  • search_engines

    Find the right ReefAPI engine for a task — pass ENGLISH keywords or a short natural-language use-case ("detect a website's tech stack", "company reviews", "check a package for vulnerabilities", "is this domain available"). The catalog is in English: if the end-user asked in anot…

  • get_engine_schema

    COMPACT overview of ONE engine: every action with its description, required params and what it returns — but NOT the full param detail (kept lean so a 90-action engine stays token-cheap). Call this after search_engines to pick the right ACTION, then get_action_schema(engine, act…

  • get_action_schema

    FULL detail for ONE engine action: every parameter (type, required, description, allowed_values dropdown, default, example, min/max), what it returns, pricing, and a ready-to-run example_params. Call this right before call_engine so you send valid params — invalid enum values ar…

  • get_catalog

    The FULL ReefAPI catalog — EVERY engine with its one-line title, grouped by category. This is the whole menu (≈ a few thousand tokens); SCAN IT AND PICK THE BEST ENGINE YOURSELF. You are an LLM, so you match the user's intent semantically — across ANY language, typo, or phrasing…
