What it can do

search_projects: Find projects by meaning, or browse by fair, year, category and award. Ask it “has anyone done my idea?” and it will actually answer.
get_project: The full record for one project: abstract, awards, competition history, source link.
find_similar_projects: Neighbours of a project you already found, by embedding similarity.
corpus_stats: What the corpus actually covers, so an assistant does not guess.

Limits and manners

Read-only. Nothing here can write, and no account data is reachable.
30 requests per minute per address, and at most 25 projects per call.

A plain JSON API is coming for people who would rather use requests than an agent.
