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.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations declare safety and idempotency; description adds critical behavioral details: partial failures degrade gracefully, bundlephobia first measurement takes 5-30s, sources_failed lists timed-out sources.

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?

Well-structured, front-loaded, but slightly verbose; each clause adds value.

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 all return fields (summary block, advisory details, links, alternatives) and covers edge cases (partial failures, timing).

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 already covers both parameters with descriptions; description adds useful context: scoped packages accepted, default version when omitted.

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?

Clearly states tool does npm package safety/popularity/size check via deps.dev and bundlephobia, contrasting with other tools for different ecosystems.

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 tells when to use ('is X safe/popular/small', 'cost of adding lodash') and where not (other ecosystems go to deps.dev:version directly).

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
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have distinct purposes, e.g., Amazon and Walmart tools are platform-specific. A few overlapping tools like ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research are differentiated by clear usage guidance, so an agent can disambiguate with reasonable effort.

Naming Consistency3/5

Tool names mix verbs and nouns with varying styles (e.g., ai_visibility_check, compare_entities, scan_competitor_ai_presence). There is no uniform pattern like verb_noun; some are descriptive phrases. The inconsistency is noticeable but not chaotic.

Tool Count2/5

36 tools is too many for a server named 'Traject Ecommerce', as many tools cover unrelated domains (Polymarket, npm packages, SEC filings). The scope is excessively broad, making the server feel like a general-purpose plugin rather than a focused ecommerce toolset.

Completeness2/5

For an ecommerce-focused server, it only covers Amazon and Walmart product/search/reviews, missing major platforms and backend operations. The broader tool set is detailed but not ecommerce-specific, leaving obvious gaps for the intended purpose.
