23 tools

• diagnose_trace

  Diagnose why an AI agent run failed. Returns a structured verdict (failure_class, failed_at_step, root_cause, fix_suggestion, confidence). LATENCY: known patterns return library-instant (<1s); a NOVEL failure needs an LLM call and can take up to ~25s — set your client timeout to…

• diagnose_batch

  Diagnose SEVERAL traces in one call (up to 20). Each trace is metered like a separate diagnose_trace. Returns a verdicts array (per-trace, order preserved); a bad trace in the batch is isolated and doesn't fail the rest. Use for post-run analysis of many failures at once instead…

• get_verdict

  Fetch a previously produced verdict by its id or by trace_id (your org only).

• preflight

  BEFORE running: get known failure patterns for a given agent setup so you can avoid them. Returns a ranked list of {failure_class, root_cause, fix_suggestion} from Snapback's library. Call this before executing a plan and self-correct.

• submit_feedback

  Tell Snapback whether a verdict was correct (correct=true/false), with an optional free-text note (did the fix work? what was wrong?). ONE rating per verdict — call it AFTER you act on a verdict and see the outcome. Your correction updates the SHARED pattern library (fix…

• get_request_status

  Check what happened to a pattern you requested (from request_pattern's request_id). Returns pending / approved / rejected / in_library so you can see if your suggestion was actioned — the feedback loop isn't a black box. Free, no token.

• my_usage

  See YOUR current usage + remaining allowance so you can self-govern spend: snapbacks (diagnoses) used/cap/remaining, guard checks used/cap/remaining, estimated spend, % used, and when it resets. Call it periodically to avoid surprises. Token-scoped, free.

• my_impact

  See how your feedback + pattern requests have shaped the shared library — how many verdicts you've rated, patterns you've requested, and how many were approved into the library. Turns your input into visible collaboration. Token-scoped to you.

• what_others_did

  THE CROWD: for a failure_class (or pass the family/error and we'll map it), see what OTHER agents did about the same failure and whether it worked — anonymized, aggregated across everyone. Returns {total, agree_pct (community success rate), distinct_orgs, sample_fixes (fixes…

• report_outcome

  Report the outcome of an auto-applied fix (the self-heal interceptor calls this after it gate-applied a fix and retried). Pass failure_class, family, fix, confidence, action_class, and succeeded (did the retry work?). TWO purposes: it's your safety telemetry (spot a fix that…

• recommend_failover

  Should you RETRY the same target, SWITCH provider, FALL BACK to another chain, or STOP? Pass the error + your configured topology (current_chain, available_chains, and/or current_provider, available_providers) and get deterministic routing advice with the reason — so a flaky…

• cascade_root

  Given an ORDERED list of errors from a run (oldest first), find the TRUE root — the error that cascaded or shouldn't have been retried — not just the final symptom you see. E.g. a 429 that got retried and triggered a downstream 401: the root is the 429, not the 401. Each error…

• suggest_budget_recovery

  Approaching a token/context/cost budget mid-run? Pass your counters and get the LEAST-DISRUPTIVE recovery ranked: truncate context | switch to a cheaper model | batch steps | wrap up — scored by speed gained, accuracy lost, cost saved. Turns budget_guard's 'you're at 94%' into…

• request_pattern

  Leave us a message: ask us to add a failure pattern to the library, or report a problem we couldn't diagnose well. Use this when diagnose_trace didn't have a good answer, when you keep hitting a failure we don't classify, or when you want a specific kind of problem supported. It…

• detect_loop

  MID-RUN loop check (fast, no LLM, free). Send your recent steps DURING a run; get back whether you're stuck repeating a tool call and a concrete next move. Call this every few steps to catch a loop BEFORE you burn your step budget — don't wait for a postmortem. Non-blocking…

• session_start

  Open a LIVE mid-run session so Snapback can watch your run step-by-step and warn you in real time (loop / token / cost / context) - the always-on guardian mode. Returns a session_id. Free, no token. Call session_step as you run, session_end when done.

• session_step

  Report ONE step of a live run and get back any warnings immediately (loop detected / budget breach). Pass the step (action + inputs) and any counters you have (step, max_steps, tokens_used, token_budget, cost_used_usd, cost_budget_usd, context_used, context_window, task…

• session_end

  Close a live session and get a short run summary (total steps, duration). Frees the session. Free, no token.

• agent_memory

  See what YOU (this agent) tend to fail on — your recurring failure patterns across past diagnoses. Returns your top failure classes with counts and what share of your failures each is (e.g. 'loop_repeated_tool_call: 12 times, 40%'). Call it before a run to know what to guard…

• budget_guard

  Live MID-RUN budget check (fast, no LLM). Send whatever counters you have and get an advisory on context %, token burn, cost burn, step budget, and off-task drift - with concrete suggested_actions and the projected cost of NOT acting. Call it every few steps to catch a runaway…

• convert_trace

  Turn your raw logs into a Snapback trace so you don't hand-craft JSON. Pass 'source' = a list of log/step entries, or an object with a spans/steps/messages/events/logs array (OTel spans, OpenAI/LangChain message lists, or generic {tool,input,output} arrays all work). Returns…

• search_docs

  Search Snapback's documentation for how to use it — how to format a trace, what each tool does, the failure taxonomy, auth, pricing, and errors. Free and needs no token. Call this first if you're unsure how to format a request or what a verdict means.

• diagnose_infra_error

  Diagnose a cryptic AGENT-INFRASTRUCTURE error — payments (x402/EIP-3009), Solana on-chain (ATA, blockhash, compute), MCP protocol, RPC/providers, EVM & Solana wallets, library of VERIFIED fixes the base model often gets wrong. Pass the error text (and optional context). Returns…
