search | Search all WindowsForum content (community threads, Windows news, tutorials) with combined keyword and semantic ranking — the best first call for any question or topic. Keep section 'all' unless the user asks for one kind of content. For the latest/newest items set sort='newest' (a query with no topic, such as 'latest tutorials', returns the newest items). Pass the result ids to render_search_resu params: query*, source, limit, section, sort |
fetch | Retrieve a WindowsForum document by ID for analysis and citation.
Posts are returned in full. Threads include their first 50 visible posts.
Check metadata.truncated and metadata.pagination; continue long threads
with get_thread_posts(thread_id, offset=next_offset). params: id* |
search_semantic | Find WindowsForum discussions by meaning rather than exact words — embedding-based semantic search that excels at natural-language questions and paraphrased topics.
Uses kNN vector similarity to find content that is semantically related
to the query, even if it doesn't share exact keywords. Best for natural
language questions and conceptual searches. params: query*, limit, section |
search_threads | Search WindowsForum threads with structured controls — sort by relevance, date, views or replies, in either order, with pagination; use when result ordering or paging matters. Latest/newest requests replace the default relevance sort with date order; a query such as 'latest tutorials' lists that section without requiring those words in the content. Views/replies sort the complete indexed matching params: query*, sortby, order, from_, size, section, cursor |
get_time | Get the current server date and time — use to anchor time-sensitive queries like 'latest' or 'this week' before searching recent content. params: none |
supplement_status | Get the Key-Facts supplement state for one article thread — lifecycle status (approved/held/validated/draft), whether it is the live 'current' revision, and whether the sidebar card is actually rendering, dark because the article was edited after approval (drifted), or absent.
Use to answer 'why is there no Key-Facts card on thread N?'. params: thread_id* |
corpus_stats | Get aggregate health of the Key-Facts supplement corpus — status histogram, how many eligible articles still have no supplement, how many approved cards went dark from article edits (drifted), and the latest generation run summary. params: none |
list_drifted | List article threads whose approved Key-Facts card is dark because the opening post was edited after approval (content-hash drift). These are exactly what the hourly fill driver repairs next. params: limit |
get_kb_article | Retrieve an official Microsoft Knowledge Base article from support.microsoft.com by KB number (e.g. KB5063878) — returns the update's title, summary, and affected builds.
Use this tool when a user asks about a specific KB number.
Fetches the full article content including title, summary, known issues,
and resolution steps. params: kb_id* |
search_kb | Search official Microsoft Knowledge Base articles for Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server updates by topic, keyword, build, or KB number — use for Windows update, patch, and known-issue lookups when you lack a KB number.
Returns matching KB article titles, release dates, and support.microsoft.com
URLs, newest first. Use get_kb_article to fetch the full content of a specific article. params: query*, limit |
get_thread_posts | Read a page of visible posts in a WindowsForum thread, oldest first.
Follow pagination.next_offset while pagination.has_more to read the
full conversation, including later replies and accepted solutions. params: thread_id*, limit, offset |
search_mysql | Exact substring lookup over thread titles and author usernames, ordered by view count — use for literal title or author matching rather than relevance-ranked full-text search.
Complements the main `search` tool: use this for literal title or author
matching rather than relevance-ranked full-text search. params: query*, limit, section |
search_elastic | Relevance-ranked full-text thread search with explicit offset pagination — use to page through a large result set beyond what the main search tool returns. The total is exact when total_relation is 'eq', otherwise a verified public lower bound ('gte'); use has_more and next_from to continue. If pagination_limited is true, narrow the query or section instead of paging further.
Complements the main params: query*, size, from_, limit, section |
get_thread | Get a WindowsForum thread's metadata by id — title, author, reply and view counts, dates, and canonical URL; use fetch or get_thread_posts to read its content. params: thread_id* |
list_threads | List the newest WindowsForum threads, news articles or tutorials, newest first, with no search query — use when the user asks for the latest, newest or most recent tutorials, news or threads. Pass each item's `id` to render_search_results to show them as a card. params: limit, offset, section |
get_post | Get a single WindowsForum post by post id — returns the post's text, author, thread context, and URL; use when you have a specific post reference to verify or quote. params: post_id* |
get_user | Look up a WindowsForum member's public profile by username or user id — registration date, message count, reaction score, last seen, and profile URL.
Only what a signed-out visitor could see on the member's profile page is
returned: members who limit their profile get a username-only result,
and last seen is omitted for members who hide their online status. params: identifier* |
get_forum | Get a WindowsForum forum section's details by node id — title, description, and thread/message counts; pair with list_threads or get_forum_updates to see its activity. params: forum_id* |
get_forum_updates | Summarize recent WindowsForum activity over the last N hours (default 24) — new threads and posts across the community; use for "what's new" questions. params: hours |
get_online_users | See who is on WindowsForum right now — counts of members, guests, and robots active in the last 15 minutes, with the names of online members who show their online status. params: none |
get_latest_registered_users | List the newest WindowsForum member registrations — use for community-growth questions or to identify recent joiners.
Only confirmed, non-banned accounts are listed, as on the forum's own
"New members" list. params: limit |
get_forum_statistics | Get sitewide WindowsForum statistics — total threads, posts, and members, plus threads and posts created today; use for questions about the community's size and activity. params: none |
search_posts | Search individual WindowsForum posts (not just thread titles) for a keyword or phrase — use to find specific answers, error messages, or fixes buried inside long threads. params: query*, limit, section |
search_users | Find WindowsForum members whose usernames match a query — use to locate a member before calling get_user for their full profile. params: query*, limit |
get_windows_news_posts | Get WindowsForum's recent Windows news coverage from the last N days (default 7) — curated news threads on updates, security patches, and Microsoft announcements. params: days |
render_search_results | Show WindowsForum threads, news articles, tutorials or posts to the user as a result card, grouped by section. Call search or list_threads first, pick the results that answer the request (keep their order), then pass their ids here; the card displays each item's title, snippet, author, date, and link. params: ids*, query |
render_thread | Show a WindowsForum thread to the user as a readable card with its opening post and replies. Use after search or fetch when the user wants to see or open a specific discussion. params: thread_id* |
render_kb_article | Show an official Microsoft Knowledge Base article to the user as a card with its title, highlights, and link to support.microsoft.com. Use when the user asks to see a specific KB article. params: kb_id* |
render_community_overview | Show a WindowsForum.com community overview card: total threads, posts, and members, who is online now, and the latest threads. Use for questions about the community's size or current activity. params: none |
