search_opsFind upAPI operations to call. upAPI is an API marketplace: 44 operations across 10 categories (Communication, Data, Developer Tools, Finance, Maps, Media, SEO tools, Search, Tools, YouTube) — web search, SERP, dev-tool and package lookups, geo/finance/weather data, page and sitemap parsing. Returns each match with its slug, what it does, its parameters, and what one call costs in quota units. Run one with `call_op`.
call_opRun one upAPI operation by slug. Discover slugs and their parameters with `search_ops` first. Costs the operation's own quota units per call (1 for most, more for search/browser-backed ones) — the exact figure is in the search result. Failures come back as a tool error carrying upAPI's error code, not as a broken session.
web_search_postSearch the web and get structured results (titles, URLs, snippets). DuckDuckGo-backed — no browser, no CAPTCHA, fast. upAPI operation `web-search.post` (Search). Costs 1 unit of monthly quota per call.
github_repo_getFetch metadata (stars, forks, topics, license, dates) for a public GitHub repository via the REST API. upAPI operation `github-repo.get` (Developer Tools). Costs 1 unit of monthly quota per call.
