When to choose this service
Use agent-oriented search to gather relevant evidence for a question with a defined scope.
Broad research loops can consume usage while producing little new evidence. Decide what would count as a complete answer first.
Suggested workflow
- Write down the question, acceptable source types and a maximum number of research passes.
- Run a focused search and preserve the returned source references with the findings.
- Use another pass only for a specific missing fact or contradiction.
Acceptance checks before real work
- Check whether sources actually answer the question rather than merely mention its keywords.
- Confirm freshness and exact product identity in the cited pages.
- Review the usage implications of your search options before raising depth or volume.
If the workflow fails
When no adequate source is found, report the missing evidence instead of presenting repeated search results as independent corroboration.
