# Eden Engine

> Eden Engine is a catalog of pay-per-call tools that an AI agent can use through one MCP connection. Its tool API and MCP server are called Omnial, which is why the tool names start with `omnial_`. You top up a prepaid balance, the agent searches the catalog, and each call is priced before it runs.

Each tool names the company whose data it returns. A failed run is not charged.

## How an agent uses it

1. Search: `omnial_search` finds a tool by the words you would type.
2. Inspect: `omnial_inspect` returns the tool's input and output contract.
3. Learn: `omnial_learn` returns usage instructions written for an agent.
4. Price and run: `omnial_execute` quotes the call, holds the quoted amount, then runs it.
5. Settle: you are charged the call's final price, never more than the hold, and the rest of the hold is released.

## Adding funds

- A signed-in person adds funds by card. The total to pay is shown before paying. A top-up is at most $2,000, and a day's top-ups together with the balance the day started with can come to at most $2,000 (UTC day).
- Balance is prepaid credit for Eden Engine services. It is not money and never expires, except as unclaimed-property law requires.
