• ask_arn ~339 tokens
  Use this when the user asks a research question on the biology of aging, longevity interventions, age-related disease, or the people and companies of the field (does rapamycin extend lifespan in people, who works on epigenetic clocks). Not for personal medical advice, doses or symptoms. Answers in a
• count_pipeline ~792 tokens
  Use this when the user asks how many drug and therapy programs there are, or how a field's pipeline splits. Counts programs by stage, modality, target, hallmark, indication, the developer's country or the developer, each group by stage. Takes list_assets' filters: by=target with indication=obesity c
• find_entities ~396 tokens
  Use this to find the type and key of what a question names (a drug, supplement or diet, a gene or protein, a biological process, a disease, a biomarker, an organism, a method or a hallmark of aging) before get_entity, list_claims or list_grants. Matches part of a name, a key or a known synonym, case
• follow ~202 tokens
  Use this when the user asks to follow a drug, gene, process, disease or other entity on AgingResearch.News, so its new papers reach them in For you and the daily follow email. Takes a type and key from find_entities or get_entity.
• get_ask_answer ~153 tokens
  Use this when ask_arn or start_ultradeep said an answer is still being written, or the user wants it again: the answer with its numbered sources once written, else where it stands. Waits up to 20 seconds for a short answer nearly done; an Ultradeep review takes several minutes.
• get_asset ~238 tokens
  Use this when the user asks about one drug or therapy program by its name or a code name (UBX-1325, BMS-986278): developers and partners, targets, mechanism, modality, indications with stage and source, lifespan evidence, published research, designations (orphan, breakthrough, fast track, PRIME), pa
• get_conference ~358 tokens
  Use this when the user asks about one meeting from list_conferences, or what was presented there: its organizer, site and editions; with `edition`, that edition's abstracts most worth reading, each with the paper it was later published as. An abstract is not a peer-reviewed paper.
• get_entity ~390 tokens
  Use this for questions about one drug, supplement, gene, process or disease: is there human evidence, has it been replicated by independent labs, in which species, which trials test it and how many posted no results, who funds it and which companies are tied to it. Takes a type and key from find_ent
• get_paper ~331 tokens
  Use this when the user wants one paper in depth: what it did and found, in which species and how many subjects, its caveats, who wrote it and where they work. Takes a paper id such as MED-42823970 from another tool's results, or the paper's own DOI, PMID, PMCID, arXiv id or a link to it. Returns how
• get_trial ~176 tokens
  Use this when the user asks about one clinical trial by its registry number (NCT, ISRCTN, ChiCTR, CTRI, CTIS and others): its design, outcomes and dates, every change recorded and the papers that cite it. Show a WHO ICTRP record with its attribution and the day WHO processed it.
• list_assets ~807 tokens
  Use this when the user asks which drugs or therapies are in development against a target, mechanism, hallmark of aging or age-related disease, who develops them and how far each has got. Drug and therapy programs, furthest stage first, with developers, partners, code names, modality, targets, mechan
• list_claims ~424 tokens
  Use this when the user asks what has been found about a relation: does an intervention extend lifespan and in which organisms, what lowers a biomarker. Findings extracted from papers as subject, relation and object (rapamycin extends_lifespan in Mus musculus), with organism, effect size and the pape
• list_conferences ~114 tokens
  Use this when the user asks which meetings on aging research and age-related disease are coming up or were just held. The conference calendar, soonest first, then recent ones, each edition with its dates, place and abstracts held. Read one with get_conference.
• list_follows ~85 tokens
  Use this when the user asks what they follow on AgingResearch.News: entities and saved searches, newest first, each with its page; an entity's id is the type:key unfollow takes.
• list_grants ~486 tokens
  Use this when the user asks who funds work on a target, drug, process or lab, how much and since when. Aging research grants from NIH, the EU (CORDIS), UKRI and Wellcome, newest award first: title, funder, holder, investigators, amount, period and a link to the record. For company financings use lis
• list_news ~322 tokens
  Use this when the user asks about events in aging research and the longevity industry: financings and deals, trial readouts, approvals, policy, conferences. One story per event, newest first, with a link to every outlet that covered it. Not for general or market news.
• list_papers ~923 tokens
  Use this when the user asks what is new: the latest papers in a field, of a study type such as randomized trials, on a body system, or by one author (a name, or an author_id from get_paper). Newest first by the date AgingResearch.News added them, with search_papers' filters and an optional words fil
• list_questions ~109 tokens
  Use this when the user asks about questions they asked AgingResearch.News (Ask) before: their recent conversations, newest first, each with its title and address.
• list_stories ~525 tokens
  Use this when the user wants a readable round-up of recent findings: this week in aging research, the notable results in a field, a list for a journal club. AgingResearch.News's plain-language stories about new papers, newest first, each checked against its paper and given with it. For every paper o
• list_trials ~606 tokens
  Use this when the user asks about clinical trials on aging or an age-related condition: what is recruiting, what changed lately, which trials test a drug, which companies run them. Trials that bear on human aging, newest registry update first, with phase, status, sponsor, size, conditions, intervent
• search_papers ~1064 tokens
  Use this when the user asks what research has found on a question in the biology of aging or an age-related disease, often without the word aging: senolytics, epigenetic clocks, partial reprogramming, mitochondria, NAD+, immune aging, ovarian aging and menopause, neurodegeneration, sarcopenia, long-
