    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_stats" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get aggregate statistics for the entire BuildFeed corpus: total videos, channels, categories, topics, and views; the published-date range; and transcript/TLDR enrichment coverage. Use this for high-level "how much data / how fresh" questions rather than per-video detail.
  • get_transcriptGet a bounded transcript window for one video.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_transcript" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get a bounded transcript window for one video. Prefer search_transcript_passages for discovery; use this tool to inspect surrounding context after selecting a video.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_video" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get full detail for a single BuildFeed video — description, channel info, stats, categories, topics, TLDR, and key takeaways (the raw transcript text itself is excluded).

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_weekly_roundup" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get BuildFeed's weekly roundup content. Without a date, returns the index of available weekly roundups (most recent first) — useful for discovering which weeks exist. With a date (YYYY-MM-DD week key), returns that week's full roundup detail. Use this for "what happened this week" or historical week-by-week summary questions.
  • list_categoriesList all of BuildFeed's video categories (AI, VC, Startup, Product, Design, Tools) with the number of videos in each.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_categories" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List all of BuildFeed's video categories (AI, VC, Startup, Product, Design, Tools) with the number of videos in each. Use this to understand the taxonomy before filtering search_videos/list_videos/list_channels by category.
  • list_channelsList YouTube channels tracked by BuildFeed, with per-channel video counts and categories, sorted by video count descending.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_channels" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List YouTube channels tracked by BuildFeed, with per-channel video counts and categories, sorted by video count descending. Use this to discover which creators BuildFeed covers, optionally filtered to a category.
  • list_topicsList canonical topic clusters from the full BuildFeed archive, grouped into stable families such as AI & Models, Building, Product, Startups, and Industry.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_topics" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List canonical topic clusters from the full BuildFeed archive, grouped into stable families such as AI & Models, Building, Product, Startups, and Industry. Returns video counts, aliases, content-type distribution, and audience labels.
  • list_videosList curated BuildFeed videos, optionally filtered by category and sorted by recency, views, likes, or quality score.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_videos" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List curated BuildFeed videos, optionally filtered by category and sorted by recency, views, likes, or quality score. Returns compact video records (title, channel, categories, view/like counts, quality score) without transcript or description text. Use this to browse recent/top videos; use search_videos instead when looking for a specific topic.
  • search_transcript_passagesSearch inside transcript passages, returning the most relevant timestamped excerpts across multiple videos.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "search_transcript_passages" says "search": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search inside transcript passages, returning the most relevant timestamped excerpts across multiple videos. Use this for evidence, quotations, implementation details, or questions whose answer may not appear in a title or summary.
  • search_videosFull-text search over BuildFeed's curated AI/startup/VC YouTube video library.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "search_videos" says "search": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Full-text search over BuildFeed's curated AI/startup/VC YouTube video library. Scores videos by keyword match across title, topics, TLDR summary, channel name, and key takeaways, ranked by relevance (then recency). Use this when the user asks about a specific topic, person, product, or company and you need to find relevant videos with summaries — not when you just want to browse everything (use list_videos for that instead).

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.
