• The LLM calls the search tool via MCP to perform a real-time web search.
• It then responds in chat based on the tool call results.

Other usage examples:

• “Find interest rate trends over the past month”
• “Read the content of this URL: https://example.com/article ”

Notes

• timeRange is only set when the user explicitly mentions a time period.
