Tools (19)

build_custom_pipeline_urlread-onlyFor a custom task (no existing pipeline matches), get a deep link to the Pipeline Builder on thedailyworkflow.com. The builder composes a step-by-step pipeline from 15000+ AI tools with ready-to-paste prompts. The MCP server doesn't run it directly — it returns the prefilled URL where the user can run it. Args: task: Description of what the user wants to accomplish. Example: "create a YouTube channel with bedtime stories using AI for video and voice". lang: "en" or "ru" (default "en"). Returns: Dict with builder_url (open this in browser), task (echoed), and a note explaining what happens. Use this when search_pipelines returns no good match. ALWAYS call search_pipelines first to check for existing solutions before suggesting the builder.
catalog_statsread-onlyStats about the MCP catalog at thedailyworkflow.com. Returns: total_servers (int), top_languages (list of {language, count}), catalog_url. Use this for context-setting questions like "how many MCP servers exist" or "what's the most popular language for MCP servers".
find_free_alternativeread-onlyFind verified free open-source replacements for a paid AI product. Backed by the Swap Map at thedailyworkflow.com/alternatives — every replacement is checked by hand against live GitHub (stars, license, last push). Answer honestly from the returned status: - "covered": list the replacements (repo, stars, license, coverage full/partial, why_en, setup_level) and the money saved. - "checked_no_replacement": the product was audited and no verified free replacement exists yet — say exactly that. - "unknown": not audited yet; may include up to 3 covered "suggestions" nearby — present them as neighbours, NOT as replacements for this product. Args: product_name: Paid product name, e.g. "Midjourney", "Notion AI", "Jasper". Case-insensitive.
get_ai_tool_detailsread-onlyFull details for a specific AI tool: features, pricing, target audience, USP. Args: slug: Tool slug from search_ai_tools results (e.g. "chatgpt", "midjourney"). Returns: Dict with full description, key_features, pricing_details, target_audience, unique_selling, tags, rating, page_url. Use this when the user wants deeper info on a tool before signing up — pricing breakdown, who it's for, what makes it different.
get_mcp_detailsread-onlyGet complete details for a specific MCP server: description, use cases, tools, install configs. Args: slug: MCP server slug. Returns: Full MCP record with description, long description, use_cases (list of scenarios), tools (what the server exposes), install_configs (per-client snippets), license, author, stars, page_url. Use this when the user wants to learn more about a specific MCP before installing, or when they ask "what does X MCP do" or "show me use cases for X".
get_mcp_install_configread-onlyGet a ready-to-paste install config for a specific MCP server and client. Args: slug: MCP server slug (from search_mcp_servers `slug` field). Example: "github-mcp". client: Target client. Values: claude-desktop, cursor, cline, windsurf, continue, goose. Default: claude-desktop. Returns: Dict with `config` (JSON snippet ready to paste into client's config file), `install_command` (e.g. `npx @x/y`), `available_clients` (which clients have configs), and `page_url`. If config for requested client is missing, `config` will be null — try a different client from `available_clients`. Use this AFTER finding an MCP via search. Show the user the exact config snippet plus the path to their client's config file (e.g. for Claude Desktop on macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json).
get_my_saved_toolsread-onlyReturn the saved AI tools ("My Workflow" stack) of the user who owns the given personal API key from thedailyworkflow.com. The user can generate the key on https://thedailyworkflow.com/my-workflow (section "Personal API key"). Ask the user for the key if you do not have it. Returns: Dict with `count` and `results`: each result has name, url (official site), page_url (catalog page), pricing and health (liveness status: alive / protected / slow / dead / unknown — re-checked every 4 hours). Use this when the user asks about "my tools", "my stack", "what did I save" in the context of TheDailyWorkflow.
get_my_stack_healthread-onlyHealth summary of the user's saved stack on thedailyworkflow.com: how many of their tools are alive, protected, slow or dead, and which ones are dead. Needs the personal API key (see get_my_saved_tools). Use this when the user asks whether their tools are up, or wants a status report on their AI stack.
get_pipeline_detailsread-onlyFull pipeline: title, goal, all steps with tools, instructions, prompts, pricing. Args: slug: Pipeline slug (from search_pipelines). lang: "en" or "ru" (default "en"). Returns: Dict with title, goal, steps (each: step number, title, tool_name, tool_type, instruction, prompt_example, pricing, category, tool_url), step_count, page_url. Use this to give the user a complete actionable plan with copy-paste prompts.
get_popular_pipelinesread-onlyTop-N most-used pipelines by hit count — what other users have found valuable. Args: lang: "en" or "ru" (default "en"). limit: Max results (1-25, default 10). Returns: Same shape as search_pipelines, sorted by hits descending. Use this for inspiration ("what can I do with AI?", "show me popular AI workflows").
get_tutorial_detailsread-onlyFull tutorial content (markdown) with all steps, code blocks, screenshots. Args: slug: Tutorial slug (from search_mcp_tutorials). lang: en | ru. Default: en. Returns: Dict with title, summary, content (full markdown), difficulty, category, target_client, target_server, target_category, estimated_minutes, word_count, views_count, page_url. Use this AFTER finding a relevant tutorial via search. The `content` field has full markdown — render it directly to the user, or extract the install commands / config snippets they asked about.
list_ai_tool_categoriesread-onlyList all AI tool categories in the catalog with counts. Returns: Dict with `count` and `categories` (list of {name, count}). Useful when the user wants to browse tools by category.
list_mcp_categoriesread-onlyList all MCP categories in the catalog with counts. Returns: Dict with `count` (total categories) and `categories` (list of {name, count}). Useful when the user wants to browse by category or asks "what kinds of MCP servers exist".
