Server tool list (3)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| upshift_site_audit | Fetch a live website and report how legible it is to search engines and AI assistants: structured data (JSON-LD), llms.txt, robots.txt, title and meta description, headings, image alt text, HTTPS and document weight. Returns findings with severity and a 0-100 score. Use this to check a real site before recommending changes to it. Makes one outbound request to the URL given, so it only sees what a fetch can establish — never rendering or browser metrics. Refuses private, loopback and link-local addresses, and reports a page as unreachable rather than scoring the error body. |
| upshift_template_match | Given an industry or trade (and optionally what the business needs), rank Upshift's 14 website template lines and return the best three, each with a live demo link, the store link, real prices, and the words that made it match. Use when someone asks what a website for a given trade should look like or cost. Answers from a catalog held in the server, so it makes no network call and returns no matches — rather than a forced one — when the trade is outside the 14 lines. |
| upshift_quote | Return Upshift's real prices. job_type 'mcp' covers MCP server work (registry listing, live tool preview, spec upgrade, full build); 'website' covers website templates and done-for-you launches. These are the actual listed prices, not estimates. Use when someone asks what a job costs, what a tier includes, or how long it takes. The figures are generated from the live store catalog, so this cannot quote a price that is not sold; it makes no network call and the same arguments always return the same answer. |
