WebSearch

WebSearch allows your Clovis models to access the Web in real time, enriching their responses with up-to-date information.

Concretely, your model can:

  • launch web searches,
  • analyze and synthesize recent content,
  • provide reliable and contextualized answers.

WebSearch is exposed as an MCP server that your application, agent, or orchestrator can call directly.

Info

Some models natively integrate WebSearch without MCP declaration. See the Native WebSearch — GPT-OSS page to learn more.

Prerequisites​

A valid Clovis API key (Bearer token)

The API key must have access to WebSearch

The models used must be authorized for this key

Network access to the Clovis gateway: https://llm-gateway.clovis-ai.fr

Info

If you don't have an API key yet, contact your Claranet account manager.

Configuration​

Connecting to WebSearch only requires two elements:

Minimal configuration
# Clovis gateway URL
CLOVIS_BASE_URL=https://llm-gateway.clovis-ai.fr/v1

The platform handles all backend complexity (routing, orchestration, search execution).
