follow Follow ~141
Follow an organization or a product so it appears in your personalized feed (`get_personalized_feed`). Following an organization implicitly includes all of its products. Requires a signed-in user (a `relu_` user key or an OAuth token). `entity` is a typed id — an `org_…` id or a `prod_…` id — as returned by `search`, `get_organization`, or `get_catalog_entry`. Idempotent: following something you already follow is a no-op.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| entity | string | yes | Entity to follow — an `org_…` or `prod_…` id (from search / get_* results). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_catalog_entry Get catalog entry ~433
Detail for a single catalog entry — accepts a prod_ id, src_ id, or an org-scoped coordinate in the form orgSlug/slug (e.g. 'vercel/nextjs' or 'vercel/next-js'). Returns the union of product / source detail fields depending on the entry kind. Source entries list tracked CHANGELOG files by path and byte size. Pass `include_changelog: true` to inline the root CHANGELOG, or `changelog_path` / `changelog_offset` / `changelog_limit` / `changelog_tokens` to embed a specific file or slice — heading-aligned, supports per-package files in monorepos (e.g. `packages/next/CHANGELOG.md`), and emits `totalTokens` / `sliceTokens` for LLM context budgeting. Files over 1MB are flagged as truncated so you know the tail is missing.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| changelog_limit | number | — | Target slice size in characters. Slice ends at a heading boundary. Defaults to 40000 when slicing without a token budget. Passing this implies include_changelog. |
| changelog_offset | number | — | Character offset into the selected CHANGELOG. Snapped forward to the next heading unless 0. Passing this implies include_changelog. |
| changelog_path | string | — | Specific CHANGELOG path for a source-kind entry (e.g. 'packages/next/CHANGELOG.md'). Passing this implies include_changelog. |
| changelog_tokens | number | — | Target slice size in tokens (cl100k_base). Takes precedence over changelog_limit. Recommended brackets: 2000, 5000, 10000, 20000. Passing this implies include_changelog. |
| identifier | string | yes | Catalog entry identifier: prod_ id, src_ id, or org-scoped coordinate orgSlug/slug (e.g. 'vercel/nextjs'). Bare slugs without an org prefix are not accepted. |
| include_changelog | boolean | — | When true, inline the root tracked CHANGELOG for a source-kind entry. Ignored for products. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_collection Get collection ~66
Detail for a single collection — name, description, and the ordered list of member organizations. Hidden / on-demand orgs never leak through; only publicly visible orgs appear in the member list.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| slug | string | yes | Collection slug (e.g. 'frontier-ai-labs'). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_collection_releases Get collection releases ~234
Interleaved cross-org release feed for a collection — same shape as `get_latest_releases` but scoped to the collection's member orgs. Cursor-paginated: pass `limit` for slice size (default 20), `cursor` to continue from a prior call. The result's `_meta.pagination` carries `kind: 'cursor'`, `hasMore`, and `nextCursor` when more rows exist; the response text echoes `nextCursor` so an LLM caller can chain without parsing `_meta`. Cursors are stable under inserts.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| cursor | string | — | Opaque continuation token from a prior call's `_meta.pagination.nextCursor`. Stale cursors are silently ignored — the call returns a fresh head of the feed. |
| include_prereleases | boolean | — | Include prerelease tags (alphas, betas, RCs). Defaults to false so the feed matches the public web view. |
| limit | integer | — | Slice size (1–200). Defaults to 20. |
| slug | string | yes | Collection slug (e.g. 'frontier-ai-labs'). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_latest_releases Get latest releases ~660
Get the most recent releases, optionally filtered by product or organization. Excludes prereleases (canaries / alphas / betas / RCs) by default — pass `include_prereleases: true` to include them. Cursor-paginated: pass `limit` for slice size (default 10), `cursor` to continue from a prior call. The result's `_meta.pagination` carries `kind: 'cursor'`, `hasMore`, and `nextCursor` when more rows exist; the response text echoes `nextCursor` so an LLM caller can chain without parsing `_meta`. Cursors are stable under inserts — a release added between calls won't shift the slice.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| cursor | string | — | Opaque continuation token from a prior call's `_meta.pagination.nextCursor`. Pass to fetch the next slice. Stale cursors are silently ignored — the call returns a fresh head of the feed. |
| include_coverage | boolean | — | Include releases grouped as coverage of another (e.g. marketing posts that re-announce a platform release). Defaults to false so each underlying launch appears once. |
| include_prereleases | boolean | — | Include prerelease tags (alphas, betas, RCs, canaries). Defaults to false so the feed matches the public web view. |
| kind | string | — | Filter to releases from sources of a specific kind. Resolves through `source.kind ?? product.kind`, so an SDK repo with no own kind still matches its product's kind. Omit to include all kinds. |
| limit | integer | — | Slice size (1–200). Defaults to 10. |
| minImportance | integer | — | Only include releases with an AI-scored `importance` >= this value (1-5; 5=landmark, 1=housekeeping). Releases with no score (unscored) are excluded when this is set. Mirrors the REST `?minImportance… |
| organization | string | — | Filter to sources belonging to this organization. Accepts an org_ id, slug, or registered domain. |
