Tasks that involve Web search
SKILL.md covers 🚀 First Run (Setup Wizard), 🔑 API Keys Setup (Manual), ⚠️ Don't Modify Core OpenClaw… and 🧠 Intelligent Auto-Routing, plus 6 more sections
Runs Python and Shell scripts from its folder; calls python3; reaches serper.dev and tavily.com; needs SERPER_API_KEY and TAVILY_API_KEY

What it does

Web Search Plus is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Unified search skill with Intelligent Auto-Routing. Uses multi-signal analysis to automatically select between Serper (Google), Tavily (Research), and Exa (Neural) with confidence scoring.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including scripts (for example `CHANGELOG.md`, `README.md` and `config.example.json`).

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Web search. It works with Tavily. The repository describes itself as: Top OpenClaw skills, with the most popular and useful ones.

When your agent uses it

Tasks that involve Web search

Example prompts

“/web-search-plus”

Requirements

Python 3
A Bash shell
A credential in SERPER_API_KEY
A credential in TAVILY_API_KEY

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Explain each provider — What they're best for, free tier limits, signup links
Ask which providers to enable — You can use 1, 2, or all 3
Collect API keys — Keys are stored locally in config.json (gitignored)
Configure defaults — Default provider, auto-routing, result count

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b80cde2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python and Shell), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
- serper.dev
- tavily.com
- exa.ai
- stripe.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
- SERPER_API_KEY
- TAVILY_API_KEY
- EXA_API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Web Search Plus loads about 3.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,058 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~3.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
