Give your agent this line. It reads SKILL.md, gets a Fous API key and connects the Fous MCP server. Its run then takes the method audible.com/get_audiobook with the inputs above.
Ask your agent
- Who narrates The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, and how many hours long is the audiobook?
- Is Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros included in the Audible Plus Catalog in the United Kingdom store?
- Pull the price, rating and series info for this listing: https://www.audible.com/pd/Dune-Audiobook/B002V1OF70
- I'm thinking about the audiobook of Educated by Tara Westover — what's the release date, publisher summary and number of ratings in the Canadian store?
- On audible.com.au, what does the Atomic Habits audiobook cost and which book number is it if it's part of a series? Also give me the ASIN.
