Web search

What problem it solves

Local-only context cannot verify fresh public facts; copy-pasting URLs breaks flow.

How WriteX handles it

With network access and in-agent controls enabled, WriteX may query third-party services for public pages. Local Markdown is not bulk-uploaded; private files reach your model provider only when attached.

Typical use cases

  • Verify release dates or API changes
  • Summarize official docs for a tutorial section
  • Compare public specs with your draft

Works well with

Built for the AI agent; mind your BYOK provider policies; offline limits in Can I use WriteX offline?.

Common questions

Does search upload my vault? No automatic upload—only public URLs are fetched.

Offline? Web search needs a connection or degrades gracefully.
