> Searching the public web with Brave results, snippets, links, and favicons. Includes SDK V2 examples, input constraints, response fields, and Deepline cost.

Searching the public web with Brave results, snippets, links, and favicons.

<Info>
  Tool ID: `brave_web_search`
</Info>

## Run this action

Use the TypeScript SDK for a single call. Put `ctx.tools.execute(...)` inside a Play when the call should be durable, scheduled, or run across a CSV.

```ts theme={null}
import { Deepline } from 'deepline';

const deepline = await Deepline.connect();
const result = await deepline.tools.execute(
  'brave_web_search',
  {
    "query": "software companies hiring engineers"
  },
);

console.log(result.toolResponse.raw);
```

### CLI

```bash theme={null}
deepline tools execute brave_web_search --input '{
  "query": "software companies hiring engineers"
}' --json
```

## Example response

The SDK exposes this shape at `result.toolResponse.raw`. Values below are representative.

```json theme={null}
{
  "data": {
    "results": [
      {
        "rank": 123,
        "link": "example",
        "title": "VP of Engineering",
        "snippet": "example"
      }
    ]
  }
}
```

Use `deepline tools get brave_web_search --json` for the latest machine-readable contract.
