## How to use `google_web_search` with the Gemini CLI
## How to use `web_search`
The `google_web_search` tool sends a query to the Gemini API, which then performs a web search. `google_web_search` will return a generated response based on the search results, including citations and sources.
`web_search` calls the Tavily API directly. You must configure the `TAVILY_API_KEY` through one of the following methods:
1. **Settings file**: Add `"tavilyApiKey": "your-key-here"` to your `settings.json`
2. **Environment variable**: Set `TAVILY_API_KEY` in your environment or `.env` file
3. **Command line**: Use `--tavily-api-key your-key-here` when running the CLI
If the key is not configured, the tool will be disabled and skipped.
Usage:
```
google_web_search(query="Your query goes here.")
web_search(query="Your query goes here.")
```

web_search(query="latest advancements in AI-powered code generation")
```
## Important notes
- **Response returned:** The `google_web_search` tool returns a processed summary, not a raw list of search results.
- **Citations:** The response includes citations to the sources used to generate the summary.
- **Response returned:** The `web_search` tool returns a concise answer when available, with a list of source links.
- **Citations:** Source links are appended as a numbered list.
- **API key:** Configure `TAVILY_API_KEY` via settings.json, environment variables, .env files, or command line arguments. If not configured, the tool is not registered.
