Agentic Copilot User Guide

1. Keyword Search

• What It Does: Extracts and focuses on important keywords in your query to provide targeted search results.
• How to Use: When entering your query, use specific keywords that best describe what you're searching for. Avoid common words such as "the," "about," and "is." For example, type "JavaScript async functions" instead of "Tell me about async functions in JavaScript."
• Pro Tip: Use short and specific phrases to narrow down search results effectively.

2. Site-Specific Search

• What It Does: Focuses your search on a specific website or source.
• How to Use: Include the website or repository name in your input when you want to target a particular source. For example, "Search GitHub for async JavaScript documentation" will focus the search on GitHub.
• Pro Tip: Use this when looking for official documentation or information from a trusted source.

3. Set Language Preferences

• What It Does: Filters results based on your preferred language.
• How to Use: In your query, specify the language you wish to use, such as "lang:en" for English. This will limit search results to content in that language.
• Pro Tip: Use this when you need language-specific resources or documentation.

4. Cache Control

• What It Does: Bypasses cached content to retrieve the most current information.
• How to Use: If you are looking for the latest information, use keywords like "recent" or "latest" in your query. This will signal the system to bypass cached content and provide fresh results.
• Pro Tip: Ideal for searching for news, updates, or evolving best practices.

5. Proxy URL

• What It Does: Accesses content that may be restricted to specific networks.
• How to Use: If prompted that content is restricted, confirm the use of a proxy as suggested by the system to access the desired information.
• Pro Tip: Mention network restrictions in your query if you suspect content is behind a firewall or restricted access.

6. Return Format

• What It Does: Allows you to choose how the search results are formatted (e.g., markdown, plain text).
• How to Use: Include a request for the format in your query. For instance, "Provide results in markdown format" will format the output accordingly.
• Pro Tip: Use markdown for structured outputs, especially if you want to include code snippets or tables in the results.

7. Using Cookies for Session Management

• What It Does: Manages session-based content that requires login or authenticated access.
• How to Use: If your query involves accessing content behind a login, simply state this in your request. The system will manage the necessary session cookies.
• Pro Tip: Useful when looking for personalized content or information from services requiring authentication.

Example Scenarios

• Help Command: Enter "help" or "guide" to receive a detailed list of options. The system will present sections you can explore, such as keyword search, cache control, and more.
• Specific Documentation: To find documentation on a coding topic, type "documentation on async JavaScript functions." The system will search the web using this context and format the output as requested.
• Up-to-Date Information: If you need the latest information or news, include "latest" in your query, and the system will bypass cached results to fetch current data.
