1The call
curl -H "x-api-key: $SS_KEY" \ "https://api.socialsearchapi.com/v1/web/search?query=cloudflare+workers+pricing"
This call costs 1 credit. A new account starts with 50 free credits on any platform: create a key in the dashboard and this command runs as-is.
2Why not build this yourself
html.duckduckgo.com answers scripted GETs with a 202 bot challenge, and Google and Bing don't permit automated HTML access at all. A licensed search API is the stable, compliant path to programmatic web results.
