• legislation_get_section

  UK Legal Research

  USE THIS TOOL WHEN you have a known Act / SI and want the parsed text of a specific section, with extent and in-force metadata. Returns full section text, territorial extent, in-force status, and prospective flag. Content capped per max_chars (default 10,000, ~2,500 tokens) — raise for unusually long definition sections; check content_truncated in the response. ALWAYS check `extent` — a section may apply to England & Wales but not Scotland or Northern Ireland. Reciting a section without checking extent is a recurring legal-research error. Alternative: call read_resource(uri="legislation://{type}/{year}/{number}/ section/{section}") for raw CLML XML; use this tool when you want the parsed structured response instead.

• research

  Sofya

  Perform comprehensive research on a topic. Decomposes your query into sub-queries, searches and reads multiple sources in parallel, then synthesizes a structured report with citations. Best for open-ended or comparative questions that need coverage from many angles. For simple factual lookups, use search instead (optionally with include_answer=true for cheap synthesis). Costs 25 credits. Returns: query, report (structured markdown with citations), sources (array of {title, url, fetched}), sub_queries (the decomposed queries), credits_used, credits_remaining, usage (token counts). Args: query: The research question or topic topic: "general" (default) or "news" (prioritize recent news articles) freshness: Filter by recency - "day", "week", "month", "year", or "YYYY-MM-DD:YYYY-MM-DD" max_sources: Maximum number of sources to use, 5-30 (default 20)

• archive_provenance

  Colour Memory

  Explains the provenance of a named archive colour: documented fact vs computational derivation vs cultural interpretation, with confidence and citation format. This is one component of colour_passport, but also a standalone research tool for deep provenance work (museum, documentary, editorial). Use colour_passport for a general profile; call this directly for research workflows needing full source-chain detail.

Use for: specific numerical claims with methodology context, fact-check against primary sources, effect sizes + confidence intervals, earnings transcripts / SEC filings / research papers. Per Phase 3.5 empirical A/B: 2-3× cheaper than sonar-pro with comparable or better quality on structured research. Real Meta IR press releases + earnings transcripts on Desk. 17 cites on Quant. NOT for: Reddit/X/community → use search_community. NOT for: broad topic landscapes → use search.

  Academic Research Intelligence MCP

  Get the curated daily academic-intel brief — the day's most significant research in one package, from OpenAlex, arXiv, and PubMed. Includes the top trending research topics, the top cited papers in the window, and notable new papers. Each brief carries a MINT provenance attestation so a buyer can verify it was produced by this server, unaltered. PAID: $10 USDC per brief. Defaults to today (UTC); a brief expires at the next midnight UTC. On a 402, pay the returned Solana memo and re-call with the SAME args plus payment_tx=<signature>. An Authorization: Bearer fnet_ key bypasses payment.

• createDeepResearch

  Parallel Task MCP

  Creates a Deep Research task for comprehensive, single-topic research with citations. USE THIS for analyst-grade reports, NOT for batch data enrichment. Use Parallel Search MCP for quick lookups. After calling, share the URL with the user and STOP. Do not poll or check results unless otherwise instructed. Multi-turn research: The response includes an interaction_id. To ask follow-up questions that build on prior research, pass that interaction_id as previous_interaction_id in a new call. The follow-up run inherits accumulated context, so queries like "How does this compare to X?" work without restating the original topic. Note: the first run must be completed before the follow-up can use its context.

• dispatch_head_of_research

  Heista

  Run a full research workflow via the Head of Research agent. The Head decomposes your brief into specialist sub-questions, dispatches the right combination of 6 specialists (desk, trend, market, quant, qual, social) in parallel via async dispatch, polls them to completion, judges output quality, and returns a structured synthesis. Use for: any source-grounded research request — fact-checking, vendor teardowns, trend assessment, quantitative effect-size analysis, qualitative theme extraction, cross-platform discourse mapping, or any combination. Wall time: 2-5 min typical. Returns: { synthesis, head_session_id, status, event_count, tool_uses, elapsed_ms }. NOT for: non-research requests (writing, coding, casual chat) — respond directly without calling this. Cost: $0.20-1.50 per call depending on brief complexity (specialist token spend + Anthropic session-runtime at $0.08/hr).
