Sometimes your agent needs a tool that doesn't fit neatly into a category. Maybe it's a quick calculation, a format check, or a utility function. These miscellaneous tools fill the gaps in your agent's toolkit.
All Misc Tools (22)
Your agent gets access to 22 misc tools via the /mcp/misc/ endpoint. Here's the complete list:
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
misc/echo | Echo |
misc/ping | Ping |
misc/null | Null |
misc/true | True Endpoint |
misc/false | False Endpoint |
misc/empty-array | Empty Array |
misc/empty-object | Empty Object |
misc/user-agent | User Agent |
misc/ip-info | Ip Info |
misc/rgb-to-hsl | Rgb To Hsl |
misc/compare | Compare |
misc/sort | Sort Items |
misc/unique | Unique Items |
misc/count | Count Items |
misc/min | Min Value |

Agent Scenarios
Here's how real agents use these tools:
1. General-purpose agent
An assistant agent accesses miscellaneous utilities for one-off tasks that don't fit other categories.
misc/echo
{ "text": "test" }MCP Setup
Add misc tools to your agent in under 2 minutes. Choose your client:
Claude Desktop / Claude Code
Add this to your MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"tinyfn-misc": {
"url": "https://api.tinyfn.io/mcp/misc/",
"headers": {
"X-API-Key": "your-api-key"
}
}
}
}Cursor
Go to Settings > MCP and add a new server:
- Type: SSE
- URL:
https://api.tinyfn.io/mcp/misc/sse - Headers:
X-API-Key: your-api-key
Tip: Use the category-specific endpoint (/mcp/misc/) for the best experience. The all-in-one endpoint (/mcp/all/) works too but has 500+ tools which some clients handle less efficiently.
When to Use These Tools
Use misc MCP tools when your agent needs to:
- Guarantee correctness — when wrong answers have real consequences
- Process user data — when you're operating on actual user input, not hypothetical examples
- Maintain consistency — when the same input must always produce the same output
You don't need these tools for casual conversation or rough estimates. Use them when precision matters.

When should I use misc tools?
Use the misc category when you need utility functions that don't fit into the more specific categories like math, string, or validation.
Can I use multiple MCP categories together?
Yes. You can configure your agent with the /mcp/all/ endpoint to access all 500+ tools across all categories in a single MCP connection.
