web-search

The web-search skill enables real-time internet queries through the MiniMax MCP Server to retrieve current news, events, stock prices, weather, and technical information that may exceed training data cutoffs. Use this skill when users need up-to-date facts, latest product versions, recent events, or real-time data that static training knowledge cannot provide, following best practices for keyword crafting, source citation, and multi-step search refinement.

# Web Search

Search the internet for real-time information using the `web_search` tool provided by MiniMax MCP Server.

## When to Use

Use web_search when the user needs:

- Latest news, events, or weather
- Real-time data (stock prices, exchange rates, sports scores, etc.)
- Facts that may be outdated in your training data
- Up-to-date information about specific products or services
- Latest versions of technical documentation

## Search Strategy

1. **Craft effective keywords**: Keep them short and precise, remove filler words. Prefer English for technical queries
2. **Add time constraints**: Include the year or "latest" in keywords when seeking current information
3. **Multi-step search**: Start with broad overview keywords, then refine based on results
4. **Cross-verify**: Confirm important facts from at least two sources

## Output Guidelines

- Cite sources (URLs) in your response
- Distinguish between facts and speculation
- If search results are insufficient to answer the question, state so honestly
- Do not copy-paste large blocks of search results; distill the key information

## Example

User: "What is the latest version of Bun?"

Search strategy:
1. `web_search("Bun latest release 2026")`
2. If more details are needed, use `WebFetch` to retrieve the release notes page

Response: Include version number, release date, key changes, and source links.
