Oxylabs Web Search

Search the web and read web pages with Oxylabs AI Studio (alternative to Brave, DuckDuckGo or Tavily). Use this whenever the user wants to search the web, look something up, find current information or news, gather sources and links, or fetch the content of a specific page. It has two commands. search returns matching pages — titles, URLs, and optionally the page text. scrape pulls the content of a single URL as clean Markdown. It handles JavaScript-heavy sites and geo-targeting, has a free tier, and runs as dependency-free Python.
