Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
web_searchA
Search the web for a query using DuckDuckGo, Mojeek scraping, or automatic fallback.

Args:
    query: The search term or question.
    engine: The search engine to use ("auto", "duckduckgo", "mojeek"). Defaults to "auto".
    limit: Max results to return (max 10). Defaults to 5.
web_fetchA
Fetch a webpage's content and convert it into clean markdown.
Image links and hyperlinks are removed to save token context size.

Args:
    url: The web URL to fetch and convert.
workspace_indexA

Indexes all text and code files in the local workspace directory. This creates/updates a local SQLite FTS5 database to enable offline searching.

workspace_searchA
Perform a fast keyword search across indexed workspace text/code files completely offline.
Must run `workspace_index` at least once before searching to populate results.

Args:
    query: Keyword or terms to search for.
    limit: Maximum matching snippets to return. Defaults to 10.
file_readA
Read the contents of a text/code file in the workspace.
Access is strictly confined to the workspace root.

Args:
    path: Path to the file, relative to workspace root.
file_writeA
Write content to a file in the workspace, creating any intermediate directories if needed.
Access is strictly confined to the workspace root.

Args:
    path: Relative path where the file should be written.
    content: The text content to write.
file_deleteA
Delete a file or empty directory in the workspace.
Access is strictly confined to the workspace root.

Args:
    path: Relative path to the file or directory to delete.
file_moveB
Move or rename a file/directory inside the workspace.
Both source and destination must resolve within the workspace root.

Args:
    source: Source path relative to workspace.
    destination: Destination path relative to workspace.
directory_listA
List all files and directories inside a target workspace path.
Access is strictly confined to the workspace root.

Args:
    path: Target directory path relative to workspace. Defaults to ".".
file_changes_getA

Get a log of recent file modifications, creations, or deletions in the workspace. The background watcher monitors the workspace and keeps the latest 100 events in memory.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0

Scored across 10 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: file read, write, delete, move, list, change log, workspace index/search, web fetch, and web search. No two tools overlap in functionality.

Naming Consistency4/5

Most tools follow a consistent pattern: 'file_<verb>' (file_read, file_write, file_delete, file_move, file_changes_get) and 'workspace_<verb>' (workspace_index, workspace_search). Minor deviation: 'directory_list' instead of 'file_list' and 'web_fetch'/'web_search' are separate but still consistent with their domain.

Tool Count5/5

With 10 tools, the set is well-scoped for managing workspace files and performing web searches. Each tool serves a clear purpose without unnecessary redundancy.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers CRUD for files, directory listing, change tracking, offline full-text search, and web operations. A minor gap is the lack of an explicit file copy tool, though move can be used with caution.
