# Interesting facts

> Get a surprising fact on demand — lightweight LLM trivia without web search.

Ask for a short, surprising fact without triggering a full web search. Ideal for casual curiosity.

## Quick start

```bash theme={null}
arka do tell something interesting
tell me something interesting
give me a fun fact
something cool about space
random fact about biology
```

## With a topic

```bash theme={null}
arka interesting_fact something interesting about quantum computing
something cool about the ocean
```

Arka returns 2–4 sentences — one idea, plain language.

## Routing

These phrases route to `interesting_fact` **before** general chat or `web_answer`, so no search tokens are spent.

```bash theme={null}
arka route "tell me something interesting"
# → interesting_fact ...
```
