get_listing

One live listing of the directory, by the id that search_listings or shortlist returned.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
id*	string

}

list_categories

The active categories of the directory, with the slug that the other tools accept.

read-only

No arguments.

Input schema (JSON)

{

  "$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",
  "properties": {}
}

search_listings

The live listings in the categories, plus the listings whose text contains the words of the need. Each listing has the TypeSafe score when one is already cached for this need, and it scores no listing. Without categories, the tool finds the category of the need first (one AI call). When the need fits more than one category, it returns `choices`: call again with one or two of them. Pass the returned `categories` to shortlist, so that it does not find the category again.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
need*	string	What the person needs from a SaaS product, in plain words. For example: track the visits to my website.
categories	array	One or two category slugs from list_categories. Leave it out to let the tool find the category of the need.

      "maxItems": 2,
      "description": "One or two category slugs from list_categories. Leave it out to let the tool find the category of the need."
    }
  }
}

shortlist

The SaaS products that fit the need, best first, scored by TypeSafe (fitPct 0 to 100). Each call scores at most 8 new listings. When `remaining` is more than 0, call again with the same need and categories to score the next ones. Without categories, the tool finds the category of the need first. When the need fits more than one category, it returns `choices`: call again with one or two of them.
