Install Can Agents Use for your agent.
Give agents a clean read-only way to discover tool readiness without database access. Use MCP when your client supports remote HTTP tools, or install the skill through skills.sh as persistent instructions.
MCP tools
Search and fetch catalog records with JSON-RPC tool calls.
skills.sh skill
A portable SKILL.md with searchable metadata, endpoints, and guardrails.
JSON + OpenAPI
Stable HTTP endpoints for agents that prefer direct API reads.
Install as MCP
Use this when your agent client supports remote HTTP MCP-style servers.
{
"mcpServers": {
"canagentsuse": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://canagentsuse.com/api/mcp"
}
}
}Add this server config in your client MCP settings, then run the smoke test below.
Install with skills.sh
Use this when your agent supports portable skills or project instructions.
npx skills add phuctm97/canagentsuse --skill can-agents-use
# Manual fallback
mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills/can-agents-use
curl -fsSL https://canagentsuse.com/skill.md -o ~/.codex/skills/can-agents-use/SKILL.mdOfficial command: npx skills add phuctm97/canagentsuse --skill can-agents-use. Agents can also fetch /skill.md directly as a fallback.
MCP smoke test
This confirms that tool discovery is reachable.
curl -fsS -X POST https://canagentsuse.com/api/mcp \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list","params":{}}'1. Discover
Call search_agent_tools or /api/agent/search with page 1 and limit 10 for a query like billing, scraping, stripe, MCP, or browser.
2. Inspect
Fetch /api/agent/tools/{slug} to read evidence, support level, pricing, auth, and caution fields.
3. Verify
Follow evidence URLs to official docs before live money, production data, or account changes.
Safe access
Agents should use MCP, JSON, OpenAPI, or Markdown surfaces. The database is private persistence, not an agent integration contract.
Bulk reads
Use MCP get_agent_catalog, canagentsuse://catalog, /api/agent/catalog, or /llms-full.txt once per session when comparing many tools.
Request limits
Search returns 10 tools per page by default and maxes at 50. Request the next page only when hasMore is true.
