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 indicate safe read operation. Description adds significant behavioral details: partial failures degrade gracefully, bundlephobia first measurement can take 5-30 seconds, sources_failed will list timeouts, and return structure is fully described.

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 a single paragraph but front-loads the purpose with a clear summary. It is comprehensive yet efficient, including return structure, ecosystem notes, and error handling without excessive verbosity.

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?

Given no output schema, the description thoroughly explains return values: summary block fields, per-advisory details, links, and alternative versions. Also covers partial failures and timing, making the behavior fully transparent.

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?

Schema coverage is 100% for both parameters. Description confirms default behavior for version and accepts scoped packages, but adds no new information beyond what the schema already provides.

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's a composite check for npm packages, combining deps.dev and bundlephobia information. It specifies the verb 'scan' and resource 'dependency', and distinguishes from sibling tools by focusing on package health metrics.

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 when to use: when an agent asks about package safety, popularity, size, or cost. Also provides ecosystem limitation (npm only) and directs to deps.dev:version for other ecosystems, giving clear guidance on alternatives.

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

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools have near-identical purposes: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly described as functionally identical, and six Polymarket tools (bet_research, polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_fill_risk, polymarket_kalshi_spread, polymarket_edge_tracker) overlap heavily in discovery, edge, and arbitrage roles. Company-research tools (entity_profile, compare_entities, recent_changes) also blur boundaries, making misselection likely.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names use lowercase snake_case with underscores, which is a consistent base convention. However, the lexical pattern varies: bare single words (current, forecast, remember, forget) coexist with verb_noun compounds (resolve_entity, validate_claim) and noun compounds (entity_profile, polymarket_edges). The lack of a uniform verb_noun structure makes the set less predictable, though still readable.

Tool Count1/5

35 tools is well into the 'too many' range, and the server's name promises weather while only 4 of 35 tools (current, forecast, astronomy, marine) are weather-related — an extreme mismatch between the declared purpose and the actual surface. The remaining 31 tools form a general data/prediction-market platform that would be better served under a different server name.

Completeness4/5

Judged by its actual (non-weather) domain, the set is quite complete: generic routed lookup, grounded answer mode, deep research, entity resolution/profile/comparison, claim validation, subscriptions, memory, discovery, and feedback are all present. The weather subset covers current conditions, forecasts, marine, and astronomy, though it lacks historical weather and alert endpoints — a minor gap.
