## About Archive.org with LuumenAI

Connect Archive.org and the agent can search the collection, pull item metadata, check Wayback captures, read view counts and referrers, and inspect IIIF images. Reads come back right away. Changes to item files, metadata, derivation, and your own reviews are previewed and sent for approval first. Luumen authenticates with an API key.

## Example tools

Read-only (19 in total):

- `ARCHIVE_ORG_ADVANCED_SEARCH_ITEMS` — Search Archive.org metadata with exact Advanced Search page semantics.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_CHECK_IDENTIFIER_AVAILABILITY` — Check whether an Archive.org item identifier is available before attempting to create an item.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_CHECK_UPLOAD_LIMIT` — Check whether Archive.org's ingest queue is likely to accept an upload or delete, using only the connection's LOW Authorization header.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_DOWNLOAD_ITEM_FILE` — Download one public file from an Archive.org item and return a temporary downloadable file reference.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_FIND_WAYBACK_SNAPSHOTS` — Find the closest archived Wayback Machine snapshot for each requested URL, using one before, after, or either direction for the batch.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_GET_CONNECTED_USER` — Return the authenticated Archive.org user's identity and privileges without returning either IA-S3 credential.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_GET_DETAILED_VIEWS` — Get bounded geographic view analytics and, for items, top referrers over a recent window or date range.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_GET_IIIF_IMAGE_INFO` — Get normalized IIIF Image API capabilities through Archive.org's fixed-host single-image convenience route or a live-proven versioned file route.

Write and destructive (7 in total, approval required by default):

- `ARCHIVE_ORG_COPY_ITEM_FILE` — Copy one Archive.org file server-side to a named path in an existing destination item.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_DELETE_ITEM_FILE` — Submit asynchronous deletion of one named file from an Archive.org item through IA-S3.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_DELETE_MY_REVIEW` — Permanently delete the connected Archive.org user's public review from one item.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_DERIVE_ITEM` — Queue Archive.org's fixed derive.php task for an item owned or editable by the connected account.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_UPDATE_ITEM_METADATA` — Apply JSON Patch changes to one Archive.org item owned or editable by the connected account, limited to ordinary item metadata and metadata records for named files.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_UPLOAD_ITEM_FILE` — Create or replace one file through Archive.org IA-S3, explicitly choosing a new-item or existing-item upload.
- `ARCHIVE_ORG_UPSERT_MY_REVIEW` — Create or overwrite the connected Archive.org user's single public review for an eligible item.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to Archive.org?

Authorize once with API token. Luumen lists the scopes each action needs before you approve the connection, and credentials never appear in the chat.

### Can LuumenAI change things in Archive.org on its own?

Read actions answer immediately. Anything that writes is shown as a plan and requires approval by default, including the 4 actions classified as destructive. Administrators configure that per tool.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to Archive.org — read or write, approved or declined — is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
