Integration details

Description

Set up a used-car search without working through every filter yourself. Connect your existing CarScout account to create scouts, change their criteria, and review your saved matches. Scouts check roughly every 24 hours and send a daily digest email when there are new matches or price drops. You can also decode a VIN, check model-year recalls, and read aggregate market data without an account. Tell CarScout what car you want, or ask it to review one of your scouts.

Tools

12 tools agents can invoke

Return your scout capacity and a creationRequestId with requestExpiresAt. create_scout accepts the ID for 24 hours, and a matching retry returns the existing scout instead of a duplicate.
check_limits
Read available NHTSA model-year recall campaigns and complaint counts. These records do not establish a specific VIN's recall coverage or repair status.
check_recalls
Create a saved search (scout) from vehicle and filter criteria or a VIN pattern. Each request carries a creationRequestId from check_limits, so a matching retry returns the existing scout instead of a duplicate. Scouts check roughly every 24 hours and email a daily digest of new matches and price drops.
create_scout
Decode available vehicle specifications from a VIN. This lookup does not provide accident history or recall repair status.
decode_vin
Delete one scout. This stops its daily checks and deletes its saved alerts.
delete_scout
Dismiss one saved match from one of your scouts, with a reason.
dismiss_alert
Read saved matches from one of your scouts, one page at a time. This does not run a new inventory search. Dealer names, titles, and links are third-party listing data.
get_alerts
Get dated aggregate asking prices, model-year recalls, and EPA fuel economy. Results include data freshness; unavailable values are null and unavailable lists are empty. Does not return listings or a vehicle appraisal.
get_market_data
Read one of your scouts, including every search criterion and its latest update time.
get_scout
Read your saved scouts, full search criteria, status, and latest update time. Scout names are text the user entered.
list_scouts
Send a bug report, feature request, or feedback to the CarScout team. This saves the report and can send an email notification to CarScout support that cannot be recalled.
submit_feedback
Change the supplied fields of one scout and keep the rest. This overwrites the supplied saved criteria and changes future marketplace checks and daily digests. vehicleIndex edits one saved vehicle, and vehicleCombinations replaces the full vehicle list. Filter objects change only the supplied includes or excludes. A stale expectedUpdatedAt returns a conflict and changes nothing.
update_scout

FAQs

Read the methodology

How do I improve CarScout's ChatGPT Plugin discoverability?

The levers are the listing surface agents actually read: names, descriptions, keywords, tool metadata, and registry health. Which lever matters depends on where discovery breaks, which is what continuous measurement shows.
