91 tools, verified live

Pulled straight from the server with tools/list on 2026-10-17.
create_site

Create empty site; seeds brief. Globally taken slugs auto-suffix to `{slug}-{adjective}-{noun}` (default); pass onSlugTaken:"fail" to get a 409 instead of a renamed site.

get_siteread-only

Site detail, stats, publicUrl, brief head (default-on), and readiness flags. pages[] is a ~25-entry head by default (stats.pages has the true count) — pass pages: true for the full array (capped at 1000), or enumerate everything with list_content/get_site_manifest. Large sites (200+ pages): list_pages is paginated — use cursor or get_site_manifest for the full route set.

update_briefcan modify

Update `_intent/site.md` (site brief) or a page brief when `page` is set. See field descriptions for rules, notes, and head enums.

get_analyticsread-only

Read-only traffic overview (default) or full breakdowns via include[]; optional bot id for crawler page drill-down.

update_site

Update site settings: title, keyConvention, or editingMode ('live' = each editor save publishes immediately; 'staged' = saves stay drafts until publish_site). Slug is the hostname — change it with rename_site, not this tool. Set 'staged' before handing the editor to a person via start_edit_session's draftEditorUrl. signature toggles the "Made with Dotsy" badge ({enabled, mark: logo|dot, reveal: pi

rename_sitecan modify

Rename the site slug (public hostname {slug}.dotsy.site). Owner-only. After success: use the returned slug in every later tool. Published site: the old slug redirects on the API (301 for reads, 308 for writes) while it stays reserved; the old host 301s and stays reserved until delete or rename-back. Never published: the old slug 404s on the API and the old hostname is released (no 301; create_site

publish_sitecan modify

Publish draft to live. feedback and handoff required (use dummy feedback + one-line handoff if clean).

get_draft_statusread-only

Pending draft changes: content keys and routes with status. May include requiredDecision (publish_confirm) before publish_site.

discard_draftscan modify

Discard unpublished drafts: all (omit key/keys/routes), one content key (key), or a selection (keys, routes). Destructive — check get_draft_status first.

delete_sitecan modify

Permanently delete site; confirmSlug must equal slug.

bulk_put_contentcan modify

Stage many content keys (pages, layouts, fragments). Content only — not routes or assets. Each body ≤60KB and the whole call ≤80KB; larger pages use stage_content_chunk, dotsy push, or PUT content-raw. May queue above the inline threshold.

get_site_manifestread-only

Content keys + hashes only (optional routes=true) — static files live in list_assets, not manifest. Diff keys+hashes before apply_changeset; stage only changed bodies.

find_replacecan modify

Case-insensitive find→replace across pages in one staged commit. Batch all replacements into ONE call — never parallelize find_replace on the same key (concurrent edits surface as per-key conflict). find/replace ≤60KB.

search_contentread-only

Find pages containing a phrase (grep without reading bodies). Requires do-sqlite — graduate_site first if search_unavailable.

graduate_site

Enable site search & collections (kv → do-sqlite), one-way. Unlocks search_content, collection indexes, visitor /__paige/search, and moves any R2 form-submission ledger into SiteDb. 409 blocked covers three unrelated gates: an unsupported source backend (no override, ever); strictDrafts — default true, this client sends true unless you pass strictDrafts:false — blocking on unpublished drafts or un

apply_changesetcan modify

Atomic writes[] + deletes[]; attach routes via writes[].route. At most 10 writes; each body ≤60KB and the call ≤80KB. Larger new pages: stage_content_chunk then writes[].bodyStaging, or dotsy push / PUT content-raw.

import_site_from_url

Import URL to draft. On complete, response may include requiredDecision — preview then ask mirror vs editable before structure_*.

get_structure_statusread-only

Flat vs structured page counts; informs user — do not auto-run analyze/apply while requiredDecision pending.

structure_site_analyze

Propose shared layout + fragments; persist:false first. Wait for mirror-vs-editable answer if requiredDecision pending.

decompose_analyze

Deprecated — use structure_site_analyze.

structure_site_applycan modify

Rewrite flat pages to layout + fragments (draft). Do not call while requiredDecision pending — user must pick editable first. It extracts header/footer only: afterwards share_section with no arguments lists the other repeated blocks (banner, CTA).

