AI Visibility Check

ai_visibility_check
Read-onlyIdempotent

Probe one or more LLMs for what they know about a business / brand / product / topic and score visibility (0-100) per model. Default model is Workers AI Llama-3.3-70b (free); pass _apiKey to also probe Anthropic (BYO key — you pay Anthropic directly for those calls). Returns per-model {score, confidence, signals, raw_response} + a combined view. Useful for AI-marketing audits, pre-launch brand checks, competitive monitoring.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
entityYesThe thing to ask about. Brand/business name, product name, person, or topic. E.g. "Pipeworx", "OpenInvoice", "Acme Corp pricing".
modelsNoWhich models to probe. Supported: "workers-ai" (free default), "anthropic" (requires _apiKey). Omit for just workers-ai.
_apiKeyNoOptional Anthropic API key (sk-ant-...) — only needed if "anthropic" is in models. Passed straight through to api.anthropic.com.
contextNoOptional: a phrase locating the entity (e.g. "Boston restaurant", "B2B SaaS"). Helps disambiguate common names.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly/openWorld/idempotent, but the description adds meaningful behavioral context: the default free Workers AI model, the BYO-Key direct-billing mechanism for Anthropic, and the exact return shape (per-model {score, confidence, signals, raw_response} + combined view). This goes beyond the annotations and is genuinely helpful.

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?

Three sentences, front-loaded with the core action, then covering default model, key handling, return format, and use cases. Every sentence earns its place with no redundancy or fluff.

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 lacking an output schema, the description specifies the return payload structure and lists realistic use cases. It covers the key nuances (free vs BYO, multi-model probing) sufficiently for a read-only tool with 4 parameters. Minor unclarified terms like 'signals' do not hinder understanding.

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%, so baseline is 3. The description adds extra semantics by explaining that omitting `models` uses the free default and that `_apiKey` is only needed for Anthropic with direct cost implications, which is not fully captured in the schema. This added context justifies a 4.

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 opens with a specific verb+resource: 'Probe one or more LLMs for what they know about a business / brand / product / topic and score visibility (0-100) per model.' This clearly distinguishes it from sibling tools by focusing on AI visibility scoring for marketing audits and brand checks, not generic questions or deep research.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

It explicitly provides use cases ('AI-marketing audits, pre-launch brand checks, competitive monitoring') and explains when to use the optional Anthropic model and BYO key. It doesn't name alternatives or when-not-to-use, but the context is strong enough for an agent to select this tool appropriately.

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

Many tools have heavily overlapping purposes: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, discover_tools, and suggest_questions all serve lookup/discovery in similar ways, and the five polymarket_* tools plus bet_research blur together. The six genuinely GovInfo-specific tools are distinct, but an agent would struggle to pick between the numerous meta and market tools, especially when the server is supposed to be about government information.

Naming Consistency3/5

Most tools follow a readable verb_noun pattern (list_collections, search_packages, get_granule, resolve_entity), but there are deviations: domain-prefixed nouns like polymarket_arbitrage, noun-ish names like pipeworx_trending, and verb phrases like ask_pipeworx_beta or generate_llms_txt. Overall it is mixed yet still navigable, not chaotic.

Tool Count2/5

36 tools is excessive for a server named Govinfo: only about six tools (list_collections, search_packages, get_package, list_granules, get_granule, search_within) actually serve that domain, while the remaining ~30 are Pipeworx meta-tools, prediction-market helpers, memory utilities, and AI-visibility checks. The count is bloated relative to the apparent scope and dilutes the server's identity.

Completeness3/5

The core GovInfo workflow is present — list collections, search packages, fetch package metadata, list and fetch granules, and semantically search within fetched text. However, there is no tool that directly downloads or returns the full text/PDF/XML content of a package or granule; agents only get links, so a full-document workflow requires an external fetch. The unrelated tools do not fill that gap and instead distract from the domain.
