What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 6, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

• search_artworks

  Use this when someone wants to find original paintings, prints, photographs or sculpture from independent artists: by subject, style, colour, size or budget; for a particular wall; or like a work or a photo they have. It returns only works that meet everything asked for, each wit

• get_artwork

  Use this when someone wants the full facts about one work before deciding: what it is, its size, how it looks, what delivery costs and when it ships, whether it can be returned, who made it, and what Fold verified about the seller. Full detail for one artwork: attribution, medium

• check_availability

  Use this when time has passed since a search or a work’s detail answered — the buyer came back later, or is weighing several works — to re-check whether specific impressions can still be bought before offering them. Each work here is unique or from a small edition, so an impressi

• save_search_alert

  Use this when a buyer wants to hear about works listed later that match what they are looking for. It saves the search — the buyer’s words in query and the same filters as search_artworks — and tells the buyer by e-mail, or your own system by webhook, when a work that matches it

• get_search_alert

  Use this when a buyer asks about an alert for new works they saved: whether it is waiting for them to confirm it, active or ended, what it watches, when it last sent works and when it ends. Needs the search_alert_id and manage_token save_search_alert gave.

• cancel_search_alert

  Use this when a buyer wants to stop an alert for new works. Nothing more is sent, and the saved words, filters and address are erased. Needs the search_alert_id and manage_token save_search_alert gave; a buyer can also stop it from any alert e-mail in one click.

• start_checkout

  Use this when the buyer has chosen one work and wants to buy it. It answers with checkout_url, a page on Fold’s own site for that one work, where the buyer enters the delivery address, sees the total with sales tax and the terms, and pays. It charges nothing and reserves nothing:

• get_delivered_quote

  Use this when a buyer asks what a work will cost delivered to them and when it would arrive. Given one listing_id and a US destination (a five-digit ZIP code, and the state if known), it answers with the price, the seller’s delivery charge, an ESTIMATE of sales tax from Fold’s ta

• get_order_status

  Use this when a buyer asks where their order is or what they can still claim. With the token from the order page’s address, or the order reference from the confirmation e-mail and the e-mail address the buyer gave at checkout, it answers with the order’s status, the tracking the

• open_claim

  Use this when a buyer wants to return a work or report a problem with an order: damage or a difference from the description on arrival, non-delivery, a doubt about authenticity or title, an agent purchase they did not authorise, cancelling before dispatch, or a 30-day return. It
