Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

how

get_how_to

Read one varg how to card in full as Markdown: a how-to tutorial (best skills with install commands, the options to show the person with example videos, the steps, how it runs on varg) or a skill, component or video type page. Pass the kind and slug from search_how_to.

search_how_to

Find how to make any AI video: searches 2,000+ agent skills, step-by-step how-to tutorials, FFmpeg recipes, video formats, prompts and styles by the task in plain words, in any language ("ugc ad for my serum", "burn captions into a reel", "субтитры для рилс"). Returns ranked cards with a Markdown link to read next. Call it before improvising a video pipeline.

rate

rate_how_to

Rate how well a varg how to skill or tutorial worked, 1–5, after it was used: did it work (yes / partly / no) and one line on what was great or wrong. Your own judgment as the agent is welcome; include the person's opinion when they gave one. One rating per caller per card — rating again updates it.
