Tools

• search_packages — Search npm for packages by keyword. Returns package names, descriptions, latest versions, publish dates, and publishers. Use when discovering libraries for a task.
• get_package — Get full details for a specific package: version, description, dependencies, homepage, repository, and license. Use after search_packages to evaluate a candidate package.
• get_downloads — Fetch npm download counts for a package over a named period (last-day, last-week, last-month, last-year) or a custom date range like "2024-01-01:2024-06-30". Returns total downloads, start date, and end date.
• list_versions — List published versions of an npm package with publish dates, dist-tags (latest/next/beta), and deprecation notices — answers "what versions of <pkg> exist", "when was <pkg> last published", "is the latest version deprecated". Returns versions newest-first, plus the package created/last-modified timestamps.
• get_version_info — Get metadata for a SPECIFIC version (or dist-tag) of an npm package: dependencies, dev/peer dependencies, engines, license, tarball + integrity hash + unpacked size, and any deprecation notice. Use for "dependencies of <pkg>@<version>", pinned-version audits, or inspecting a particular release. Version accepts an exact version (e.g. "4.18.2"), a dist-tag (e.g. "latest", "next"), or omit for the latest.
