## Problem
|
||||
|
||||
The harness needs model-facing web tools without binding the model contract to one vendor's API shape. Search is the immediate pressure point: supporting both Exa search and Perplexity search from the start — two deliberately different provider shapes (Exa returns a flat `results[]` of `{title, url, highlights, publishedDate}`; Perplexity returns a generated answer plus citations) — is what proves the normalized seam does not just mirror one vendor. Fetch is a separate capability: an anonymous public HTTP(S) fetch backend has transport, security, redirect, decoding, and size-limit concerns that are not the same as provider-backed search.

|
||||
The model-facing surface must stay stable while backends change. A search provider swap should not change how the model asks for a query, and a fetch implementation swap should not change how the model asks for a URL. Conversely, a provider package should not expose its own model-facing tool schema just because it has extra provider-specific knobs.

## Package topology
|
||||
|
||||
The three-package interface/implementation/consumer split follows bash and filesystem, but the *interface* package is closer to the LLM seam. `LlmService` (`packages/llm/llm/src/index.ts`) is a name-keyed provider registry: `registerAdapter(models, adapter)` stores adapters in a `Map`, returns a disposer, throws `DUPLICATE_ADAPTER` on duplicate keys, and throws `NO_ADAPTER` at resolution time. `ctx.web` follows that registry shape, but has two capability kinds and a richer selection policy (a configured provider id, or auto-select when exactly one usable provider is registered), so the `WebError` an execution throws can explain why a search or fetch capability cannot run.

## Testing
|
||||
|
||||
Each layer is pinned at its own seam: the registry/selection/truncation/abort contract and the `WebError` codes in `dsh-web`; per-provider request/response mapping over recorded fixtures (Perplexity fixtures include URL-only citations so the optional source fields stay honest) plus a self-skipping with-key smoke per real provider; real local-HTTP behavior in `web-fetch-local`; and enablement-driven registration, structured execution errors, and result formatting through the real tool registry in `dsh-tool-web`. A real-Loader smoke guards the two export shapes ([postmortem 0001](../../../../docs/postmortem/0001-acp-default-export-drops-inject.md)): `dsh-web` is a default-exported service, while the providers and `tool-web` are namespace plugins where a stray `export default` would drop `inject`.
