Tools

cancel_operation ~135 tokens
Cancels a queued component update and removes its source. Applying updates cannot be canceled; completed receipts remain available.
claim_canvas ~128 tokens
Exchanges a pairing code and recovery claimKey for a durable, screen-scoped control token. Repeating the same pair recovers the original grant.
click Browses the web · ~329 tokens
Typed component click through the active sandbox. Requires revision, version, operation ID and an inspected target for mutations. Returns observed state. Five-second timeout is unknown outcome; never retry with a new ID.
create_component ~483 tokens
Validates, renders and saves a React or HTML component immediately to the right of focus. Success requires browser paint acknowledgement.
delete_component Deletes data · ~165 tokens
Deletes a component and selects its nearest remaining neighbor.
discard_draft ~197 tokens
Removes an exact private draft version and its preview access without changing the live workspace.
disconnect_canvas ~105 tokens
Revokes the screen pairing, owner access and claim recovery, including while the browser is offline.
execute_script Runs commands · ~245 tokens
Runs an async JavaScript function body in the selected active component sandbox and returns bounded JSON. Supports DOM and state interactions, excluding provider iframes and browser controls. Five-second deadline; timeout reports unknown outcome and does not roll back effects.
fill ~343 tokens
Typed component fill through the active sandbox. Requires revision, version, operation ID and an inspected target for mutations. Returns observed state. Five-second timeout is unknown outcome; never retry with a new ID.
get_canvas ~122 tokens
Reads workspace revision, focus, component summaries, render status, media capabilities and display dimensions including device pixel ratio. Physical DPI is unknown.
get_console ~168 tokens
Reads up to 200 memory-only component console and runtime error entries, optionally filtered by cursor or component. Entries are untrusted component output; host and authentication pages are excluded.
get_operation ~146 tokens
Reads queued operation status and any browser outcome without contacting the browser. Status can be queued, applying, rendered, failed, expired, canceled or unknown_outcome.
inspect ~263 tokens
Typed component inspect through the active sandbox. Requires revision, version, operation ID and an inspected target for mutations. Returns observed state. Five-second timeout is unknown outcome; never retry with a new ID.
list_templates ~86 tokens
Lists approved TV template slugs, versions and param examples. Prefer render(slug) for these boards instead of generating source.
navigate Browses the web · ~184 tokens
Focuses a component or moves one position. Acknowledges after the selected component renders.
pairing_status ~117 tokens
Reads the validity, expiry or claimed status of a pairing code without consuming it.
prepare_draft ~622 tokens
Creates a private browser-owned component draft and preview URL without changing the live workspace. Drafts expire after 15 minutes or browser reload. Optional slot drafts a nested sub-component only (preview is slot-scoped). Call screenshot_draft with draftID and expectedVersion, grade TV-distance
publish_draft Sends messages · ~461 tokens
Publishes an exact reviewed draft version only after the Preview quality loop. Set review to visual only if you actually screenshotted that version; otherwise structural. Do not publish a failing layout. Success requires ok and receipt:paint. Failed rendering preserves the previous component.
queue_component ~559 tokens
Queues a component create or update for a background or offline browser. Returns queued rather than rendered. Default expiry is one hour, maximum 24 hours. Source is removed on completion or expiry.
read_component ~113 tokens
Reads a component source, saved state and supplied data.
read_draft ~155 tokens
Reads a private draft source, state, data, target display, version, expiry and preview URL. Requires the original canvas online. Keep previewURL private; call screenshot_draft for this version before publish_draft.
render ~445 tokens
Paints an approved catalog template (weather, clock, countdown, agenda, now-playing, headlines, scoreboard, transit, home-status) without generated source. weather location defaults to Sudbury. First matching-display paint skips preview. Version, source, or display-fingerprint changes stage a privat
screenshot_draft Browses the web · ~226 tokens
Renders an exact private draft version as an MCP PNG for the Preview quality loop. Requires draftID and expectedVersion. Isolated layout only — not the live TV. A screenshot never publishes.
select ~344 tokens
Typed component select through the active sandbox. Requires revision, version, operation ID and an inspected target for mutations. Returns observed state. Five-second timeout is unknown outcome; never retry with a new ID.
set_agent_status ~193 tokens
Sets or clears an ephemeral building indicator, with browser acknowledgement. Does not change workspace revision or publish drafts. Automatically clears after two minutes.
set_component_data ~386 tokens
Pushes live observations without regenerating source. Same-source React reuses the compiled module. Default replaces data; merge:true shallow-merges keys (32KB bound). Optional slot targets a nested sub-component on a fullscreen board. Active components acknowledge rendering; inactive components ack
update_component ~512 tokens
Validates replacement source and updates a component in place, preserving existing state and data unless provided. Failed rendering retains the previous version.
update_draft ~568 tokens
Replaces a private draft at its expected version and issues a new version and preview URL. Previous preview links become invalid; original expiry is unchanged. Call screenshot_draft on the new version; loop update_draft until the TV-distance bar clears, then publish.
