How to pick the right search endpoint from the catalog with Monid

List and inspect web-search endpoints across providers before choosing one.

Who it is forA researcher or agent builder who needs to choose a search API for a job and wants the exact contract first.

The problemMany providers offer similar search endpoints, and the right one depends on the contract and category.

The outcomeA short shortlist of web-search endpoints with one full contract to compare.

What you need first

  • Deno 2.x installed
  • git installed to clone the repo
  • A vendor API key for the provider you want to run live (for example TINYFISH_CREDENTIALS_API_KEY)
  • An APIFY_CREDENTIALS_API_KEY if you use the Apify scaffold step

Steps

  1. Clone the repo with git clone https://github.com/monid-ai/monid.git and cd monid
  2. deno task catalog providers to see what exists
  3. deno task catalog endpoints --category web-search to list search endpoints across providers
  4. deno task catalog inspect 'exa#search' to read one endpoint's full contract

Prompt for your agent

In the monid repo, run deno task catalog endpoints --category web-search and then deno task catalog inspect on the two most relevant endpoints for <your search goal>. Report a short comparison of their inputs and descriptions.

Caveat. The catalog shows what the connectors declare, so it does not confirm live health or quality of each provider.