get_structure_resultread-only

Last structure apply job result (structuredKeys, conflicts, partial).

adapt_site_analyzeread-only

Propose nav wiring + blog collectionization for an imported mirror (draft, opt-in). Read-only; returns per-adapter reports + proposalEtag. Nav decline may include nextStep (e.g. mega-menu → edit fragments/header.html). Wait for mirror-vs-editable answer if requiredDecision pending.

adapt_site_applycan modify

Apply the adapt proposal (draft): wire nav into the menu store and/or rewrite the blog index to a live <dotsy-collection>. One undo covers the whole apply; a second apply is refused until adapt_site_revert (or force). Queued applies are polled to completion.

adapt_site_revertcan modify

Atomically restore everything the last adapt_site_apply wrote (fragments, the menu doc when the op touched it, index, member configs, routes).

get_adapt_statusread-only

Read adapt state: proposal summary + proposalEtag (+ applied/consumed flag), undo-record presence, active or queued job progress. Use to resume in a fresh session.

list_contentread-only

List content keys (HTML/md); not assets — use list_assets. Defaults to 50 keys per page — raise limit (max 1000) or pass cursor (from nextCursor) to page through the rest. Per-row `size`/`missing` are measured automatically only on pages of ≤100 rows; past that they're ABSENT (not measured, never `null`) unless you pass withSize:true, which forces measurement at a cost of one storage read per retu

get_contentread-only

Read one content key; optional selector (region) or published=true (live body). Bodies over 40KB without a selector return a truncated summary — use selector, batch_patch_content, or dotsy pull.

put_contentcan modify

Stage one content key. Body ≤60KB. Larger pages: stage_content_chunk + apply_changeset bodyStaging, dotsy push, or PUT content-raw. Edits to an existing large page: batch_patch_content.

stage_content_chunk

Append one ≤60KB chunk of a large new page. Omit stagingId on seq 0; pass the returned stagingId on later seq. Set finalize:true on the last chunk, then apply_changeset with writes[].bodyStaging.

patch_contentcan modify

Edit one content key via ops[] (selector ops or replace-string; wrap/unwrap/move restructure siblings). Stages draft; op shapes in schema.

batch_patch_contentcan modify

patch_content on multiple keys; all-or-nothing validation. Preferred edit path for pages over 60KB. replace-string value/replace ≤60KB; whole call ≤80KB.

delete_contentcan modify

Delete content key (tombstone if published). A fragments/* section that pages still place is refused with section_in_use (lists the pages) — detach it or remove it first.

rename_contentcan modify

Re-key a page by slug (draft or published static). Server-side hash copy — no body round-trip. Default deletes static routes (obscure-URL); movePath:true repoints the route, rewrites menu refs and other redirects aimed at the old path, and — only for an already-PUBLISHED page — leaves a 301 there too (leaveRedirect, default true; no effect on a never-published page, or when movePath is false). Ret

put_postcan modify

Stage a blog post via structured meta+body (?format=post). Key e.g. blog/my-post.html. Declared membership: meta.collections; schedule: meta.visibleAt; SEO title override: meta.seoTitle (card always shows meta.title); custom fields: meta.custom.

inspect_collectionread-only

Collection state — count, server.mode, sample entries, tag (membershipKind, match=) when discovered; plus name, noun, URL pattern, layout, where it's listed, and post fields used. Pass status/q/cursor/limit (any one, even empty) for a full items[] page instead: status draft = never published; a published post with unpublished edits is status published with hasChanges:true (never draft) and shows i

list_collectionsread-only

Collections on the site — name, noun, item count (or 'not published yet'), URL pattern, and whether any member is staged. Includes a collection only a draft page lists. Returns a bare array (not wrapped in an object) — pass each row's key verbatim to inspect_collection/update_collection.

update_collection

Rename a collection's display name and/or noun (e.g. the generic 'posts' key shown as 'Recipes' / 'recipe') — cosmetic only, stored separately from the tag that defines membership; doesn't need publish. Provide at least one of name/noun. null (or "") resets that field back to its derived default — different from omitting it, which leaves the current value alone.

new_post_templateread-only

Read-only scaffold for a new post — suggested key/path, membership meta, blank or duplicate body. Then put_post (+ optional put_route).

