Provenance No attestation
The registry publishes no build provenance for this version, so there is nothing to verify.

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 →
hcp_api_notes ~207
Look up what the Housecall Pro API actually does for a given topic, as opposed to what its published documentation says. Call this BEFORE concluding that something cannot be done, before retrying a route that returned 404, and after any write that reported success but looks like it changed nothing. It answers from a table of verified behaviour: routes the documentation describes that do not exist, writes that are accepted and silently ignored, and fields whose units are not what they appear to be. Ask in plain words - a topic, a route, a field name, or the thing you were trying to do. Omit the topic to read the whole table. This tool reads a table compiled into this server and makes no API call, so it costs nothing and cannot fail.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| topic | string | – | What you are working on. A route ("PATCH /jobs"), a field ("work_status"), or a goal ("set a job description", "create an invoice"). Omit for everything. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
hcp_get_business_profile ~141
Read the business profile stored for this installation: who the shop is, who they buy from, their pricing rules, their payroll rules, and how their outbound messages should sound. Skills read this before asking setup questions, so an interview answered once is never asked twice; missing_sections is what a first run still has to ask, and each stored section carries the date it was last confirmed. The profile is this installation's own file, on this machine, beside the defaults file. Nothing in it is read from Housecall Pro or sent to it, or to anyone else. An empty profile is the ordinary state of a fresh install, not a problem.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
hcp_render_report ~391
Render a findings report into one self-contained, offline, interactive HTML file — sortable and filterable tables, severity-coded sections, collapsible worklists, selectable rows that copy back to chat, light and dark theme, print. This is a presentation tool: it makes no Housecall Pro call and takes findings you already have. Pass a `report` contract. Required keys: `skill`, `title`, `sections` (an array). Each section has a `title`, an optional `severity` (confident|ok|warning|blocked|info|neutral), and `blocks` (an array). A block is one of: `table` ({columns:[{label,numeric?}], rows:[[cells]], selectable?, collapsedRows?, defaultSort?}), `prose`/`lead` ({html}), `list` ({items,crosses?}), `subhead` ({text}). Optional top-level keys: `kicker`, `stats` (cards), `coverage`, `headline`, `order` (suggested work), `meta`, `generated`, `provenance`, `closing`. In table cells and list items, `` `backticks` `` render as chips, `**stars**` as bold, and `[text](https://...)` as a link opening in a new tab (http/https only) - use it to link records to their pages in the owner's own dashboard. Keep money as display strings; exports and paste-backs show a link's text without the URL. The tool returns the finished HTML. In Claude Code, write it to a `.html` file and give the owner the path; on Claude Desktop, present it as an HTML artifact. On a contract error nothing renders and the exact problems are listed so you can fix and re-call.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| report | object | yes | The report contract object (see the description for its shape). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
hcp_set_business_profile ~306
Store one or more business-profile sections for this installation: shop, vendors, pricing, payroll, comms. Each section replaces the stored section whole, and null clears one - so save a section only after reading the whole section back to the user for a yes. The profile is this installation's own file, on this machine, beside the defaults file. Nothing in it is read from Housecall Pro or sent to it, or to anyone else. The sections hold the shop's own facts, never a customer's, and never credentials: a vendor's account_hint refuses anything that looks like a full account number.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| comms | – | – | How outbound messages should sound: sender name, a short voice sample in the shop's own tone, and the follow-up cadence in days. Pass null to clear the section. |
| payroll | – | – | Payroll rules: when the pay week starts and the commission rules by role. Pass null to clear the section. |
| pricing | – | – | Pricing rules: the margin floor, per-category overrides, and how prices are rounded. Pass null to clear the section. |
| shop | – | – | Who the shop is: trade(s), region, team size, and any peer group they benchmark against. Pass null to clear the section. |
| vendors | – | – | Who they buy from: vendor name, a shipped pack name when one matches, how purchase documents arrive, an account hint (never a full number), and any learned custom layout. Pass null to clear the secti… |
