get_install Read-only

Get the one line that installs UGT on the user's Windows PC, Mac or Linux computer and connects it to their AI apps, UGT for Claude Desktop, and what each computer runs recipes in. Omit the computer to get every one.

get_project

Get how UGT runs one GitHub project, by owner/repo or its link: the recipes people have shared for it, each verified for one job. Every GitHub project works with UGT, so the result always says what to do next.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
project*	string	The GitHub project as owner/repo, such as openai/whisper, or its GitHub link.

Input schema (JSON)

{

    }
  },

read_recipe_file

Read one of a recipe's files, such as compose.yaml, its Dockerfile or recipe.json, to see exactly what it runs.

    }
  },
  "additionalProperties": false
}

search_recipes

Find how UGT gets a job done on the user's own computer with open-source software from GitHub, such as subtitles, CAD, video or web pages to Markdown. Search by what the user wants done or by a project's name, or omit the query to list the newest recipes. A recipe is a verified way to get one project doing one job, shared so the next person gets it fast.

query	string	What the user wants done, or a project's name. Omit to list the newest recipes.
