Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_policiesA | List all available ASF policy documents organised by section. |
| get_policyA | Retrieve the full text of a specific ASF policy document. Use list_policies to discover valid policy keys such as 'release_policy', 'branding', 'resolved_licenses', 'incubator', etc. |
| search_policiesA | Search across cached ASF policy documents for a query term or phrase. Returns ranked excerpts with surrounding context. Only searches policies already in the local cache — run refresh_cache first to ensure all policies are available. |
| refresh_cacheA | Re-fetch policy documents from the ASF website in parallel, bypassing the 30-day cache. Omit keys to refresh all policies. |

Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: listing, retrieving, searching, and caching. No overlap or confusion.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case: get_policy, list_policies, refresh_cache, search_policies.
Four tools are perfectly scoped for managing policy documents: list, get, search, and cache refresh.
The set covers all necessary operations for a read-only policy server: discovery, retrieval, search, and cache management.
