Is there a library of good tools for LLMs to call? I have to imagine the bot-detection avoidance mechanisms are a major engineering effort and not likely to work out of the box with a simple harness and random local LLM.
Even the hosted ones are blocked from searching certain sites, for example Claude is banned from searching Reddit:
`Error: "The following domains are not accessible to our user agent: ['reddit.com']."`
Tavily, Exa, Firecrawl, Perplexity, and Linkup are all tools for agents to search the web.
I’ve been building a harness the past few months and supports them all out of the box with an API key.
If your volume is low enough, it should be pretty fine. It can just piggy back onto your personal browser cookies for Cloudflare.
