API & MCP

Everything a person can do on Premium apps, a program or AI agent can do with the same inputs and get the identical result.

HTTP API

• GET https://apps.usefulweb.app/api/v1/tools – catalog
• GET https://apps.usefulweb.app/api/v1/tools/{id} – inputs, output schema, examples
• POST https://apps.usefulweb.app/api/v1/tools/{id}/calculate – run a tool
• GET https://apps.usefulweb.app/api/v1/workflows · POST https://apps.usefulweb.app/api/v1/workflows/{id}/run
• OpenAPI 3.1: /openapi.json · /openapi.yaml
• Errors: application/problem+json; 422 includes per-field errors.

Every result contains

inputs (normalised, defaults applied), summary, result (validated against the published schema), units, assumptions, sources, warnings, computedAt and links.
