What deep_research does on Mcp Va Museum

AI agents call deep_research to retrieve information from Mcp Va Museum without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
depth string How many facets to research in parallel: quick=3, standard=5 (default), thorough=8 (paid plans).
question string Yes The research question, in natural language. Broad/multi-part is fine — decomposition is the point.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

Why deep_research needs a policy

deep_research retrieves and queries data from multiple structured sources in parallel, returning search results with metadata. It has no side effects on the data sources themselves—it only reads and aggregates information. The account requirement and authentication mechanism do not change the fundamental read-only nature of the operation.

From the tool's definition The tool performs research queries across structured data sources (SEC filings, FRED/BLS economics, FDA, USPTO patents, markets, science, government records) and returns findings packets with evidence, confidence, and sources.

Questions about deep_research

What does the deep_research tool do? +

ACCOUNT REQUIRED (free — sign in via GitHub at https://pipeworx.io/signup; depth:"thorough" needs a paid plan). If you are not signed in, use ask_pipeworx instead — it works on every tier. Grounded multi-source research across Pipeworx's 1213 STRUCTURED data sources (SEC filings, FRED/BLS economics, FDA, USPTO patents, markets, science, government records, etc.) in ONE call — this is NOT open-web search. Decomposes your question into focused facets, routes each to the right one of 4,676 tools IN PARALLEL, and returns a findings packet: verbatim evidence + confidence + source + fetched_at + a stable pipeworx:// citation per finding, with explicit gaps[] for facets the data couldn't answer (never invented). Best for broad/multi-part questions over structured data ("compare X and Y's regulatory + financial exposure", "research the filings + market picture for ACME"). For a single lookup use ask_pipeworx (one LLM call, not many). For BREAKING or colloquial CURRENT-NEWS / "what's the world saying about X" topics, prefer ask_pipeworx — it routes to live news APIs and the *-news-feeds packs; deep_research returns mostly empty gaps[] when the topic isn't in the structured catalog. Expect 15-60s. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Va Museum MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

What parameters does deep_research accept? +

deep_research accepts 2 parameters: depth, question. Required: question. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on deep_research? +

Register the Mcp Va Museum MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for deep_research: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Mcp Va Museum. Nothing to install.

What risk level is deep_research? +

deep_research is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit deep_research? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the deep_research rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block deep_research completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for deep_research. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides deep_research? +

deep_research is provided by the Mcp Va Museum MCP server (pipeworx-io/mcp-va-museum). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
