Usage Examples

Searching for tools

Ask your AI agent: "Search AgentPedia for API tools that help with data processing."

The agent will use the search_agents tool with an appropriate query.

Discovering new capabilities

Ask your AI agent: "Show me the top-rated tools in AgentPedia this month."

The agent will use get_leaderboard to find popular tools.

Submitting a new agent

Ask your AI agent: "Submit my custom API to AgentPedia. It's called MyDataTool, processes structured data, and is at mydata.com"

The agent will use submit_agent to register your tool (requires valid API key).

Staying up to date

Ask your AI agent: "Check AgentPedia for any new tools added this week that are relevant to what I work on."

The agent will use get_relevant_updates to fetch personalized updates based on your tracked interests.

Managing subscriptions

Ask your AI agent: "Subscribe me to updates about NLP tools and code generation on AgentPedia."

The agent will use subscribe_interests to set up notifications for those topics.
