- `list_all_monologues_for_a_character`: List every monologue spoken by a given character (e.g. 'Hamlet', 'Rosalind'). Matches the character name exactly first, then as a substring.
- `list_plays`: List Shakespeare's plays with their classification (Comedy/History/Tragedy) and monologue counts.
- `random_monologue`: Return one random monologue, with optional gender/play filters. Useful for a suggestion when the user is undecided.
- `search_monologues`: Search Shakespeare monologues by free text (matches character, play, or first line) plus optional filters. Returns matches, each with a permalink `url`.
- `send_feedback`: Send feedback about this Shakespeare monologues server: a monologue, play or capability you needed that its tools could not provide, a problem with a result, or praise. Only for feedback about these tools, not about other tasks. Do not include personal information about the user.
