@command(web_search) Usage: web_search --query Run: |

URL encode the query

QUERY=$(echo "$1" | jq -sRr @uri 2>/dev/null || echo "$1" | sed 's/ /+/g')

Option 1: Bing Search API (Recommended for China)

Get API key: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/bing-web-search-api/

BING_API_KEY="${BING_SEARCH_API_KEY:-}" if [ -n "$BING_API_KEY" ]; then result=$(curl -s --connect-timeout 10 "https://api.bing.microsoft.com/v7.0/search?q=${QUERY}&count=5"
-H "Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key: ${BING_API_KEY}" 2>/dev/null |
jq -r '.webPages.value[] | "(.title)\n(.url)\n(.snippet)\n---"' 2>/dev/null)

if [ -n "$result" ] && [ "$result" != "---" ]; then
  echo "$result"
  exit 0
fi

fi

Option 2: Brave Search API (Requires proxy in China)

Note: This key is configured in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json: BSAyEBmSu2o9kfTFDMTo5D2K7-Oy9JT

BRAVE_API_KEY="${BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY:-BSAyEBmSu2o9kfTFDMTo5D2K7-Oy9JT}" result=$(curl -s --connect-timeout 10 "https://api.search.brave.com/res/v1/web/search?q=${QUERY}&count=5"
-H "Accept: application/json"
-H "X-Subscription-Token: ${BRAVE_API_KEY}" 2>/dev/null |
jq -r '.web.results[] | "(.title)\n(.url)\n(.description)\n---"' 2>/dev/null)

if [ -n "$result" ] && [ "$result" != "---" ]; then echo "$result" exit 0 fi

Option 3: Try DuckDuckGo (will likely timeout in China)

result=$(curl -s --connect-timeout 5 "https://api.duckduckgo.com/?q=${QUERY}&format=json&no_html=1&skip_disambig=0" 2>/dev/null) if [ -n "$result" ] && echo "$result" | jq -e '.AbstractText != null' > /dev/null 2>&1; then echo "$result" | jq -r '.AbstractText' exit 0 fi

Option 4: Bing Web Search (HTML fallback)

result=$(curl -s --connect-timeout 10 "https://cn.bing.com/search?q=${QUERY}" 2>/dev/null |
grep -oP '(?<=<a href=")[^"]*' |
head -5)

if [ -n "$result" ]; then echo "$result" | sed 's/$/\n/' exit 0 fi
