## MCP tools (12)

### `ab_search` (~229 tokens)

Search products

Search products by keyword: price, discount, stock and rating of each match.

Use first for "price of X" / "do you have X". Matching is broad (title and description),
so check titles. Cheapest match: ab_find_cheapest; a category or brand: ab_browse; one
product's variants: ab_product. out_of_stock_matches counts sold-out matches when none is in stock.

Input parameters:

- `in_stock_only` (boolean): Only items that can be ordered now.
- `limit` (integer): Products per page.
- `max_price`: Maximum current price in Toman, e.g. 2000000.
- `min_price`: Minimum current price in Toman, e.g. 1000000.
- `page` (integer): Page number, from 1.
- `query` (string, required): Product name or keyword, Persian or English, e.g. 'شامپو ضد شوره' or 'la roche posay'.
- `sort` (string): Order of the listing. 'default' puts in-stock items first (relevance for a search).

### `ab_find_cheapest` (~161 tokens)

Find cheapest product

Find the cheapest in-stock products for a keyword, one list sorted by price (Toman).

Use for the lowest price of X. Only titles containing every query word are kept by default
(the site search also matches descriptions). Check ab_product for the size you need.
complete=false means more in-stock matches lie past `scanned`: raise scan.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Max offers to return.
- `match_all_words` (boolean): Keep only titles that contain every word of the query.
- `query` (string, required): Product name or keyword, Persian or English, e.g. 'شامپو ضد شوره' or 'la roche posay'.
- `scan` (integer): How many in-stock search results to scan, cheapest first.

### `ab_browse` (~300 tokens)

Browse a category or brand

List products of a category or brand (or the whole shop) with sort, price range, stock and attribute filters.

Use for "cheapest shampoo for oily hair", "Graph brushes under 800,000 Toman". Pass a category
slug (ab_categories), a brand slug (ab_brands), both, or neither; filters come from ab_filters.
Details: ab_product; reviews: ab_reviews.

Input parameters:

- `brand`: Brand slug from ab_brands, e.g. 'graph' or 'la-roche-posay'.
- `category`: Category slug from ab_categories, e.g. 'hair-shampoo' or 'sunscreen'.
- `filters`: Attribute filters from ab_filters: attribute -> values (any of them matches), e.g. {'bulk': ['250-میلی-لیتر'], 'hair': ['چرب']}.
- `in_stock_only` (boolean): Only items that can be ordered now.
- `limit` (integer): Products per page.
- `max_price`: Maximum current price in Toman, e.g. 2000000.
- `min_price`: Minimum current price in Toman, e.g. 1000000.
- `on_sale_only` (boolean): Only discounted items.
- `page` (integer): Page number, from 1.
- `sort` (string): Order of the listing. 'default' puts in-stock items first (relevance for a search).

### `ab_filters` (~107 tokens)

Filters of a category or brand

List the attribute filters of a category or brand (volume, hair/skin type, gender, origin) with in-stock counts.

Use before ab_browse for a size or type: pass {attribute: [value, ...]} as its filters.

Input parameters:

- `brand`: Brand slug from ab_brands, e.g. 'graph' or 'la-roche-posay'.
- `category`: Category slug from ab_categories, e.g. 'hair-shampoo' or 'sunscreen'.

### `ab_categories` (~80 tokens)

List categories

List product categories (about 70) with slugs and counts.

Use to get a category slug for ab_browse / ab_filters. parent = parent category id (0 = top
level); count includes out-of-stock products.

Input parameters:

- `query`: Optional filter on the Persian name or slug, e.g. 'شامپو' or 'sun'.

### `ab_brands` (~100 tokens)

List brands

List brands (about 250) with slugs and product counts, biggest first.

Use to get the brand slug for ab_browse / ab_filters. The Latin slug usually matches better
than Persian spellings ('vichy', 'la-roche-posay').

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Max brands, biggest first.
- `query`: Optional filter on the Persian name or Latin slug, e.g. 'graph' or 'ویشی'.

### `ab_deals` (~95 tokens)

Current deals

List discounted in-stock products, biggest discount first.

Use for "what's on sale" / "discounted sunscreens"; optionally one category slug from
ab_categories. Ranks the first 300 deals: complete=false means more exist (see total).

Input parameters:

- `category`: Category slug from ab_categories, e.g. 'hair-shampoo' or 'sunscreen'.
- `limit` (integer): Max deals to return.

### `ab_shop_info` (~136 tokens)

is the shop".

Input parameters:

- `full_text` (boolean): Return the whole page text, not the first 8000 chars.
- `topic` (string): 'faq' (delivery times, shipping, originality, wallet, returns), 'terms' (cancellation, returns, delivery rules), 'about' (the shop, branches), 'contact' (phone, address, hours).

### `ab_blog_posts` (~119 tokens)

Blog posts and care guides

List Asal Banoo blog posts (skin and hair care guides, routines, "X vs Y" comparisons), newest first.

matching post, then read it with ab_blog_post.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Posts per page.
- `page` (integer): Page number, from 1, newest first.
- `query`: Optional keyword, e.g. 'ضد آفتاب' or 'پوست چرب'.

### `ab_blog_post` (~103 tokens)

Read a blog post

Read one blog post as plain text, plus the products and categories it links to.

Use after ab_blog_posts to answer care questions from the shop's own guides. Linked products
can be looked up with ab_search (by name) and categories browsed with ab_browse (slug).

Input parameters:

- `max_chars` (integer): Cut the text after this many characters.
- `post_id` (integer, required): Post id from ab_blog_posts, e.g. 791485.

### `ab_product` (~110 tokens)

Use after ab_search / ab_browse when the user picks a product. Reviews: ab_reviews.

Input parameters:

- `product_id` (integer, required): Asal Banoo product id from ab_search / ab_browse, e.g. 6963.

### `ab_reviews` (~182 tokens)

Product reviews

Read customers' reviews and questions about a product (newest first) with the shop's answers.

Use as a quality check, or for the shop's skin/hair advice (staff answer questions with a
recommended product). rating is null for a question; verified_buyer marks a confirmed purchase.
Dates are Jalali (1405-07-13). Texts are cut at 400 chars (ending …) unless full_text=true. count and star_counts
cover all reviews on the page; truncated=true means more than `limit` exist.

Input parameters:

- `full_text` (boolean): Return full review and reply texts, not 400-char cuts.
- `limit` (integer): Max reviews to return, newest first.
- `product_id` (integer, required): Asal Banoo product id from ab_search / ab_browse, e.g. 6963.

### Is the Asal Banoo MCP server safe to use?

Asal Banoo scores 79 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 22 October 2026. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### Is the Asal Banoo MCP server still maintained?
