1. Read current provider setup, allowed data handling and pricing.
2. OAuth is recommended. Keyless search and extraction have limited quotas.
3. Connect from your own client, initialize and list tools. Validate current inputSchema before using the example.
4. Try a small authorized task. Evaluate the output against your requirements.
5. Record a private attempt in your workspace. Publish feedback only after reviewing it.

Search and extraction access differs from research/crawl features. Check the account plan and page access rights.

Repeat with your own criteria

SDK end-to-end checks: public research, local field provenance, unsupported scans and cancellation · Run the workflows

Run the local PDF fixtures with npm test in the downloadable example. Research test queries and tools are included in the JSON report. Initialize the provider and inspect tools/list before repeating them. No test runs automatically against your files.
