Web Search & Online Retrieval

This skill performs web searches and automatically extracts content from the results. It returns unstructured content ready for direct summarization — no sandbox analysis is needed.

Core Concepts

This tool acts as an intelligent web search engine that both searches and extracts page content in a single call. When you use this tool, it automatically:

1. Performs a web search using the provided keyword
2. Extracts and returns content from the top results

Important: Because content extraction is built-in, there is no need to separately call a browser/web-extract tool after using this search. The returned content is unstructured text — summarize it directly rather than attempting structured data analysis.

Tips for Effective Keywords

1. Be specific: "best budget wireless earbuds 2026" works better than "earbuds"
2. Use natural language or key phrases: Both "what is the capital of France" and "capital France" are valid
3. Include context when needed: Add qualifiers like year, region, or domain to narrow results
4. Combine terms for precision: "iPhone 16 Pro Max battery life review" targets more relevant pages than "iPhone battery"
5. Use English or the target language: Match the language to the content you want to find

Display Rules

1. Summarize directly: The returned content is unstructured text. Provide a clear, concise summary rather than dumping raw content.
2. Cite sources: Always include the title and URL of each result so the user can verify information.
3. Present multiple perspectives: When results contain diverse viewpoints, present them fairly.
4. Indicate freshness: Note when information appears to be very recent or potentially outdated.
5. Handle empty results: If the search returns no results or irrelevant content, suggest refining the keyword and offer alternative search terms.
6. No sandbox analysis: Never route the output to a data analysis sandbox. Summarize inline.

Important Limitations

• Unstructured output: Results are free-form text, not structured data tables. Do not attempt SQL-like processing.
• No persistent storage: Search results are not saved to any database for later querying.
• Single keyword input: The tool takes one keyword string per call. For multi-faceted research, make multiple calls with different keywords.
• Content extraction included: Do not call a separate web-extract tool on these results — extraction is already done.

User Expression & Scenario Quick Reference

Applicable — Any task requiring live web information:

Not applicable — Tasks that don't need web search:

• Querying internal databases or structured datasets (use appropriate data query tools)
• Analyzing files the user has already uploaded locally
• Performing calculations or data transformations on existing data
• Generating creative content without needing external references
• Tasks involving Amazon ABA data (use the ABA data explorer instead)

Boundary judgment: When users say "find out about" or "research", if they need current, external web information, this skill applies. If they are referring to internal data, historical databases, or local file analysis, it does not apply.
