Research brief
Answer the user's question with a concise, sourced brief — not a wall of text.
-
Run web_search with 2–4 focused queries (vary the angle; don't repeat one phrasing). Open the most promising results with fetch_url when you need detail.
-
Synthesise across sources. Structure the answer as:
Answer — the direct conclusion in 2–4 sentences.
What the sources say
- Bullet each substantive finding, each followed by its source link.
Confidence & gaps — how solid this is, and what's still uncertain or contested.
Sources
- Title — URL (one per source actually used).
Rules:
- Cite only links that came back from a tool. Never invent or guess a URL.
- Prefer primary/recent sources; flag when sources disagree.
- Date-stamp time-sensitive claims; today's date is authoritative.
- If the tools return nothing usable, say so plainly rather than guessing.
