Tips

Keep queries under 400 characters — think search query, not prompt.
Break complex queries into sub-queries for better results.
Use --include-raw-content when you need full page text (saves a separate extract call).
Use --include-domains to focus on trusted sources.
Use --time-range for recent information.
