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).

A4.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=true. The description adds value by explaining that results are 'ready to call directly' and include full schemas with examples, which is useful behavioral context beyond the annotations.

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 with the core purpose and packed with specific domain examples, but is slightly verbose. Every sentence adds value, however it could be tightened slightly without losing information.

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 having no output schema, the description fully explains what the tool returns (top-N most relevant tools with names, descriptions, full input schemas). Combined with clear usage guidance and parameter semantics, the description is completely informative for an AI agent.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% and each parameter is described, but the description adds value by explaining that multiple aliases (q, task, search, description) all map to the same query parameter and provides concrete example queries.

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 uses a specific verb-noun pair ('Find tools by describing the data or task') and enumerates numerous example domains, distinguishing this from sibling tools which are more specific search or analysis tools.

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 states 'Call this FIRST when you have many tools available and want to see the option set (not just one answer),' providing clear when-to-use guidance and context relative to other tools.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly identical right now, creating a true duplicate entry point, and the prediction-market cluster (bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, polymarket_kalshi_spread) all detect mispricings with heavily overlapping descriptions. The detailed docs help, but an agent choosing among these will frequently misselect.

Naming Consistency3/5

The set mixes verb-first names (ask_pipeworx, compare_entities, discover_tools, subscribe) with noun-first names (polymarket_edges, entity_profile, ip_context, recent_changes) and bare verbs (remember, forget) without a unifying convention. Subfamilies are internally consistent (polymarket_*, ask_pipeworx_*, subscribe/unsubscribe), which keeps it readable, but there is no predictable server-wide pattern.

Tool Count2/5

32 tools is well into the too-many band, and several tools duplicate or wrap others: ask_pipeworx_beta is a redundant copy of ask_pipeworx, scan_competitor_ai_presence wraps ai_visibility_check, and bet_research overlaps polymarket_edges/arbitrage. The broad scope justifies a large set, but it would be tighter and clearer around 20-24 tools.

Completeness4/5

For the domain the descriptions actually define (structured-data research, company intelligence, prediction markets, subscriptions, memory), coverage is strong with few dead ends: subscription and memory lifecycles are complete, and research has routing/grounded/deep modes. However, the server is named Greynoise while only ip_context serves that domain, and side tools like generate_llms_txt and scan_dependency sit outside any core workflow.
