Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| scan_newsA | Scan the latest articles across Bangladeshi newspapers, newest first. Pass
|
| compare_coverageB | See which newspapers are covering a topic right now, and how they frame it. Groups current matching headlines by paper — useful for spotting who is running a story, who is ignoring it, and how the angle differs. |
| deep_searchA | Search Prothom Alo's full archive — hundreds of thousands of articles. Only Prothom Alo exposes a searchable API, so this covers that paper alone. For current coverage across every paper, use scan_news instead. |
| list_sourcesA | List the newspapers this radar covers, and which are deliberately excluded. |

scan_news and compare_coverage both deal with current coverage, but one returns article lists while the other groups coverage by newspaper, so their purposes are distinct. deep_search and list_sources are clearly separate. The only minor ambiguity is whether a user wants raw articles or comparative framing.
Most tool names follow a verb_noun snake_case pattern: scan_news, compare_coverage, list_sources. deep_search is a minor stylistic deviation but is still readable and uses the same lowercase underscore convention. Overall the naming is predictable and consistent enough for an agent.
Four tools is well-scoped for a news monitoring server: current scanning, cross-paper comparison, deep archive search, and source listing. Each tool earns its place and there is no redundant or decorative surface area.
The core workflows of monitoring, comparing, and searching coverage are covered. The main gap is the lack of a tool to fetch full article content or retrieve a specific article by ID, but this is workable given the headline/summary focus of the server.
