search_catalog | Search the AirShelf cross-vendor product catalog by natural-language query. The catalog covers industrial-automation, wiring-devices, digital-signage, business-display, memory-storage, mfp, barcode-printer, laser-printer, inkjet-printer, mechanical-keyboards, cybersecurity, threat-intelligence-platform. Industrial-automation and wiring-device rows are indexed by manufacturer part number, so a bran params: q*, category, limit, market, merchant, specs |
find_products | Discover candidate products for a buyer need. Takes a need in natural language (e.g. "best value home espresso machine", market "TH"), checks the verified catalog first, then uses live web discovery only when the catalog has no candidates. Returns up to 3 candidates with explicit fit accounting.
find_products is the quick candidate-list tool; research_shopping is the full verified-research job. F params: need*, market, max |
research_shopping | research_shopping is the full verified-research job; find_products is the quick candidate-list tool. It runs as a background job and returns status "running" with a research ID while the minutes-long research continues; the same research ID returns the run on later polls until completion. Unsafe medical, legal, financial-advice, and professional-service asks return status "refused" before any work params: need, market, persona, answers, research_id |
get_product | Get the full golden record (AirShelf's verified product record) and latest price for one catalog product by slug ("<manufacturer>-<model>").
Returns the product's specs and provenance (which page each fact came from), plus canonical_name (its exact catalog name). A field's evidence_sha256 is the SHA-256 of the source document AirShelf archived when it extracted that claim. A caller holding the sa params: slug* |
compare_products | Compare 2-10 catalog products side-by-side on their datasheet specs. Slugs come from search_catalog and are case-insensitive and dash-tolerant ("e-STUDIO 331AC", "toshiba-e-studio-331ac" and "e-studio331ac" all resolve to the same product).
Returns one item per product with canonical_name and spec_absence_note (spec fields absent from that product's golden record, AirShelf's verified product reco params: slugs*, provenance |
explain_product | Explain the evidence behind a catalog row. Returns stored processing stages when available and always returns a golden-record field summary with source coverage. A field's evidence_sha256 is the SHA-256 of the source document AirShelf archived when it extracted that claim. A caller holding the same bytes can compare the hash to check that the cited document has not changed. AirShelf does not serve params: slug* |
list_merchants | List public AirShelf merchants that have an assigned slug and at least one active product. Internal/demo and empty catalogs are excluded. Returns each merchant's name, slug, and product count; the slug is the `merchant` argument for request_quote. params: none |
request_quote | Send a quote request for catalog products to a merchant's sales team on behalf of a named buyer.
This is a two-step, double opt-in flow. The first call emails a confirmation link to `contact.email` and returns status "confirmation_required"; no lead exists and no merchant is contacted until the buyer confirms. A later call with the same arguments reports "awaiting_confirmation" while the email is params: merchant*, products, quantity, contact*, notes, reference, brandSlug |
Entries describe changes in tool definitions. They are not statements about a server, its quality or its author. The grade measures how the tool definitions fit model providers (token cost, schema compatibility, confusable names) as scored by the ToolFit engine at the time of the listing. JSON: append .json.
