01// about this endpoint

Access YouTube data through agntdata: Youtube Search. This endpoint will a specific number of videos for a specific keyword, note that the maximum is 40 videos per request. Responses are structured JSON for AI agents, analytics, and automation — one API key instead of juggling upstream accounts. Ideal when you need video metadata, channel discovery, comments, subtitles, and recommendations programmatically.

You are wiring up the agntdata "YouTube" API to use this endpoint: Youtube Search.

1. CONNECT over MCP (preferred). Add the superagnt MCP server, then let the client
   run OAuth on first tool call — no token to paste:
     claude mcp add --scope user --transport http superagnt https://mcp.superagnt.com/mcp
     claude mcp login superagnt
   MCP endpoint: https://mcp.superagnt.com/mcp
   After connecting, the tool you want is named exactly:
     data_youtube_youtube_search
   Call agnt_tools_search or agnt_tools_list_enabled to confirm it is available.

2. REST fallback (if you are not using MCP):
     GET https://api.agntdata.dev/search/
     Header: Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_AGNTDATA_API_KEY>
   Required parameters:
    - query (string, required)
   Optional parameters:
    - lang (string, optional)
    - order_by (string, optional) — Possible values: \\\\\\\"last_hour\\\\\\\", \\\\\\\"today\\\\\\\", \\\\\\\"this_week\\\\\\\", \\\\\\\"this_month\\\\\\\", \\\\\\\"this_year\\\\\\\"
    - country (string, optional)

3. COST & KEY. This endpoint is priced per call in credits, and each successful response reports its own cost in its meta.costCents field. Only successful calls are charged.
   Get an agntdata API key at https://app.agntdata.dev.

4. TEST. Connect the server (or set the key), discover the tool
   (data_youtube_youtube_search), run one minimal call with just the required parameters,
   and report back the shape of the JSON response (top-level fields).
