What it does, and the prose the agent is handed when the graph runs.

action30 words

Run the strand's query against public search, fetch the pages worth reading, and return each one as a passage stamped with its source URL and the time it was retrieved.

spec147 words

Run the web strand of the retrieval plan you are given on query: issue its search terms with its site filters applied, keep the top eight results, and fetch each of those pages, following redirects. Emit one record per page you actually retrieved on passages, carrying the extracted body text, the final URL after redirects, the ISO-8601 timestamp of the fetch, and the rank the result held in the search listing. Give up on any single fetch that has not answered within twenty seconds and move to the next result rather than retrying it. Do not summarise, rank for truth, or drop a page because you disbelieve it, hand back what was served, so that whatever reads these passages can still tell retrieved text from established fact. You are done when every result you were able to fetch has a record, or the eight-result budget is exhausted.in full above

notes78 words

This is the only node on the line that reaches outside the process, and nothing vets what it pulls back before the synthesizer reads it, the fact-checker sits after synthesis, not between the fetch and its consumer. Treat the passages as claims about the world rather than facts until the verifier has cited them. The marker for that is deliberately not declared here: doc 3 §4.1 infers unvalidated-external-access from the graph, and declaring it would second-guess the analyzer.
