Web Research

When to Activate

• "Research [topic]", "compare [A] vs [B]", "what are the pricing plans for [service]"
• "Find documentation about [API]", "competitive intelligence on [company]"
• Any request requiring information from multiple websites

Workflow

1. Create session: create_browser_session()
2. Plan 2-5 target URLs based on the user's question
3. For each site: a. navigate(session_id, url, wait_until: "networkidle") b. extract(session_id, "main", extract: "textContent") (or "article", "body")
4. Process if needed: execute_code(code: "analysis script", language: "python")
5. Synthesize into a report with source citations
6. Save to memory if valuable: save_memory(key: "research/[topic]", value: summary)
7. Destroy session: destroy_session(session_id)

Output Format
