## Server URL

All MCP tools are available at:

```
https://mcp.useagents.site/mcp
```

Connect your agent to this URL with an API key in the `x-api-key` header. See [Authentication](/content/docs/mcp/tools-reference/authentication/index.html) for setup.

## Response format

MCP tools return data in **Toon** (Token-Oriented Object Notation), a compact, token-efficient format designed for LLM consumption. Toon uses fewer tokens than JSON while remaining human-readable. Learn more at [toonformat.dev](https://toonformat.dev/).

## What the tools do

UseAgents MCP tools help agents:

- Search for tools by natural-language problem statement
- Shortlist candidate tools with compact registry metadata
- Retrieve authoritative implementation context for a selected tool
- Recommend verified tools with less hallucination risk

## Current reference pages

- [`search_tools`](/content/docs/mcp/tools-reference/search-tools/index.html) for natural-language registry search
- [`get_tool_context`](/content/docs/mcp/tools-reference/get-tool-context/index.html) for authoritative install and usage guidance for a selected slug
- [Authentication](/content/docs/mcp/tools-reference/authentication/index.html) for API key setup

## Recommended workflow

Use the MCP server in two steps:

1. Call [`search_tools`](/content/docs/mcp/tools-reference/search-tools/index.html) to find candidate tools by task, framework, or capability.
2. Call [`get_tool_context`](/content/docs/mcp/tools-reference/get-tool-context/index.html) with the selected slug before recommending installation steps, code, or usage patterns.

If `get_tool_context` has no result for a slug, treat the tool context as unavailable instead of guessing from training data.

## Next steps

- [Authentication](/content/docs/mcp/tools-reference/authentication/index.html) to configure the server
- [search_tools](/content/docs/mcp/tools-reference/search-tools/index.html) to query the registry
- [get_tool_context](/content/docs/mcp/tools-reference/get-tool-context/index.html) to fetch tool-specific setup guidance