reindex_collection

Build/finish collection indexes after publish returns collectionDataPending or collectionSqlPending.

preview_pageread-only

Verify-only composed HTML check; home preview may include requiredDecision — ask mirror vs editable before structure_*.

verify_pageread-only

Pre-publish lint (tags, assets, layout). Pair with preview_page — see get_skill('verify').

preflight_siteread-only

Plan check before publish or large build (counts, route soft limit, seo suggestions). When ok is false, blocking lists the failed suggestion codes. Read-only.

start_edit_session

Open a draft session. Returns preview/edit URLs for the person (see linkGuidance). draftEditorUrl only when the site gives AI agents Full access. path defaults to '/'.

get_site_outlineread-only

Site shape: every layout and shared section (`sections`: fragments/* by name, with page count, whether the file exists and staged-change flag), whether a layout is missing, redirects count, menus grouped by where they show, and collections with their page placements. Use for 'is my layout missing', 'which shared sections exist and where', 'where does this menu show' — without listing every page. R

share_sectioncan modify

Make a block that repeats on several pages one shared section, or change where one shows. No arguments: lists blocks repeated on 3+ pages. sourceKey + selector (or selectors: a sibling run, one wrapper): a dry run finds every page with it; dryRun:false shares it. name + scope/hide/show: move an existing section to/from every page, or hide/show it per page. Over the per-call cap (too_many_pages, no

detach_sectioncan modify

Give one page its own copy of a shared section; every other page keeps the shared one. A draft — publish_site to go live. A section the layout places is hidden on that page instead (share_section name + hide).

get_routeread-only

Get one route by path (home is '/').

put_routecan modify

Create/replace route; contentKey derived from path if omitted. On a field that accepts null (contentKey, redirectTo, redirectStatus, preserveQuery), sending null clears it back to its default.

patch_routecan modify

Partial route update (only sent fields change; an OMITTED field is left alone). On a field that accepts null (contentKey, redirectTo, redirectStatus, preserveQuery), sending null CLEARS it back to its default — different from omitting it. To set redirectTo/redirectStatus, include purpose: "redirect" in the SAME call — the check looks only at what's sent, not the route's stored purpose, so a PATCH

rename_pagecan modify

Change a page's URL: moves its route from `from` to `to`. Menu links and other redirects that pointed at the old path retarget automatically; a 301 is left at the old path by default (leaveRedirect). Retry-safe (resend the same call after any error). Errors: 404 route_not_found (from isn't a route); 400 reserved_route (to is under /__dotsy/) or invalid_body (missing/malformed from or to); 422 rena

delete_routecan modify

Remove a route by path.

list_goalsread-only

List site conversion goals (pageview paths and form submits). Required before start_test.

put_goalscan modify

Create or replace all site conversion goals (≤50). Required before start_test when no goal exists.

estimate_testread-only

Estimate days to reach promote readiness for a page (traffic baseline). Read-only.

start_test

Start a same-URL A/B test (draft or live source). Rules → get_skill('verify') § A/B.

promote_experimentcan modify

Promote a winning A/B variant to live — explicit user instruction only; see get_skill('verify') § A/B.

delete_draft_testcan modify

Remove a draft A/B test (releases variant bodies; does not publish).

set_experiment_note

Record what was learned from an ended A/B test (≤500 chars; null clears).

get_menuread-only

Read a menu's draft items and etag; menu rules → get_skill('nav').

put_menu_itemcan modify

Partial upsert one menu item: provided fields overwrite; omitted html/childTemplate/childShell/attrs/data are preserved. To remove those keys, use put_menu_doc. A brand-new id dedupes by (menu, ref) — reuses an existing item linking the same target instead of creating a duplicate. An id that already names an item always updates that exact item, even if another item links the same page.

delete_menu_itemcan modify

Remove one item from a menu (page stays live).

reorder_menu

Set final menu order. Pass ifMatch from get_menu; stale → 409 with current items.

get_menu_docread-only

Read the whole menu doc (all menus + shell/template), etag for put_menu_doc, and issues (by item id) — page_not_routable, page_missing, page_dead_link, page_is_redirect — computed from the draft routes, so a link that won't show or leads nowhere shows up before publish.

