Discover Tools

discover_tools
Read-onlyIdempotent

Find tools by describing the data or task. Use when you need to browse, search, look up, or discover what tools exist for: SEC filings, financials, revenue, profit, FDA drugs, adverse events, FRED economic data, Census demographics, BLS jobs/unemployment/inflation, ATTOM real estate, ClinicalTrials, USPTO patents, weather, news, crypto, stocks. Returns the top-N most relevant tools with names, descriptions, and full input schemas (with curated examples) — each result is ready to call directly, no second schema lookup needed. Call this FIRST when you have many tools available and want to see the option set (not just one answer).

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint) already indicate safe read-only behavior. The description adds valuable context: returns top-N tools with names, descriptions, and full input schemas with curated examples, and states 'each result is ready to call directly, no second schema lookup needed.' No contradiction.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is front-loaded and well-structured, but it's relatively long with a list of domains. Every sentence adds value, but it could be slightly more concise without losing clarity.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Despite no output schema, the description fully explains the return format (names, descriptions, schemas with examples) and parameters (limit, default/max). It covers all necessary context for a discovery tool.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% with detailed descriptions. The description adds meaning by explaining that query accepts natural language and lists aliases (task, q, description, search). Examples in the schema further clarify usage.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states 'Find tools by describing the data or task' and lists many specific domains (SEC filings, FDA, etc.). It distinguishes from siblings like deep_research or ask_pipeworx by explicitly being a discovery tool, not a task-execution tool.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly says 'Call this FIRST when you have many tools available and want to see the option set (not just one answer).' This provides clear when-to-use and implicit when-not-to-use guidance, making it easy for the agent to decide.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A4/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clearly distinct purposes, with a few overlapping pairs (e.g., ask_pipeworx vs ask_pipeworx_grounded, multiple polymarket tools) that could cause mild confusion, but descriptions adequately differentiate them.

Naming Consistency3/5

Tool names consistently use snake_case, but the verb_noun pattern is not consistently applied; some names are noun_noun (dallas_datasets, bet_research) or adjective_noun (ai_visibility_check), creating a mixed nomenclature.

Tool Count2/5

With 33 tools, the server exceeds the typical well-scoped range. While the broad data domain justifies many tools, the count feels heavy and would benefit from consolidation of related functions.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers a wide array of domains (company data, drugs, economics, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions) with only minor gaps (e.g., no direct web search tool, as ask_pipeworx mostly covers it). Overall, it is comprehensive for its purpose.
