## About Vast.ai with LuumenAI

Ask what GPU capacity is actually rentable right now, at what price, and in which region. Luumen reads Vast.ai with an API key and answers in place: VAST_AI_SEARCH_GPU_OFFERS for machines, VAST_AI_SEARCH_VOLUME_OFFERS for storage, VAST_AI_SEARCH_TEMPLATES for launch templates. Read-only, so nothing changes in your account.

## Example tools

Read-only (3 in total):

- `VAST_AI_SEARCH_GPU_OFFERS` — Find currently rentable Vast.ai GPU compute offers using verified marketplace filters.
- `VAST_AI_SEARCH_TEMPLATES` — Search Vast.ai launch templates by safe identifying metadata.
- `VAST_AI_SEARCH_VOLUME_OFFERS` — Find Vast.ai storage volume offers available in the marketplace.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to Vast.ai?

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 Vast.ai on its own?

No. Every one of the 3 tools is read-only, so LuumenAI can answer questions from Vast.ai but cannot change anything in it. Read actions still follow the configured access and approval policy.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to Vast.ai is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
