list_packs — Browse all available Pipeworx packs. Returns pack names, categories, tool counts, and gateway URLs. Use to discover data sources or explore what's available.get_pack_tools — Get tool definitions for a specific pack (e.g., 'weather', 'polygon-io'). Returns tool names, descriptions, parameters, and requirements. Use before calling a tool to verify its interface.get_connection_config — Get MCP setup instructions for connecting to Pipeworx packs. Returns connection details and gateway URLs. Use to configure your environment.search_packs — Search Pipeworx packs by keyword or a plain question across pack names, descriptions and tool descriptions (e.g. "weather", "translate", "Colombia procurement contracts awarded to a supplier"). Returns matching packs ranked best-first with each one's matched terms, cost, auth and reliability. Use to find which pack covers a capability before connecting to it; question filler and proper names are ignored, so the subject words are what match.get_platform_status — Check Pipeworx platform health and availability. Returns pack count, active tool count, and any service alerts. Use to verify system status before operations.search_mcp_directory — Search thousands of MCP servers by use case (e.g., 'database', 'email', 'calendar'). Returns community and hosted servers. Use to find tools beyond Pipeworx.data_freshness — MEASURES publication lag for a curated set of high-value live-data sources — how fresh is this data, how old is this number, is this feed real-time, what's the data staleness on X. Every entry is PROBED LIVE against its upstream (not read from a hardcoded table): fetches the newest available datapoint right now and reports the observed lag between that datapoint and this moment. Use before pricing or settling off a number ("can I trust this PortWatch chokepoint count as current", "how stale is Polymarket vs Kalshi order flow", "when did BLS last publish CPI"). Covers maritime chokepoint traffic (IMF PortWatch), vessel AIS positions (Digitraffic), prediction-market trade tape (Polymarket, Kalshi), global news event ingestion (GDELT), and US CPI (BLS) — pass `source` (forgiving match, e.g. "portwatch", "digitraffic ais", "polymarket", "kalshi", "gdelt", "cpi") or `category` ("maritime", "markets", "news", "economics") to scope the probe, or omit both to probe every curated source. Lag is measured at call time and can vary between calls — this tool never reports a lag it did not just observe.Code samples (curl / TypeScript / one-click client install), schemas, and the live playground are on the pack page:
