Move web search into a sub-agent tool#136

PrismPHP's Anthropic provider returns 400 errors when an agent mixes custom tools with provider tools (like WebSearch) across multi-turn conversations. Extract WebSearch into MediaWebSearchAgentTool — a custom tool whose handle() spawns a sub-agent with WebSearch as its only tool — so the orchestrator only owns custom tools. Mirrors the existing MediaWritingAgentTool pattern. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Previously the orchestrator was told to "always" call MediaWebSearchAgentTool before responding, which caused needless web searches when David referred to media already in his library (e.g. logging a finished event on something currently being read). Reframe the guidance around the tool's purpose — identifying unknown media — so the orchestrator can skip it when SearchMedia alone is sufficient.

Documents the PrismPHP/Anthropic 400-error bug that motivates wrapping WebSearch inside MediaWebSearchAgentTool instead of exposing it directly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
