Google Events Search

Search Google Events through Frevana.

Purpose

This skill calls Frevana's /service/google-events endpoint and returns the SerpAPI response unchanged.

Required input: q.

Supported request fields:

• q (required)
• location
• uule
• gl
• hl
• start
• htichips
• no_cache
• async
• zero_trace

The script validates that the response is JSON and prints it to stdout. Do not rewrite or reshape returned data unless the user explicitly asks for a transformation.

What This Skill Needs

• query
• FREVANA_TOKEN in the environment variables, or --token for the current run
• curl, bash, and python3

The API base URL defaults to https://ai-factory.frevana.com. Set FREVANA_API_BASE_URL to point at another host.

Commands

Search events

bash <skill-path>/scripts/search_google_events.sh \
  --q "Events in Austin, TX"

Search with event filters

bash <skill-path>/scripts/search_google_events.sh \
  --q "Events in Chicago" \
  --htichips "event_type:Virtual-Event,date:today"

Save JSON to a file

bash <skill-path>/scripts/search_google_events.sh \
  --q "Q" \
  --output "./out/google-events-search.json"

Fixed Request Shape

The script sends this payload shape, omitting optional fields that were not provided:

{
  "q": "Q",
  "location": "LOCATION",
  "uule": "UULE",
  "gl": "GL",
  "hl": "HL",
  "start": 1,
  "htichips": "HTICHIPS",
  "no_cache": true
}

Do not pass unsupported fields. Do not pass SerpAPI engine or api_key; Frevana sets those server-side. Use --output for local file saving.

Output

• Success: validated JSON on stdout
• With --output: the same JSON is also written to the requested file
• Failure: response body or parsing error on stderr, with a non-zero exit code

Example Prompts

• "Search Google Events for query."
• "Run Google Events Search and save the raw JSON."
