apihub_searchLABSCO SUMMARY
Discovery is free; only the call spends.
Four of the nine tools are read-only, so an agent can browse the catalog, read a service's schema and check its balance before anything is billed — a wrong guess costs nothing. Payment settles from a single prepaid credit pool, which is what removes the per-provider key and the wallet.
What it is
A marketplace endpoint exposing nine tools: search and browse listed services, read a service's endpoints and schemas, call one, call an external x402 URL, read paid web content, top up, and check the balance.
What you get
- Search onboarded services by query, category, price or type — up to 10 ranked matches, each with endpoints and pricing
- Full detail for a service, every endpoint and schema included, before the agent commits to a paid call
- A call tool that debits credits, forwards to the upstream provider, and returns the body, status and credits charged
- External x402 APIs indexed from on-chain activity, callable from the same credits with no wallet of your own
- A paid content gateway that returns a URL as clean structured text
- Credit balance, total spend and request count, plus top-up instructions when funds run low
Requirements
An APIHub API key, sent as a bearer token in the Authorization header to the streamable HTTP endpoint. The handshake and tool listing are open, so a client can discover the tools before a key exists; only calls authenticate. Running npx @apihubio/cli install writes the config for whichever clients it detects.
Setup effort
One command plus a key — npx @apihubio/cli install, then supply credentials
USE CASES
01
Answering a question no built-in tool covers
Search the catalog for a service that fits, read its endpoint schema, then make the call.
02
Keeping spend visible while an agent works
Check the balance before a paid call and read back what the call actually cost.
03
Reaching an API that is not listed here
Call an external x402 URL through the same credits, without provisioning a wallet.
04
Reading a page behind a paid content gateway
Pull it as structured text and pay for that single read.
