Lean web search and web fetch tools for pi, aimed at smaller models.

webfetch - fetches a page and reduces it to the markdown of its main content (up to 50k characters). With compact, a model summarizes it (with an optional focus) before it reaches the agent's context. Images come back as attachments, converted and scaled the way pi's read tool does it (following the images.autoResize setting)
websearch - searches through Parallel's Search API, which returns markdown excerpts per result

pi install git:github.com/mmalecki/feather-pi-web

Or try it for one run with pi -e /path/to/feather-pi-web.

PARALLEL_API_KEY - enables websearch
WEBFETCH_COMPACT_MODEL - the provider/model that summarizes fetched pages, e.g. a small local one. Defaults to the session's model.

Summarizing runs without thinking, and its token usage counts towards the session's.
