• Allow AI App/Agent/LLM to find this MCP Server via common python/typescript API, search and explore relevant servers and tools

Example: Search Server and Tools

import anthropic
import mcp_marketplace as mcpm

result_q = mcpm.search(query="apisix mcp", mode="list", page_id=0, count_per_page=100, config_name="deepnlp") # search server by category choose various endpoint
result_id = mcpm.search(id="api7/apisix-mcp", mode="list", page_id=0, count_per_page=100, config_name="deepnlp")      # search server by id choose various endpoint 
tools = mcpm.list_tools(id="api7/apisix-mcp", config_name="deepnlp_tool")

# Call Claude to Choose Tools Function Calls 
client = anthropic.Anthropic()
response = client.messages.create(model="claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219", max_tokens=1024, tools=tools, messages=[])
