Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
AON — Agent Offer Network Tools (5)
aon_search_offers
Search offers by natural-language intent. Arguments are an [AgentOffer Query](https://github.com/agentoffernetwork/protocol) request object — the same shape as the REST API. Returns offers with pricing, a tracking link each, and an `engagement` block of pre-validated follow-up suggestions the agent…
aon_resolve_category
Turn free text ("hiking boots", "team chat software") into AON Taxonomy v1 category ids — the model never has to memorize or invent them.
aon_get_category_schema
Optional Hosted extension: return decision factors for an already resolved category id, to ask the right clarifying question before searching. Its standalone result does not add `decision_factors` to the Query request or response.
aon_submit_feedback
Record an explicit "dismissed" / "not interested" from the user on an offer — never inferred from silence. *Early scaffold: the call is acknowledged with success, but feedback is not persisted yet; the workflow behind it is rolling out.*
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
AON — Agent Offer Network is categorized under Developer Tools and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Next Devtools MCP belongs to Developer Tools using local stdio subprocess.
