### Tool changes

- 2026-10-13 `web` changed (description)
  - before: Use when an agent needs to search the web: research, fact finding, finding official pages/docs, competitor or link discovery, grounding an answer with URLs. Returns ranked organic results (position, title, url, domain, snippet; published date or lastCrawled time when the source has one). The top 10 come from Bing's public RSS results; deeper pages (count > 10 or page > 1) come from Brave Search. Supports operators the engines support in q (site:, "exact phrase", -exclude, filetype:). If the primary source is unavailable or off-topic it falls back to Brave Search, then the Mwmbl open index; the response says which source answered (source, sourceUrl, fallbackFrom). Pair with ScrapeMole Reader /v1/read to turn a result URL into Markdown. Empty results = 404, not charged. Paid tool: x402 USDC on Base, $0.002 per successful call; call without payment to receive the PaymentRequired object.
