What is Claude Tool Use?
Anthropic's Claude API with tool use for building AI assistants that can call external APIs and functions.
Searching Google Play Store with Claude Tool Use
This integration lets your Claude Tool Use agent search Google Play Store in real time via the Scavio API. The agent gets back structured JSON with app results, ratings, install counts, category rank — ready for reasoning and decision-making.
Setup
pip install anthropic requestsCode Example
Here is a complete Claude Tool Use agent that searches Google Play Store using Scavio:
import anthropic
import requests
import json
client = anthropic.Anthropic()
def scavio_search(query: str) -> str:
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={"x-api-key": "your_scavio_api_key", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
json={"query": query},
)
return json.dumps(response.json())
response = client.messages.create(
model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
max_tokens=4096,
tools=[{
"name": "scavio_search",
"description": "Search Google Play Store for real-time results",
"input_schema": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {"query": {"type": "string"}},
"required": ["query"],
},
}],
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "site:play.google.com habit tracker"}],
)
for block in response.content:
if block.type == "tool_use":
result = scavio_search(block.input["query"])
print(result[:500])
elif block.type == "text":
print(block.text)Full Working Example
A production-ready example with error handling:

"required": ["query"],
},
}]
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "site:play.google.com habit tracker"}]
response = client.messages.create(model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514", max_tokens=4096, tools=tools, messages=messages)
# Handle tool use loop
if response.stop_reason == "tool_use":
messages.append({"role": "assistant", "content": response.content})
tool_results = []
for block in response.content:
if block.type == "tool_use":

messages.append({"role": "user", "content": tool_results})
final = client.messages.create(model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514", max_tokens=4096, tools=tools, messages=messages)
print(final.content[0].text)Pricing
