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 →
create_apap_agreement_docx ~92
Render APAP Concerto agreement data for an eligible OpenAgreements template as a local DOCX. Returns a path, never inline base64.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| agreement_data | object | yes | APAP agreement data carrying the template Concerto $class and field values. |
| output_path | string | – | Optional local DOCX output path. |
| template_id | string | yes | Eligible OpenAgreements template ID. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
fill_template ~98
Fill a template using local OpenAgreements CLI and return local path or inline base64.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| output_path | string | – | Optional output DOCX path. Defaults to a temporary location. |
| return_mode | string | – | Return local file path or inline base64 document data. |
| template | string | yes | Template ID, e.g. "common-paper-mutual-nda". |
| values | object | – | Template field values passed to the fill command. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_apap_template ~59
Export an eligible OpenAgreements-authored template as an APAP Template payload and its ready-to-use Agreement.template relationship, preserving canonical source, version, license, and attribution.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| template_id | string | yes | Eligible OpenAgreements template ID. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_content ~121
Fetch one OpenAgreements content item by its stable content_id (from list_content). Markdown content (practice guides, checklists, surveys) returns the full canonical document plus source/provenance metadata; template content returns the same full definition as get_template under a "template" key.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| content_id | string | yes | Stable content ID, e.g. "template/common-paper-mutual-nda", "practice_guide/wage-and-hour/us", "checklist/safes/yc-post-money-safe-valuation-cap", or "survey/non-compete/us". |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_forms_survey_evidence ~207
Fetch evidence from a published OpenAgreements forms-provider survey (clause-by-clause market benchmarks of real-world forms). Without requirement_id, returns a summary: survey metadata (including as_of freshness), the compared requirements, and the surveyed forms — but no evidence cells. With requirement_id, additionally returns that one requirement's evidence cells across all surveyed forms (verbatim sentence, operative phrase, section, clause id). The complete dataset for each survey is also available as an MCP resource (see resources/list); large surveys approach 1 MB, so prefer this tool when only part of the evidence is needed. Only currently published surveys are reachable; the live listing is discovered from openagreements.org and never hardcoded.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| requirement_id | string | – | Optional requirement id (from the summary's requirements list) to return that requirement's evidence cells. |
| topic | string | yes | Survey topic slug, e.g. "employment-offer-letter". Discover slugs via resources/list. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_template ~38
Fetch a single template definition with field metadata.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| template_id | string | yes | Template ID, e.g. "common-paper-mutual-nda". |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_content ~244
List all first-class OpenAgreements content — fillable templates, practice guides, RFC 2119-style reviewer checklists, and law surveys — as one paginated compact catalog with stable content IDs in deterministic lexicographic order. Returns lightweight metadata for discovery; call get_content (or get_template) for the full item. Non-template content is served from a local open-agreements repository checkout; when it is not available in this runtime, the affected types are reported under unavailable_types with a reason instead of appearing as silently empty.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| cursor | string | – | Opaque pagination cursor returned by a prior call. Omit on the first page. |
| limit | integer | – | Page size (default 25, max 100). |
| query | string | – | Optional case-insensitive substring filter matched against content ID, title, description, and topic. |
| type | string | – | Optional content-type filter: "template" (fillable DOCX templates), "practice_guide" (source-cited legal practice guides), "checklist" (clause-by-clause reviewer checklists), or "survey" (state-by-st… |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_templates ~88
List OpenAgreements templates as a paginated compact catalog. Returns lightweight metadata for discovery — call get_template for full per-field detail. Templates are returned in stable lexicographic order by template_id.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| cursor | string | – | Opaque pagination cursor returned by a prior call. Omit on the first page. |
| limit | integer | – | Page size (default 25, max 100). |
No output schema declared.
