Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
find_issuesA

Find beginner-friendly open source issues ranked by likelihood of success.

Searches GitHub for "good first issue" labelled issues, scores each by
repo health + freshness + clarity + merge friendliness + setup ease,
and returns the top results.

Args:
    language: Programming language (e.g. "python", "typescript").
    min_stars: Minimum repo stars. Default 50.
    max_stars: Maximum repo stars. Default 50000.
    labels: Issue labels to require. Default ["good first issue"].
    max_results: How many results (1-25).
    sort_by: "beginner_score" | "freshness" | "repo_health".
    topic: Optional GitHub topic filter ("web", "cli", "data-science", ...).
    unassigned_only: When True (default), excludes issues that already
        have an assignee. Set False to widen the search when narrow
        language/label/stars combos return zero hits.
check_repo_healthB

Analyse a repository's contributor-friendliness.

Args:
    repo: Full repo name, e.g. "fastapi/fastapi".
check_issue_statusA

Check whether a specific GitHub issue is actually available to work on.

Args:
    issue_url: Full GitHub issue URL.
get_contribution_guideA

Pull and summarise a repo's contribution guide + setup instructions.

TDQS

A4/5.0

Scored across 4 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a distinct task: repo health analysis, issue availability check, contribution guide retrieval, and issue search. There is no ambiguity or overlap between their purposes.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (check_, check_, get_, find_), making the API predictable and easy to navigate.

Tool Count5/5

With 4 tools, the server is well-scoped for its specialized purpose of scouting good first issues. Each tool serves a clear role and no tool feels superfluous or missing for the core workflow.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers the key workflow: finding candidate issues, checking repo health, verifying issue availability, and getting setup guidance. A minor gap is lack of direct issue content retrieval, but the existing tools enable a complete scouting flow.
