Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| check_packageA | Verify a single npm package before installing, importing, or recommending it. Returns whether it actually exists, and flags slopsquatting (a low-adoption package impersonating a popular one), install-time scripts, deprecation, and abandonment. Call this whenever you are about to introduce a dependency you have not verified in this session. |
| check_dependenciesA | Verify many npm packages at once — use this before writing a package.json, running an install command, or handing a dependency list to a user. Results are sorted worst-first so anything hallucinated or dangerous surfaces at the top. |
