Example: search the index

Call toolfound_search_tools with a query and an optional limit. The result lists matching listings with their slug, tagline, pricing model, votes, status and canonical listing URL.

curl -sS https://toolfound.com/api/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
      "name": "toolfound_search_tools",
      "arguments": { "query": "invoicing", "limit": 2 }
    }
  }'

{
  "ok": true,
  "query": "invoicing",
  "result_count": 2,
  "results": [
    {
      "slug": "pocket-invoice",
      "name": "Pocket Invoice",
      "tagline": "Free invoicing and PDF business documents, with a free MCP server for AI assistants.",
      "listing_url": "https://toolfound.com/tool/pocket-invoice",

}

Use the slug from a result as the argument to toolfound_get_product or toolfound_get_alternatives to read one listing or its neighbours in the same section.
