- search_docs
Search ZeroWidth product documentation. Returns matching pages with title, slug, public URL, and a query-relevant snippet. Use this when the user asks about a ZeroWidth product (Compass, Workbench, Caliper, Prism, Ledger, Napkin, zv1), an API behavior, or a policy. No authenticat
- get_doc
Fetch the full Markdown body of a specific docs page by its slug. Use this after `search_docs` when the user needs the complete content of a page. No authentication required.
- list_docs
Enumerate all available docs pages, optionally filtered by product (e.g. 'compass', 'legal', 'overview'). Use this to discover what slugs exist before calling `get_doc`. No authentication required.
- workbench_flows_revisions_list
The flow's revision history, newest first: published versions carry a `version` label and note; entries with version null are draft autosaves. Use it to answer 'is this published?' (any entry with a version), to find a revision id for caliper_evals_create's flowRevisionId, or to
- workbench_flows_update
Changes a flow's name, description, visibility, tags, or archived state — the metadata around the flow, NOT its orchestration (prompts and nodes change through workbench_flows_edit_text). Pass only what changes. Archiving hides the flow from the default gallery but leaves it runn
- workbench_flows_publish
Snapshots the flow's current DRAFT as a named published version — the version schedules (workbench_flows_schedule), guest share links (workbench_flows_share_create), public-API runs, and 'published'-stage evals execute. The draft keeps evolving after this; runs on the published s
- workbench_flows_delete
Deletes a flow. Its schedules stop, guest share links die, and evals targeting it can no longer run (their binding shows flowOk: false) — check caliper_flow_performance for evals and workbench_flows_schedules_list before proposing, and prefer workbench_flows_update with archived:
- workbench_flows_fork
Copies a PUBLIC flow from another workspace (a template) into this one as a new draft the user owns. Identify it by its flowUuid (the id on Workbench's public template pages and in `workbench_flows_get` output); optionally pin which published version to copy. Flows already in thi
- workbench_flows_schedules_list
Every schedule on one flow: cadence, whether it's paused (`enabled: false`), the next fire time, delivery, and the last run's status. Read this before workbench_flows_schedule (don't create a duplicate) and to get the scheduleId for workbench_flows_schedules_update / workbench_fl
- workbench_flows_schedules_update
Changes one schedule: `enabled: false` pauses it (configuration kept), `enabled: true` resumes and recomputes the next fire time from now; `interval` / `scheduleTime` / `scheduleTimezone` / `scheduleDayOfWeek` change the cadence; `label`, `delivery`, and `input` can change too. P
- workbench_flows_schedules_delete
Removes a schedule for good. Prefer workbench_flows_schedules_update with enabled: false when the user might want it back. May return `needs_confirmation`.
- workbench_flows_schedules_run_now
Runs one iteration of a schedule immediately through the real scheduled pipeline (same input, same delivery — the email or channel it normally posts to) without moving its cadence. Works on paused schedules. Use it to test a schedule the user just set up. Spends workspace credit
- workbench_flows_shares_list
Every guest link on one flow, newest first: label, whether it's still live, the shareUrl (live links only — dead ones have no URL), expiry, and how many guests and messages it has seen. Use it to answer 'who has access', to recover a link the user lost, and to get the shareId for
- workbench_flows_shares_revoke
Kills one guest link immediately — anyone holding it gets a closed page from then on. Conversations already had stay in the flow's history. Get the shareId from workbench_flows_shares_list. May return `needs_confirmation`.
- workbench_flows_run
Execute a flow and return its outputs synchronously. Runs the draft by default; pass source:"published" (optionally a version) to run the live published version. Spends workspace LLM budget, bounded by the token's cost cap. `input` is the flow's input envelope, e.g. {"kind":"chat
- workbench_flows_schedule
Set a specific built flow to run automatically on a cadence — the deterministic counterpart to a zv1 routine. Each run executes the flow's latest PUBLISHED revision with the fixed `input` envelope and routes the output per `delivery`. USE THIS when the user wants a flow they've b
- workbench_flows_list
Lists every flow in the active workspace the caller can see. Returns summaries (id, name, visibility, updatedAt) — fetch one with `workbench_flows_get` for the full orchestration body.
