Use bx as a fast search front-end. Optimize for useful queries, narrow result sets, and explicit fallback when a command is unavailable in the current plan.

Workflow

Choose the narrowest working subcommand first.
Start with a query that includes the target entity, task, and one disambiguator.
Add site constraints only after a broad query is noisy.
Inspect the JSON output and extract the relevant fields instead of dumping raw results.
If a subcommand returns OPTION_NOT_IN_PLAN, switch to a working alternative and say so briefly.

Choose The Command

Use bx web for general web research, documentation, discussions, and mixed result sets.
Use bx news for recent coverage and current-event style queries.
Use bx images when the user explicitly wants images or visual references.
Use bx videos when the user wants tutorials, talks, or walkthroughs.
Use bx places for local search. Pass plus either or coordinates.
