Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
cancel_crawlA

Cancel a running or pending crawl job by job ID. Has no effect on jobs already in a terminal state.

crawl_siteA

Start a background crawl for a configured site. Returns immediately with a job ID.

describe_serverA

Returns server identity, configured sites, and recent crawl jobs in one call. Call this first to orient yourself: it consolidates what would otherwise require list_sites plus several get_job_status calls. The MCP tool list is already advertised by the protocol so it is not duplicated here.

diff_crawlA

Return added/removed/changed pages between the latest crawl and the most recent crawl whose crawl_ended_at <= since. Hash-based verdicts from the SQLite history index. Pair with get_freshness: pass the last_crawl_ended_at value as since after running crawl_site with incremental set to true to see exactly what changed.

get_freshnessA

Return the most recent crawl summary for a site (last_crawl_started_at/ended_at, total_pages, mode, age_seconds) plus output/state dir presence and any running job. Use this to decide whether to query the existing crawl or run crawl_site first.

get_job_statusB

Get the status of a crawl job

get_pageA

Fetch a URL live over the network and return its content as markdown. This is an on-demand fetch independent of any crawl: it does not read the stored crawl output, and it ignores the site's configured content_selector and scope.

list_pagesA

List crawled pages for a site, paginated and sorted by URL. Returns metadata only (URL, title, depth, crawled_at, content_length). Pass any URL returned here to read_page to get its stored markdown; get_page re-fetches a URL live rather than returning the crawled copy.

list_sitesA

List all configured sites available for crawling

read_pageA

Return a page's markdown from the stored crawl output, without any network access. This is the counterpart to get_page: read_page serves the crawled copy that already had the site's content_selector applied, while get_page re-fetches the URL live. Use list_pages to discover URLs, then read_page to read them. Large pages are truncated at max_bytes; follow next_offset to read the rest.

search_docsA

Full-text search across all crawled documentation, ranked by relevance (BM25 with stemming), with zero network access. Results carry the page URL, its section heading path, and a snippet with match terms marked [like this]; follow up with read_page for the full page. Supports FTS5 syntax: quoted phrases, OR, and trailing * for prefix matching. Searches the stored index only; run crawl_site first for uncrawled sites.

A4.1/5.0

Scored across 11 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Each tool has a distinct role, and the get_page/read_page vs list_pages/search_docs boundaries are clearly explained. The only mild overlap is get_freshness and get_job_status, and describe_server partly duplicates list_sites/job status, though it is positioned as an orientation call.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tools use snake_case verb_noun names like list_sites, crawl_site, cancel_crawl, read_page, and search_docs. There is no mixing of styles or vague verbs; even diff_crawl follows the verb-first pattern.

Tool Count5/5

11 tools is right-sized for a documentation crawling and retrieval server. Each tool maps to a meaningful operation without redundant surfaces.

Completeness4/5

The crawl-and-read workflow is fully covered: start/cancel/status, list/read/search stored pages, and diff/freshness for updates. The main gap is that site management is limited to listing pre-configured sites, with no tool to add, remove, or update site definitions, so agents cannot onboard new documentation sources without out-of-band configuration.
