Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## apify-actors Monorepo for Hermes-built, monetized Apify actors. One actor per directory. Shared code lives in [`lib/`](./lib/): `lib/src/transport.ts` (retry/session/backoff engine), `lib/src/ppe.ts` (pay-per-event metering invariants), `lib/golden/` (the declarative golden-set engine + runner — same vocabulary and message strings as the foundry cron's `golden_generic.py`; `tools/diff-golden-engines/` proves the two engines agree and must be re-run whenever either changes). **yahoo-finance and rdap-domain-lookup build on lib/ today; google-trends and google-news still carry pre-lib copies** (migrate with their next planned deploy). **Deploying a lib/-based actor:** its Docker context is the repo root, and `apify push` both refuses parent contexts and drops nested `.actor/` dirs from uploads — so always push through the wrapper: `tools/push-actor.sh ` (log into the intended account first; verify with `npx -y -p apify-cli apify info`). | Actor | Status | Spec | Store listing | |---|---|---|---| | [`google-trends/`](./google-trends/) | Live + monetized (PPE `keyword-result`) | [spec](./google-trends/SPEC.md) | [README](./google-trends/README.md) | | [`google-news/`](./google-news/) | Live + monetized (PPE `article-result`) | [spec](./google-news/SPEC.md) | [README](./google-news/README.md) | | [`yahoo-finance/`](./yahoo-finance/) | Live + monetized (PPE `ticker-result`), launched 2026-07-16 | [spec](./yahoo-finance/SPEC.md) | [README](./yahoo-finance/README.md) | | [`rdap-domain-lookup/`](./rdap-domain-lookup/) | Live public + monetized (PPE `domain-result`), launched 2026-07-16 | [spec](./rdap-domain-lookup/SPEC.md) | [README](./rdap-domain-lookup/README.md) | | [`ads-transparency/`](./ads-transparency/) | Spec approved, build started; on hold pending proxy-economics gate | — (spec in `hermes:workspace/plans/2026-07-16-ads-transparency-actor-pilot.md`) | — (no listing yet) | ### Provenance Built under the pilot plan `hermes:workspace/plans/2026-07-03-google-trends-actor-pilot.md`, which is the successor to the Apify demand probe (`2026-07-03-apify-demand-probe.md`). The Google Trends actor is a deliberate single-actor pilot testing two theses: (1) a reliable Google Trends actor can win users in a niche whose official incumbent fails 1 in 4 runs, and (2) a Hermes cron can detect degradation and ship repairs faster than a human maintainer. ### Accounts - **Publish / monetize:** Apify account `leorochasantos` (token `APIFY_API_TOKEN_BACKUP` in Hermes `.env`). Financial/monetization actions are Leo-only. - **Dev / probe:** account `jarbaspsantosbr` (`APIFY_API_KEY`). Used for on-platform test runs so the publish account's free credit stays clean. Tokens live only in Hermes `.env`; never commit them. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): Which endpoint to query. Price returns live prices for specific coins.
