• draw_constraint ~550 tokens
  Draws from Pipeworx's original 162-card creative-constraints deck (perspective, limitation, medium, time, audience, inversion, scale, process, wildcard) — each card is one imperative sentence an agent or team can apply to any task (a launch, an essay, an onboarding flow, a dinner), with a one-senten
• get_constraint ~143 tokens
  Fetches one specific card from Pipeworx's original creative-constraints deck by its id (e.g. "inversion_03") — returns its category, title, the constraint sentence and why it helps. Use list_constraint_categories or a draw_constraint result to find real ids.
• list_constraint_categories ~116 tokens
  Lists the nine categories in Pipeworx's original creative-constraints deck (perspective, limitation, medium, time, audience, inversion, scale, process, wildcard), each with its card count and one example title — use this to decide what to pass as draw_constraint's `categories` filter.
