Search Photos

Tool to search for photos on Pexels. Use when you need to retrieve photos by a search term and optional filters. Call after confirming you have a valid Pexels API key. Response image URLs are nested under `photo.src.<size>` (e.g., `photo.src.original`, `photo.src.landscape`, `photo.src.medium`); the top-level `url` field is not sufficient for accessing specific image sizes.

Search Videos

Tool to search for videos on Pexels by query and optional filters. Use when you need to find relevant video assets. Combining multiple filters with a narrow query may return few or no results; only apply strict filter combinations when explicitly required.
