Get term info for a VFB or anatomy ontology entity (VFB_*, FBbt_*, etc.). THIS IS THE QUERY DISCOVERY TOOL: the response's "Queries" array lists the valid query_type values that run_query accepts for this entity. ALWAYS call get_term_info before run_query unless you already obtained the query_type from a previous get_term_info call in this conversation. Returns: SuperTypes (classification), Tags (data flags like has_image, has_neuron_connectivity), Queries (valid query_types for run_query), RelatedTools (other MCP tools applicable to this entity, with default_args ready to copy — e.g. get_hierarchy with subclass_of for cell types or part_of for nervous-system regions), Images (keyed by template brain ID), Publications, Synonyms. Supports batch — pass an array of IDs to fetch in parallel; batch results are returned as a JSON object keyed by ID. To build VFB browser URLs from the Images field: https://v2.virtualflybrain.org/org.geppetto.frontend/geppetto?id=<VFB_ID>&i=<TEMPLATE_ID>,<IMAGE_ID1>,<IMAGE_ID2> — id= sets the focus term and i= lists images for the 3D viewer (template ID must be first in i= to set the coordinate space).
