Jina Cli

This is a clean Go CLI wrapper around Jina AI's reader and search APIs. It handles two main jobs: extracting LLM-friendly content from any URL (including X/Twitter posts with image captioning), and running web searches that automatically fetch and process top results. The implementation is refreshingly straightforward with zero dependencies beyond Cobra, ships as a single binary, and includes the usual niceties like batch processing from files, proxy support, and CSS selector targeting. What's nice is the dual output modes: JSON for piping into other tools, Markdown for direct reading. If you're building agents or automation that needs to read web content or search current information, this gives you a simple curl-installable command instead of handling HTTP yourself.
