- Folders & Directories — List and create robust structural boundaries directly inside your Canto workspace.
- Album Orchestration — Enumerate active albums and generate new collections to dynamically gather related assets.
- Asset Metadata — Analyze specific image properties, inspect EXIF parameters, and perform automated metadata validation and rewrites.
- Global Media Search — Tap into raw status configurations to perform a deep search across all your Canto folders without manual navigation loops.
- File Management — Assign precise assets to specific UI albums to prevent orphaned storage clusters, or cleanly wipe obsolete data from the live database.

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI agent help me enforce metadata compliance across my Canto digital assets?
Yes. You can instruct your AI to search for assets matching specific parameters or lacking required EXIF data, and automatically apply bulk updates to those customFields using the update metadata tool. Marketing teams use this to standardize their entire unstructured media library inside Canto in seconds.
Am I able to restructure my Canto hierarchy without using the web application?
Absolutely. Ask your agent to list your current folders and albums, and you can map out a totally new structure. The agent can dynamically create new folders and albums, and immediately assign existing media to these new groupings via the API, preventing any orphaned storage scenarios.
Can the agent search for specific imagery based on broad keywords quickly?
Yes, the AI uses Canto's global asset search to bypass manual navigation loops. It can query across boundaries to pull up exactly the campaign shots or product imagery you need. You can then request the deep metadata details of any returned image directly through the conversation.
How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?
Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.
Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.
Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?
Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
