The following custom agenda command offers a prompt:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(org-add-agenda-custom-command
 '("x" "Search special files" search ""
   ((org-agenda-files '("~/special/")))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Best,
Matt
