Web Search

Search the internet for real-time information using the web_search tool provided by MiniMax MCP Server.

When to Use

Use web_search when the user needs:

• Latest news, events, or weather
• Real-time data (stock prices, exchange rates, sports scores, etc.)
• Facts that may be outdated in your training data
• Up-to-date information about specific products or services
• Latest versions of technical documentation

Search Strategy

1. Craft effective keywords: Keep them short and precise, remove filler words. Prefer English for technical queries
2. Add time constraints: Include the year or "latest" in keywords when seeking current information
3. Multi-step search: Start with broad overview keywords, then refine based on results
4. Cross-verify: Confirm important facts from at least two sources

Output Guidelines

• Cite sources (URLs) in your response
• Distinguish between facts and speculation
• If search results are insufficient to answer the question, state so honestly
• Do not copy-paste large blocks of search results; distill the key information

Example

User: "What is the latest version of Bun?"

Search strategy:

1. web_search("Bun latest release 2026")
2. If more details are needed, use WebFetch to retrieve the release notes page

Response: Include version number, release date, key changes, and source links.
