How do I configure access?

Run /mcp in the agent and choose Serper (web search), then paste your free Serper API key. The key is stored in the agent and made available to this skill automatically.

What does it return for a query?

It returns titles, URLs, snippets, and knowledge-graph data for the single query you pass in.

What if web search reports a missing key?

Walk through the two setup steps: get a free key at https://serper.dev, then run /mcp and choose Serper (web search) to paste it. Do not ask the user to set environment variables.

Can I change the timeout or the number of results?

Yes. Set PRIME_AGENT_WEBSEARCH_TIMEOUT for the HTTP timeout in seconds (default 45) and PRIME_AGENT_WEBSEARCH_NUM_RESULTS for the number of organic results (default 5).

The websearch skill is a search tool for an AI agent. It sends one query to Google through the Serper API and returns titles, URLs, snippets, and knowledge-graph data. Setup needs a free Serper API key, which is pasted into the agent through the /mcp menu.
