Tools (6)

Read from the source code; the running server may differ. Descriptions are the server’s own words; hidden characters are shown as [U+…].

  • command_runcan change or delete data

    Run one mirrorable Cobra command by its space-separated command path.

  • command_searchread-only

    Search and inspect mirrorable Cobra commands exposed through the command orchestration facade.

  • contextread-only

    Get API domain context: resource taxonomy, auth requirements, query tips, and unique capabilities. Call this first.

  • searchread-only

    Full-text search across synced data. Set fulltext to resolve synced PDF-text hits to parent items. Requires sync first. Large responses are bounded to the MCP tool-result budget.

  • sqlread-only

    Run read-only SQL against local database. Use for ad-hoc analysis, aggregations, and joins across synced resources. Requires sync first. Returns a JSON object with rows, truncated, and row_limit; large responses are bounded to the MCP tool-result budget.

  • workflow_submitcan change or delete data

    Submit an inline multi-step workflow executed by zotio's workflow runner — previews unless yes; one approval, one journal run id; steps apply in order and a failed step does not roll back earlier writes; steps validated per-command exactly like command_run.
