What is 360 Web Search?

360 Web Search is a technical integration designed to connect AI coding agents and LLMs directly to the 360 search engine. It serves as an optimized solution for handling real-time Chinese web searches, domestic news updates, and regional business directories. By integrating this skill, your agents can retrieve data that falls beyond their offline training cutoff limits.

As part of the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, this tool runs secure HTTPS requests directly to the 360 API and does not write to the host filesystem or execute local shell scripts. It delivers highly structured results complete with AI-generated semantic summaries, helping models understand and ingest search context without unnecessary token overhead.

360 Web Search Use Cases

  • Querying breaking Chinese news, regional updates, and trending media content.
  • Retrieving current profiles of domestic enterprises, policy changes, and financial market reports.
  • Verifying facts or checking the status of products and public entities within the mainland Chinese web landscape.
  • Grounding AI conversations and RAG pipelines using verified source URLs and precise publication times.

How 360 Web Search Works

  1. Intent Extraction: The AI agent evaluates the user prompt and determines if live Chinese web search or factual grounding is necessary.
  2. Credential Validation: The skill verifies the active presence of the SEARCH_360_API_KEY environment variable.
  3. Interface Mapping: Based on search intent, the skill selects the appropriate endpoint, defaulting to the robust aiso-pro mixture search configuration.
  4. Secure Request Dispatch: The skill generates a unique session ID (sid) and transmits an HTTPS query to api.360.cn alongside any customized parameters.
  5. Response Extraction: The raw API response is parsed to capture document titles, original URLs, chronological timestamps (page_time), and semantic fragments (summary_ai).
  6. Context Synthesis: Cleaned search data is formatted and fed back into the agent context, with official sites flagged accordingly to ensure correct source attribution.

360 Web Search Setup

1. Retrieve Your API Key

  1. Log in to the 360 AI Platform.
  2. Navigate to Open Platform -> API Key Management.
  3. Create an application and copy the generated API Key.

2. Configure Your Environment Variables

Set the SEARCH_360_API_KEY variable on your host environment. Replace your_actual_key with the key obtained from the platform:

  • Linux (bash):
echo 'export SEARCH_360_API_KEY="your_actual_key"' >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc
  • macOS (zsh):
echo 'export SEARCH_360_API_KEY="your_actual_key"' >> ~/.zshrc && source ~/.zshrc
  • Windows (PowerShell):
setx SEARCH_360_API_KEY "your_actual_key"

3. Restart Application

Fully restart your AI terminal or developer environment to register the new environment variable. The skill will automatically detect the key upon the next search request.

360 Web Search Data Schema & Taxonomy

API Parameters (Web Search - /v2/mwebsearch)

Parameter Type Required Description
q string Yes The search query string. Special characters like + must be URL-encoded (e.g., %2B).
ref_prom string Yes The specific query engine configuration (e.g., aiso-pro or aiso-sr).
sid string Yes A unique request UUID/session identifier generated dynamically.
count integer No Maximum search results to return (range 1–20, default 10).
summary_len integer No Target length for the AI semantic summary (range 120–3000, default 500).
exclude_aigc string No Set to true to remove AI-generated content from the final results to avoid hallucinations.

Response Payload Structure (Common Top-Level)

Field Type Description
errno integer Error status code. 0 indicates successful operation.
message string Detailed explanation of error if errno is non-zero.
count integer Total count of results returned.
items array The core array containing specific search hits and metadata.

Search Item Structure

Field Type Description
title string The document or webpage title.
url string The target source destination URL (mandatory output).
page_time string Formatted publication or crawling timestamp (e.g., 2025-02-12 12:12:12).
summary_ai string Semantically extracted contextual summary (preferred field for LLM processing).
official_site integer Set to 1 if the webpage belongs to an officially verified entity.

360 Web Search Advanced Features

  • Diverse Search Interfaces: Supports specialized configurations like aiso-pro (the default advanced knowledge query), aiso-max (multi-query rewrite), aiso-news (news-oriented filtering), and aiso-km-e2 (boutique knowledge base targeting).
  • Comprehensive AI Search Engine: Integrates a POST-based AI Search endpoint (/v1/search/aisearch) providing conversational summaries, complete references, and raw streams compatibility.
  • Image-to-Image and Text-to-Image Searching: Employs vertical SaaS pathways (360so-v-ik and 360so-v-ig) to conduct keyword-based image searches or reverse image similarity lookups.
  • AIGC Suppression Filtering: Allows setting exclude_aigc=true to isolate search returns to human-authored materials, decreasing recursive loop patterns in agent processing.
  • Authority-Based Weights: Implements system and manual credibility thresholds (site_weight_sys and site_weight_manual) ranging from 0 to 8 to omit low-quality websites dynamically.
