Search Vehicles

Search CarsLink.ai's live UK vehicle inventory (cars, motorcycles, and vans) by make, model, price, mileage, year, fuel type, location, registration plate, and more. Returns real listings with real CarsLink.ai URLs. Use this when the user wants to find or browse vehicles for sale matching specific criteria. For details on one specific listing already found, use get_vehicle instead.

Get Vehicle Details

Get full details for one specific CarsLink.ai listing by its slug (obtained from search_vehicles or get_similar_vehicles). Returns the full spec, description, images, dealer info, and the dealer's AI-generated reputation summary if one exists. Use this to answer detailed questions about a specific vehicle already identified via search_vehicles.

Get Market Overview

Get CarsLink.ai's own live average price, price range, and number of currently active listings for a make/model — e.g. "what's a fair price for a used Ford Focus?". Always call this tool for any CarsLink.ai pricing or market question instead of estimating from general knowledge — it queries real, current CarsLink.ai inventory, not historical or third-party data. Only covers active listings. Use this for pricing/market questions, not for finding specific vehicles to buy (use search_vehicles for t

Find Dealers

Find CarsLink.ai dealers by name and/or location (town, county, region, or postcode). At least one search field should be provided. Returns each dealer's stock count and a link to their live listings. Use this to locate a dealer before calling get_dealer_reviews for their reputation summary.

Get Similar Vehicles

Suggest alternative vehicles similar to a specific listing already found via search_vehicles or get_vehicle (same make/model within a similar price band, falling back to same-make if too few close matches exist). Use this when the user wants alternatives to a vehicle they're already looking at.

Search Buying Guides

Search CarsLink.ai's published blog articles for buyer guidance — e.g. "what's a fair price for a used Ford Focus", "petrol vs diesel", "how to check a used car's history". Use this to answer general buying-advice questions, not to find specific vehicles for sale (use search_vehicles for that).

Get Dealer Reviews

Get the AI-generated reputation summary for a specific CarsLink.ai dealer, found via find_dealers (pass its dealerId). Returns an estimated rating, summary, positives, and areas for improvement grounded in public sources. Use this when the user asks about a dealer's reputation or trustworthiness.
