🏗️ Architecture: Multi-Stage Orchestration

OpenClaw Search employs a Two-Phase Retrieval Strategy for comprehensive results:

Phase 1: Discovery (Parallel Retrieval)

Query 4 distinct search streams simultaneously:

• Scholar: Deep academic retrieval
• Web: Structured web search
• Smart: Intelligent mixed-mode search
• Tavily: External validation signal

Phase 2: Reasoning (Meta-Analysis)

Use AIsa Explain to perform meta-analysis on search results, generating:

• Confidence scores (0-100)
• Source agreement analysis
• Synthesized answers

Search Parameters

🚀 Building a Verity-Style Agent

Want to build your own confidence-scored search agent? Here's the pattern:

1. Parallel Discovery

import asyncio

async def discover(query):
    """Phase 1: Parallel retrieval from multiple sources."""
    tasks = [
        search_scholar(query),
        search_web(query),
        search_smart(query),
        search_tavily(query)
    ]
    results = await asyncio.gather(*tasks)
    return {
        "scholar": results[0],
        "web": results[1],
        "smart": results[2],
        "tavily": results[3]
    }

2. Confidence Scoring

def score_confidence(results):
    """Calculate deterministic confidence score."""
    score = 0
    
    # Source quality (40%)
    if results["scholar"]:
        score += 40 * len(results["scholar"]) / 10
    
    # Agreement analysis (35%)
    claims = extract_claims(results)
    agreement = analyze_agreement(claims)
    score += 35 * agreement
    
    # Recency (15%)
    recency = calculate_recency(results)
    score += 15 * recency
    
    # Relevance (10%)
    relevance = calculate_relevance(results, query)
    score += 10 * relevance
    
    return min(100, score)

3. Synthesis

async def synthesize(query, results, score):
    """Generate final answer with citations."""
    explanation = await explain_results(results)
    return {
        "answer": explanation["summary"],
        "confidence": score,
        "sources": explanation["citations"],
        "claims": explanation["claims"]
    }
