Web access capabilities enable Kiro agent to access current information from the internet in real-time. This feature enables you to get up-to-date answers about topics that may have changed since the model's training data was created. These tools have been designed to not reproduce meaningful chunks of text and it should not be able to access webpages behind paywalls, authentication, and similar access restrictions. Search results may vary over time as internet content changes. Some content may not be accessible through web search due to various restrictions or the nature of the content.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
web_search | Tool for searching the web |
web_fetch | Tool for fetching content from a URL |
In the following demo, the agent automatically uses the web_search tool to search the web and return up-to-date results for a query, instead of relying on possibly outdated information in the model's training data. It then uses the web_fetch tool to retrieve the latest contents at a specific URL.
