What is Zhipu Web Search?
The Zhipu Web Search skill provides a robust interface for AI coding agents to interact with the Zhipu (BigModel) web search API. By leveraging the GLM-4-flash model, it allows agents to perform comprehensive internet searches, making it an essential addition to your collection of Openclaw Skills. It ensures that your automated workflows are not limited by training data cutoffs, providing access to live web data, breaking news, and current events through a secure and efficient protocol.
This skill is designed for developers who need their agents to stay current. It prioritizes security by utilizing environment variables for API key management and ensures data integrity by using jq for JSON escaping. Whether you are building a research assistant or a news aggregator, this skill provides the connectivity required for modern AI applications.
Zhipu Web Search Use Cases
- When a user asks for specific information that requires real-time web browsing.
- Retrieving the latest news or updates on a specific topic or industry.
- Verifying current facts or data points that change frequently, such as stock prices or weather.
- Conducting deep research within an automated agent workflow to provide cited evidence.
How Zhipu Web Search Works
- The AI agent identifies a need for external information based on the user's specific query.
- The skill validates the input query to ensure it meets length requirements (maximum 500 characters).
- A secure HTTPS POST request is sent to the official Zhipu API endpoint using curl with TLS 1.2+.
- The GLM-4-flash model processes the query through the dedicated web_search tool.
- The resulting JSON response is parsed using jq to prevent injection and ensure safe consumption.
- The agent receives the retrieved content and incorporates the findings into its final output.
Zhipu Web Search Setup
To get started with this skill, you must first obtain an API key from the BigModel user center. Then, configure your environment as follows:
# Export your Zhipu API key for the current session
export DOUBAO_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
# Ensure jq is installed for JSON processing
sudo apt-get install jq
For security, it is highly recommended to set the environment variable directly when running your agent rather than storing it in plain text shell configuration files.
Zhipu Web Search Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill interacts with the Zhipu API using a standard JSON request and response structure. Data is organized as follows:
| Component | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| DOUBAO_API_KEY | Env Var | Required authentication token for API access. |
| Query | String | The search string, limited to 500 characters for safety. |
| JSON Tooling | jq | Used to sanitize input and parse output fields. |
| Model | String | Uses the glm-4-flash model for efficient search processing. |
| Timeout | Numeric | Hardcoded 30-second curl timeout to prevent process hangs. |
Zhipu Web Search Advanced Features
- Multi-agent compatibility within the wider ecosystem of Openclaw Skills.
- Enhanced security features including forced TLS 1.2+ and JSON escaping using jq.
- Input validation mechanisms that limit query length to 500 characters to prevent buffer issues.
- Support for custom shell scripts to wrap search queries for complex automation pipelines.
- Detailed error handling that provides generic messages to prevent path or file hint leaks.
