Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| web_searchA | Search the web. Uses a keyed provider (Tavily/Brave/Google) when an API key is set, otherwise falls back to scraping Bing + DuckDuckGo. Returns titles, URLs, snippets and scores. |
| web_deep_searchA | Deep search: search Bing+DDG → fetch top pages → extract text → rerank chunks → return LLM-ready context. Slower but thorough. |
| web_readA | Fetch and extract text from a single URL. Returns extracted content (markdown). |
| web_extract_tablesB | Fetch a page, parse HTML tables, and return structured columns/rows with source URL provenance. |
| web_detect_downloadsB | Detect downloadable CSV/XLS/XLSX/PDF/JSON/XML links on a page. |
| web_parse_fileC | Download and parse CSV/TSV/XLSX/PDF/JSON files, returning structured rows or extracted text with provenance. |
| web_fetch_jsonB | Fetch an API/JSON URL directly and return parsed JSON with source URL provenance and persistent cache. |
| check_date_completenessC | Validate date-range completeness for structured results. Supports day, week, and month granularity. |
| classify_sourceC | Classify a source as official, aggregator, blog, forum, interactive, blocked, or error. |
| generate_search_queriesC | Generate specialized search queries using operators like site:, filetype:, API, CSV, and data-table variants. |
| resolve_unitsC | Resolve units, currencies, and currency pairs from text so incompatible rows can be rejected. |
| validate_unit_rowsC | Reject structured rows that are incompatible with the expected unit, currency, or currency pair. |
| evidence_entailmentB | Strict entailment check for claim vs source excerpt. Supports heuristic, Ollama judge, or auto fallback. |
| tool_spec_proposeB | Propose a controlled task-specific extraction recipe spec when generic tools cannot extract structured rows. |
| tool_code_generateC | Generate a safe starter extraction recipe function for the proposed spec. The result must still be validated before running. |
| tool_code_validateC | Statically validate task-specific extraction code against the safe recipe contract and allowlist. |
| tool_code_run_sandboxedC | Run validated extraction recipe code in a separate limited subprocess. Code must define extract(source_text, input_payload). |
| tool_promoteC | Save a validated extraction recipe as reusable memory after an optional smoke test. Does not edit the MCP server. |
| source_cache_getA | Read persistent source cache entry for a URL. |
| source_cache_putC | Write arbitrary parsed source payload into persistent source cache. |
| build_research_debug_reportC | Build a compact diagnostic report for a research run: queries, URLs, source quality, and verification gaps. |
| startup_health_checkB | Check optional parser, OCR, browser, and cache dependencies for this MCP server. |
| web_navigateB | Navigate the browser to a URL. |
| web_snapshotA | Capture the current page state: URL, title, accessibility tree with stable refs (@e1, @e2...), and visible text. Use this before clicking/typing. |
| web_clickA | Click an interactive element by its ref (e.g. @e3 from web_snapshot). |
| web_typeB | Type text into an input field by its ref. |
| web_extractA | Extract text from the page. refs: comma-separated @eN, or 'visible' for all visible text, or 'all' for full HTML. |
| web_scrollB | Scroll the page: up, down, top, bottom. |
| browser_extract_tablesC | Extract visible tables from the current browser page after navigation/interactions. |
| browser_set_date_rangeB | Best-effort browser date-range setter for interactive pages with date inputs. |
| browser_extract_tables_for_date_rangeB | Set date range in the current browser page, submit it, then extract visible tables. |
| web_archive_fetchA | Find the closest Wayback Machine snapshot of a URL (for dead or changed sources) and optionally read its text. |
| scholarly_searchB | Search specialized corpora missing from general web search: arXiv (scientific papers) or Wikipedia (encyclopedic). |
| web_search_recentC | Web search restricted to a recency window via DuckDuckGo's date filter (day/week/month/year). |
| corroborate_claimB | Triangulate a claim across multiple source excerpts; returns a corroboration verdict (corroborated/conflicting/single_source/...). |
| locate_claim_spanB | Locate the sentence(s) in a source that best support a claim, with character offsets and a containment score (span-level provenance). |
| recipe_registryB | Manage promoted extraction recipes: list, get, run, or delete saved recipes. |
| web_fetch_authenticatedB | Fetch a page that needs cookies or custom headers (logged-in or gated pages). |
| web_crawlA | Breadth-first crawl from a start URL, fetching and extracting each page. Stays on the start host by default. Capped at 50 pages. |
| export_datasetB | Write extracted rows to a consolidated file (csv | xlsx | json) and return the path. |
| reconcile_time_seriesC | Align several time series on a common key, compute deltas vs the first series, and flag missing keys and outliers. |
| web_screenshotC | Capture a PNG screenshot of the current browser page, save it to disk, and optionally OCR text locked inside the image. |
