- rendex_screenshot
Use this when the user asks to screenshot, capture, or take a picture of a webpage/URL, or to render raw HTML or Markdown to an image or PDF. Do NOT use to get a reusable hosted image URL (use rendex_render_link) or to make a branded multi-format document (use render_artifact). C
- rendex_extract
Use this when the user asks to read, extract, get the text/content/article of, or summarize a webpage/URL. Do NOT use for a visual screenshot (use rendex_screenshot). Extracts clean reader-mode content from any webpage as Markdown, JSON, or HTML. Runs the same Chromium render pas
- rendex_render_link
Use this when the user wants a reusable, HOSTED image URL — an og:image or a link to embed in an <img> tag — rather than the image bytes. Do NOT use for a one-off inline screenshot (use rendex_screenshot). Renders a URL, raw HTML, or Markdown and gives back a signed, hosted, edge
- render_artifact
Use this when the user asks to make or create a branded report, invoice, summary, release notes, or document — or to 'turn this Markdown/HTML into a PDF and PNG' (optionally with a logo or accent color). Do NOT use to screenshot an existing URL (use rendex_screenshot). Turns Mark
- rendex_account
Check the Rendex account: which plan it's on, how many render credits have been used vs. the monthly limit (and when it resets), the per-minute rate limit, and a one-tap link to upgrade to a higher tier. Use this whenever the user asks about their usage, remaining quota, current
- watch_create
Use this when the user asks to monitor, watch, or track a webpage for changes, or to be alerted/notified when a page changes. Do NOT use for a one-time capture (use rendex_screenshot). Creates a Rendex Watch — monitors a URL on a schedule and notifies when it changes (real-Chrome
- watch_test
Dry-run a watch config BEFORE creating it — render the proposed config once and report what was captured + whether the page is reachable (and the text a text-watch would compare). Creates no watch, no baseline, no diff. Use this to validate a selector/scope/identity first. Return
- watch_list
List your watches (newest first), optionally filtered by status and paged. Returns { items, nextCursor }.
- watch_get
Fetch one watch by ID, including its current baseline image URL and status. Returns JSON.
- watch_run
Run an immediate check now (charges 1 credit). Returns the queued run; poll watch_runs for the result or receive a watch.changed webhook.
- watch_runs
Read a watch's run history (newest first), paged. Each run includes changed, diffScore, and signed before/after/overlay image URLs. Returns { items, nextCursor }.
- watch_delete
Delete a watch and its run history. Irreversible.
- watch_update
Update a watch in place — pause/resume (paused), re-point (url), change schedule/diff/notify settings, or turn a channel off (webhookUrl/notifyEmail = null). Only the fields you send change; renderParams is deep-merged over the existing config. A scope change (url/selector/fullPa
