browse cloud search adds --provider and --mode flags

Introduced 2026-10-14 · score 0.98

HOW TO USE IT

When searching the web with a chosen provider or mode, run `browse cloud search` with a query and the relevant flags. Provider and mode selection requires the Search API upgrade, which the versioned source says was not yet deployed.

WHY THIS HELPS

Search the cloud while specifying a provider or search mode.

REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS

• Version: 0.11.2
• query (required): Search query.
• --provider: Search provider: `parallel` or `exa`. Omit to use the API default.
• --mode: Search tier: `fast` or `advanced` (Parallel only). Omit to use the provider's default tier. The docs do not state whether mode and provider are mutually exclusive.
• Prerequisite: Provider and mode selection requires the Search API upgrade; the versioned source says it was unavailable until that upgrade was deployed.
