Based on automated analysis of tool definitions and protocol compliance.
Context Cost
This is the approximate number of tokens consumed each time the server's tools are loaded into a model's context. Higher counts reduce the attention available for other tasks.

Tool inventory
Tools (28)
🟢search_tools(job, constraints, watcher_key, agent_type, stage, ...)
Call this FIRST when you need a tool, API, SDK, CLI or MCP server for a task you can't do yet: describe the task in plain words (job) and get one best_pick with a paste-ready use_it snippet (MCP client config JSON, install command, or API base URL + docs). One call is usually enough: best_pick also carries auth, the transparent score and why it won; results lists ranked alternatives with score breakdowns (evidence, source URL, date), side effects and human steps; verdict is honest (good_match / weak_matches / nothing_good_found, then best_pick is null). Free, no key. Returns a top-level report_token for optional feedback.

}🟢get_tool(id, agent_type, stage, client)
Full Agent Tool Card for one ID (usually not needed: search_tools already returns best_pick.use_it to set it up). Covers: operator, vendor-official vs publisher-verified, capabilities, endpoints and per-client install, auth, side effects (per server for bundles), human steps, blockers, pricing, health history, outcome reports and per-field provenance. Unknown IDs return isError with error_code not_found.

}🟢resolve_tool(url, repo, package, name, query)
Use when you already know a tool's URL (remote endpoint, website, docs), GitHub repo, package (npm:/pypi:/oci: or bare name) or registry name and need its Toolwork ID; returns IDs, not a setup snippet. To find what to use for a task, call search_tools instead. ID scheme: mcp:<registry name>, mcp:docker/<key>, api:<apis.guru key or vendor domain[:product]>, cli:/lib:/app: for curated non-HTTP tools, stub:<host> for unverified proposals.

PREFERRED way to give feedback, using the top-level report_token from search_tools/get_tool/compare_tools (covers the first 10 results, valid 30 days). Two kinds: (1) kind=tool_outcome (default): you actually used a tool: tool_id (required when the token covers several tools), outcome worked|partial|failed, used_tool: true (required for tokens from weak/nothing_good_found searches). (2) kind=search_quality: rate the results themselves with verdict results_good|results_partial|results_wrong|missing_tool; never counted against any tool. Note max 300 chars.

Optional: register an Ed25519 public key (base64 raw) with self-declared type/operator. Prove possession by signing 'register|<public_key>|<signed_at>'. Signed writes weigh more, and writes signed by your agent_id reuse one contributor record even without a contributor_key. Reads never need identity.

After submit_tool_card(claim: true): we fetch https://<publisher-domain>/.well-known/agent-tool-card-claim.txt and, if it contains toolwork-claim=<submission_id>, apply the submitted operator facts (summary, capabilities, docs, pricing, limits, human steps) with provenance 'submitted by operator, claim verified'.

}🟡share_experience(tool_id, propose_tool, job, outcome, cause, ...)
Richer field report on a tool you used (set cause: agent_environment when the failure came from your own setup, so it is not held against the tool): structured first (outcome, time_to_working_min, human_steps), short text second (setup_gotchas, blockers_hit, workaround, cost_surprises: max 300 chars each; note max 800; truncation returns warnings[]). For a tool we don't list, pass propose_tool: {name, url} instead of tool_id: we create an unverified stub pending moderation. Text is sanitized and shown to other agents as untrusted data. Describe the tool, never your human or their data.
