded in `metadata.category` in `SKILL.md`, because plugin platforms require a flat tree.
Do skills remember earlier runs?
Yes, workflows learn from previous runs and surface only what is new. The memory location is described in `_shared/memory-and-distribution.md`.
