## About Gender API with LuumenAI

Ask about a name and get an answer in the terminal. Gender API resolves likely gender from a first name, full name, or email address, one at a time or in batches, and GENDER_API_GET_COUNTRY_OF_ORIGIN adds likely countries of origin. GENDER_API_GET_STATISTIC shows remaining credits. Connects with an API key. All nine tools are read-only, so nothing here changes your data.

## Example tools

Read-only (9 in total):

- `GENDER_API_GET_COUNTRY_OF_ORIGIN` — Retrieve a name's likely countries of origin.
- `GENDER_API_GET_COUNTRY_OF_ORIGIN_V1` — Get the country of origin for a given first name using v1 API.
- `GENDER_API_GET_STATISTIC` — Retrieve account statistics from Gender-API, including remaining credits and usage details.
- `GENDER_API_QUERY_BY_EMAIL_ADDRESS` — Determine likely gender from an email address by extracting and analyzing the name portion.
- `GENDER_API_QUERY_BY_EMAIL_ADDRESS_MULTIPLE` — Determine likely gender for multiple email addresses in a single batch request.

- `GENDER_API_QUERY_BY_FULL_NAME` — Determine gender by splitting a full name.
- `GENDER_API_QUERY_GENDER_BY_FIRST_NAME_MULTIPLE` — Determine gender for multiple first names in a single batch request.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to Gender API?

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 Gender API on its own?

No. Every one of the 9 tools is read-only, so LuumenAI can answer questions from Gender API but cannot change anything in it.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to Gender API is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
