Scan Dependency

scan_dependency
Read-onlyIdempotent

Composite "should I add this npm package to my project" check in ONE call — fans out across deps.dev (license + advisories + version history) and bundlephobia (gzipped/minified bundle size, dependency count, ESM/tree-shake support). Use whenever an agent asks "is X safe / popular / small" or "what does adding lodash cost me". Returns a summary block (is_latest, license, published_at, advisory_count, bundle_kb_min, bundle_kb_gz, dependency_count, has_esm, tree_shakeable), per-advisory detail, links, and a list of recent alternative versions. NPM ecosystem only in v1; PyPI / Maven / Cargo / Go fall under deps.dev:version directly. Partial failures degrade gracefully — bundlephobia's first measurement on a new version can take 5-30s; sources_failed will list it if it times out, the rest still returns.

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already mark it read-only, open-world, idempotent, non-destructive. The description adds key behavioral traits beyond those: it fans out to two external services, returns a structured summary, degrades gracefully on partial failures, and notes that bundlephobia's first measurement can take 5-30s with a sources_failed field. This is rich context beyond 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 one dense paragraph but every sentence carries unique information: purpose, usage, return fields, ecosystem scope, and failure behavior. It is front-loaded and not verbose, though it could benefit from more structured formatting given the complexity.

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?

With no output schema, the description fully specifies the return structure (summary block fields, advisory detail, links, alternative versions) and important caveats (latency, partial failure, ecosystem scope). This is complete for an agent to decide when to call and how to interpret results.

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

Parameters3/5

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

The input schema already documents both parameters with 100% coverage, including scoped package support and default version behavior. The description does not add new parameter semantics beyond restating the composite nature; with high schema coverage, baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 it is a composite 'should I add this npm package' check that fans out across deps.dev and bundlephobia, with a specific scope (license, advisories, bundle size, tree-shaking). It distinguishes from siblings by naming the exact question it answers and the data sources.

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?

The description explicitly says 'Use whenever an agent asks "is X safe / popular / small" or "what does adding lodash cost me"' and provides a clear exclusion: 'NPM ecosystem only in v1; PyPI / Maven / Cargo / Go fall under deps.dev:version directly.' This gives direct when-to-use and when-not-to-use guidance.

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

B3/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

The tool set mixes multiple domains (Postmark email, Pipeworx data queries, Polymarket betting, memory utilities) with several overlapping tools. ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are essentially identical, send/send_batch and bounces/bounce are similar, and multiple polymarket analysis tools (polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, polymarket_edge_tracker) could be confused. Despite detailed descriptions, the sheer number of query and analysis tools increases the chance of misselection.

Naming Consistency3/5

All tool names use lowercase_with_underscores, so the casing is consistent. However, there is no uniform verb_noun pattern: some start with verbs (ask, send, bounce, resolve, validate), while others are noun phrases (server, bounces, recent_alerts, entity_profile). This mixed semantic structure makes it less predictable, but the names are still readable.

Tool Count2/5

41 tools is far above the typical well-scoped range of 3-15. The server combines multiple unrelated domains—email, data lookup, prediction markets, memory, and subscriptions—resulting in a heavyweight and unfocused surface. Most of the tools would be better split into separate, purpose-specific servers.

Completeness2/5

For a server named Postmark, the email side is incomplete: there is no update server configuration, message stream management, or inbound email handling. The Pipeworx data tools provide good read coverage but lack write/management operations for entities. The inclusion of unrelated tools makes the surface feel arbitrary rather than complete for any single domain.
