MCP tools · 19 exposed · ~1,526 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 →

Tool Tokens
iyke_click ~75

Click an element. Specify exactly one of `ref` (from iyke_dom), `selector` (CSS), or `text` (innerText match). Refs are most reliable.

NameTypeReqDescription
panestring––
refstring––
selectorstring––
textstring––

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_close ~82

Close a pane (or the focused pane if pane_id omitted). Closes the entire pane and all its tabs — to close a single tab from the in-app keyboard, use ⌘⇧W (⌘W closes the whole pane). Refuses to close the last remaining pane.

NameTypeReqDescription
pane_idstring–Optional. Defaults to focused pane.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_devtools ~31

Open Chrome DevTools for the main webview (debug builds only). Returns 503 in production builds.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_dom ~120

Take an accessibility-tree snapshot of the focused pane. Returns Playwright-style text plus structured JSON. Each interactive element gets a stable ref like e1, e2; pass that ref to iyke_click / iyke_type / iyke_key. Refs invalidate on the next snapshot or page navigation. Use `query` for substring filter, `all=true` to include hidden elements.

NameTypeReqDescription
allboolean–Include hidden + aria-hidden elements.
panestring––
querystring–Substring filter against role/name/value.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_focus ~74

Focus a specific pane. Provide either pane_id (leaf id from iyke_state response — shell.panes.leaves[].id) or index (1-based DFS leaf index, matching the in-app ⌃1..⌃6 keyboard shortcuts).

NameTypeReqDescription
indexinteger––
pane_idstring––

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_go ~77

Navigate the focused pane to a route path inside the Ikenga desktop app (e.g. "/notes/today"). Path must start with "/". This replaces the focused pane's active tab content; use iyke_open with kind=route to add a new tab instead.

NameTypeReqDescription
pathstringyesRoute path, must start with "/".

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_iframe_send ~76

Send a fire-and-forget postMessage to an iframe pane. The iframe bridge listens for known kinds (e.g. "story-select") and acts on the payload. Use to drive mini-app actions from outside the running app.

NameTypeReqDescription
kindstringyes–
panestringyes–
payload–––

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_iframe_state ~61

Read the latest published state object for an iframe pane (storyboard cursor, comp current frame, etc.). Iframes call publishState(key, value) from their iyke-bridge to expose runtime state for inspection.

NameTypeReqDescription
panestringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_key ~105

Dispatch a keyboard combo. Use names like "Enter", "Escape", "Tab", "ArrowDown", and modifiers Ctrl/Alt/Shift/Meta separated by + or , (e.g. "Ctrl+S", "Meta+K"). Optional `ref`/`selector` targets a specific element; otherwise the active element receives.

NameTypeReqDescription
combostringyes–
panestring––
refstring––
selectorstring––

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_logs ~76

Read recent console + error logs (last 500) from the running webview. Includes window error and unhandledrejection captures.

NameTypeReqDescription
levelstring––
sinceinteger–Only entries with ts >= this (epoch ms).
sourcestring–Filter by pane source ("shell" or leaf id).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_mode ~60

Switch the activity-bar sidebar mode. Valid modes: app, files, agents, sessions, settings, storyboard, video-engine, canvas-design, image-generator. The first five are core; the rest are mini-apps.

NameTypeReqDescription
modestringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_network ~54

Read recent fetch + XHR network activity (last 100). Each entry has method, url, status, duration_ms, and error if it failed.

NameTypeReqDescription
sinceinteger––
sourcestring––

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_open ~128

Open a new tab in the focused pane. `kind` selects the view type. For "route" pass `path`; "terminal" optionally `cmd` (a shell command string); "chat" requires `session_id`; "artifact" requires `path`; "mini-app" requires `name`.

NameTypeReqDescription
cmdstring–For terminal kind. Omit for default login shell.
kindstringyes–
namestring–For mini-app kind.
pathstring–For route or artifact kinds.
session_idstring–For chat kind.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_query_cache ~67

Dump the TanStack Query cache: queryKey, status, fetchStatus, isStale, dataUpdatedAt, errorUpdatedAt, error, and a 200-char data preview for each entry. Useful for diagnosing stale data or failed fetches.

NameTypeReqDescription
panestring––

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_screenshot ~79

Capture a PNG screenshot of either the full window or a specific pane. Returns the saved path, dimensions, and byte count. Default writes to ~/.local/share/ikenga/screenshots/.

NameTypeReqDescription
out_pathstring–Override default output path.
pane_idstring–Required when target=pane.
targetstring––

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

Split the focused pane (or a specific pane via pane_id) into two. "horizontal" splits side-by-side; "vertical" splits top-bottom. Subject to the in-app MAX_LEAVES cap (currently 6).

NameTypeReqDescription
directionstringyes–
pane_idstring–Optional. Defaults to focused pane.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_state ~121

Get the current state of the Ikenga desktop app — sidebar mode, focused pane route, and the full pane tree under shell.panes. shell.panes has shape { leaves: [{ id, focused, activeTabIdx, tabs: [{kind,title}] }], tree: <recursive PaneNode> }; use leaves[].id with iyke_focus or iyke_close (pane_id) to operate on a specific pane. Call this before iyke_go / iyke_mode / iyke_focus / iyke_close to check what the user is currently looking at.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

iyke_type ~82

Type text into an input/textarea/contenteditable element. Specify exactly one of `ref` or `selector`. By default appends; pass `replace=true` to overwrite the existing value.
