You want to use Brave Search for web_search

You need a BRAVE_API_KEY or plan details

Brave Search

Brave Search API

OpenClaw uses Brave Search as the default provider for web_search.

Get an API key

Create a Brave Search API account at https://brave.com/search/api/
In the dashboard, choose the Data for Search plan and generate an API key.
Store the key in config (recommended) or set BRAVE_API_KEY in the Gateway environment.

Config example

{
  tools: {
    web: {
      search: {
        provider: "brave",
        apiKey: "BRAVE_API_KEY_HERE",
        maxResults: 5,
        timeoutSeconds: 30,
      },
    },
  },
}

Notes

The Data for AI plan is not compatible with web_search.
Brave provides paid plans; check the Brave API portal for current limits.
Brave Terms include restrictions on some AI-related uses of Search Results. Review the Brave Terms of Service and confirm your intended use is compliant. For legal questions, consult your counsel.

See Web tools for the full web_search configuration.
