## Tools (2)

- `norse_get_inflections`: Fetch the full declension (nominals) or conjugation (verbs — active AND
mediopassive) tables for a lemma identified by a search result's inflection
handle (entry_id + word_class). Use this only when a search ran without
inline forms or left a match un-expanded — a default search already returns
each match's table inline. Returns Markdown plus the table as
structuredContent with the shape {"result": <paradigm>} per the declared
outputSchema — switch on result.category ('nominal' | 'verbal' |
'not_found') before reading the body. Content from en.wiktionary.org
(CC BY-SA 4.0).

- `norse_search`: Look an Old Norse word up on Wiktionary and return its senses plus full
declension/conjugation tables — attested content (including the verbs'
mediopassive voice), not invented. Any form of the word works; an
inflected query is resolved to its lemma automatically via previously
cached paradigms and the result notes the resolution. With
search_language='eng' the query is an English word instead: the result
lists its per-sense Old Norse equivalents (the translations block) plus
their expanded entries. Returns Markdown plus the same result as
structuredContent matching the declared outputSchema.

Results are cached server-side; first-time queries reach the live upstream
politely and calls are rate limited — on a rate-limit error, wait a few
seconds and retry. Content is from en.wiktionary.org (CC BY-SA 4.0 —
attribute and share alike if republished).