| product | string | — | Filter to a product's cross-source release feed. Accepts a prod_ id (expands to ALL sources under the product), a src_ id (single source), or an org-scoped coordinate in the form orgSlug/productSlug… |
| since | string | — | Keep only releases published at or after this bound. Accepts an ISO date/datetime (`2026-01-01`) or relative shorthand (`90d`, `4w`, `6m`, `2y`). Filters `published_at`; undated releases are dropped. |
| type | string | — | Filter by release type: 'feature' for individual releases, 'rollup' for seasonal/quarterly catch-all posts. Omit to include both. |
| until | string | — | Keep only releases published at or before this bound. Same input formats as `since`. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_organization Get organization ~123
Get detailed information about a single organization — accounts, tags, sources, products, aliases. When an AI-generated overview exists the response includes a short preview; pass `include_overview: true` to inline the full briefing (with a stale warning if the content is older than 30 days since last write).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| identifier | string | yes | Organization identifier. Accepts an org_ id, slug, domain, name, or account handle. |
| include_overview | boolean | — | When true, inline the full AI-generated overview instead of the default first-paragraph preview. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_personalized_feed Get personalized feed ~123
Your personalized release feed — recent releases from the organizations and products you follow, newest first. Requires a signed-in user. Same item shape as `get_latest_releases`, scoped to your follows. Cursor-paginated: pass `cursor` from a prior response's `_meta.pagination.nextCursor` and optional `limit` (1–100, default 30).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| cursor | string | — | Opaque cursor from a previous page's `_meta.pagination.nextCursor`. |
| limit | integer | — | Entries per page (1–100). Defaults to 30. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_release Get release ~95
Fetch the full content of a single release by id. Release ids are returned by search or get_latest_releases — pass them here to read the whole entry (e.g. to quote a specific Next.js release note). Accepts the full rel_<nanoid> form or the bare 21-char nanoid.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | yes | Release id — 'rel_<nanoid>' or a bare 21-char nanoid |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_catalog List catalog ~255
List catalog entries — products and standalone sources combined into one list with an `entryType: 'product' | 'source'` discriminator per row. Orgs that group multiple sources under a product (e.g. Vercel → Next.js, Turborepo) surface those products; orgs with a single source that isn't part of a product surface it directly as an `entryType: 'source'` entry. Either shape is a reasonable thing to pass to `search(entity: ...)`. Paginated: defaults to 50 entries per page. Pass `page: 2` for the next slice. The footer surfaces the total when more pages exist.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| kind | string | — | Filter to catalog entries of a specific kind. Matches each row's own kind (a product's kind, or a standalone source's kind) — no source→product inheritance on this catalog surface. Omit to include al… |
| limit | integer | — | Entries per page (1–200). Defaults to 50. |
| organization | string | — | Organization to scope to. Accepts an org_ id, slug, domain, or name. |
| page | integer | — | 1-based page number. Defaults to 1. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_collections List collections ~123
List curated collections — named cross-org playlists (e.g. 'Frontier AI Labs') independent of the fixed category taxonomy. Use `get_collection` for a collection's full member list, or `get_collection_releases` for the interleaved cross-org release feed. Paginated: defaults to 50 entries per page; pass `page: 2` for the next slice.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | — | Entries per page (1–200). Defaults to 50. |
| page | integer | — | 1-based page number. Defaults to 1. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_follows List follows ~27
List the organizations and products you follow (newest first). Requires a signed-in user.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_organizations List organizations ~231
List all indexed organizations, optionally filtered. Paginated: defaults to 50 entries per page; pass `page: 2` for the next slice. Orgs with zero indexed releases are hidden by default (curator-stub noise); set `include_empty: true` to see them.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| category | string | — | Filter to a single category slug (e.g. `ai`, `devops`). Aliases (e.g. `e-commerce`) resolve to their canonical category (`commerce`); unknown values are ignored (unfiltered). |
| include_empty | boolean | — | Include orgs with zero indexed releases. Default false — empty orgs are stubs from in-flight discovery or broken parsers and surface as noise on the public catalog. |
| limit | integer | — | Entries per page (1–200). Defaults to 50. |
| page | integer | — | 1-based page number. Defaults to 1. |
| platform | string | — | Filter to orgs with an account on this platform |
| query | string | — | Search across org name, slug, domain, and account handles |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
lookup_domain Lookup by domain ~162
