- get_trident_spec
Returns the complete Trident 2D specification including grammar, syntax rules, coordinate system, containers, nodes, connections, shapes, and icon reference. Use this when you need deep understanding of the Trident DSL.
- get_generator_guide
Returns LLM-optimized instructions for generating Trident diagrams, including quick reference, critical rules (especially Y-axis!), spacing guidelines, common patterns, color conventions, and error prevention checklist. Use this before generating any Trident diagram.
- get_comprehensive_example
Returns a comprehensive Trident example demonstrating all syntax features including containers, nodes (traditional and bracket-style syntax), diamond/rectangle shapes, icons, connections with labels, routing modes, cards, and text annotations. Use this to see all features in acti
- validate_trident
Returns a comprehensive validation checklist for Trident diagrams covering syntax rules, semantic rules, best practices, and common mistakes to avoid. Use this after generating a diagram to verify correctness.
- get_quick_start
Returns a condensed 2-minute quick-start guide with minimal working examples, core syntax reference, and key concepts. Use this for rapid learning when you need to generate simple diagrams quickly.
- open_document
Opens a live Trident document and returns its full contents as Trident markup DSL — the human-readable text format used to author diagrams. Use this to READ and UNDERSTAND the diagram: its structure, labels, connections, and layout. Do NOT rely on this to enumerate entity IDs for
- get_document_summary
Returns a complete structured summary of a Trident document as JSON: all node IDs, container IDs, connection IDs, annotation IDs, labels, and entity counts. Use this for PROGRAMMATIC OPERATIONS — it is never truncated regardless of diagram size, so you always get every entity ID.
- get_recent_changes
Returns the recent change history for a live Trident document. Each entry shows who made the change, what was changed, and when. Useful for understanding what edits have been made by AI agents or human collaborators. Requires a valid access token.
- add_node
Adds a new node (entity) to a live Trident document. The node appears immediately for all collaborators. Requires a valid editor access token. Before adding nodes: call open_document to understand the diagram layout and pick sensible positions; call get_document_summary to get al
- update_node
Updates properties of an existing node in a live Trident document. Only the fields you provide are changed; others are preserved. Use get_document_summary to get all node IDs before calling this. Requires a valid editor access token.
- delete_node
Removes a node from a live Trident document. All connections to/from this node are also removed automatically. Use get_document_summary to get all node IDs before calling this. This action is reversible via Ctrl+Z in the Trident editor. Requires a valid editor access token.
- add_container
Adds a new container (group/swimlane) to a live Trident document. Containers visually group related nodes. Use get_document_summary to check existing container IDs before adding to avoid duplicates. Requires a valid editor access token. To build an ERD (entity-relationship diagra
- update_container
Updates properties of an existing container in a live Trident document. Only provided fields are changed. Use get_document_summary to get all container IDs before calling this. Requires a valid editor access token. This is also how you RESIZE a container: set width/height (and x/
- delete_container
Removes a container from a live Trident document. By default, nodes inside are detached (kept on the diagram without a container). Pass deleteNodes: true to remove the container's nodes as well. Use get_document_summary to get all container IDs before calling this. Requires a val
- add_connection
Adds a connection (arrow/edge) between two nodes or containers in a live Trident document. Use get_document_summary to get valid source and target IDs before calling this. Requires a valid editor access token. For ERD relationships, connect the two TABLE containers (field rows ar
- delete_connection
Removes a connection from a live Trident document. Provide either the connectionId, or both source and target node IDs to find and remove the matching connection. Use get_document_summary to get all connection IDs before calling this. Requires a valid editor access token.
- get_document_png
Renders the current state of a live Trident document as a PNG image directly from the Yjs collaborative session — bypassing Firestore, which may be stale. Returns a base64-encoded PNG. Use this to visually verify that diagram edits look correct before or after making changes.
- add_annotation
Adds a text annotation to a live Trident document. Two visual styles: style:stickyNote (default — post-it card with colored background, good for notes/callouts) or style:textBody (plain transparent text, good for diagram titles and section labels). Ideal for architectural notes,
- update_annotation
Updates an existing text annotation in a live Trident document. Only the fields you provide are changed. Use get_document_summary to get all annotation IDs before calling this. Requires a valid editor access token.
- delete_annotation
Removes a text annotation from a live Trident document. Use get_document_summary to get all annotation IDs before calling this. Requires a valid editor access token.
- update_canvas_graphic
Repositions or resizes a background image (canvas graphic) in a live Trident document. Use open_document to get the canvas graphic ID and current dimensions — it appears as: image <id> "<url>" at (x, y) width:W height:H. The position at (x, y) is the TOP-LEFT corner. USE THIS BEF
- make_suggestion
Posts a visible suggestion to human collaborators watching the document WITHOUT making any changes to the diagram. Use this when you observe something worth flagging — a potential mistake, an improvement, or a question — but want the human to decide. The suggestion appears as a b
- explain
Delivers an explanation payload to human collaborators watching the document, optionally anchored to a specific node or container. Use this when you want to explain what a diagram element represents, why it exists, or how it relates to other parts of the system — without suggesti
