Server Details
BioPortal — NCBO's biomedical ontology repository (data.bioontology.org).
Glama couldn't complete the latest health check. If this server requires authentication, missing or expired test credentials may be the cause. A test profile lets Glama authenticate for health checks and discover tools; it is separate from your personal connections.
If you are the author, claim ownership, then add or update a test profile under Admin → Test Profile.

TDQS
Scored across 40 tools
Most tools have recognizable purposes, but several clusters overlap: ask_pipeworx/ask_pipeworx_beta/ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research/discover_tools/suggest_questions, and multiple Polymarket opportunity scanners. The very detailed descriptions explicitly steer selection, but meaningful misselection risk remains.
Every tool name uses snake_case, so the surface is superficially consistent. However, conventions vary between verb_noun (validate_claim), noun_phrase (entity_profile), bare verbs (forget), and domain-prefixed groups, so it is mostly rather than fully predictable.
40 tools is heavy by the rubric, and the apparent BioPortal scope is represented by only four tools. Even if each has a role in a larger aggregator surface, the count is too large for a coherent BioPortal-focused set.
For BioPortal, the surface covers basic ontology list/search/class/mappings but omits batch annotation, deeper hierarchy traversal, ontology metadata/download, and instance/property endpoints. Significant gaps remain for a terminology-service domain.
