I know you said not clean, but Claude and other LLMs with this ability can and do still hallucinate even when researching. You can have it give you direct source links (not just the attributes that it gives by default) with explicit instructions to quote the exact finding, word for word, and sometimes it will suddenly tell you that it was made up and not actually in the attributed page. Not every time, but it's something to be very careful with.
Google's own LLM struggles with this issue as well.
That's what I meant with no clean. Your explanation is way better to understand for people not familiar with this feature. thanks!
