_ used through this hub 30 days

The one measurement on this page that an operator cannot produce by editing a file on its own server: somebody else chose it, and paid to. Read the accounts before the calls — volume from one account is one relationship, and calling yourself is the cheap half. Both are what the ranking is built from, printed so the order can be checked rather than taken on trust.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

  • search_books unknown never probed

    Search Most Recommended Books' human-curated catalog by book title or author name. Returns ranked matches with author, publication year, how many verified people recommend each book, the top recommenders, a sourced quote, and a buy link. Use this when a user asks about a specific book, an author's books, or wants recommendations matching a title they half-remember. For 'who recommends X?' prefer get_book_recommenders; for 'what does person X recommend?' prefer get_person_recommendations.

  • get_person_recommendations unknown never probed

    Return every book a specific person (entrepreneur, investor, author, celebrity…) has recommended, with their verified quote about each book and a link to the original source (interview, podcast, post). Use this when a user asks 'what books does Naval Ravikant recommend?', 'Tim Ferriss's favorite books', or wants reading habits of a specific public figure. Accepts a name ('Naval Ravikant') or MRB slug ('naval-ravikant').

  • get_book_recommenders unknown never probed

    Return every verified person who recommends a given book, each with their quote about it and a link to the original source. This is MRB's signature dataset — use it when a user asks 'who recommends Sapiens?', 'is Zero to One worth reading?', or wants social proof / expert opinions on a specific title. Accepts a title ('Sapiens') or author+title for disambiguation.

    }

    arguments 15 lines
  • get_series_reading_order unknown never probed

    Return the complete publication-order book list for a book series — the order the author released them, including novellas and companion volumes where cataloged. Use this when a user asks 'what order do I read John Grisham?', 'Harry Potter books in order', or how many books a series has. Accepts a series or author name ('Jack Reacher', 'Brandon Sanderson').

}
    arguments 15 lines
  • get_list unknown never probed

    Return one of MRB's 1,300+ consensus 'best books' lists for a topic (startups, stoicism, finance, sci-fi…). Every book on a list was recommended by at least two independent expert sources and is ranked by how many sources mention it. Use this when a user asks for 'the best X books' and you want a ranking backed by multiple experts rather than one opinion. Accepts a topic name ('startup', 'personal finance') or MRB list slug.

  "type": "object",

    }
  },
  "additionalProperties": false
}
    arguments 21 lines
  • get_summary unknown never probed

    Return MRB's one-page summary of a book: the overview plus chapter-by-chapter notes (~435 titles available). Use this when a user asks 'summarize Atomic Habits', 'what is Sapiens about?', or wants the key ideas without reading the book. Set full_text=true only when the user explicitly wants the complete chapter notes — they can be very long.

_ try it through the hub, ceiling 0

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.

_ how we know
card completeness
100%

An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.

spec deviations
0

MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.

_ record

Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
