Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| search_knowledgeA | Search curated, source-backed SEO, SaaS, and LLM-wiki knowledge. Returns ranked notes with a snippet and URL. Use this to ground answers about search-engine optimization, SaaS business models, or AI knowledge bases. |
| get_pageA | Fetch the full text of one note by title or slug. Use after search_knowledge to read the note before answering. Preserves [[wikilinks]]. |
| explore_conceptA | Return a note together with the notes it links to (outbound) and the notes that link back to it (inbound). Use to walk the knowledge graph around a concept instead of a flat search. |
| list_topicsA | List the available notes, grouped by section (seo, saas, blog). Use to discover what the knowledge base covers. |
| citeA | Return the canonical citation (title, description, URL) for a note, so an answer can attribute the XKnow source. |

Scored across 5 tools
Each tool targets a distinct operation: search, read, explore graph, list, and cite. No overlap in purpose or output, making selection straightforward.
Mostly consistent verb_noun patterns (search_knowledge, get_page, explore_concept, list_topics), but 'cite' deviates as a bare verb without an object. Minor inconsistency.
Five tools perfectly cover the core workflows of a knowledge retrieval server: discover, search, read, explore connections, and cite. Well-scoped with no extraneous tools.
Covers all essential operations for a read-only knowledge base. Missing tools for editing or adding notes, but the server appears curated and source-backed, so writes may be intentionally out of scope.