put_menu_doccan modify

Replace the whole menu doc (ifMatch from get_menu_doc required). Each item may omit menu — the enclosing menu key in doc is used.

list_assetsread-only

CMS uploads under assets/ only — not mirrored clone CDN (get_site mirroredAssets or import warmJob). Not content — use list_content. Uploaded files are live in the editor and draft preview at once; the published site picks them up at the next publish.

get_assetread-only

Read one asset (metadata + base64 + stored sha256). sha256 is the stored blob; may differ from upload bodySha256 when IMAGES re-encodes rasters. Uploaded files are live in the editor and draft preview at once; the published site picks them up at the next publish.

bulk_put_assetscan modify

Upload 1–200 CMS assets; key = path after /assets/. Each item: exactly one of bodyBase64, bodyText (plain text for .css/.js/.mjs/.json/.svg/.txt/.xml only — not .html pages), or importFromUrl. Optional bodySha256 verifies submitted bytes before write; response sha256 is stored bytes (JS/CSS match; WebP rasters may differ). Uploaded files are live in the editor and draft preview at once; the publis

delete_assetcan modify

Delete a static asset by key. The editor and draft preview drop it at once; the published site drops it at the next publish.

start_site

Start one draft site with no Dotsy account. Returns slug + guestToken — pass guestToken on every later tool call until claim_site.

claim_site

Move the guest draft onto your signed-in Dotsy account. Requires OAuth Connect; pass the guestToken from start_site.

list_skillsread-only

Paige build skills (id + whenToUse). Pull get_skill on demand — do not duplicate in tool text.

get_skillread-only

Skill body + optional questions[]. Accepts an id OR a synonym (e.g. 'list', 'menu') — resolves aliases and suggests near-misses. Start with intake when ambiguous.

submit_feedback

Optional mid-session feedback (required feedback rides with publish_site).

get_activityread-only

List site activity or fetch one change diff (pass id). Filters: who, state, actor (me), since, limit≤20. Notes from context are visible to everyone on the site — no secrets.

revert_change

Undo one activity event by staging the prior version as draft only — call publish_site to go live. Respects AI access.

get_account_contextread-only

Account, user, memberships[]. Pass workspace on writes when memberships.length > 1.

add_custom_domain

Connect apex and/or www on a paid plan; starts a DNS connect session.

get_custom_domain_connectread-only

Current connect session and nextAction (browser URL or manual DNS guide).

reapply_custom_domain_oauth

Re-apply DNS with stored Cloudflare OAuth grant (no browser).

refresh_custom_domain

Poll one hostname until DNS/cert propagates.

wait_for_custom_domain

Poll one hostname until it is connected or the timeout is reached.

set_primary_custom_domain

Set the canonical host (301 target) when multiple hostnames are connected.

list_custom_domainsread-only

List all custom hostnames and connection status for the site.

remove_custom_domaincan modify

Remove one custom hostname from the site.

list_form_submissionsread-only

List form submissions (metadata + bounded field preview — not full PII). Works on kv and do-sqlite backends.

get_form_submissionread-only

Read one form submission with the full field payload (explicit PII access — use only when needed).

list_my_sitesread-only

List your Dotsy sites. Renders a site-picker for humans; agent reads structuredContent. Use to choose a site — not for editing content (use edit_page) or verify-only checks (use preview_page). Defaults to your active workspace; pass workspace (org id or slug from get_account_context memberships) to list another workspace's sites without switching the dashboard session.

list_pagesread-only

List pages on a site — route settings (path/title/navLabel/purpose) by default, one row per route. Renders a page-picker for humans (redirect and worker routes left out there — nothing to open in edit_page); agent reads structuredContent. Use after picking a site — not for editing (use edit_page) or verify-only checks (use preview_page). Pass view:'pages' to group by layout instead — adds layout/n

edit_pageread-only

Open the interactive page canvas to change content: the user clicks an element, then you call patch_content. Use when the intent is editing — not for verify-only checks (use preview_page).

get_site_build_progressread-only

Read-only build progress for humans (build-theater view) during structure/adapt or after import. Agent reads structuredContent.forHumans — optional; do not call in a loop during import_site_from_url (that tool blocks until done). Prefer get_site for agent logic.
