Installation

pip install openai-agents-strale

Quick Start

Single Tool

from agents import Agent, Runner
from openai_agents_strale import create_strale_tool

validate_iban = create_strale_tool(
    api_key="sk_live_...",
    capability_slug="iban-validate",
)

agent = Agent(
    name="IBAN Validator",
    instructions="You validate IBAN numbers using the Strale API.",
    tools=[validate_iban],
)

result = Runner.run_sync(agent, "Is DE89370400440532013000 a valid IBAN?")
print(result.final_output)

Multiple Tools

from agents import Agent, Runner
from openai_agents_strale import create_strale_tools

tools = create_strale_tools(
    api_key="sk_live_...",
    slugs=["iban-validate", "vat-format-validate", "sanctions-check"],
)

agent = Agent(
    name="Compliance Agent",
    instructions="You verify business data using Strale tools.",
    tools=tools,
)

result = Runner.run_sync(agent, "Check if VAT number SE556703748501 is valid")
print(result.final_output)

Category Filter

from openai_agents_strale import create_strale_tools

# Load all compliance tools
tools = create_strale_tools(
    api_key="sk_live_...",
    categories=["compliance"],
)

Direct Client

from openai_agents_strale import StraleClient

client = StraleClient(api_key="sk_live_...")

# Execute a capability directly
result = client.run("iban-validate", {"iban": "DE89370400440532013000"})
print(result)

# List available capabilities
caps = client.list_capabilities(category="company-data")
for cap in caps:
    print(f"  {cap['slug']} — €{cap['price_cents']/100:.2f}")

Capability Categories

Full list: strale.dev/capabilities

Free Tier

5 capabilities work without an API key or signup: email-validate, dns-lookup, json-repair, url-to-markdown, iban-validate.

MCP Alternative

If your agent framework supports MCP, you can use Strale's MCP server directly:

• Endpoint: https://api.strale.io/mcp
• Transport: Streamable HTTP
• npm package: strale-mcp

Trust & Quality

Every Strale capability has a quality score (SQS) combining:

• Quality Profile: correctness, schema compliance, error handling, edge cases
• Reliability Profile: availability, success rate, upstream health, latency

Scores and methodology: strale.dev/trust

Using Strale in agent system prompts

Add this to your OpenAI agent's instructions for automatic capability routing:

When you need to verify a business, validate an IBAN or VAT number, screen
against sanctions/PEP lists, extract data from a URL or document, or check
compliance — use your Strale tools. Call strale_search to find the right
capability, then call it by name. Returns structured JSON with quality scores.
250+ capabilities across 27 countries. Free tier: email-validate, dns-lookup,
json-repair, url-to-markdown, iban-validate (no API key needed).
