    Reliable (uptime)

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

Capabilities

Tools 5

assess_tattoo_idea

Use when the user describes a specific tattoo idea and asks whether it will hold up at a given size and body placement. Compares the design with published minimum sizes for its kind of design and returns the placement's fade, sun, friction, stretch and curvature estimates, style notes, things to look at and questions for the artist. Lettering is sized by capital letter height (letter_height_mm); everything else by the longest side (size_cm). It does not generate designs, look at images, or give medical advice.

Discovered
check_line_spacing

Use when the user gives a line width and the gap between two lines or letters in millimetres and asks whether the gap will stay open as the tattoo ages. Applies the published rule of thumb that a line widens by about 0.1 mm per decade: returns the line width and gap after the given number of years (default 20), whether the gap meets the guides' 'at least as wide as the line' rule, and what the guide's worked example would do to it. Illustrative arithmetic, not a measurement.

Discovered
compare_tattoo_placements

Use when the user asks how body areas compare for pain, fading, sun, friction, stretch or curvature, or which areas hold ink longest. Returns the ten common areas (or the ones requested), ordered by fade by default. Estimates are coarse 0-100 comparisons, not measurements.

Discovered
get_pre_booking_checklist

Use when the user asks how to decide whether they are ready to book a tattoo, what to ask an artist, or what red flags to watch for in a consultation. Returns a short ordered checklist, the one question to ask when an artist pushes back, how to judge healed work, and consultation red flags.

Discovered
get_tattoo_size_chart

Use when the user asks how big or how small a kind of tattoo can be, or what fits at a given size. Returns the smallest and better size for eight kinds of design (letters by height, other designs by longest side), real-world size comparisons and the small/medium/large ranges. Optional size_cm marks which designs meet their minimum at that size.
