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 declare readonly, open-world, idempotent, and non-destructive. The description adds significant behavioral details: composite call structure, potential 5-30s delay for bundlephobia first measurement, and graceful degradation with sources_failed list.

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 well-structured with a clear front-loaded purpose, but slightly verbose with details like the full field list and timing caveats. Could be tightened slightly without losing clarity.

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 enumerates the return value fields and explains partial failure behavior. All essential aspects are covered for an AI agent to understand what to expect.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, but the description adds meaningful context: explains that 'package' accepts scoped names like '@types/node', and that 'version' defaults to the latest published version when omitted. This clarifies default behavior beyond schema.

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 the tool performs a composite check for evaluating whether to add an npm package, combining data from deps.dev and bundlephobia. It specifies the exact output and distinguishes from sibling tools by noting ecosystem limitations.

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: when an agent asks about safety, popularity, size, or cost of adding a package. Also mentions when not to use (PyPI/Maven/etc. should use deps.dev directly) and handles partial failures gracefully.

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 clusters have unclear boundaries: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly identical today, with ask_pipeworx_grounded and deep_research routing through the same 5,756-tool catalog, and validate_claim falling into the same grounded pipeline. The five polymarket_* tools plus bet_research all target prediction-market opportunities with overlapping outputs (edge_pp vs gap_pp vs spread_pp), and compare_entities/entity_profile/recent_changes share the same SEC/XBRL/news fan-out. The verbose descriptions help, but the set itself would frequently misroute an agent.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are uniformly snake_case with no casing mixing, and the ask_pipeworx_*, polymarket_*, and pipeworx_* prefixes create recognizable families. However, the set mixes verb_noun names (validate_claim, list_subscriptions), bare verbs (query, recall, forget), and noun-phrase names (entity_profile, recent_alerts, datasets, metadata), so there is no single predictable pattern across the server.

Tool Count3/5

34 tools is heavy, but the server's scope is genuinely enormous: it is a gateway to 5,756 tools across 1,504 sources, plus prediction-market analysis, subscriptions, and memory. The count is defensible for that scope, yet several tools (generate_llms_txt, scan_dependency, ai_visibility_check, the memory trio) are peripheral to the core data mission, giving the set a scattershot feel and preventing a well-scoped rating.

Completeness4/5

The core data-research workflow is thoroughly covered: casual lookup (ask_pipeworx), grounded verification (ask_pipeworx_grounded, validate_claim), deep research (deep_research), entity resolution and profiling (resolve_entity, entity_profile, compare_entities, recent_changes), and a six-tool prediction-market suite. Subscriptions and memory have full lifecycles, and Oakland data offers search, schema, and query. Minor gaps exist — no subscription update/pause, no raw dataset export, and no write path for Oakland data — but no advertised workflow hits a dead end.
