Web tools and the webhook

The built-in tools of an Agent host agent: web fetch and web search, which are safe, and the outbound webhook, which always asks first.

  • Web fetch. Fetches a page. Safe when you turn it on.
  • Web search. Searches the web. Safe when you turn it on.
  • Webhook. Sends data to one address you set. Always risky: every call waits for approval.

What the web returns is data, not instructions. A page that says "ignore your rules" changes nothing.
