The setting guides the AI but does not technically block a page request. - Added answers that appear word by word even while the AI uses its tools. You read along as the model writes, including the short note it puts down before it looks something up, and the answer that follows a tool call arrives the same way instead of all at once at the end. - Added safeguards around everything these tools bring back. Anything fetched from the web is treated as untrusted: AI Studio removes instructions hidden in a page before a model reads it and tells you when it did, exactly as it already does for the documents and web pages you load yourself. A model can never point a tool at your own network. Each tool states how much you have to trust a provider before it may be used with it, so your questions do not travel further than you allow. You can adjust that requirement per tool in the app settings. - Added tools to the assistants. Each assistant has its own tool settings: which tools it starts with and whether you get to change them while you work.

An allowed private host can only be read by a High-confidence provider or a provider instance listed in `DataSourceSecuritySettings.TrustedProviderIds`. +The global `read_web_page.braveMode` setting is `OFF` by default. With `OFF`, the per-request tool instruction tells the model to use only URLs explicitly present in the system prompt, user prompt, or a tool result. URLs in documents and RAG content loaded into the user prompt qualify, as do URLs returned by `web_search` and links returned by an earlier page read. If there is no URL and `read_web_page` is the only web tool, the model is told to ask the user for one. With `ON`, the model may choose a URL itself. Both instructions treat retrieved content as untrusted. This is prompt guidance, not a technical URL provenance check; the application still applies its network target restrictions. The setting uses the usual locked organization value, saved user value, then organization default precedence. + Every successfully retrieved page with readable content is also returned as a structured tool source, using the final URL after redirects and the extracted page title. The provider collects these sources across local tool calls and attaches them to the final response under the separate “Sources used by tools” heading. Failed, blocked, empty, and duplicate retrievals do not add sources — a pattern worth copying for any tool that returns material the user may want to check. ## Checklist
