Loading tool schema changelog…
Scored across 13 tools
Each tool targets a distinct data source or platform (npm/PyPI, GitHub, VS Code, Chrome, Google Play, App Store, CrossRef, openFDA, iCal, Shopify, Hacker News, GitHub trending, Stack Exchange). The only slight overlap is between github_repo_health and github_trending_scraper, but they serve different purposes (health metrics vs trending repos), so confusion is minimal.
Names follow a general noun/action pattern but mix conventions: some use underscores (package_health_checker), some use camelCase-like concatenation (github_repo_health), and some are verb phrases (app_store_lookup). The inconsistency is noticeable but each name remains readable and descriptive.
13 tools is a reasonable count for a multi-source data aggregation server. Each tool covers a distinct data source, so the set is well-scoped, though it could be considered slightly heavy if more sources are added without grouping.
The server covers a broad range of developer, app, and research data sources with read-only scraping/lookup operations. However, it lacks tools for write operations (e.g., posting to Hacker News, managing repositories) and some potential sources (e.g., Reddit, Product Hunt), but for a data retrieval server, the surface is fairly complete.
Give your agent live data from Twitter, Reddit, the web and GitHub. No API keys, no scraping stack.
660+ data tools for agents: TikTok, Douyin, Instagram, YouTube, X, weather, GitHub. Pay per call.
Discover, inspect and run 63,000+ agent tools from one balance. Pay per call, no subscriptions.
Web data for agents: YouTube transcripts, screenshots, Google News, WHOIS, jobs, tech stack, more.
