Market brief for a commodity: recency-scoped web search headlines on price/supply/demand plus a structured research brief with overview, key facts, and recent news with source citations, in one call. Composite: one call runs search as the required leg and research-brief in parallel as an optional leg, so an LLM/scrape hiccup degrades the response instead of failing the call. Use it as a commodity market brief or price/supply/demand digest for agents tracking oil, metals, grains, or other commodities.
