JAIL Search

Search a billion+ documents — papers, books, code, legal cases, forums, Wikipedia, and more. Returns titles, authors, URLs, and short descriptions — for discovering sources and links, not retrieving full content. After finding relevant results, use their URLs with fetch or browsing tools to read the actual documents.
