Missing required parameter: query

Error message

Missing required parameter: query

What it means

Argument-validation guard in WebSearchTool::execute_with_options: the args lack a "query" key or hold a non-string value (whitespace-only strings pass here and are rejected by the next empty-query check). The unified web-search entry point cannot route a search without a query, so it fails before any provider dispatch. Generic guard; the faulting input is a missing or non-string query.

Solutions

1. Call the web search tool with a non-empty string "query" argument.
2. Verify upstream code that builds the query produces a string.
3. Trim user input and re-prompt when the field is omitted.
