Summary
The follow-up call is a page fetch rather than a second search, and the tools say so.
baidu_search is meant to be called once per question instead of repeatedly with reworded keywords, and it points at the URL fetch when the results are thin. That guidance is about time as much as quality — searching is described as slow, and fetching a page adds to the response time again. Titles, summaries and links arrive together, which is usually enough to decide whether the second call is worth making.
What it is
A two-tool Baidu client: a search that returns a result list, and a fetch that returns one page's content.
What you get
- Baidu results as titles, summaries and links, which is the coverage that suits Chinese-language questions.
- The content of a single page by URL, for the cases where a summary does not settle the question.
Requirements
Nothing — no account, no key.
Setup effort
One command plus a key — npx -y baidu-search-mcp, then supply credentials
