SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires z-ai-web-dev-sdk, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Backend applications often require up-to-date information that cannot be pre-baked into the system. The web-search skill provides a reliable way to query the open web and return structured results for downstream processing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Real-time web search: fetch current information, articles, and research across sources.
  • CLI and SDK usage: perform quick lookups from the command line or within backend code.
  • Result handling: returns an array of structured items with url, name, snippet, host_name, date, and favicon for easy display and analytics.

Quick Start

Use the web-search skill to perform a search like "privacy-preserving computing" from the CLI or via the SDK. For example, run a CLI query or write code to invoke the web_search function with a query string and process the results.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get real-time web search results in a backend application?▼

To get real-time web search results in a backend application, you can use an SDK-based query function to fetch current information and articles across multiple sources. This returns structured data for downstream processing.

Can I perform quick web search lookups from the command line?▼

You can perform quick web search lookups directly from the command line using the skill's built-in CLI utility. This allows you to easily query topics and discover content without writing backend code.

What format do real-time web search results return for downstream processing?▼

Real-time web search results return an array of structured items containing url, name, snippet, host_name, date, and favicon fields. This structured format enables easy display and analytics in your application.

Do I need a specific SDK to integrate real-time web search into my app?▼

Yes, you need the z-ai-web-dev-sdk installed in your backend environment to integrate real-time web search. This dependency enables the core search function and returns structured result items.

What is the best way to fetch current news and articles across multiple sources?▼

The best way to fetch current news and articles across multiple sources is to use an SDK-based query function. This approach provides structured results with snippets and metadata for reliable content discovery.

Are there limitations when using SDK integration for real-time web searches?▼

When using SDK integration for real-time web searches, results depend on the availability of current information across queried sources. The skill provides utilities for formatting and filtering to manage the returned structured items.
