# Brave Search Integration

Equip your KiloClaw agent with real-time web browsing capabilities by integrating the Brave Search API. This allows the agent to fetch up-to-date information, perform market research, and verify facts beyond its training data.

## How to Generate a Brave Search API Key

To get started, you will need to obtain a "BSA" (Brave Search API) key from the Brave developer portal.

### 1. Access the Brave Search Dashboard

Go to [api.search.brave.com](https://api.search.brave.com) and sign in or create a developer account.

### 2. Choose a Subscription Plan

Brave Search API requires a paid subscription. Select the plan that fits your usage volume.

### 3. Create an API Key

Once your account is active, navigate to the **API Keys** section and click **"Create New Key."**

### 4. Copy the Key

Your key will typically begin with the prefix `BSA`. Copy this key immediately, as it may not be displayed again for security reasons.
