## Tools
- search_servers - Search the MCP Marketplace catalog. With a free-text `query` and default `sort`, results are ranked by semantic similarity (gte-small embeddings + cosine similarity), so natural-language queries like 'manage my calendar', 'something to read PDFs', or 'database for my agent' work as well as keyword searches. Each result includes `security_score` (0-10), `risk_level` (low/moderate/high/critical), `critical_findings` (count of severity=critical|high findings), pricing, rating, install count, and a URL. `ranking_mode` in the response indicates whether semantic or keyword matching was used. Before recommending an install, call get_server for full details including every flagged finding — critical_findings > 0 means the server has known security issues you must surface to the user. Endpoint: https://mcp-marketplace.io/api/mcp/mcp
- get_server - Fetch full details for a single MCP server by its slug. Returns description, install commands, security score/risk/findings, ratings, creator info, setup requirements (API keys/credentials the user will need), and the list of MCP tools the server exposes. The `security.critical_findings` array lists every severity=critical|high issue — you MUST show these to the user before recommending they install. Use this as the last step before any install recommendation. Endpoint: https://mcp-marketplace.io/api/mcp/mcp
- similar_to - Find MCP servers that are semantically similar to a reference server. Use when a user picked a candidate but wants alternatives — e.g. 'like this but safer', 'like this but free', 'what else does this'. Reuses the catalog's gte-small embeddings: the reference server's embedding is the query vector. Returns servers sorted by cosine similarity (highest first), excluding the reference itself. Each result carries the same security/risk/pricing fields as search_servers so callers can immediately compare on `security_score`, `has_critical_findings`, and pricing. Endpoint: https://mcp-marketplace.io/api/mcp/mcp
- recently_added - List the most recently added MCP servers. Use for discovery: 'what's new', 'latest servers', 'servers from this week'. Optionally constrain to the last N days. Ordered by creation date descending. Each result carries the same security/risk/pricing fields as search_servers. Endpoint: https://mcp-marketplace.io/api/mcp/mcp
- creator_profile - List all MCP servers by a single creator, plus aggregate trust signals. Use to evaluate a publisher holistically: 'do they ship consistently?', 'what's their security track record?', 'are there other servers by the same author?'. Match is case-insensitive on display name. Returns aggregate stats (total servers, avg security score, grade distribution, critical-finding count) plus the per-server list. Endpoint: https://mcp-marketplace.io/api/mcp/mcp
- compare - Compare 2-5 MCP servers side by side on the fields users actually decide on: security score, critical findings, pricing, transport mode, tool count, and install command availability. Use when a user is choosing between candidates from a search. Returns a structured comparison table plus a short per-field summary, so the agent can surface the important contrasts without a second pass over each server. Endpoint: https://mcp-marketplace.io/api/mcp/mcp
- list_categories - List all MCP Marketplace categories with slug, name, description, and approved server count. Use the returned `slug` as the `category` filter in search_servers. Endpoint: https://mcp-marketplace.io/api/mcp/mcp
