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.

Input Schema

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond annotations (readOnly, openWorld, idempotent, non-destructive), description details behavioral traits: fans out to multiple sources, partial failures degrade gracefully, bundlephobia first measurement can take 5-30s, and failed sources are listed. This adds essential context not in structured data.

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 dense paragraph that packs a lot of information efficiently. It is mostly front-loaded with the composite nature. Could benefit from minor structuring (e.g., bullet points) for easier scanning, but current form is acceptable.

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?

Despite no output schema, the description fully explains return components (summary, per-advisory, links, alternatives) and handles edge cases (partial failures, timeouts). For a 2-parameter tool, this is highly complete.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% with both parameters described. Description adds value by noting scoped packages are accepted and version defaults to latest, which is not in the schema. Slightly below 5 because the additional info is minor.

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 defines the tool as a composite check for npm package evaluation, covering license, advisories, bundle size, and more. It uniquely addresses 'is X safe/popular/small' queries, distinguishing it from sibling tools that serve other domains.

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 use cases ('is X safe / popular / small' or 'what does adding lodash cost me') and delimits scope: NPM ecosystem only in v1, with fallback to deps.dev for other ecosystems. Provides clear when-to-use guidance.

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
Disambiguation3/5

Several tools form tight families with overlapping purposes: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all handle research queries, and entity_profile/compare_entities/recent_changes aggregate overlapping data. The descriptions are thorough and do distinguish them, but an agent could easily select the wrong member of a family for a given query.

Naming Consistency3/5

Most tools use snake_case, but conventions vary: verb_noun (list_subscriptions, resolve_entity), domain-prefixed nouns (polymarket_arbitrage, coresignal_company), bare verbs (remember, forget, recall), and an ask_* family (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded). Patterns are predictable within clusters but there is no uniform server-wide convention.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is well beyond the comfortable range, and the server named 'Coresignal' carries only two Coresignal-branded tools while also hosting prediction-market analysis, memory utilities, npm dependency scanning, llms.txt generation, and feedback mechanisms. The breadth feels bloated even though the core research platform is substantial.

Completeness4/5

The research/QA domain is well covered: simple lookup, grounded verification, deep multi-source research, entity resolution and profiling, comparisons, claim validation, subscriptions, and memory. Meta-tools like discover_tools and suggest_questions help navigation. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no standalone bulk-download or export tool), but there are no obvious dead ends.
