About this plugin

Want to look up Metropolitan Museum of Art collections right inside a chat without switching tabs or paging through web results? xby-the-met wraps the Met Museum open collection API into a set of natural-language skills, making it as easy as a conversation to search and browse artworks.

Four core capabilities cover the workflow: set and persist an API key in-chat (no re-entry after restart), list every department in the museum, search objects by keyword with paginated ID results, and fetch full metadata for any object by its ID. The design is lightweight and requires no extra services -- it works out of the box.

It suits art researchers, curatorial assistants, educators, or anyone who wants to plug open cultural data into a DeepSeek Harness pipeline. Ask for an object ID, then drill into its details -- all without ever leaving the chat window.

Use Cases

  • Search Met Museum objects by keyword and get paginated ID results
  • Fetch full metadata for a specific object by its ID
  • Browse all departments to locate a specific collection area

Best For

  • Art researchers who need to reference museum collection data
  • Developers plugging open cultural data into DSH workflows
  • Educators or curatorial assistants browsing collections in-chat
