AWS's worked example, 200,000 queries and 400,000 other tool calls a month, totals $1,403.00. There is no minimum and no Web Search allowance. At the published 10 requests a second (adjustable), a gateway could spend about $252 an hour. Whether failed or throttled calls are billed wasn't found.

The 200-character limit on `query`, the 1 to 25 range of `maxResults` and the ISO-8601 date format sit in descriptions, not in `maxLength`, `minimum` or `format`. No error responses for the tool are documented, and the `tools/list` output was not read. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 17 October 2026.

The index of tens of billions of documents, updated within minutes, is AWS's description, not something we checked. Results cap at 25 with no pagination, country or language control and no full page text. Domain and date filters work only on connector 1.2.0, while 1.1.0 remains the default.

Inbound auth on the owner's gateway is OAuth JWT with allowed scopes or IAM SigV4 on one gateway ARN, and the owner's domain lists cannot be relaxed by the agent. Results are third-party page text, and the Web Search pages give no prompt-injection guidance. Gateway guardrail policies exist but are documented in general. A no-authorisation gateway mode exists, and query retention is unchecked. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 17 October 2026.

It runs as a connector on an AgentCore Gateway and is called as an MCP tool.
