💡 How the free tier works: Your account gets 5,000 credits/month (~$7.50 value), auto-renewed on the 1st with no credit card required . MCP requests draw from this shared pool — base tools (search_engine, scrape_as_markdown, discover) cost 1 credit per request , while web_data_* tools cost 1 credit per record returned . Unused credits don't roll over , and when they run out requests stop (no surprise charges unless you've deposited funds). Pro mode is not included in the free tier and incurs additional charges based on usage.

🧠 Advanced Tool Selection

  • GROUPS lets you enable curated tool bundles. Use comma-separated group IDs such as ecommerce,browser.

  • TOOLS adds explicit tool names on top of the selected groups.

  • Mode priority: PRO_MODE=true (all tools) → GROUPS / TOOLS (whitelist) → default rapid mode (base toolkit).

  • Base tools always enabled: search_engine, search_engine_batch, scrape_as_markdown, scrape_batch, discover.

  • Group ID custom is reserved; use TOOLS for bespoke picks.
