local-place-search returns POI IDs directly. They also come from the Web Search API (web-search) with result_filter=locations:
# 1. Search for local businesses

-H "Accept: application/json" \
-H "X-Subscription-Token: ${BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY}"
# 2. Extract POI IDs from locations.results[].id
# 3. Use those IDs with local/pois and local/descriptions
local-pois to get both structured data (hours, ratings) and narrative descriptions### headings, bullet lists, bold/italics — always formatted as markdowndescription may be null还没有评价。欢迎分享你的使用感受。

USE FOR finding places in the physical world - businesses, POIs, street addresses, cities and streets. Results carry address, coordinates, rating, opening hours and phone, so basic details need no follow-up call. Standalone - no POI IDs or prior web search required; the IDs it returns work with local-pois and local-descriptions. Locate by coordinates or a location string, or omit both to search globally. Omit the query to browse an area. Max 100 results.
