Halo CLI Search#

Use this skill for halo search.

This is the main Halo CLI workflow that can run without authenticated console access when --url is provided.

Command#

bash

halo search --help

Common Flows#

Search with a direct public site URL:

bash

halo search --keyword "halo" --url https://www.halo.run

Search with the active or selected profile:

bash

halo search --keyword "release notes"
halo search --keyword "release notes" --profile production

Limit results and emit JSON:

bash

halo search --keyword "plugin" --limit 5 --json

Rules#

• --keyword is required.
• --limit must be a positive number.
• --url targets a public Halo site directly and avoids authenticated console access.
• If --url is omitted, Halo CLI resolves the base URL from the active or selected profile.
• Use --json when another tool needs to parse search results.

Related Skills#

• Use halo-cli-auth if the task first needs a profile.
• Use halo-cli-content after search when the goal shifts to editing posts or pages.
