Agishub MCP tools 34
ai.chatAsk a general-purpose LLM a question or give it an instruction, with an optional system prompt. No external API key required.ai.classifyClassify a text into exactly one of the candidate labels you provide (e.g. sentiment, topic, intent).ai.embedTurn text into a numeric embedding vector for semantic search, RAG and similarity. Multilingual.ai.extractExtract named entities from text — people, organizations, locations, dates and miscellaneous — returned as structured JSON.ai.summarizeSummarize a block of text into a short abstract, with an optional target length. No external API key required.web.browserDrive a headless browser: open a URL and run an ordered list of steps — click, type, press keys, wait, extract text and screenshot. For flows the plain scraper can't reach (logins, forms, multi-step pages).web.crawlCrawl multiple pages of a site, respecting link depth and domain limits. Returns async job_id; results include markdown or HTML per page. Use it to fetch and process many pages of content at once.web.extractFetch any public web page and return its main content as clean, token-efficient Markdown (title, description, headings, links, lists). Set render:true to execute JavaScript first for single-page apps or JS-heavy pages that would otherwise come back empty. Built for RAG and for agents that need to r…web.extract_structuredAI-powered structured extraction: give a URL plus a natural-language prompt and/or a JSON Schema, and get back clean structured JSON (e.g. product name, price, rating). Renders the page in a headless browser first, so it works on SPAs.web.linksReturn every hyperlink on a JavaScript-rendered page as a list of absolute URLs, with options to keep only visible links or only same-site links. Backed by a headless browser. Use it to map a site or seed a crawler.web.mapDiscover all URLs reachable from a domain within a link depth limit. Returns a flat list of absolute URLs, respects robots.txt crawl delays. Use it to map a site's structure before crawling.web.scrapeExtract specific elements from a JavaScript-rendered page by CSS selector. Give a list of selectors (e.g. 'h1', '.price', 'a.product') and get back the text and attributes of every match. Backed by a headless browser, so it works on SPAs and JS-heavy pages.- +22 more on the listing page
