## What ebooksdepository does, in the publisher's words

Official public agent integrations for EbooksDepository: search ebooks and audiobooks, find the independent bookshops that carry each title, inspect fresh store offers when available, browse bookshops, and read the developer documentation.

The surfaces are anonymous, read-only, and free. EbooksDepository does not sell books or process payments. Store offers are freshness-stamped snapshots, not a cheapest-store ranking; missing prices are never estimated.

This repository is also the official EbooksDepository plugin for ChatGPT, Codex, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork. It bundles three focused skills with the published EbooksDepository MCP server:

- ebooksdepository: route general book-discovery questions safely.
- find-digital-books: find ebooks and audiobooks and inspect store offers.
- find-independent-bookshops: browse indexed bookshops by country.

## Skills

- chatgpt-book-metadata: Search non-transactional ebook and audiobook bibliographic metadata on EbooksDepository by title, author, publisher, or language, and retrieve one public catalog record by slug.
- ebooksdepository: Find ebooks and audiobooks and the independent bookshops that carry them. Use for title, author, publisher, language, free-book, availability, bookshop, and aggregate indie-reading questions; never open checkout links or state prices.
- find-digital-books: Find an ebook or audiobook by title, author, or publisher and identify independent bookshops that carry it. Use when someone asks where to buy or find a digital book, requests availability in a language, or wants free-book results without an automated checkout.
- find-independent-bookshops: Browse independent ebook and audiobook bookshops indexed by EbooksDepository. Use when someone asks for digital bookshops, a bookshop in a particular country, shops with large catalogs, or where a selected title is available from independent retailers.

Descriptions come from the frontmatter of each SKILL.md, punctuation lightly normalized.
