It retrieves news articles and trend data with publication dates and source links, ideal for gathering latest market developments or industry updates.

How do I set up web search automation with API credentials?

Configure the zhipu_search_apikey in your environment variables or .env file. The skill reads this credential at runtime, connects to Zhipu's web_search API, and executes queries as a Python script. Results save to the output/ directory in structured format with titles, publishers, dates, and URLs.

What information does automated web search return from results?

Is web search automation suitable for batch query processing?

The skill runs as a Python script compatible with automation workflows. It handles individual queries with time-sensitive term analysis and outputs formatted results to files, making it applicable to research pipelines, but metadata does not specify batch-query capabilities or concurrency limits.
