oira666_pi-web-search

Provider-native web search for pi, across the currently selected Google Gemini, OpenAI, or Anthropic model, plus Gemini-only URL Context analysis.

Tools

web_search

Search the web using your currently selected model. Automatically picks the right provider API:

Provider	API
Google Gemini	Grounding with Google Search
OpenAI	Responses API web search, including pi's openai-codex OAuth Responses backend
Anthropic	Messages API web search, including Claude Code OAuth subscription tokens

Supports passing up to 20 additional URLs to analyze alongside the query.

url_context

Gemini-only. Analyze up to 20 public URLs — web pages, documents, images, and YouTube videos. Uses Gemini's native URL Context retrieval with verified metadata.

When using google-generative-ai, YouTube URLs are passed as file_data for native video understanding.

Install

pi install npm:oira666_pi-web-search

Usage

No extra config needed. Select a supported provider/model in pi and the tools use the currently selected session model.

The extension does not switch models or fall back to another configured model. If the currently selected model does not support provider-native web search, web_search is automatically removed from active tools. url_context is automatically removed from active tools when using a non-Gemini model.

Test

cp .env.example .env   # edit with your models
npm test               # unit tests
npm run test:real:web-search
npm run test:real:url-context
