Responses search
Use the same OpenAI client as the quickstart:web_search, web_search_preview, web_search_2025_08_26, and web_search_preview_2025_03_11. tool_choice can be auto, required, none, or { "type": "web_search" }. Domain values contain a hostname, without a URL scheme.
Streaming Responses can contain web_search_call output items alongside text events. Reconcile items by ID; do not append the final response’s text to text already displayed from deltas. Handle terminal errors and incomplete responses.
Chat search
Chat uses a top-levelweb_search_options object:
web_search_options with a non-empty tools array. Read any returned citation annotations when presenting sources.
Messages search and fetch
Messages accepts native hosted tool definitions:filters.allowed_domains. Hosted results can contain server_tool_use, web_search_tool_result, and web_fetch_tool_result blocks. These are not requests for your application to execute a function. The current backend may reject replayed hosted tool blocks; retain supported conversational content when constructing another turn.
Limitless currently charges the reported model tokens at your configured rates. It does not add a separate search or fetch fee. Search results can increase token usage. This release does not expose per-project web-domain settings in its administration API.
