Use it from your agent

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 zippopotam.us/get_postal_code with the inputs above.

Ask your agent

  • Estimates domestic USPS Post Office retail postage between two ZIP Codes for a letter, large envelope, package or flat-rate packaging, by weight and mailing date. Media Mail is left out; a zero-weight letter counts as one ounce. Prices are retail, cheapest first, with each service's estimated delivery.
