web_search_tool

v1.0.0activeremote-queryhealthy+new version

OpenAI Agents SDK built-in web search tool. Lets the agent issue ad-hoc web queries when its dedicated MCP servers don't surface a useful answer. Calls OpenAI's hosted search backend; results are whatever OpenAI's search returns.

# Append to your project's .mcp.json (or merge into ~/.claude.json globally).
