list_questions_by_tag
ActiveTool of mcp-stackexchange
Browse questions by TAG, sorted by votes or recency — answers "top questions tagged <tag>", "trending <tag> questions this week/month", "most-voted <tag> questions". Returns title, score, answer count, whether answered, view count, tags, and link (call get_answers with a returned question_id to read answers). Combine tags with ";" for AND (e.g. "kubernetes;helm"). Distinct from search_questions, which is keyword-based.
