News Reference
When the user asks for "latest news", "what's in the news today", or "news in category X", use the browser_use tool with the categories and URLs below: open the page, take a snapshot, then extract headlines and key points from the page content and reply to the user.
Categories and Sources
How to Use (browser_use)
- Clarify the user's need: Determine which category or categories (politics / finance / society / world / tech / sports / entertainment), or pick 1–2 to fetch.
- Pick the URL: Use the URL from the table for that category; for multiple categories, repeat the steps below for each URL.
- Open the page: Call browser_use with:
{"action": "open", "url": "https://www.chinanews.com/society/"}
Replace url with the corresponding URL from the table.
- Take a snapshot: In the same session, call browser_use again:
{"action": "snapshot"}
Extract headlines, dates, and summaries from the returned page content.
- Summarize the reply: Organize a short list (headline + one or two sentences + source) by time or importance; if a site is unreachable or times out, say so and suggest another source.
Notes
- Page structure may change when sites are updated; if extraction fails, say so and suggest the user open the link directly.
- When visiting multiple categories, run
open for each URL, then snapshot, to avoid mixing content from different pages.
- You may include the original link in the reply so the user can open it.
