Server Details

Bonhams MCP — realized auction prices from Bonhams.com.

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.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0

Scored across 38 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have distinct purposes, but there is overlap among the question-routing tools (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research) and among prediction-market tools (polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_fill_risk, etc.). Descriptions are verbose and explain differences, reducing misselection risk, but the meta-tools could still be confused.

Naming Consistency3/5

Names mix conventions: several use verb-noun (ask_pipeworx, compare_entities, scan_dependency, resolve_entity), while others are noun-noun or noun-only (entity_profile, company_facts, bonhams_lot_details, recall). Polymarket tools follow a consistent prefix, but overall there is no single pattern, making it harder to predict tool names.

Tool Count2/5

With 38 tools, the count is high, and most are unrelated to the server's stated name (Bonhams). The server appears to be a generic Pipeworx data platform masquerading as a Bonhams auction integration, so the count feels inappropriate for the apparent purpose. Only two tools actually serve Bonhams data, making the surface bloated and confusing.

Completeness2/5

For Bonhams-specific functionality, the surface is minimal: only search past results and get lot details. Missing common auction operations (upcoming lots, bidding, account actions, etc.). The broader Pipeworx tools cover many other domains, but that does not compensate for the lack of Bonhams coverage given the server's name.
