You're late to the party, mate; we've been doing this for years. Grab a SearXNG instance, stand up an MCP server for it, and expose the tool into your system prompt. Or use Brave Search. Or Exa if you want to pay. Any of them work. The model will pick it up straight away.

Even llama.cpp's bundled web UI handles it fine. Dead simple.

Which MCP server do you use?

Searxng is the ghetto solution. Commercial uruky is good. Basically Kagi except you can also run api calls over it

Neither is going to return much knowledge. Basically just relevant url so you need a second tool to grab them and there bot walls get tricky

Working fine with LM Studio + Web search plugin
