Cross-Validated Search for OpenClaw
This skill gives OpenClaw a practical verification workflow:
search-web for live search results
browse-page for reading the full content of a source
verify-claim for support/conflict classification
evidence-report for a citation-ready summary with next steps
Install
pip install cross-validated-search
Minimum verification
search-web "OpenAI API pricing" --type news --timelimit w
verify-claim "Python 3.13 is the latest stable release" --deep --max-pages 2 --json
evidence-report "Python 3.13 stable release" --claim "Python 3.13 is the latest stable release" --deep --json
Recommended flow
- Run
search-web for factual or recent questions.
- Use
browse-page on the most relevant source when snippets are not enough.
- Use
verify-claim when a concrete claim needs a support/conflict summary.
- Use
evidence-report when you want a compact evidence package with citations and next steps.
- Use
--deep when the claim matters enough to justify page-aware verification.
- Cite the returned URLs in the final answer.
What success looks like
- the verdict is explicit
- the result includes support and conflict scores
page_aware is true when deep verification ran
- the recommended free path is
ddgs + self-hosted searxng
- source URLs are ready to cite
Limits
verify-claim is heuristic and evidence-aware, not a proof engine.
- The default provider path is
ddgs.
- The recommended free upgrade path is self-hosted
searxng via CROSS_VALIDATED_SEARCH_SEARXNG_URL.
- Conflicting sources are surfaced, not automatically reconciled.
