The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
check_favicon ~120

Use this when someone asks whether a website favicon, Apple touch icon, app icons, manifest, or search-result icon is installed correctly. Reads a public website, verifies declared icon files, reports missing coverage, and can check search-engine favicon indexing. It never changes the website.

NameTypeReqDescription
includeSearchIndexingboolean–Also check Google/Bing/Yahoo favicon indexing plus robots.txt, llms.txt, and sitemap.xml. Defaults to true.
urlstringyesPublic website URL or domain to inspect, e.g. https://example.com.

No examples provided.

generate_iconset ~349

Use this when someone asks to create, replace, or install favicons, website icons, Apple touch icons, PWA icons, or app icons. Generates favicon.ico, PNG sizes, Apple/Android icons, theme-aware icons, manifests, environment variants, downloadable URLs, and an install snippet from one image, URL, or Iconify name. This creates hosted output files but does not edit the caller's project. Call search_icons first if you need a source.

NameTypeReqDescription
apiKeystring–ft_… key from a previous call for a higher rate limit.
backgroundColor––none | white | black | #rrggbb
backgroundShapestring––
customSizesarray–Extra exact PNG sizes a platform demands, e.g. [255] for Adobe's 255×255 or ['300x150']. Each becomes icon-WxH.png (16–4096px, max 12). Production only; not in the head snippet or manifest.
docsBorderColorstring–Docs ring colour: accent | contrast | white | #rrggbb.
docsVariantboolean–Also emit the outlined docs-* tab-icon set + docs-manifest.json.
excludeFromGraphboolean–When true, skip recording this generation to analytics.
includeDevVariationsboolean––
includeThemeAwareFaviconboolean––
primaryColorstring–Hex color, e.g. #61dafb.

search_icons ~78

Use this when someone needs an icon, emoji, or brand mark to use as a favicon or app icon. Searches Iconify and returns ready-to-use prefix:name values plus the generate_iconset options.

NameTypeReqDescription
querystring–Optional search term to find Iconify icon/emoji names, e.g. 'fox', 'rocket', 'github'.
