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.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, open-world, idempotent, non-destructive behavior. The description goes further by explaining partial failure handling and potential 5-30s delay on first bundlephobia measurement, with sources_failed field if timeout occurs. No contradictions.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is well-structured with front-loaded purpose, clear usage guidelines, and detailed behavioral notes. Every sentence serves a purpose without redundancy.

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 thoroughly explains the return format (summary block, per-advisory detail, links, alternative versions) and ecosystem limitations. It covers partial failures and timing, making the tool's behavior fully predictable.

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 description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds minimal parameter info beyond the schema (e.g., scoped packages accepted, default version behavior), but this is already present in schema descriptions. The description does not significantly enhance understanding of parameters.

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 that the tool performs a composite check for adding an npm package, combining deps.dev and bundlephobia data. It uses a specific verb-resource ('should I add this npm package' check) and distinguishes from sibling tools by highlighting its composite nature.

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?

The description explicitly tells when to use this tool: when an agent asks about safety, popularity, size, or cost of adding a package. It also provides exclusions: NPM ecosystem only, and points to deps.dev:version for other ecosystems.

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

A4/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Many tools are clearly distinct, but the ask_pipeworx/ask_pipeworx_beta/ask_pipeworx_grounded trio are near-identical routers (beta currently matches stable exactly), and several prediction-market tools (bet_research, polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage) have overlapping use cases. Detailed descriptions mitigate but don't fully eliminate the risk of an agent picking the wrong member of a cluster.

Naming Consistency4/5

Names are consistently snake_case and mostly follow a verb_noun pattern (ask_pipeworx, compare_entities, resolve_entity, subscribe). Minor deviations like bare nouns (datasets, metadata) and bare verbs (remember, recall, forget), plus the branded ask_pipeworx variants, keep it from a perfect pattern but the style remains predictable.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is well above the 25+ threshold and feels heavy even for a broad research platform; many are meta/utility tools (pipeworx_feedback, pipeworx_trending, suggest_questions, discover_tools) tangential to the core data-access purpose. The server name suggests a small Baton Rouge Open Data server, making the actual count a poor match for that name.

Completeness4/5

Within its actual scope, coverage is strong: universal query, grounded mode, deep research, entity/comparison profiles, entity resolution, claim validation, prediction-market edge/arbitrage/fill-risk, memory, and subscriptions all have lifecycle-appropriate tool sets. Obvious gaps are hard to find; the main issue is that the set is over-inclusive rather than incomplete.
