Expand Steps taken
Click Steps taken to open the timeline of everything the agent did for that answer.
Read the trail
Each step names one move, in the order it happened:- Searched the web, with the query shown beneath it
- Read a page, naming the site once it resolves
- Scanned a site, mapping it before a crawl
- Crawled a site across more than one page
- Used a tool, naming which one and its arguments
- Finished, once it has enough to answer
See why it answered that way
A muted line above some steps is the model’s own reasoning for the move that follows, folded to one line until you click it. Below the whole trail, Reasoning explains why the value in the cell is the answer.Good to know

What does Answered without researching mean?

What happens if the agent tries more than once on a row?
What happens if the agent tries more than once on a row?
Each retry gets its own attempt heading above its trail, so you can tell which steps belong to which try.
