Available components
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score →
Supply Chain Security87
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (95 of 99), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.Partial
- No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
- Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (95 of 99), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree. View diagnostics → Partial

- Tool/resource definitions use about 1206 tokens (~86/item across 14 items; 11 tools + 3 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
- Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass

The dependency tree was only partially resolved, so these counts may be incomplete.
The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability.
book_outline Book outline ~38
The map of Open and Async: every section and chapter with a one-line TL;DR. Use it to find the right chapter for a topic.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
convert_meeting_to_async Convert a meeting to async ~81
Given a meeting's purpose or agenda, propose the async equivalent: the artifact that replaces it, where it lives, who decides, and the deadline. Meetings are a point of escalation, not the default.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| agenda | array | — | Agenda items, if any. |
| purpose | string | yes | Why the meeting exists / what it's meant to accomplish. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
draft_decision_doc Draft a decision doc (ADR) ~100
Turn a decision plus its options into a structured, async-friendly decision record (ADR): context, options with tradeoffs, the decision, and its reversibility. Write the decision down so others can follow it without a meeting.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| context | string | — | Background: what forces this decision now. |
| decision | string | yes | The decision to be made, in one line. |
| options | array | — | Candidate options. Two or three is plenty. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_chapter_summary Get a chapter summary ~59
Return a chapter's TL;DR plus its taglines and a link to read the full chapter. Summary only — no body text.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| slug | string | yes | Chapter slug, e.g. 'impact-over-input' (from book_outline). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_guidance Get role-aware guidance ~71
Role-aware guidance (manager or IC) for a topic, paraphrased from the book's role callouts, with a chapter citation.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| role | string | — | Audience: 'manager', 'ic', or 'any' (default). |
| topic | string | yes | The topic you want guidance on. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_taglines Get taglines ~46
Return the book's shareable taglines and their quote-card URLs. Optionally filter to one chapter.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| chapter | string | — | Chapter slug to filter by (omit for all). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
handle_objection Handle an objection ~54
Map a common objection to open/async work ('async is slow', 'remote kills culture') to the book's reframe, with a chapter citation.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| objection | string | yes | The skepticism or pushback to address. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
run_async_standup Async standup template ~69
Return a structured async-standup prompt a team can adopt in any chat or issue — replaces the daily sync standup with a written, searchable thread that respects every time zone.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| cadence | string | — | e.g. 'daily', 'twice a week'. Defaults to daily. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
score_status_update Score a status update ~58
Score a draft status update against the 'work loudly / no surprises' rubric and suggest fixes. Good updates surface blockers early, state outcomes over activity, and link to the work.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| update | string | yes | The draft status update to score. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_principles Search the book's principles ~79
Keyword search across the book's summary corpus (TL;DRs, key-takeaways, taglines, and reviewed frameworks). Returns short, cited snippets — a snippet view, not full text.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |

| limit | integer | — | Max results (default 5, capped at 10). |
| query | string | yes | What you're looking for. |
No output schema declared.

triage_sync_vs_async Triage: sync or async? ~64
Recommend whether a task should be handled synchronously or asynchronously, using the decision rule from 'meetings are a point of escalation.' Async is the default; sync is the escalation.
