About

Z.ai Web Search & Reader

Provides web search and web page content extraction through z.ai's remote MCP servers. Uses the API key from ~/.pi/agent/auth.json (zai entry).

> Note: Requires an active z.ai Coding Plan subscription with available monthly quota. Search and reader share the same quota.

Search the Web

./scripts/search.sh "search query"

Parameters (positional):

  1. query (required) — Search text, max ~70 characters recommended
  2. location — us (default, non-Chinese region) or cn (Chinese region)
  3. content_size — medium (default, 400-600 words per result) or high (2500 words, higher cost)
  4. recency_filter — noLimit (default), oneDay, oneWeek, oneMonth, oneYear
  5. domain_filter — Limit to a specific domain, e.g. docs.python.org

Examples:

# Basic search
./scripts/search.sh "latest TypeScript 5.8 features"

# Recent news (last week), with longer summaries
./scripts/search.sh "React 19 release notes" us high oneWeek

# Domain-scoped search
./scripts/search.sh "Array.prototype.at" us medium noLimit developer.mozilla.org

Output: JSON array of results with title, URL, summary, site name, and icon. Returns [] if quota is exhausted or no results found.

Read a Web Page

./scripts/reader.sh "https://example.com"

Parameters (positional):

  1. url (required) — URL to fetch and read
  2. format — markdown (default) or text
  3. retain_images — true (default) or false
  4. timeout — Seconds, default 20

Examples:

# Read page as markdown
./scripts/reader.sh "https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.12.html"

# Plain text, no images
./scripts/reader.sh "https://example.com" text false

Output: Page content converted to the requested format (markdown/text).

Troubleshooting

  • Empty results ([]) — Likely monthly quota exhausted. Check your z.ai Coding Plan dashboard.
  • Auth error — Verify the zai key in ~/.pi/agent/auth.json is valid and not expired.
  • Override auth file — Set ZAI_AUTH_FILE env var to point to a different auth file.
