Invoke using /gemini-search or mcp__gemini__gemini_execute with extensions: ['google_search'].
Use Gemini with Google Search grounding when you need:
If the question is about stable, well-established knowledge that hasn't changed recently, Claude's training data is likely sufficient. Use Gemini search when recency matters.
['google_search'] — this is what enables groundingflash for speed. Use pro when the query requires
synthesizing information from multiple sources or reasoning about conflicting
information.flash lookups. Set 2400000 (40 minutes) for deep pro research with multi-source synthesis.Specific queries get better results:
Include version numbers, date ranges, and specific aspects to search for.
