Changes things 4Claude Code: ask
articleThe full text of an article, for when lookup()'s summary is not enough — sections as a JSON array, infobox as key/value facts, no HTML or wikitext to parse.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it The full text of an article, for when lookup()'s summary is not enough — sections as a JSON array, infobox as key/value facts, no HTML or wikitext to parse. Pass `sections` to pull only the parts you need (e.g. ["Early life"]) and `max_chars` to cap the payload; both exist because a long article will otherwise flood your context.
defineWhat a word means, in thousands of languages — 8.15M dictionary entries with senses, part of speech, etymology and pronunciation.No findings

Description, as the server wrote it What a word means, in thousands of languages — 8.15M dictionary entries with senses, part of speech, etymology and pronunciation. Covers what a general model is weakest at: historical languages (Old English, Gothic, Ancient Greek, Middle French) and hundreds of regional and indigenous ones. A single spelling often has entries in many languages and you get all of them — `hund` returns Danish, Gothic, Icelandic, Middle English and more — or pass `language` to narrow, `pos` for one part of speech. Use this for words and lookup() for things: define("java") gives the word in eight languages, lookup("Java") gives the island.
papersAcademic paper metadata from 57M+ works — title, abstract, authors, citations, DOI and open access URL.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it Academic paper metadata from 57M+ works — title, abstract, authors, citations, DOI and open access URL. Covers every field: CS, medicine, physics, economics, biology, and more. Search by keywords (e.g. "transformer attention"), by topic name (e.g. "machine learning"), or by OpenAlex topic ID. Returns papers sorted by citation count. Source: OpenAlex (CC0 metadata). Use this when the user needs scholarly references, citation counts, or research context that Wikipedia does not cover.
recentWhat changed in the last hours or days — the escape hatch for facts newer than your training cutoff.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it What changed in the last hours or days — the escape hatch for facts newer than your training cutoff. Reach for this whenever the answer could have moved since you were trained: elections, appointments, acquisitions, releases, deaths, records. Returns titles with timestamps and edit comments; resolve any of them with lookup(). Pass `topic` to filter and `hours` to widen the window up to a week.
Only reads 2Claude Code: allow
lookupFacts about any named thing — person, company, place, species, event, concept.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "lookup" says "lookup": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Facts about any named thing — person, company, place, species, event, concept. Returns structured fields (dates, identifiers, relationships) plus a ~200-token summary, drawn from 10.2M entity records. Prefer this over fetching an encyclopedia page: the HTML costs ~15,000 tokens to recover ~500 tokens of fact. Resolves aliases and Wikidata Q-ids, so "Apple", "Apple Inc" and "Q312" all reach the same entity. Free, no key.
searchFind the right title when you only have a partial name or a rough description.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "search" says "search": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Find the right title when you only have a partial name or a rough description. Returns ranked {title, wikidata_id, description, summary_snippet}; ranking blends text relevance with monthly pageviews and follows redirects, so abbreviations land on the real article — "usa" returns United States, "jfk" returns John F. Kennedy, "apple" returns Apple Inc. rather than a disambiguation page. Searches every corpus at once unless you pass `corpus`. Follow up with lookup() for facts or article() for the text.
This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
