# Send Ohio State API to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### Option A: Direct HTTP fetch (quickest)

Use the bundled fetch helper to pull JSON from OSU Content APIs.

Fetch by full URL:

node ohio-state-api/scripts/osu-fetch.mjs https://content.osu.edu/v2/api/v1/dining/locations


Fetch by service + path:

node ohio-state-api/scripts/osu-fetch.mjs --service dining --path /locations

Note: --path can be passed with or without a leading / (both work).

If the response is large, add --extract <dot.path> (e.g. --extract data) to print only a subtree.

### Option A2: curl (no Node required)

If you just want raw JSON and have curl available, reference ohio-state-api/references/OSU_API.md:

Full URL:

curl -sS -H 'accept: application/json' 'https://content.osu.edu/v2/api/v1/dining/locations'


With query params:

curl -sS -H 'accept: application/json' 'https://content.osu.edu/v2/classes/search?q=cse&p=1'

Optional: pipe to jq for readability:

curl -sS -H 'accept: application/json' 'https://content.osu.edu/v2/api/v1/dining/locations' | jq .

### Option B: MCP server (best for MCP-compatible clients)

This skill bundles the original MCP server under ohio-state-api/mcp-server/.

Build it:

cd ohio-state-api/mcp-server && npm install && npm run build

Then configure your MCP client to run:

command: node
args: ["/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/ohio-state-api/mcp-server/build/index.js"]

After it’s running, use tools like:

get_bus_routes, get_bus_vehicles
get_buildings, search_buildings, get_building_details
get_dining_locations, get_dining_menu
get_campus_events, get_events_by_date_range
search_classes
get_parking_availability

(See ohio-state-api/mcp-server/README.md and the tool definitions in ohio-state-api/mcp-server/src/ for the full list.)

### Recommended workflow for “get OSU data” requests

Identify the service area (dining, bus, buildings, events, etc.).
Prefer a list/search endpoint first, then follow IDs into detail endpoints.
For time-based data, always include both:

the query window (absolute dates/times), and
the retrieval timestamp.


When returning data to a user, summarize key fields and attach the raw JSON as an artifact when possible.

### Common base URLs (public)

These are used by the bundled MCP server and work with osu-fetch.mjs:

Athletics: https://content.osu.edu/v3/athletics
Bus: https://content.osu.edu/v2/bus
Buildings: https://content.osu.edu/v2/api
Calendar: https://content.osu.edu/v2/calendar
Classes: https://content.osu.edu/v2/classes
Dining: https://content.osu.edu/v2/api/v1/dining
Directory: https://content.osu.edu
Events: https://content.osu.edu/v2
Food trucks: https://content.osu.edu/v2/foodtruck
Library: https://content.osu.edu/v2/library
Merchants: https://content.osu.edu/v2
Parking: https://content.osu.edu/v2/parking/garages
Rec sports: https://content.osu.edu/v3
Student orgs: https://content.osu.edu/v2/student-org

### Examples (copy/paste)

Dining locations:

curl -sS -H 'accept: application/json' 'https://content.osu.edu/v2/api/v1/dining/locations'


Parking availability:

curl -sS -H 'accept: application/json' 'https://content.osu.edu/v2/parking/garages/availability'


Buildings “search” (filter client-side with jq):

curl -sS -H 'accept: application/json' 'https://content.osu.edu/v2/api/buildings' | jq -r '.data.buildings[] | select((.name // \\"\\") | test(\\"union\\";\\"i\\")) | \\"\\\\(.buildingNumber)\\\\t\\\\(.name)\\"'
