web_search source guide

Available sources

source	engine	cost	best for
zhipu-cn-std	Zhipu basic	¥0.01/query	Chinese general queries, best cost-efficiency
zhipu-cn-pro	Zhipu advanced	¥0.03/query	Chinese queries needing higher recall, multi-engine collaboration
zhipu-cn-sogou	Zhipu + Sogou	¥0.05/query	Tencent ecosystem (WeChat/Zhihu), government procurement/bidding, real-time info with dates
zhipu-cn-quark	Zhipu + Quark	¥0.05/query	Time-sensitive vertical content (procurement, news, medical)

Zhipu engine selection tips

Default choice: zhipu-cn-std — cheapest
Procurement/bidding (招标/采购): prefer zhipu-cn-sogou — returns latest dated announcements from bidding platforms
Real-time info (weather, breaking news): zhipu-cn-sogou — fastest, strong Tencent news coverage
Deep content (medical guidelines, financial policy, tech reports): zhipu-cn-std — richer snippets from authoritative sources

Other sources

source	engine	cost	notes
brave	Brave Search API	$5/1k queries, $5/mo free credit	Structured JSON, stable quality, good for English queries
opensearch	Alibaba Cloud OpenSearch	¥0.0048/query	Chinese web search API, reliable
duckduckgo	DuckDuckGo HTML scraping	free	Good quality, but blocked in China. Heavy use may trigger anti-bot
bing	www.bing.com HTML scraping	free	Low quality on datacenter IPs — returns entity-level matches instead of content matches for complex queries
bing-cn	cn.bing.com HTML scraping	free	Same as bing, low quality, worse for Chinese vertical queries (e.g. "深圳招投标" returns only gov.cn homepage)

Source selection rules

No strict rules — try multiple sources when results are unsatisfying
Simple queries: lean toward free sources. Hard queries: lean toward paid sources
Chinese context: lean toward Chinese sources. Otherwise: lean toward English sources

dream

linanwx/nagobot

Nighttime dreaming. Reviews the past 24 hours of this session's conversation, reflects on what matters, overwrites dream.md with the result, and may schedule one next-day follow-up wake. Triggered by the heartbeat scheduler at night (should_dream=true) — never call directly.

manage-cron

linanwx/nagobot

Schedule nagobot's own background jobs — recurring tasks, one-time delayed tasks, and repeating reminders that nagobot itself delivers to the user as a message. Use when the user wants something to happen automatically later or on a repeat (every morning, every Monday, daily at a set hour, in two hours), or wants to create, update, remove, or list existing cron schedules. For an entry in the macOS Reminders or Calendar app instead, use apple-apps.

dispatch-guide

linanwx/nagobot

Use when about to call the `dispatch` tool and unsure which `to` form to pick, when a dispatch validation error reports a mismatch between asserted caller kind and actual caller, or when handling a `child_completed` wake from a previously dispatched subagent/fork. Focused decision tree for routing replies (caller:user / caller:session / user / session), spawning (subagent / fork), receiving child results, and silent termination.

thread-ops

linanwx/nagobot

Use when you need to interact with other threads or manage thread lifecycle. Covers dispatching work to subagents / forks / existing sessions via a single primitive, inspecting session state by key, scheduling a delayed self-wake (via the manage-cron set-at --direct-wake job), and running health diagnostics across all active threads.

heartbeat-wake

linanwx/nagobot

Routing layer for heartbeat pulses. Reads pulse_index from the wake message and dispatches to the appropriate sub-skill. Called automatically by the heartbeat scheduler — never call directly.

2026-07-1234

session-reflect

linanwx/nagobot

Background reflection on conversation history. Extracts user preferences, corrections, and workflow patterns into USER.md. Triggered by heartbeat at the 4-hour quiet mark — never call directly.
