Fixes web search on an agent whose model backend can't run it: a relay/reseller proxying Claude or Codex returns empty instead of failing. Use when web search returns nothing, a model insists a shipped product doesn't exist, someone wants to give an agent internet access, or the user is on a third-party base URL, relay, or 中转站. Diagnoses which built-in tools are dead, removes them, and installs a working replacement.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Agent Web Search Setup A model backend that cannot search is not the same as a model that searched and found nothing, but from inside the conversation the two look identical. This skill turns the first into the second, on whichever agent is in front of you. It configures the agent's tools; it is not itself a search engine, so nothing here answers a query directly — the proof of done is the agent's own session calling a real tool. ## What actually breaks Anthropic's `web_search` and `web_fetch` are **server tools**: the API runs them during the request and splices results into the same response. OpenAI's Responses API `web_search` works the same way. The client only ever declares the tool. A reseller that proxies to another cloud cannot execute those. Anthropic's own documentation states that web fetch is unavailable on Amazon Bedrock and Google Cloud; search was measured failing the same way on both. What comes back is not an error. It is an empty shell, so the model concludes the topic does not exist and says so with total confidence. That is the whole bug, and it is why users report their agent has "gotten stupid" rather than reporting a broken tool. …

How to install
mdr add daymade/claude-code-skills/agent-web-search-setup@sha256:417143817b92d309The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.db6fba9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
