What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Example HTTP tool definition for a fictional web search API. Copy and adapt for real services.

SKILL.md

1.6 KB, as published. Nobody here has run it

Tool: Example Web Search (template)

This is a template tool definition. Its status is example, so validators and loaders will recognize it as non-executable scaffolding. Copy this file to tools/<your-tool>.md, change the status to active, and point it at a real service.

Authentication

Set the API key in your environment:

export WEB_SEARCH_API_KEY="your-key-here"

The tool reads WEB_SEARCH_API_KEY at call time. Never hardcode keys in this file.
