What data it sees

Do you need an account

No: the server works without sign-in

One MCP for 160+ live web-data APIs — search, social, e-commerce, real estate, jobs, travel, news, finance. The assistant discovers the right engine, then pulls clean JSON from sites that block scrapers
(captcha, login, JS, anti-bot). Discovery is keyless; calls use a free ReefAPI key.

search_enginesFind the right ReefAPI engine for a task — pass ENGLISH keywords or a short natural-language use-case ("detect a website's tech stack", "company reviews", "check a package for vulnerabilities", "is this domain available"). The catalog is in English: if the end-user asked in another language, translate their INTENT into English keywords first (you are an LLM — do this inline). Ranks engines by how well the query matches each engine's name/title/category/ACTION descriptions (stem-matched, so plurals/word-forms still hit). Empty query = list all. Returns name/title/category/actions + match score. Call this FIRST, then get_engine_schema(engine) to pick an action. This is a fast keyword pre-filter — if the right engine isn't in the results (or you want to be sure), call get_catalog and pick from the full list YOURSELF (you semantically match any language/phrasing better than keywords).
get_engine_schemaCOMPACT overview of ONE engine: every action with its description, required params and what it returns — but NOT the full param detail (kept lean so a 90-action engine stays token-cheap). Call this after search_engines to pick the right ACTION, then get_action_schema(engine, action) for that action's full params before call_engine.
get_action_schemaFULL detail for ONE engine action: every parameter (type, required, description, allowed_values dropdown, default, example, min/max), what it returns, pricing, and a ready-to-run example_params. Call this right before call_engine so you send valid params — invalid enum values are rejected with the allowed list.
call_engineCall a ReefAPI engine action — POST /<engine>/v1/<action> with `params`. Returns the uniform { ok, data, meta, error } envelope. Get param names from get_engine_schema first. Needs YOUR ReefAPI key (the local server reads REEFAPI_KEY; the hosted server reads the `Authorization: Bearer ak_live_...` header you configure on the connection). Get a key at https://reefapi.com. Failed calls cost no credits.
get_catalogThe FULL ReefAPI catalog — EVERY engine with its one-line title, grouped by category. This is the whole menu (≈ a few thousand tokens); SCAN IT AND PICK THE BEST ENGINE YOURSELF. You are an LLM, so you match the user's intent semantically — across ANY language, typo, or phrasing — far better than a keyword search can. Use this whenever search_engines didn't surface the right engine (or to be sure you didn't miss a better one). After you pick: get_engine_schema(engine) -> get_action_schema -> call_engine.
