No setup at all also works: `npx @only-cli/oc` runs without a global install, and teaches its own commands through `--help` and the `actions:` line on every render.

A few of these (X, Stack Overflow, YouTube, Microsoft Learn search) read pages that look login-gated or JS-only from the outside, by finding the server-rendered HTML, feed, inline data, or public API the page already ships without a login. Stack Overflow search goes through the Stack Exchange API, and each result prints its `question_id`: read one with the `question <id>` feed rather than following its link, since the question page itself answers a bot challenge instead of the question. AWS and Google Cloud render docs search purely client-side with no feed, so their `search` goes through DuckDuckGo with a baked-in `site:` filter instead. Not supported yet: pages that only render with JavaScript, sites behind logins, and sites with hard bot challenges that expose no feed.
