What this server can do

4 functions, named and described by the server itself. Parameter names are shown because they say more about what a function does than its name usually does.

extract(url, prompt)
Fetch a webpage and extract specific information using AI. Use this when you need structured data from a page (e.g. pricing, specs, contact info) rather than the raw content. Costs 5 credits. If the page has no usable text (empty or JavaScript-rendered body), the model is NOT called: content comes back empty and usage.low_content is true, rather than a fabricated answer. Gate on usage.low_content (or usage.content_chars) to detect pages you cannot ground on. Returns: content (the extracted text), url, credits_used, credits_remaining, usage (input_tokens, output_tokens, content_chars, low_content). Args: url: The URL to extract from prompt: What information to extract (e.g. "list all pricing tiers with features" or "extract the author name and publication date") Required: url, prompt.
fetch(urls, include_raw_html)
Fetch one or more URLs and return their content as clean markdown. Use this to read articles, documentation, blog posts, or any page where you need the complete text, not just a snippet from search. Also supports PDF, DOCX, and other document formats. Costs 1 credit per URL. Max 10 URLs per request. Failed URLs are not charged. Set include_raw_html=true to also get the raw HTML source in each result. Useful for inspecting embedded URLs, data attributes, iframes, or script tags that are stripped during markdown conversion. Returns null for non-HTML content (PDF, DOCX, etc.). Same cost. Returns: results (array of {title, url, content, raw_html, published_time, success, error}), credits_used, credits_remaining. Args: urls: List of URLs to fetch (max 10) include_raw_html: Include raw HTML source in each result (default false) Required: urls.
research(query, topic, freshness, max_sources)
Perform comprehensive research on a topic. Decomposes your query into sub-queries, searches and reads multiple sources in parallel, then synthesizes a structured report with citations. Best for open-ended or comparative questions that need coverage from many angles. For simple factual lookups, use search instead (optionally with include_answer=true for cheap synthesis). Costs 25 credits. Returns: query, report (structured markdown with citations), sources (array of {title, url, fetched}), sub_queries (the decomposed queries), credits_used, credits_remaining, usage (token counts). Args: query: The research question or topic topic: "general" (default) or "news" (prioritize recent news articles) freshness: Filter by recency - "day", "week", "month", "year", or "YYYY-MM-DD:YYYY-MM-DD" max_sources: Maximum number of sources to use, 5-30 (default 20) Required: query.
search(query, topic, freshness, max_results, search_depth, include_answer, exclude_domains, include_domains)
Search the web for current information on any topic. Returns extracted page content, not just snippets. Best for factual lookups, specific questions, or when you need a list of sources. For open-ended questions that need synthesis across many sources, use the research tool instead. For news queries (current events, breaking news, politics, world events), set topic="news" to search news sources specifically. This returns recent articles with publication dates. Set include_answer=true to get an AI-synthesized answer alongside results (adds 5 credits). This is the sweet spot for most agent tasks, e.g. basic + include_answer = 8 credits, much cheaper than a full 25-credit research call. Returns: query, answer (if requested), results (array of {title, url, content, description, fetched, published_date}), search_depth, topic, elapsed_ms, credits_used, credits_remaining, altered_query. Args: query: The search query search_depth: "basic" (default) for extracted page content (3 credits), "snippets" for SERP snippets only without page fetching (1 credit) max_results: Number of results (default 10, max 20) include_answer: Generate an AI answer that synthesizes the search results (adds 5 credits) include_domains: Only include results from these domains (max 10) exclude_domains: Exclude results from these domains (max 10) topic: "general" for web search, "news" for news articles. use "news" for current events, breaking news, politics, or any time-sensitive query freshness: Filter by recency - "day", "week", "month", "year", or "YYYY-MM-DD:YYYY-MM-DD" Required: query.

Signals

These are separate measurements of different things. They are deliberately not combined into one score, because a popularity number that mixes website traffic with saves and stars cannot be checked or acted on.
