- `search_knowledge`: Search everything Maps Agent publishes about Google Maps and Google Business Profile for local businesses: answers, guides, research, glossary, blog, industry pages. Use it first for any question (getting more Google reviews, choosing a Business Profile category, a suspended profile, ranking in the map pack). Returns ranked pages with title, one-line summary, form, last-updated date and URL; read one in full with get_article.
