Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| web_searchA | Web search via SearXNG (metasearch). Aggregates Google, DuckDuckGo, Brave, Wikipedia and more. Returns titles, URLs and snippets, plus direct answers and infoboxes when available. Supports category (news, images), time range (day, month, year), domain (include/exclude) filters, specific engines and safe search. Use for questions requiring up-to-date information from the internet. |
| web_search_advancedA | Advanced web search with full filter control: domains, exact dates, specific engines, categories, safe search. Use when you need precise filtering — e.g. "articles from the last month only from arxiv.org and github.com". Includes direct answers, infoboxes, suggestions and spelling corrections. |
| web_fetchA | Extracts page content as clean text. Supports two modes: "text" (full page, default) and "highlights" (most relevant excerpts for a query, ~10x fewer tokens). Prefer "highlights" with a query for factual searches. Use "text" for deep analysis. Ideal for reading articles, documentation and blogs. |
