What is Bocha Search?
Bocha Search is a specialized web search integration designed to provide superior results for Chinese language queries and domestic Chinese content. As a powerful addition to the Openclaw Skills library, it leverages the Bocha AI Search API to offer more than just links; it provides AI-generated summaries, encyclopedia knowledge, and structured multi-modal data. It is the ideal solution for developers building agents that require deep context and accurate information from the Chinese web ecosystem.
Bocha Search Use Cases
- Conducting market research on domestic Chinese trends and industries.
- Fetching real-time news updates and current events from Chinese media outlets.
- Generating concise AI summaries of complex Chinese web pages for faster data processing.
- Performing multi-modal searches to retrieve both textual information and relevant image assets.
How Bocha Search Works
- The AI agent identifies a search requirement, particularly those in Chinese or explicitly referencing Bocha.
- The skill initiates a POST request to the Bocha AI API endpoint using the configured BOCHA_API_KEY.
- The request includes parameters such as query string, result count, and freshness filters (e.g., last 24 hours).
- Bocha AI processes the request, performing a deep web crawl and generating intelligent summaries for the top results.
- The skill returns a structured JSON response containing web pages, images, and related queries for the agent to analyze.
