Implementation Reference
- index.ts:65-87 (handler)The `searchWeb` function that executes the core logic of the 'search_web' tool by querying Jina AI's search API and parsing the response.
async function searchWeb(params: z.infer<typeof SearchWebSchema>) { const headers: Record<string, string> = { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${JINA_API_KEY}`, 'Accept': 'application/json', 'X-Retain-Images': params.retain_images, 'X-With-Generated-Alt': params.with_generated_alt.toString(), 'X-Return-Format': params.return_format }; const queryString = encodeURIComponent(params.query); const url = `https://s.jina.ai/${queryString}?count=${params.count}`; const response = await fetch(url, { method: 'GET', headers, }); if (!response.ok) { throw new Error(`Jina AI Search API error: ${response.statusText}`); } return SearchResponseSchema.parse(await response.json()); } - schemas.ts:44-50 (schema)Zod schema defining the input parameters for the 'search_web' tool.
export const SearchWebSchema = z.object({ query: z.string(), count: z.number().optional().default(5), retain_images: z.enum(['none', 'all']).optional().default('none'), with_generated_alt: z.boolean().optional().default(true), return_format: z.enum(['markdown', 'text', 'html']).optional().default('markdown') }); - index.ts:118-122 (registration)Registration of the 'search_web' tool in the ListTools handler, providing name, description, and input schema.
{ name: "search_web", description: "Search the web using Jina AI's search API", inputSchema: zodToJsonSchema(SearchWebSchema) }, - index.ts:145-149 (registration)Dispatch handler in the CallToolRequestSchema that parses arguments, calls searchWeb, and formats the response.
case "search_web": { const args = SearchWebSchema.parse(request.params.arguments); const result = await searchWeb(args); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }] }; } - schemas.ts:52-66 (schema)Zod schema for parsing the output response from Jina AI's search API.
export const SearchResponseSchema = z.object({ code: z.number(), status: z.number(), data: z.array(z.object({ title: z.string(), description: z.string().optional(), url: z.string(), content: z.string(), images: z.record(z.string()).optional(), links: z.record(z.string()).optional(), usage: z.object({ tokens: z.number() }) })) });
