Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_palettesA | List available fuse bead palettes, brand, series, bead size, entry count, and source links. |
| get_colorA | Look up one fuse bead by palette ID and printed code. Includes approximate HEX/RGB and finish. |
| search_colorsA | Search color codes, names, HEX values, brands, or series. Without paletteId, searches representative palettes only to avoid subset duplicates. |
| nearest_colorsA | Find the nearest approximate RGB screen colors in one palette. Excludes effect and transparent finishes by default. |
| match_across_palettesB | Find one approximate screen-color match per selected palette, starting from a HEX value or an existing bead code. |

Scored across 5 tools
The tools mostly have clear, distinct purposes: list palettes, exact color lookup, search, nearest match within a palette, and match across palettes. There is some potential overlap because search_colors accepts HEX values while nearest_colors performs approximate RGB matching, but the descriptions help distinguish exact/catalog search from approximate matching.
All names use consistent snake_case and are easy to read. Most follow a verb_noun pattern, though nearest_colors is adjective_noun rather than verb-led, and match_across_palettes adds a prepositional structure.
Five tools is well-scoped for a read-only bead color reference server. Each tool covers a distinct mode of access without obvious bloat or redundancy.
The surface covers palette discovery, exact color lookup, search, nearest matching within a palette, and cross-palette matching. A dedicated way to list all colors in a specific palette is not explicitly exposed, which is a minor gap but not a major blocker.
