A prompt for your agent that names this source and how to call it through the crw MCP.
One Nobel Laureate
Use Nobel Prize API (nobelprize) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "One Nobel Laureate" (laureate). You already hold a laureate id from the list endpoint and need that person's or organisation's full record. Example options: id=1044. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "nobelprize" and capability "laureate". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

Use Nobel Prize API (nobelprize) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Nobel Laureates" (laureates).
