tools/news#

The spec-shaped web_news response.

Property	Type	Description	Defined in
`answer`	`string`	-	src/tools/news.ts:34
`queries_used`	`string`[]	-	src/tools/news.ts:37
`recency_verified`	`boolean`	Whether every returned source carried a publication date inside the requested window. False means the results are topical but their age is unknown, which happens on the keyless path: DuckDuckGo’s HTML endpoint does not supply dates. An agent should not describe those as “from the last N days”.	src/tools/news.ts:48
`sources`	`SearchSource`[]	-	src/tools/news.ts:35
`timeline`	`Record`<`string`, `SearchSource`[]>	-	src/tools/news.ts:36
`warnings?`	`string`[]	Providers that refused or failed, so an empty result reads correctly.	src/tools/news.ts:39
