Instructions
Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.
This server publishes no instructions, or was last inspected before Glama recorded them.

Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| front_design_pingA | Liveness check — package version, runtime mode, and indexed resource count. |
| front_design_healthA | Readiness check — storage backend, effective retrieval mode, and index counts. Reports what the server can actually do right now: which backend is open, whether vector and hybrid search are available, which embedding provider is configured, and how many resources, chunks, and embeddings are indexed. Never returns credentials; database URLs are redacted. |
| discover_frontend_resourcesA | Browse and filter indexed frontend resources (components, patterns, libraries). Supports category/kind, framework, style/tags, license, accessibility, animation, maturity, source_id, limit, and offset. Returns paginated items with provenance. |
| search_frontend_knowledgeA | Search frontend knowledge chunks. Uses BM25 on the SQLite backend and hybrid full-text + pgvector retrieval when PostgreSQL and an embedding provider are configured. Pass query plus optional filters (kind, framework, tags, source_id), limit, and detail_level (brief|standard|full). Returns scores, per-branch ranks, the retrieval mode actually used, citations, and provenance. |
| get_resource_detailsA | Fetch a normalized FrontendResource by id (resource id string, e.g. motion:motion-library), related sanitized documentation chunks, and license/attribution. Parameter name is |
| compare_frontend_optionsA | Compare frontend options by id or name. Primary parameter: |
| recommend_frontend_stackA | Recommend a frontend stack from requirements, target_framework, constraints, aesthetics, accessibility, and performance. Returns recommendation, trade-offs, incompatibilities, plan, sources, with facts vs inferences. |
| find_componentsA | Find components/patterns for an intent string (hero, pricing, navbar, dashboard, onboarding, microinteraction, scroll animation, …) with optional framework filter. |
| find_animation_patternsA | Find animation patterns for a query/use-case. Includes cost notes, accessibility, and prefers-reduced-motion support when known from indexed notes; cites sources. |
| build_frontend_briefA | Build an implementation brief from product_description + constraints: stack, components, motion system, suggested design tokens, responsive behavior, and acceptance criteria. Inferences are marked clearly. |
Prompts

| Name | Description |
