Identify anime from a screenshot with trace.moe, the anime scene search engine. Give it a frame and it names the show, the episode and the second it appears, with a still and a clip of the scene. Search everything indexed, or search inside one anime when you know the show but not the episode, and look a title up to get its AniList and MyAnimeList ids. Because the service always answers with its closest frames even when none is right, every search says how confident the match is so a workflow can act on a real one and stop at a coincidence. Previews can be saved as files before their links expire, and the remaining search quota can be checked without spending any of it. Works with no API key; adding one from a sponsor account raises the daily limit.

Steps your workflow can run in trace.moe.

Find the anime from an imageIdentify which anime a screenshot came from, which episode, and the exact moment it appears, by searching every frame trace.moe has indexed. Returns the title, the episode, the timestamp and links to a still and a clip of the scene. trace.moe always answers with its closest frames even when none of them is right, so the answer carries 'is_confident' for the 90% mark the service treats as the line between a match and a coincidence. Works without an API key.
Find a scene in one animeAnswer 'which episode is this from?' when the show is already known: search only inside one anime, named by title or by AniList id. Restricting the search is what makes the similarity meaningful, because the answer is the closest frame in that show rather than the closest frame in every show. A title is looked up first, and the anime that was settled on comes back with the match. No API key required.
Look up an anime by titleTurn a title, a synonym or a rough spelling into one anime: its AniList and MyAnimeList ids, every title variant, and links to both catalogue pages. Use it to check a name before searching inside that anime, or to get the ids for another step. No API key required.
Save a scene previewDownload the still or the clip of a matched scene and keep it as a file. The links a search returns are signed and stop working after five minutes, so a workflow that searches now and posts later posts dead links; this saves the scene while the link is alive. Run it in the same workflow as the search that produced the link. No API key required.
Check the search quotaSee how many searches are left before spending one. Asking costs nothing against the quota, so put it in front of a batch: a run that would stop halfway through can decide not to start. Also reports how many searches may run at once and, optionally, a breakdown of recent usage. No API key required.
Check service statusCheck whether trace.moe is answering, how quickly, and how much anime it currently has indexed. This is the one action that reports a problem as a value instead of failing the step, so a scheduled workflow can tell an outage from an empty answer. Being asked to slow down is reported separately from being down. No API key required.
