Chrome has had a similar feature for many years. Arguably quicker because you can assign any key press(es) you like. For example I have mine setup such that typing ‘drive foo’ searches Google drive for the term foo. I had kagi as my default search engine but had Google easily available as a back up by typing ‘g <search term>’ in the address bar.
Unfortunately, having both search engines easily available led me to discover as much as I like Kagi I just use google more, despite its ads. Google is faster to get answers to simple questions (it usually answers them on the results page, without another click) and shows more results, although you need an extension for the latter.

What you’re referring to are bangs, which Kagi has offered for a long time already. For your example that would be !g to search on Google. You can also add custom bangs.
The new snaps addition is something else: it gives you Kagi search results, but limited to that website. It’s the same as adding site:stackoverflow.com to your search query, but with an easier syntax (same syntax as bangs, but with an @ instead of an exclamation mark).
It's nice too. I have several "Snaps" before snaps existed, i used `!red` for `site:reddit.com`/`!sub rust` for `site:reddit.com/r/rust` searches and whatnot. `@red` will be a lot easier!
