What it does: Returns all available tool categories with counts.

Example:

{}

Why LLMs need this: Before using a tool, LLMs need to understand its parameters, return format, and usage examples. This tool provides complete documentation for any registered tool.

What it does: Returns detailed metadata for a specific tool including description, parameters, category, priority, and usage info.

Parameters:

• tool_name (required): Name of the tool

Example:

{"tool_name": "search_arxiv"}

Why LLMs need this: LLMs have a knowledge cutoff date and cannot access current information. This tool gives them real-time access to the web, enabling answers about recent events, current prices, latest news, and up-to-date documentation.

Parameters:

• ip_address: IP to lookup (optional, uses server IP if omitted)

Example:

{"ip_address": "8.8.8.8"}

Returns: Country, region, city, ZIP, timezone, lat/lon, ISP, AS number.

Why LLMs need this: Not all sources are equal. When citing information, LLMs need to distinguish between peer-reviewed research, reputable news, and random blogs. This tool provides objective credibility metrics to support source evaluation.

What it does: Assesses web source credibility using 30+ signals including domain age (WHOIS), citation network (PageRank), and content analysis with Bayesian confidence intervals.

Parameters:

{"url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.00234", "metadata": {"is_peer_reviewed": true}}

Returns: Credibility score (0-1), confidence interval, category, PageRank, 30+ signal scores.

Why LLMs need this: Long documents exceed context limits. Before analyzing a large PDF or article, this tool can create a concise summary, letting LLMs work with more sources without running out of context.

What it does: Summarizes long text using TF-IDF extraction, keyword-based selection, or fast heuristic methods. Runs locally with no external APIs.

Parameters:

• text (required): Text to summarize
• strategy: "auto", "extractive_tfidf", "extractive_keyword", "heuristic"
• compression_ratio: Target ratio 0.1-0.9 (default: 0.3)

Parameters:

• expression (required): Math expression

Supported: +, -, *, /, **, ^, %, //, sqrt, sin, cos, tan, log, log10, exp, factorial, pi, e, and more.

Example:

{"expression": "sqrt(144) + sin(pi/2) * 10"}

Why LLMs need this: Users often want to discuss files on their system. This tool lets LLMs read text, PDFs, Word docs, and more to answer questions about file contents, analyze data, or help with editing.

What it does: Reads content from text, PDF, Word, Excel, or image files with automatic format detection.

Parameters:

• path (required): File path (relative paths use data/files/ as base)

Example:

{"path": "notes.txt"}

Why LLMs need this: LLMs can generate code, documents, and data, but without file writing they can only display output. This tool lets them save generated content to actual files users can use.

What it does: Writes content to a file, creating it if it doesn't exist. UTF-8 text files only.

Parameters:

• path (required): File path
• content (required): Content to write

Example:

{"path": "output.txt", "content": "Hello, World!"}

Why LLMs need this: For logging, note-taking, and incremental data collection, appending is safer than overwriting. This tool adds content to existing files without losing previous data.

What it does: Appends content to an existing file or creates a new one.

Parameters:

• path (required): File path
• content (required): Content to append

Example:

{"path": "log.txt", "content": "\nNew log entry"}

Why LLMs need this: Before reading or writing files, LLMs need to know what exists. This tool provides directory listings with file sizes and types, enabling file management workflows.

What it does: Lists files and directories with sizes and types.

Parameters:

• path: Directory path (default: data/files/)

Example:

{"path": ""}

Why LLMs need this: Complete file management requires deletion. This tool enables cleanup of temporary files, old outputs, and user-requested deletions with security restrictions.

What it does: Deletes a file (restricted to data/files/ directory for security).

Parameters:

• path (required): File path to delete

Example:

{"path": "temp.txt"}
