Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
usePatternFlyDocsA

Get markdown documentation and component JSON schemas for PatternFly resources and components.

  **Usage**:
    1. Input a component or resource name (e.g., "Button", "Writing") OR a list of up to 15 patternfly:// URIs or documentation URLs at a time (typically from searchPatternFlyDocs results).

  **Returns**:
    - Markdown documentation
    - Component JSON schemas, if available
searchPatternFlyDocsA

Search collections and get component names with documentation and guidance URLs. Supports case-insensitive partial, version-specific (e.g., "card v5"), and all ("*") matches.

  **Usage**:
    1. Input a "searchQuery" to find documentation and guideline URLs, resource URIs, and component names.
    2. Use the returned resource names OR URLs OR URIs OR version with the "usePatternFlyDocs" tool to get markdown documentation, guidelines, and component JSON schemas.

  **Returns**:
    - Component and resource names that can be used with "usePatternFlyDocs"
    - Documentation and guideline URLs that can be used with "usePatternFlyDocs"
    - Resource URIs that can be used with "usePatternFlyDocs" or directly as MCP resources

TDQS

A3.9/5.0

Scored across 2 tools

Disambiguation4/5

The pair follows a clean search-then-fetch split: searchPatternFlyDocs returns names/URIs/URLs, usePatternFlyDocs consumes them. The only slight fuzziness is that 'usePatternFlyDocs' alone doesn't signal 'fetch content' without reading the description, but the two tools are not confusable in practice.

Naming Consistency5/5

Both names use camelCase with a verb+PatternFly+Docs structure (searchPatternFlyDocs, usePatternFlyDocs), giving a predictable, parallel pattern. No mixed conventions or vague one-word verbs.

Tool Count4/5

Two tools is deliberately minimal but justified: this is the canonical search/fetch pattern for a documentation server, and each tool has a distinct, non-redundant role. It sits at the thin end of the range but is well scoped.

Completeness4/5

Discovery (search, including wildcard and version-specific queries) plus retrieval of markdown docs and JSON schemas covers the core documentation use case with no dead ends. Minor gaps exist, such as no explicit enumeration of available versions or collections, but '*' search largely compensates.
