Instructions

  • Read the source post first: https://claude.com/blog/web-search-api
  • Do not invent APIs, parameters, or pricing beyond what the post states.
  • If the post describes multiple capabilities (e.g., web search vs URL fetch), keep them separate and label them clearly.

What to produce

  • A short implementation checklist.
  • A risk/controls checklist if the post mentions admin or policy controls.
  • A minimal example request/response outline only if the post includes concrete examples (otherwise point back to the source).

Examples

Example: Converting the post into an engineering checklist

  • Summarize the capability.
  • Identify when it should be enabled.
  • List operational controls and costs (if present in the source).
  • Add a test plan (latency, correctness, citation coverage).
