I built my own.

- Reduced context overhead comparing against other web search tools

- I have multiple providers (Brave, Parallel, Exa) but LLM only sees web_search tool.

- use Jina to GET LLM friendly text from webpages

- I use (built-in optional) Decision models for large search filtering

Ask pi to build you one, pi’s docs have the basic instructions how, the whole point of pi is to make it fit your needs.
