$0 data tools: search, scrape, extract. The free-first replacement.
WildGoose is the free alternative to gooseworks. Command-line data engine: search (DuckDuckGo HTML scrape, no API key), scrape (httpx or headless Playwright), extract (structured JSON via Gemma→Haiku fallback). All local-first, all $0.
Built as a skill within the Quaigbot agent framework. Keeps a SQLite cache with a savings ledger showing gooseworks credits NOT spent. 19/19 pytest verified, live on production. Extensible via the Provider interface — add Reddit, Twitter, LinkedIn scrapers as plugins without touching core logic.
