Replace SEARCH_KEYWORDS with 1-3 simple terms (e.g., "LinkedIn profiles", "Amazon products", "Twitter").
Fetch the Actor's input schema and details dynamically using mcpc:
export $(grep APIFY_TOKEN .env | xargs) && mcpc --json mcp.apify.com --header "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" tools-call fetch-actor-details actor:="ACTOR_ID" | jq -r ".content"
Replace ACTOR_ID with the selected Actor (e.g., compass/crawler-google-places).

tools
Use when the user wants to manage Valet agents, channels, connectors, organizations, or environment variables (secrets and plain config) via the valet CLI. Handles creation, deployment, linking, teardown, and all multi-step workflows. Also use when asked to "create an agent", "deploy an agent", "design an agent", "build me an agent that...", "create a connector", "set up a webhook", or anything involving the Valet platform or any request to create and deploy AI agents. Also use when asked to "learn from this session", "capture this workflow", "save this as an agent", "make this repeatable", or when writing SOUL.md files.
tools
Publish files, folders, and artifacts to the web. Static hosting for HTML sites, images, PDFs, reports, dashboards, and any file type. Use when asked to publish, host, upload, serve, or share work at a live URL. Also use to propose a rendered page when a report, comparison, chart, design document, or status page would work better than terminal text, but do not create or update a remote site until the user asks or agrees. Account publishing gives a permanent, private-by-default URL visible to org members; --anonymous gives a temporary public URL with no account. Use the valet CLI when available and its MCP server when the CLI cannot run. For deploying an AI agent rather than static files, use the `valet` skill instead.
