Can my AI automatically find the AppID of a game using only its name?

Yes! Use the `search_all_steam_apps` tool. Your agent will scan the Steam database and return matching AppIDs, which are required for all other technical tools.

Is it possible to monitor the live player count for a new game like Deadlock?

Absolutely. The `get_current_player_count` tool provides real-time data from Steam servers, allowing you to quantify the hype and player base of any specific title at any moment.

How do I find a user's SteamID64 if I only have their profile URL?

Use the `resolve_vanity_url` tool with the custom part of the URL. The agent will return the unique 64-bit identifier required for all user-specific statistical queries.
