Get quiz content by parameters

The `get_trivia_questions` tool pulls random trivia questions based on specific criteria like category, difficulty, and tags. You don't just get a list; you get actual usable quiz data. This is perfect for drafting educational material or building interactive content directly in the chat environment.

See what topics are available

Need to know what subjects we can quiz on? The `list_trivia_categories` tool shows all defined knowledge areas. This helps you scope out a project before writing any code. It gives you the full list of categories, so your agent knows exactly where to look for relevant questions.

Filter by keywords and tags

Use `list_trivia_tags` when you want to narrow down a quiz. It pulls specific filtering keywords—think '90s' or 'Space Exploration.' This adds precision that general searches miss. Your agent can then combine these tags with categories for highly focused and relevant quizzes.
