web When no corpus has it.
One verb — ask — over the open web, answered from cached page bodies with the URLs attached and marked as a web answer.

What it answers
Ask anything
No search, no read: one call, an answer, and the pages it came from.
See what was read
Pages read in full are marked as such, so a claim can be traced.
A safety net
When /v1/ask routes a question and no domain holds the answer, it lands here — never silently.
Three calls
Straight from the gateway’s own self-description — these are the calls it suggests first.
Ask the web
POST /v1/web/ask {"query": "…", "effort": "low"} What it will not do
The open web is not a primary source: a page can be wrong, paywalled or gone. Use it to find the source, then quote the source.
