Web Search Provider ABC
=======================
Defines the pluggable-backend interface for web search and content extraction.
Providers register instances via ``PluginContext.register_web_search_provider()``;
the active one (selected via ``web.search_backend`` / ``web.extract_backend`` /
``web.backend`` in ``config.yaml``) services every ``web_search`` /
``web_extract`` tool call.
Providers live in ``<repo>/plugins/web/<name>/`` (built-in, auto-loaded as
``kind: backend``) or ``~/.hermes/plugins/web/<name>/`` (user, opt-in via
``plugins.enabled``).
refactor(web): delete legacy tools/web_providers/ directory + migrate ABC tests Removes the legacy in-tree provider scaffolding that PR #25182 fully replaced with the plugin architecture: tools/web_providers/__init__.py (6 lines) tools/web_providers/base.py (89 lines — old ABCs) tools/web_providers/ARCHITECTURE.md (73 lines — old design doc) These were the staging-ground ABCs and provider modules that the plugin migration absorbed. All seven web providers now implement the single :class:`agent.web_search_provider.WebSearchProvider` ABC and live under ``plugins/web/<vendor>/``. Nothing else in the tree imports ``tools.web_providers`` — verified via grep before deletion. Test migration (tests/tools/test_web_providers.py) -------------------------------------------------- Rewrote ``TestWebProviderABCs`` to test the new unified ABC at :mod:`agent.web_search_provider`: - test_cannot_instantiate_abc_directly — abstract ``name`` + ``is_available`` - test_concrete_search_only_provider_works — exercise default ``supports_extract=False`` / ``supports_crawl=False`` flags - test_concrete_multi_capability_provider_works — exercise all three capabilities, async extract supported (declared sync here for simplicity; real plugins like parallel + firecrawl use async) - test_search_only_provider_skips_extract_and_crawl — verify ``supports_*()`` flags default to False so search-only providers don't have to implement extract() or crawl() The 9 other tests in the file (per-capability backend selection, DEFAULT_CONFIG merge, dispatcher routing) test public helpers in ``tools.web_tools`` that still exist and pass unchanged. agent/web_search_provider.py docstring updated to reflect that the legacy ABCs no longer exist; the response-shape contract is preserved bit-for-bit so external consumers see no behavioral change. Net diff -------- - tools/web_providers/ removed (-168 lines) - tests/tools/test_web_providers.py rewritten ABC section (+78/-30 net, same coverage, new API) - agent/web_search_provider.py docstring (-3/+5 lines) Verified -------- - 173/173 targeted web tests pass - 12/12 ABC contract tests pass with the new interface - No remaining grep hits for ``tools.web_providers`` outside of intentional historical references in plugin docstrings.

This ABC is the SINGLE plugin-facing surface for web providers every
provider in the tree (brave-free, ddgs, searxng, exa, parallel, tavily,
firecrawl) implements it. The legacy in-tree ``tools.web_providers.base``
ABCs were deleted in PR #25182 along with the per-vendor inline helpers
in ``tools/web_tools.py``; the response-shape contract documented below
is preserved bit-for-bit so the tool wrapper does not have to translate.
Response shape (preserved from the legacy contract):
Search results::
{
"success": True,
"data": {
"web": [
{"title": str, "url": str, "description": str, "position": int},
...
]
}
}
Extract results::
{
"success": True,
"data": [
{"url": str, "title": str, "content": str,
"raw_content": str, "metadata": dict},
...
]
}
On failure (either capability)::
{"success": False, "error": str}

chore(web): remove web_crawl tool + provider crawl plumbing (#33824) The web_crawl_tool() function was an orphan — no model schema registered it, no skill or CLI command called it, and the agent had no way to invoke it. PR #32608 proposed wiring it up as a model-callable tool; we've decided not to expose crawl as a separate capability since web_search + web_extract cover the use cases we want models to have. Removed: - tools/web_tools.py: web_crawl_tool() (~230 LOC) - plugins/web/firecrawl/provider.py: supports_crawl() + crawl() - plugins/web/tavily/provider.py: supports_crawl() + crawl() - plugins/web/xai/provider.py: supports_crawl() override - agent/web_search_provider.py: supports_crawl() + crawl() ABC methods - agent/web_search_registry.py: get_active_crawl_provider() + the 'crawl' branch in _resolve() - agent/display.py: web_crawl tool-progress rendering - hermes_cli/config.py: 'web_crawl' from TAVILY_API_KEY.tools - tools/website_policy.py: stale comment reference - Tests: removed TestWebCrawlTavily class, the two website-policy web_crawl tests, the searxng/ddgs/brave-free crawl-error tests, the integration test_web_crawl method, and the test_unconfigured_crawl_emits_top_level_error test. Trimmed the capability-flag parametrize list and the WebSearchProvider ABC conformance tests. - Docs: trimmed the Crawl column from capability tables in both EN and zh-Hans, updated the developer-guide ABC table. Net: 25 files, +115/-1067. Closes #33762 (the schema-text bug only existed if #32608 landed). Supersedes #32608.
