faq frequently asked
What does the Random Date Generator API do?+

Generate random dates inside a bounded date range. Use it to add this utility without rebuilding formulas, validation, examples, and documentation.

How much does one call to Random Date Generator cost?+

1 credit per successful call. Failed calls (validation errors, 5xx) don't bill.

What parameters does the Random Date Generator API require?+

Required fields: start_date, end_date. Full schema at /v1/openapi.json.

Is the Random Date Generator API deterministic?+

This tool's output may vary (e.g. random generation). Version: 2026-04-22.

Can an AI agent call the Random Date Generator API?+

Yes. Connect to https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp over the Model Context Protocol. The agent discovers `random-date-generator` with its JSON Schema automatically, so the model can plan while MiniWebtool handles the exact tool result.

What format does the API return?+

JSON with a stable envelope: `{request_id, tool, tool_version, credits_used, result}`. Errors are RFC 7807 `application/problem+json`.

mcp use from an AI agent

Every endpoint on this site is also exposed via the Model Context Protocol at https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp. Claude, Cursor, and any MCP-capable agent can discover this tool (random-date-generator) and its JSON Schema automatically — no client codegen.

# List tools the agent can call
