Web Search is essential when you need information that may not be available in a static knowledge base, for example recent news, fresh research, or dynamic content that changes frequently.
Capabilities
The Web Search expert can:
- Search the web for sources relevant to a query
- Read specific URLs and extract their content
- Synthesize concise, source-grounded summaries
- Filter results to or from specific domains and tune search depth (basic vs. advanced)
Use cases
- Surfacing recent medical research and publications
- Verifying claims against multiple online sources
- Pulling current news, policy updates, or product information
- Retrieving information not yet indexed in static reference databases
Configuration
The Web Search expert exposes optional search configuration including include_domains, exclude_domains, max_results, and search_depth (basic or advanced). Use these to constrain results to trusted domains or to trade off latency for thoroughness.
The Web Search expert is a focused research sub-agent: it does not interact with end users directly, but instead follows structured orchestrator instructions and returns factual, well-organized findings grounded entirely in the data its tools return. Outputs use Markdown structure so downstream agents and humans can both consume them easily.
