Server Configuration

Describes the environment variables required to run the server.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
TAVILY_API_KEYYesYour Tavily API key

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.

Capabilities

Server capabilities have not been inspected yet.

Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
web_searchB

Search the web for information about the given query

roll_diceC

Roll the dice with the given notation

scientific_calculatorA

Evaluate mathematical expressions using a scientific calculator.

Supports:

  • Basic arithmetic: +, -, *, /, //, %, **

  • Scientific functions: sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, atan, sinh, cosh, tanh

  • Logarithmic functions: log, log10, log2, ln (natural log)

  • Exponential functions: exp, sqrt, cbrt

  • Constants: pi, e, tau

  • Complex numbers: 1+2j, complex operations

  • Trigonometric functions work with radians by default

  • Use degrees(x) to convert radians to degrees, radians(x) to convert degrees to radians

Examples:

  • "sin(pi/2)" -> 1.0

  • "log10(100)" -> 2.0

  • "sqrt(16)" -> 4.0

  • "2**3" -> 8

  • "exp(1)" -> 2.718281828459045

generate_qr_codeB

Generate a QR code for the given data.

Args: data: The text or URL to encode in the QR code error_correction: Error correction level - "L" (Low ~7%), "M" (Medium ~15%), "Q" (Quartile ~25%), "H" (High ~30%) border: Size of the border (minimum is 4) box_size: Size of each box in pixels (default 10)

Returns: Base64 encoded PNG image of the QR code that can be displayed or saved

TDQS

B3.2/5.0

Scored across 4 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Each tool serves a completely distinct purpose with no overlap: QR code generation, dice rolling, scientific calculation, and web search. An agent can easily differentiate between these unrelated functionalities, eliminating any risk of misselection.

Naming Consistency4/5

Three tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (generate_qr_code, roll_dice, web_search), but 'scientific_calculator' deviates as a noun_noun compound. This minor inconsistency slightly reduces predictability, though the names remain clear and readable.

Tool Count3/5

With only 4 tools, the set feels thin for a server named 'Tavily Web Search MCP Server', as web search is just one component among unrelated utilities. The count is borderline—too few to fully cover a coherent domain, suggesting a miscellaneous toolkit rather than a focused service.

Completeness2/5

For a web search server, the toolset is severely incomplete, lacking essential operations like filtering results, pagination, or retrieving specific content. The inclusion of unrelated tools (QR code, dice, calculator) further dilutes the domain, creating significant gaps that will hinder agent workflows focused on search.