Resolve a domain to the org or product that owns it. The domain is normalized first (scheme, `www.`, path, and trailing slash stripped, lowercased), so `https://vercel.com/about` and `vercel.com` both look up the same row. Returns the matching org (with primary-vs-alias distinction) and any products whose alias targets the same domain. Pure resolution — does not probe the domain or materialize anything; unknown domains surface a 'no match' message. Use `lookup_domain` when you have a URL-shaped input; use `get_organization` when you already have a slug or id.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| domain | string | yes | Domain to resolve. Any URL-shaped form is accepted; the server normalizes it. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search Search ~939
Unified search across the registry and release content. Returns up to four sections — organizations, catalog entries (products + standalone sources folded into one list), curated collections (cross-org playlists), and releases with CHANGELOG chunks interleaved by relevance. Use `type` to narrow the surfaces you want and skip the expensive paths. For example, pass `type: ['catalog']` to look up a known entity by name (fast, registry-only); pass `type: ['releases']` when you only care about release content and want to avoid entity lookups. Omit `type` to search all four. Collections surface via two paths: a direct match on the collection's name/description (lexical in every mode, plus a vector match in hybrid/semantic mode) and a member rollup that includes every collection containing one of the matched orgs. Member rollups carry a list of result-set org slugs that triggered the rollup so a UI can render an "includes X" hint. Use `entity` (product slug / prod_ id OR source slug / src_ id) to scope release results to one catalog entry. Product identifiers expand to every source under the product. Use `organization` to scope to a whole org. Release retrieval defaults to hybrid (FTS5 + semantic vectors fused via RRF); it silently degrades to lexical when vector infra is unavailable and flags the result.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| domain | string | — | Scope to the org owning this domain. Input is normalized (scheme/path/www stripped, lowercased), so `https://vercel.com/` and `vercel.com` both work. Falls back to a 'no match' message when the domai… |
| entity | string | — | Scope release results to one catalog entry. Accepts a prod_ id (expands to every source under the product), a src_ id, or an org-scoped coordinate in the form orgSlug/slug (e.g. 'vercel/nextjs'). Bar… |
| include_coverage | boolean | — | Include releases grouped as coverage of another (e.g. marketing posts that re-announce a platform release). Defaults to false so each underlying launch appears once. |
| include_empty | boolean | — | Include orgs with zero indexed releases in the `orgs` section. Default false — empty orgs are stubs and surface as noise. Scoping by `domain` ignores this and always returns the resolved org. |
| kind | string | — | Filter to a specific source/product kind. Release hits resolve through `source.kind ?? product.kind`; catalog hits filter on the row's own kind. The orgs and collections sections are unaffected; chan… |
| limit | number | — | Max results per section (default 20) |
| mode | string | — | Release-retrieval strategy. 'hybrid' (default) fuses FTS + vector results. 'lexical' is legacy FTS only. 'semantic' is vectors only. Falls back to lexical if vector infra is unavailable. |
| organization | string | — | Scope release results to sources belonging to this organization. Accepts an org_ id, slug, or registered domain. |
| product | string | — | Scope release results to a specific product's sources. Accepts a prod_ id or an org-scoped coordinate in the form orgSlug/productSlug (e.g. 'vercel/next-js'). Bare slugs without an org prefix are not… |
| query | string | yes | Search query |
| since | string | — | Keep only release hits published at or after this bound. Accepts an ISO date/datetime (`2026-01-01`) or relative shorthand (`90d`, `4w`, `6m`, `2y`). Filters `published_at`; undated releases are drop… |
| type | array | — | Which sections to return. Omit to return all four. Use to skip expensive paths — e.g. ['catalog'] for registry-only lookups, ['releases'] for pure release search, ['collections'] for a quick playlist… |
| until | string | — | Keep only release hits published at or before this bound. Same input formats as `since`. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
unfollow Unfollow ~80
Stop following an organization or product. Requires a signed-in user. `entity` is an `org_…` or `prod_…` id. Idempotent: unfollowing something you don't follow is a no-op.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| entity | string | yes | Entity to unfollow — an `org_…` or `prod_…` id. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
whats_changed What's changed ~258
Given a package and a `from`/`to` version, return the changelog entries between them — `(from, to]`, from exclusive, to inclusive — with summaries and breaking-change verdicts. One call instead of reading N changelog pages to plan an upgrade. `package` is a tracked source slug or a GitHub `owner/repo` coordinate (set `ecosystem: "github"` for a bare coordinate). Reads already-indexed releases only. If the package isn't in the catalog you'll get a clear 'not tracked' answer (npm/PyPI names may not be mapped to a source yet).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ecosystem | string | — | Optional resolution hint; "github" enables matching a bare owner/repo. |
| from | string | yes | Version you're upgrading FROM (exclusive). |
| minImportance | integer | — | Only include entries with an AI-scored `importance` >= this value (1-5; 5=landmark, 1=housekeeping). Entries with no score (unscored) are excluded when this is set. |
| package | string | yes | Package identifier — a source slug or a GitHub "owner/repo" coordinate. |
| to | string | yes | Version you're upgrading TO (inclusive). |
No output schema declared.
