Give your Laravel AI agent real-time web knowledge

One of the best things about the Laravel AI SDK is that it doesn't lock you into a provider. Swap OpenAI for Anthropic, add Gemini as a failover, and your agent code barely changes. That's the entire pitch, and it mostly holds up. Until your agent needs to browse the web. The provider-agnostic promise has a hole in it The SDK ships two provider tools for giving agents access to the web: WebSearch and WebFetch. They're convenient, a couple lines and your agent can search or fetch a page. But they're not really part of the SDK's unified layer, they're implemented natively by whichever AI provider you're using, which means their availability depends entirely on which model you picked. WebSearch works on Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, and OpenRouter. WebFetch only works on Anthropic and Gemini. So if you configure a failover chain that includes Groq, DeepSeek, Mistral, or xAI, and one of those becomes the active provider, your agent quietly loses the ability to browse. Not an err
