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).

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false. Description adds that it returns top-N results with schemas and that results are ready to call directly, no second schema lookup needed. This is valuable beyond annotations, though it doesn't detail rate limits or potential side effects (none expected).

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?

Description is two sentences; front-loaded with purpose. While the second sentence is somewhat lengthy, it packs essential information without fluff. Could be slightly more condensed but still efficient.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given no output schema, description explains return format (names, descriptions, schemas, examples) and usage pattern. All parameters documented. Adequate for a discovery tool, though missing explicit mention of pagination or result count limits beyond schema.

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%, so schema already documents all 6 parameters with descriptions. Description repeats alias info already in schema. No additional semantic depth beyond what schema provides, so baseline of 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?

Description clearly states it is a tool discovery/search function with specific verb 'Find tools' and enumerates many domains. Clearly distinguishes from siblings which are specific data tools; this is a meta-tool for navigation.

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: 'Use when you need to browse, search, look up, or discover what tools exist for...' and 'Call this FIRST when you have many tools available'. Provides clear context and exclusionary guidance.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation1/5

Several tools are nearly indistinguishable, particularly ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded, plus a cluster of overlapping Polymarket tools. The three OTX-specific tools are buried among 31 unrelated utilities, making correct selection highly error-prone.

Naming Consistency3/5

Tool names are consistently snake_case and mostly readable, but the pattern is mixed: imperative verbs like ask_, get_, lookup_, and validate_ coexist with noun-first names like entity_profile, polymarket_edges, and recent_alerts. It is not chaotic, but the style is not predictable enough for a 5.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is excessive for a server purportedly about Alienvault OTX, with only 3 tools actually serving that domain. The bulk are unrelated data-retrieval, prediction-market, memory, and utility tools, making the set feel unfocused and overstuffed.

Completeness1/5

For a server named Alienvault OTX, the surface is severely incomplete: search_pulses, get_pulse, and lookup_indicator cover only basic threat-intel lookup. There is no coverage of OTX events, malware details, passive DNS, indicator enrichment, or OTX subscription workflows, while most of the 34 tools address entirely different domains.
