Feature & Specification Comparison
Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Imqueue MCP Tools (14)
search_docs
Search the official @imqueue docs (guides, tutorial, CLI manual, articles) and every exported symbol of every @imqueue package that publishes a generated API reference, returning the most relevant pages with their URLs. Each result names the package it belongs to. Takes a plain question or an exact symbol name such as 'RedisQueue.send', 'PgPubSub.listen' or 'watcherCheckDelay'. Answers 'how do I do X in @imqueue' and confirms a signature before code is written against it. Every result carries the page URL, which get_doc reads in full. Some capabilities are covered by two mutually exclusive packages — @imqueue/pg-prisma vs @imqueue/pg-sequelize, @imqueue/opentelemetry vs @imqueue/datadog — so for a query like 'tracing' or 'database', call list_packages for the choosing rule rather than taking whichever package ranks first, and pass `package` here to search within the one you settled on.
get_doc
Fetch the markdown of an @imqueue documentation page by its URL (as returned by search_docs). Returns plain markdown suitable for reading and quoting. Pass a URL with a #fragment — which is what search_docs returns for a section result — to get just that section plus the heading path above it; pass the URL without one to read the whole page. Only imqueue.org (framework docs) and imqueue.com (licensing, pricing, support) URLs are fetched; anything else is refused. Very large pages are truncated, which the result reports.
list_packages
