Connecticut Open Data

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.

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, non-destructive behavior. Description adds transparency by detailing the composite fan-out, specific return fields, partial failure handling, and bundlephobia's initial measurement delay. No contradictions with annotations.

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?

Single dense paragraph that front-loads the main purpose, then efficiently adds details like return fields, limitations, and ecosystem scope. Every sentence contributes meaningful information 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, description enumerates return fields including summary block contents, per-advisory detail, links, and alternative versions. Covers external dependencies, timing caveat, and partial failure mechanism. Complete for the tool's complexity.

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?

Input schema has 100% coverage with clear descriptions. Description adds value by confirming scoped packages are accepted and version defaults to latest, slightly extending schema semantics.

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 the tool performs a composite npm package assessment across deps.dev and bundlephobia, with specific verb 'check'. It distinguishes from siblings by explicitly noting ecosystem scope and alternative tools for non-NPM packages.

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: 'whenever an agent asks is X safe / popular / small or what does adding lodash cost me'. Also provides context on partial failures, timeout expectations, and fallback 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.

A3.5/5.0
Disambiguation1/5

Multiple tools (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research) have overlapping research purposes. Additionally, many Polymarket and Pipeworx-specific tools are unrelated to the Connecticut Open Data server name, causing confusion.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming is highly inconsistent: some use snake_case (ask_pipeworx, resolve_entity), others use longer descriptive phrases (polymarket_fill_risk, scan_competitor_ai_presence), with no clear pattern.

Tool Count1/5

The server claims to be about Connecticut Open Data but includes 34 tools, only 3 of which (datasets, metadata, query) are relevant. The vast majority are unrelated Pipeworx/Prediction Market tools, making the size inappropriate.

Completeness1/5

For Connecticut Open Data coverage, only basic dataset search, metadata, and query tools exist. Missing common operations like data upload, schema modification, or API key management for the open data portal.
