## Tools (7)

- `early_offers`: Offers that are verified but not public yet (embargoed, each with public_after), plus new, changed and closed offer events from the last 30 days, filtered by the subscription topics. Needs the private feed token from subscribe (webhook) or from the email confirmation page.
- `find_credits`: Answer "what free credits / free tier / startup program can I get for X". Ranked, verified offers matching a need such as "free speech to text credits", "GPU for a bootstrapped startup" or "student LLM API credits". Each result has credit_value, eligibility, how_to_claim, claim_url, source_url, source_snippet (verbatim vendor quote) and last_verified. Closed offers are excluded unless filters.include_closed is true.
- `get_offer`: Full record for one Perq offer by id (e.g. "deepgram-200-credit"), including source quote, last_verified, recorded changes and packs that contain it.
- `get_pack`: One curated pack by slug with every offer in it and how its up-to total was computed (which offers counted and why others did not).
- `list_packs`: Curated bundles of offers (e.g. AI startup launch pack, LLM API free tier pack, voice AI pack) with each pack's headline and up-to total where one is computed.
- `recently_changed`: Offers added, updated (value, eligibility, claim steps) or closed in the last N days (dates in America/New_York).
- `subscribe`: Get newly verified offers before they are public on https://perq.sh (about 24h early), plus closures and changes. Give either email (a person: we send a confirmation link, then a digest only on days with something new) or webhook_url (an agent: https only, public hosts only; each new offer is POSTed as JSON signed with HMAC-SHA256). A webhook signup returns the signing secret once, a private feed token for early_offers, and the result of a signed verification ping. Only subscribe an address or URL the user asked you to.
