Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are limited by static knowledge and insufficient fine-grained visual analysis, hindering their performance on knowledge-intensive and visually complex tasks. While recent research has explored VLMs that employ external tools like search or cropping to enhance model performance, they typically employ tools in isolation and lack the ability to coordinate multiple tools effectively. To address this gap, we propose SenseSearch, the first agentic VLM for search-reasoning that supports adaptive multi-tool coordination via reinforcement learning (RL). Specifically, SenseSearch dynamically integrates the image search, text search, and image crop tools to tackle fine-grained and knowledge-intensive visual understanding challenges. We first construct a high-quality cold-start dataset to instill basic tool-usage behaviors. In the subsequent RL stage, we introduce Batch-Normalized Group Sequence Policy Optimization (BN-GSPO) algorithm to enhance the tool invocation and reasoning ability. To comprehensively evaluate the agentic VLMs on complex visual tasks, we introduce the HR-MMSearch benchmark, the first search-oriented benchmark composed of high-resolution images with knowledge-intensive and search-driven questions. Experiments demonstrate that SenseSearch achieves state-of-the-art performance on open-source search and fine-grained image understanding benchmarks, outperforming baselines by 19.18% on HR-MMSearch. SenseSearch provides a promising path toward agentic VLMs with effective and robust tool invocation capabilities. All code and data are released at https://github.com/OpenSenseNova/SenseNova-MARS.
