Server tool list (15)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| get_pricing | Prices per GB (USD) for residential / mobile / datacenter proxies. |
| list_locations | Countries available for the given proxy type. |
| create_account | Creates a new account WITHOUT registration forms and returns an API key (pc_live_...). IMPORTANT: if the human already has a ProxyCove account, do NOT create a new one — ask them for a key from the website cabinet or the Telegram bot instead. The key is shown ONCE and IS the account: there is no password. Tell the human to save it and add it as the Authorization header ("Bearer <key>") of this connector. Losing the key means losing the balance unless a recovery channel is attached — offer attach_recovery (email) or link_telegram right after the account is created. |
| get_account | Current balance (USD), attached email and number of active proxies. |
| create_topup | Creates an invoice and returns payment_url. Give the URL to the human — they open it in the browser and pay. Methods: sbp (Russian instant bank transfer, default for RU users), card_ru (Russian bank card), crypto (crypto via the RU provider), card_international (international card, best for non-RU users), crypto_cryptomus (crypto via Cryptomus — alternative crypto gateway). Agents must NEVER collect card details. |
| pay_from_agent_wallet | Tops up the ProxyCove balance by paying yourself, without sending a link to a human. Requires a machine payment credential (MPP / Shared Payment Token) in your HTTP client. Returns the endpoint and instructions: POST {"amount_usd": N} with your ProxyCove key in the Authorization header, answer the HTTP 402 challenge, and the balance is credited at once. If you have no payment credential, use create_topup instead and hand the link to the human. |
| get_payment_status | Status of an invoice: pending | paid | cancelled. Poll after the human opens the payment link. |
| buy_proxy | Buys a proxy, deducting the account balance. Returns connection credentials (host go.proxycove.com, port 824 = new IP every request, port 10000 = sticky IP by interval). Check get_pricing × traffic_gb against the balance first. IMPORTANT: wait ~5 seconds after the purchase before sending the first request through the proxy — the country filter takes a moment to propagate at the upstream provider, so an immediate first request may exit from another country. |
| list_proxies | All proxies of the account with remaining traffic and connection credentials. |
| get_credentials | Connection string for one proxy: http://login:password@go.proxycove.com:port. |
| extend_proxy | Adds prepaid GB to an existing proxy (same credentials keep working). Deducts balance. |
| get_usage | Live used / remaining traffic for one proxy. |
| set_rotation | Switch between rotate-every-request (port 824) and sticky interval 1..120 minutes (port 10000). |
| link_telegram | Returns a short code the human sends to the ProxyCove Telegram bot (@ProxyCove_bot → "Link website account"). After linking, the human can manage the account and issue new API keys from the bot — a second way to keep access if the API key is lost. Code expires in 30 minutes. |
| attach_recovery | Attaches an email to the account so the human can log in on proxycove.com (via "Forgot password") and never lose the balance. |
