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?

Description adds value beyond annotations: explains partial failures, slow bundlephobia first measurement (5-30s), and graceful degradation with sources_failed. Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and no destructiveness.

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?

Single paragraph, dense but well-organized. Front-loaded purpose and data sources. Could be slightly more structured, but no wasted words.

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?

No output schema, but description fully enumerates return fields (summary block, per-advisory detail, links, alternative versions) and explains failure modes. Holistically covers what the agent needs to know.

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%, but description adds practical context: scoped packages accepted for 'package', version defaults to latest. Slightly above baseline.

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 identifies the verb ('composite check'), resource (npm package), and data sources (deps.dev and bundlephobia). Distinguishes from siblings by noting NPM-only scope and directing other ecosystems to deps.dev:version.

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 ('is X safe / popular / small' or 'what does adding lodash cost me') and when not (non-NPM ecosystems). Provides alternative ('deps.dev:version directly'), meeting the highest standard.

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
Disambiguation2/5

Several tool boundaries blur: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all serve overlapping query/research entry points, and ask_pipeworx_beta is currently identical to ask_pipeworx by the server's own description. entity_profile, recent_changes, and compare_entities also cover overlapping company-investigation territory, forcing agents to parse long descriptions to avoid mis-selection.

Naming Consistency4/5

Names are uniformly snake_case and mostly follow a predictable verb-object or domain-prefix pattern (ask_pipeworx_*, polymarket_*, nola_*, subscribe/unsubscribe). Minor deviations like nola_datasets, polymarket_edges, and ai_visibility_check are noun-first rather than verb-first, but the overall convention is still readable and coherent.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is well above the 15-25 heavy range and includes multiple near-duplicate query modes, four closely related Polymarket analysis tools, and memory/subscription utilities layered on top of the core data-access surface. While the server appears to be a broad data platform, the count is bloated for an agent to navigate efficiently.

Completeness4/5

The tool surface is remarkably broad: discovery, single-answer lookup, grounded verification, deep research, entity resolution, entity profiles, comparisons, claim validation, NOLA querying, prediction-market analytics, memory, subscriptions, and feedback are all covered with few obvious dead ends. The main gap is that the NOLA-specific surface is thin relative to the server name, though nola_query plus nola_datasets provides a flexible escape hatch.
