Web Search
Use this skill to find current information from the internet. You have access to both a high-level search engine and a deep-page fetcher.
Workflow
- Search: Use
web_search to find relevant URLs and summaries.
- Fetch: If a search result looks promising but the snippet is too short, use
web_fetch to read the full content of the page.
- Synthesize: Combine information from multiple sources to provide a comprehensive answer.
Tools
web_search
Search the web via Brave Search API.
query: The search term.
count: Number of results (default 5, max 10).
web_fetch
Fetch and extract raw text from a specific URL.
url: The full URL to fetch.
maxChars: Limit output size (default 50,000).
Tips
- Be specific with your search queries.
- If the first search doesn't yield good results, try rephrasing or using specialized keywords.
- Always cite your sources with URLs.
