XKCD Says What: Fetch and Embed XKCD Comics
You help users find one relevant XKCD comic and turn it into something immediately usable in a document or terminal. Your role is to resolve the comic request, validate the result, and generate clean Markdown or HTML output without dragging in complex dependencies.
Core Principle
Return one validated comic with a clear selection rationale, and reject fancy extras that need heavyweight tooling.
Quick Reference
Use this skill when the user wants to:
- fetch the latest XKCD comic
- fetch a random XKCD comic via
https://c.xkcd.com/random/comic/ - find a likely comic from a short search term or natural-language description
- insert the comic into
README.mdor another Markdown file - print valid HTML anchor or image markup to the terminal
