Highlights

The model can now search the web. When an answer depends on something newer than its training data, such as the latest version of a library, a changed API, an error message or current documentation, lcode searches and reads pages by itself, then tells you which URLs it used.

  • web_search works with Ollama web search (free key with an Ollama account), Brave Search, Tavily or your own SearXNG.
  • web_fetch reads any page as clean text, with no key needed.
  • On by default. Use lcode config set web ask to approve each search, or web off / --no-web to keep everything local. See Web search for setup and exactly what leaves your machine.

Added

  • Web access for the model: web_search finds current information (latest releases, docs, error
    messages) through Ollama web search, Brave Search, Tavily or a self-hosted SearXNG, and web_fetch
    reads pages as clean text. On by default; lcode config set web ask|off or lcode --no-web limits
    it. Search API keys are read from environment variables only. Closes #7.
