Frequently asked questions
What search syntax does the Internet Archive support?
The IA search uses Solr-like syntax: AND, OR, NOT for boolean logic, wildcards (*), phrase matching ("..."), and field-specific searches like creator:"Name", subject:"Topic", collection:"name". Combine multiple criteria for precise results.
What collections are available?
Major collections include: prelinger (ephemeral films), gutenberg (free ebooks), nasa (space images/videos), tv (TV news archive), fedflix (government films), netlabels (independent music), softwarelibrary (classic games/apps), and thousands more community collections.
Can I search by date range?
Yes! Use search_by_date_range with a query, start_year, and end_year. Example: query="science fiction", start_year="1950", end_year="1959" finds all sci-fi from the 1950s.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Internet Archive Search tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
