How to do web-searching tool node properly

Hi, I want to use web-searching tool node in my ai agent, I tried using Tavily as my web-searching tool. In my understanding I tell the AI agent to do web-searching about certain topic let’s say about “crypto” then the AI agent will use the tavily to do web-searching.

Now here’s where I don’t understand, if I already tell the AI agent to search topic about crypto, why there’s a query text box in tavily node? I’ve found every tool node for web-searching always have this text box, doesn’t it feels redundant by doing it twice?

Note: tavily node setting where there’s query text box

*Simple workflow

It makes sense!
The first time, you’re talking to the AI Agent and telling it: search for this, then the agent takes your question and goes to the tool, sending it through a query..

And don’t forget to click on this icon so the agent can generate the query on its own.

Let me make sure, according to what you told me, I don’t really need to add anything to it and just click the icon and the agent will create the query of it own, is this correct?

Yes!
Test it yourself to better understand what’s going on..

Ok thanks for your help
