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.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the readOnly/idempotent/destructive annotations, the description discloses composite fan-out behavior, partial failure degradation, a 5-30s latency for bundlephobia's first measurement, and the sources_failed field. This is rich, non-obvious behavioral context that annotations alone do not provide.

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?

The description is compact yet dense; each sentence adds a distinct value: what it does, when to use, what it returns, ecosystem limits, and failure behavior. It is front-loaded with the purpose and uses structured punctuation (dashes, parentheses) to manage length without wasting 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?

For a composite tool with no output schema, the description is exceptionally complete: it covers the summary block fields, per-advisory details, links, alternative versions, ecosystem scope, and graceful degradation with timeout behavior. Given the tool's complexity, this is more than sufficient for an agent to select and invoke it correctly.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, and the schema already describes both the package and version parameters. The description adds return-field context (is_latest, version history) but does not meaningfully clarify parameter semantics beyond what the schema provides. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 is a composite npm package health check that fans out to deps.dev and bundlephobia. It specifies the exact resources (license, advisories, bundle size, tree-shaking) and distinguishes itself from sibling tools by noting the 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?

Provides explicit trigger phrases ('is X safe / popular / small', 'what does adding lodash cost me') and an explicit exclusion with an alternative: 'NPM ecosystem only in v1; PyPI / Maven / Cargo / Go fall under deps.dev:version directly.' This is clear when-to-use and when-not-to-use guidance.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Multiple tool clusters overlap heavily: three ask_pipeworx variants, five polymarket_* tools, and two AI-visibility tools (ai_visibility_check vs scan_competitor_ai_presence) could easily be misselected. While descriptions are detailed, the boundaries between search/research/bet/compare tools are blurry enough to cause agent confusion.

Naming Consistency4/5

Tool names follow a consistent lowercase snake_case pattern, and most use a verb-first or noun-based descriptive style (ask_pipeworx, bet_research, entity_profile, validate_claim). Minor deviations like deep_research or process_v2 are absent here; the set is largely predictable and readable.

Tool Count2/5

At 32 tools, the server exceeds the 25-tool threshold for heaviness. Many tools are edge-case variants or meta-features (pipeworx_feedback, pipeworx_trending, suggest_questions) that could be consolidated. The server's stated identity as 'Victorian Complaint' also clashes with this scale, making the count feel excessive for the apparent core purpose.

Completeness4/5

The tool set provides broad coverage for data research, entity resolution, comparison, memory, subscriptions, and prediction-market analysis. It supports query, research, discover, validate, and monitor workflows with few dead ends. Minor gaps like a generic 'get_entity' or direct data-writing tools exist, but they are not core to the implied domain.
