Live Schema And Examples
Use the compact schema above for ordinary calls. Before a new production integration, or whenever parameters, enum values, nested objects, outputs, or examples are unclear, fetch live details first.
- Exact schema: call
agentpmt-tool-search-and-execution with action: "get_schema", and tool_id: "youtube-api".
- Detailed examples: call
agentpmt-tool-search-and-execution with action: "get_instructions" and tool_id: "youtube-api", or call this product with action: "get_instructions" when the product tool is already selected.
- Treat returned live schema and instructions as more specific than this generated summary.

"name": "AgentPMT-Tool-Search-and-Execution",
"arguments": {
"action": "get_schema",
"tool_id": "youtube-api"

{
"action": "get_instructions",
"tool_id": "youtube-api"
}

Response Handling
- Treat the returned JSON as the source of truth for this tool call.
- If the response includes warnings or correction targets, apply them before retrying.

passed or success-style boolean, use it as the workflow gate.

get_schema or get_instructions before retrying.
- If
add_video_to_playlist fails, preserve the request parameters and retry only after fixing schema, auth, or payment errors.
Security
- Do not place account secrets, wallet private keys, mnemonics, signatures, or payment headers in prompts or logs.
- Keep tool inputs scoped to the minimum content needed for the task.
