MCP tools · 35 exposed · ~2,864 tokens

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. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vet-list ~116

issueListPathstring–Path to issue list file (auto-detected if not specified)
pruneboolean–After vetting, remove completed/skipped items from the file

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

work-claim ~287

Claim an item so other sessions and machines see it is being worked on: an issue with kind "implementation" while a fix is built in the background (needs worktree or runId; refused past maxConcurrentImplementations or when another implementation uses the same worktree on this machine), or a PR with kind "pr" while this session does Tier 2 work on it. Re-claiming renews this session's claim; a claim another session holds is refused unless takeover is true. synced: false means the claim exists on this machine only.

NameTypeReqDescription
branchstring–Branch the implementation is on
kindstringyesimplementation (issue) or pr (PR)
runIdstring–Remote worker run id when the implementation runs off-machine
sessionstringyesName of the session taking the claim, e.g. air/20261102T120733-3f9a

worktreestring–Absolute path of the checkout the implementation runs in; one running implementation per checkout

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

work-finish ~87

NameTypeReqDescription
sessionstring–Refuse unless the live claim belongs to this session
urlstringyesIssue URL of the implementation claim

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

work-list ~32

List live work claims across sessions and machines: implementations running or finished in the background, and PRs other sessions hold.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

work-release ~92

Drop the claim on a URL, or every claim a session holds (session, optionally only one kind). Session End releases its pr claims this way. Releasing an unclaimed item is not an error.

sessionstring–Release every claim this session holds
urlstring–Issue or PR URL whose claim to drop

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.