- workbench_executions_get
The flow's stack traces: recent executions with per-node timelines — what each node received, produced, how long it took, and the exact error when one failed. USE THIS when a run misbehaves instead of guessing: read the failing node's inputs/error, then propose a fix (workbench_f
- workbench_flows_get
One flow. Default `view: summary` lists its nodes and links so you can pick one; `view: node` with a nodeId returns that node's full settings and prompt — read THAT before workbench_flows_edit_text, and copy `find` text from it character-for-character, never from memory. `view: f
- workbench_flow_authoring_guide
READ THIS FIRST before writing or editing any raw flow orchestration JSON. Covers the document shape, the settings-vs-input-ports rule (temperature, max_tokens, tools, response_format are PORTS, not settings — constants reach ports via value nodes), exact link format, plugin link
- workbench_node_catalog_get
The ground truth for what nodes exist and what their ports actually are — verify against this instead of recalling. Search by keyword/category for summaries; pass `slug` for one node's full detail (inputs, outputs, settings). Inputs are PORTS fed by links; settings live on the no
- workbench_flows_scaffold
Creates a runnable first-draft flow from a spec you author: pick the simplest pattern that fits (classifier for read-and-bucket, structurer for transform/extract/draft-for-review, agent for genuinely conversational), write a production-quality system prompt grounded in what the u
- workbench_flows_edit_text
Applies ONE precise text replacement to a flow's DRAFT orchestration — Edit-tool semantics: `find` must be the EXACT current text, copied character-for-character from workbench_flows_get, and must occur exactly once anywhere in the flow (system prompts, node settings, metadata, a
- workbench_flows_share_create
Creates a no-account guest link where anyone can chat with the flow's latest PUBLISHED revision at workbench's /s/<token> page — the fastest way to put a working flow in a stakeholder's hands ('here, try it'). The flow must have a published version (workbench_flows_revisions_list
- workbench_kb_get
One knowledge base: name, recipe (docs / tabular / graph), status, document and chunk counts, embedding model, and ingestion settings. Read it to confirm a KB has content before pointing a flow at it. Get the kbId from workbench_kb_list.
- workbench_kb_documents_list
Every document ingested into the KB's current content: id, name, type, size, chunk count. Empty for a KB with nothing ingested yet (or one whose ingestion is still running — check workbench_kb_ingestion_status). Use it before workbench_kb_add_documents to avoid re-adding a docume
- workbench_kb_ingestion_status
The state of one ingestion run started by workbench_kb_add_documents: PENDING / RUNNING / DONE / FAILED, chunks written, and the error when it failed. Read it when the user asks whether their documents are in yet, or before a search that needs them — don't poll in a loop; ingesti
- workbench_kb_delete
Deletes a knowledge base and everything in it. Flows that search it will find nothing — check which agents use it (the user knows; the KB page in Workbench lists them) and say so before proposing. May return `needs_confirmation`.
- workbench_kb_document_delete
Removes one ingested document and all its chunks; searches stop returning it at once. Get the documentId from workbench_kb_documents_list. To replace a document, remove it then workbench_kb_add_documents the new version. May return `needs_confirmation`.
- workbench_kb_list
Lists every knowledge base in the active workspace the caller can see. Returns summaries (id, name, description, status, doc/chunk counts, embedding model). Use an id with `workbench_kb_search` to retrieve content.
- workbench_kb_search
Retrieves the most relevant chunks from one knowledge base — the core RAG primitive. `mode:"semantic"` (default) embeds the query and ranks by meaning (spends a small amount of workspace credit); `mode:"keyword"` is a free case-insensitive substring match. Each hit carries the ch
- workbench_kb_create
Creates an empty knowledge base. Recipe 'docs' (default) for reference material an agent searches at runtime; 'tabular' for spreadsheet-style data queried with SQL; 'graph' for entity/relationship extraction. After creating, add content with workbench_kb_add_documents, then attac
- workbench_kb_add_documents
Adds documents to a knowledge base and starts ingestion (chunk + embed; graph KBs also extract entities; tabular KBs load CSV as tables). Text goes inline (Markdown, plain text, CSV — encoding utf8); binary files (PDF, .docx) go base64-encoded with their mimeType. Up to 50 source
- workbench_shim_list
Every shim the user can see: id, name, the question it answers, how many answers and examples it has, and the published version's held-out accuracy (null until something is published). A shim is a small decision model that runs inside an app with no model call. Start here to get
- workbench_shim_get
One shim in full: the question, where its inputs come from, every answer with its description and examples, what the shim still needs before it can build, and the newest build's report — held-out accuracy, recall per answer, which answers get mistaken for which, and the compiler'
- workbench_shim_create
Creates a shim from a name, the question it answers, and its answers. Add examples afterwards with workbench_shim_add_examples — three or more per answer and it builds on its own. May return `needs_confirmation`.
- workbench_shim_add_answer
Adds one answer (a label and, optionally, when it applies). The shim needs three examples of it before it builds again with the new answer. May return `needs_confirmation`.
- workbench_shim_add_examples
Adds example inputs to one answer. Write inputs a real person would actually type in the shim's setting — varied in length, register and specifics, each one clearly this answer and not another — never paraphrases of the answer's name. Read the shim first so new examples fit along
- comments_list
Lists the comment threads on one workspace entity (open first, then resolved) with authors and timestamps. Read this before weighing in on contested work — the threads are where disagreement lives before it becomes a decision.
- comments_create
Posts a comment on a workspace entity — a new thread, or a reply when rootId is given. Use it to leave findings where the discussion already lives (an eval result on the flow being debated, a summary on a long thread). Mention people via mentionedUserIds (from workspace member id
Security scan
- No findings. We scan names, descriptions and tool definitions for hidden instructions and other prompt-injection patterns.
