Search GitHub repositories by keyword, topic, or description. Returns stars, forks, language, topics, and license info.

github_repo_infoA

Get detailed information about a specific GitHub repository: stars, forks, contributors, releases, license, topics, and more.

x_searchA

Search X (Twitter) for posts, discussions, and trends using xAI's Grok API with web search. Requires XAI_API_KEY. Cost: ~$0.05/call (web_search $0.005 × 8-9 calls + tokens).

pypi_searchA

Look up Python packages on PyPI by name. Tries multiple name variants (hyphenated, underscored, with py- prefix). For best results, use the exact or approximate package name. Returns version, summary, links, and metadata.

producthunt_searchA

Search Product Hunt for products and launches. Tries topic-based lookup first, then falls back to keyword filtering on recent posts. Returns votes, comments, topics, makers, and descriptions. Requires PH_CLIENT_ID/SECRET.

scout_reportA

Run a multi-source intelligence report. Searches across 18 sources (HN, GitHub, npm, PyPI, X, Product Hunt, Dev.to, Hashnode, Lobste.rs, StackExchange, ArXiv, Reddit, YouTube, Zenn, Qiita, Semantic Scholar, Lemmy, GitLab) in parallel. Use 'focus' to control source selection: 'balanced' (14 free APIs), 'trending' (HN+X+PH+Dev.to+Lobsters), 'comprehensive' (all 18). Or specify exact sources. X search uses xAI Grok API (~$0.005/call). Reddit requires API keys. YouTube requires API key.
