Changes things 4Claude Code: ask
  • can_i_run_itWill a given local LLM run on given hardware?No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "can_i_run_it" says "run": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Will a given local LLM run on given hardware? Returns fit, the best quant that fits, theoretical tok/s, and real owner-measured tok/s where available.
  • cheapest_hardware_for_modelThe cheapest catalogued, buyable machine that runs a given model at Q4 with the requested context.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 cheapest catalogued, buyable machine that runs a given model at Q4 with the requested context.
  • recommend_hardwareRanked list of catalogued, buyable machines that run a model at the requested context, cheapest first, with an optional budget cap.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
    Ranked list of catalogued, buyable machines that run a model at the requested context, cheapest first, with an optional budget cap.
  • recommend_quantWhich GGUF quantization to download for a model on given hardware: the full quant ladder with file size, max context, and tok/s for each, plus the recommended pick.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
    Which GGUF quantization to download for a model on given hardware: the full quant ladder with file size, max context, and tok/s for each, plus the recommended pick.
Only reads 5Claude Code: allow
  • compare_hardwareSide-by-side memory, bandwidth, price, and (with a model) fit + tok/s for 2 to 4 machines.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "compare_hardware" says "compare": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Side-by-side memory, bandwidth, price, and (with a model) fit + tok/s for 2 to 4 machines.
  • cost_compareBuy vs rent vs API cost to run a model locally: monthly/1y/3y totals, break-even months, and the energy cost per 1M tokens.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "cost_compare" says "compare": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Buy vs rent vs API cost to run a model locally: monthly/1y/3y totals, break-even months, and the energy cost per 1M tokens. Same math as /cost-calculator/.
  • get_used_gpu_pricesCurrent typical used-GPU prices for local-AI rigs (eBay Browse API median asking + hand-verified, monthly).No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_used_gpu_prices" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Current typical used-GPU prices for local-AI rigs (eBay Browse API median asking + hand-verified, monthly).
  • list_hardwareList the machines the tools know about (memory, bandwidth, price, buy link).No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_hardware" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List the machines the tools know about (memory, bandwidth, price, buy link).
  • list_modelsList the local LLM model classes the tools know about (params, dense/MoE, native context).No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_models" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List the local LLM model classes the tools know about (params, dense/MoE, native context).

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.
