Platforms count differently and update at different times.
Run Gemini CLI in a TTY and set a long timeout; the command entry point is ~/.npm-global/bin/gemini -p. Queries should include the entity, code/name, time window, and requested information. Results must include key numeric facts, catalyst bullets, and links. Prefer company IR/SEC filings and reliable outlets, and cross-check with at least 2 independent trustworthy sources. If sources conflict or a claim seems suspicious, explain the issue and verify with the user or rerun with a stricter prompt.

--- name: gemini-web-search description: Use Gemini CLI (@google/gemini-cli) to do web search / fact-finding and return a sourced summary. Use when the user asks “why did X happen today”, “what’s the latest news”, “search the web”, “find sources/links”, or any task requiring up-to-date info. Prefer this over other search tools when Gemini is available but slow; run it with a TTY, wait longer, and verify source quality. --- # Gemini Web Search Use Gemini CLI to search the web and produce a concise, sourced answer. ## Quick workflow
1) **Formulate a tight query** - Include: entity + ticker/name + date/time window + what you need (%, $, cause, quotes, links) - Example: `PayPal (PYPL) fell Feb 4 2026: % change, $ change, main catalyst(s), 3 sources` 2) **Run Gemini CLI with a TTY and long timeout** Gemini CLI can hang or be slow without a pseudo-TTY. Preferred (OpenClaw tool call): - Use `functions.exec` with `pty: true` - Use `timeout` 300–600s (longer for heavy searches) - Use `yieldMs` ~10000 then `process.poll` until completion Command template: - `~/.npm-global/bin/gemini -p "<prompt>"` If `pty:true` still behaves poorly, use a pseudo-tty wrapper: - `script -q -c "~/.npm-global/bin/gemini -p \"<prompt>\"" /dev/null` 3) **Extract the answer in a structured way** Return: - The key numeric facts (e.g., % move, $ move, close/intraday) - 2–4 bullets of the main catalyst(s) - **Links** (always) 4) **Quality control (mandatory)** - Prefer: company IR/SEC filing, Reuters, Bloomberg, WSJ/FT, CNBC, reputable outlets. - Avoid relying on low-quality finance blogs/SEO sites. - If sources conflict or look unreliable: say so and ask user for a screenshot/link, or re-run with a stricter prompt. ## Prompts that work well - **Fast triage**: `Search the web: <topic>. Give 3 bullets + 2 reputable links.` - **Market move**: `Search the web: Why did <TICKER> move today (<date>)? Provide exact % and $ move (close + intraday if available) and the main catalyst(s). Cite sources with links.` - **Force better sources**: `Search the web and prioritize Reuters/company IR/SEC filing. If you cannot find them, say so. Topic: <...>. Provide links.` ## Failure modes & fixes - **Gemini prints “I will search…” then stalls** - Wait longer (it can be slow). - Ensure TTY: run with `pty:true` or `script -q -c ... /dev/null`. - **Output has suspicious claims (e.g., odd CEO news)** - Re-run with: “use Reuters/company IR/SEC filing only; otherwise say unknown”. - Cross-check with at least 2 independent reputable sources. - **Need numbers but sources don’t show them** - Ask user for the quote/screenshot from their market data app and reconcile. ## Local setup notes - Gemini CLI binary: `~/.npm-global/bin/gemini` - Auth: already completed by Jiajie (should work without re-login)
