6 of 6 tools

Documented tools (6)

From project documentation. A server handshake does not verify each tool’s description or behavior.

compare_versions

Diff a Python stdlib symbol between two indexed versions. Returns change=added

detect_python_version

Detect the user's local Python version and report whether that version has been indexed.

get_docs

Retrieve a specific documentation page or section by slug and optional anchor. Returns markdown content with budget-enforced truncation and pagination. Retrieved results are cached on disk by Python docs version and request identity.

list_versions

List all indexed Python versions with metadata.

lookup_package_docs

Look up official PyPI package metadata and return package-declared documentation/homepage/source URLs. This is a controlled PyPI metadata lookup, not generic web search.

search_docs

Search Python stdlib docs by query. Supports symbol lookup (asyncio.TaskGroup), module search (json), and free-text search. Returns ranked hits with BM25 scoring and snippet excerpts.
