Bikefuchs — Bike Parts Price Comparison tools 7

  • search_productSearch for bicycle parts, components, accessories, and cycling clothing by name, brand, or model number. Returns matching products sorted cheapest-first, each with its price, stock status, EAN barcode, and a direct purchase link. Supports DE and AT pricing. If you already have a product's EAN, use get_best_price instead.
  • get_best_priceLook up a single product by its EAN barcode and return the price at every shop that carries it, sorted cheapest-first, with stock status and direct purchase links.
  • optimize_cartFind the cheapest way to buy multiple products together: computes the optimal split across shops — which items to order from which shop — accounting for each shop's shipping costs and free-shipping thresholds, and returns the lowest achievable total including shipping. Takes an array of EAN barcodes. For accurate results, call get_best_price for each EAN first, then call optimize_cart.
  • get_shop_infoReturn an overview of the supported shops, including their shipping cost tiers, free-shipping thresholds, and supported countries (DE and AT).
  • get_shipping_breakdownReturn the exact shipping cost for a specific shop, country, and cart value, including all shipping tiers and how much more is needed to reach the next free-shipping threshold.
  • find_alternatives_for_productGiven a product's EAN barcode, return every shop that carries it with prices and availability, sorted cheapest-first.
  • resolve_productTurn a product page URL from a supported shop into structured product data — EAN barcode, price, stock status, and a purchase link — so the EAN can then be used with get_best_price or optimize_cart. Multi-variant product families return a labeled candidate list (size/colour, price, EAN per variant): ask the user to pick a variant, then use that exact variant's EAN with the other tools.

PDF Reader MCP tools 4

  • inspectDocument and media evidence when Markdown is not enough. video_timeline (bounded scene/cue timeline) and render_frame (actual decoded frames), and cite_check (quote/location support, not semantic truth), are anymd Pro; PDF operations: inspect (page facts, metadata), render_page (PNG images), extract_regions (crop bounding boxes), ocr_pages / analyze_regions (configured OCR or vision provider), structure (JSON with document map, elements, geometry; profile quality|research adds trust and accessibility reports), compare (page-level diff of sources[0] vs sources[1]).
  • outlineReturn a document heading tree with stable node ids, title paths, page/slide/chapter ranges and Markdown byte ranges. PDF bookmarks or detected headings, Word headings, PowerPoint slides, EPUB chapters and headings, HTML and Markdown. format json (default) or tree. Pass a node id to read to fetch that section.
  • readRead any document as clean Markdown: PDF, Word (DOCX), PowerPoint (PPTX), Excel (XLSX/XLS/ODS), CSV, EPUB, HTML or a web URL, Markdown/text, images (metadata + OCR), audio/video (metadata, chapters, subtitles). Pages/slides/sheets carry <!-- page N --> style markers for citation. Long documents stop at max_tokens (default 20000) and end with a cursor to continue; choose pages with pages: "1-5,8". A directory returns its readable files.
  • searchSearch documents for text: one file, many files, whole directories (recursive, .gitignore aware), or URLs, across every format read supports. Returns each hit as file + page/slide/sheet + a snippet with the match in bold. mode auto (default) finds the exact phrase and falls back to BM25-ranked passages when there is none; literal or ranked force one. Narrow directories with glob, e.g. "*.pdf".
