Frequently asked

What does the Random Quote Generator API do?

Generate or search quotes from a bundled SQLite quote database. Use it when you need exact JSON instead of asking an LLM to recreate well-defined utility logic.

How much does one call to Random Quote Generator cost?

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

What parameters does the Random Quote Generator API require?

Required fields: (none). Full schema at /v1/openapi.json.

Is the Random Quote Generator API deterministic?

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

Can an AI agent call the Random Quote Generator API?

Yes. Connect to https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp over the Model Context Protocol. The agent discovers `random-quote-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`.

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-quote-generator) and its JSON Schema automatically — no client codegen.

# List tools the agent can call
curl -s https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}' \
