It lets you perform web searches at different complexity levels (fast, standard, deep), fetch and parse web page content into markdown, create long-running research tasks, and batch multiple operations together. The library supports both blocking and async/await patterns, making it suitable for both simple scripts and production applications that need to avoid blocking I/O.\n\nThe SDK handles authentication via API key (passed directly, read from environment, or set via dotenv), manages HTTP requests through httpx, and validates responses using pydantic. It also includes optional support for the x402 payment protocol to pay for requests on-chain via EVM-compatible networks instead of API keys. All main functions have async counterparts prefixed with `async_`, enabling concurrent API calls without blocking.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction (two lightweight dependencies), carries no known vulnerabilities, and offers a clean async-first API for a useful service. MIT licensing poses no restrictions. Install it if you need programmatic web search, content fetching, or research task automation; skip it if you don't need external web data."},"id":"linkup-sdk","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/linkup-sdk","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/linkup-sdk.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/linkup-sdk/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-05","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"linkup-sdk","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A Python Client SDK for the Linkup API"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":314171,"position":7704,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.20.0"}
