Can I record a single event using this agent?

Yes, the `record_event` tool allows you to send a JSON object representing your event directly to any named collection.

How do I calculate the average value of a property?

Use the `average_property` tool by specifying the collection name and the numeric target property you want to average.

Is it possible to see my project's collections?

Absolutely. The `list_collections` tool retrieves a list of all event types (collections) currently stored in your Keen project.
