gluecron_repo_searchread-onlySearch Gluecron repositories by keyword (name + description), case-insensitively. Returns public repos plus any private repos owned by the authenticated caller. Default 20 per page, max 50; `total` is the full match count and `nextOffset` pages through it.
gluecron_repo_read_fileread-onlyRead a single file from a repository at a given ref (branch / tag / commit). Private repos are readable when the authenticated caller has access. Returns the text content (binary files rejected).
gluecron_repo_list_issuesread-onlyList open issues for a public repository. Returns up to 50 ordered by most-recent.
gluecron_repo_explain_codebaseread-onlyReturn the cached AI 'explain this codebase' Markdown for a public repo (most recent commit). Returns null when no cached explanation exists yet.
gluecron_repo_healthread-onlyCompute the current health report for a public repo: overall score (0-100), letter grade, per-category breakdown (security/testing/complexity/dependencies/documentation/activity), and a list of insights to fix next. Backed by computeHealthScore in src/lib/intelligence.ts.
gluecron_create_issueCreate a new issue on a Gluecron repository. Requires authenticated caller with write access on the target repo. Returns {number, url}.
gluecron_comment_issueAdd a comment to an existing issue. Requires authenticated caller with write access. Returns {commentId}.
gluecron_close_issuecan modifyClose an open issue. Requires authenticated caller with write access. Idempotent — closing an already-closed issue is a no-op. Returns {state}.
gluecron_reopen_issueReopen a previously closed issue. Requires authenticated caller with write access. Idempotent. Returns {state}.
gluecron_create_prOpen a new pull request. `head_branch` is required; `base_branch` defaults to the repo default branch. Requires authenticated caller with write access. Returns {number, url}.
gluecron_get_prread-onlyFetch the full detail record of a pull request (title, body, state, branches, draft, author, timestamps). Authenticated callers only (the read tool surface still works anonymously).
gluecron_list_prsread-onlyList pull requests on a repo, filtered by state (open|closed|merged|all). Authenticated callers only. Returns up to 50 summary rows.
gluecron_comment_prAdd a comment to a pull request. Requires authenticated caller with write access. Returns {commentId}.
gluecron_merge_prcan modifyMerge an open PR. Enforces the same checks as the HTTP merge flow: not a draft, head SHA resolves, GateTest+AI-review hard gates pass, branch-protection rules satisfied. M3: soft-blocks when the pre-merge risk score is `critical` unless `confirm_high_risk: true` is passed. Returns {merged, sha?, reason?, riskScore?}.
gluecron_close_prcan modifyClose an open pull request without merging. Requires authenticated caller with write access. Idempotent. Returns {state}.
gluecron_fork_repoFork a repository to the authenticated caller's namespace. Mirrors POST /:owner/:repo/fork. Returns {owner, repo, url}. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_delete_repocan modifyPermanently delete a repository row (git data on disk is left untouched). Requires 'admin' access on the repo (owner, org owners/admins, admin collaborators) AND 'admin' token scope. Returns {deleted: true}.
gluecron_update_repocan modifyUpdate repository description / visibility / default_branch. Requires 'admin' access on the repo (owner, org owners/admins, admin collaborators) and 'repo' scope. Returns {ok: true}.
gluecron_search_reposread-onlySearch repositories by owner, name, owner/name or description, case-insensitively: every public repo, plus the private ones you own or collaborate on when authenticated. Omit `query` (authenticated) to list YOUR repositories — the ones you own or were invited to — instead of searching. Mirrors GET /api/v2/search/repos. `total` is the full match count (not the page size) and `nextOffset` pages thro
gluecron_whoamiread-onlyWho this connector is on this Gluecron instance: the signed-in username and email, whether that account is a site admin, the token's scopes, and how many repositories it owns or collaborates on. Call it first when a repository seems missing — the answer is usually which account authorized the connector. Anonymous callers get authenticated:false and a hint.
gluecron_clone_urlread-onlyReturn the authenticated HTTPS clone URL for a repo + a credential-helper hint. Use this instead of embedding tokens in URLs. Returns {url, owner, repo, defaultBranch, hint} using the repo's stored casing.
gluecron_create_deploy_tokenMint a short-lived, repository-scoped HTTPS clone credential (a deploy token) and return it once with a ready clone URL — for a sandbox or CI box that has no PAT. Read-only by default; `read_only: false` asks for push access and is granted only if you have write access. Expires in 2 h by default (`expires_in_hours`, max 24). Needs owner / collaborator / team / org access to the repo (public read i
gluecron_create_repo_tokenMint a fine-grained repository token (`gcft_…`) for ONE repository and return it once. It authenticates the REST API (/api/v2 and the GitHub-compatible /api/v3), git over HTTPS and the container registry (images under owner/repo, by contents) for that repository only. `permissions` sets none/read/write for contents, issues, pull_requests, statuses and actions (admin and settings are never grantabl
gluecron_list_repo_tokensread-onlyList the fine-grained repository tokens you have minted (never the secret): repository, permissions, state (active / expired / revoked), expiry and last use. Needs 'repo' scope.
gluecron_revoke_repo_tokencan modifyRevoke one of your fine-grained repository tokens by id (from gluecron_list_repo_tokens). It stops working on its next use. Needs 'repo' scope. Audit-logged.
gluecron_import_actionSite admins only (needs an 'admin'-scoped token). Import a third-party GitHub Action at ONE tag, branch or full commit SHA into the Gluecron mirror namespace (gluecron-actions/<owner>--<repo>), so workflows that say `uses: owner/repo@ref` can run it. Workflow runs never fetch from github.com; an action that is not imported is skipped. Re-importing the same ref updates it to what upstream has now.
gluecron_label_issueAttach one or more labels to an issue. Labels are created if they don't yet exist on the repo. Requires 'repo' scope. Returns {labels}.
gluecron_unlabel_issueDetach a label from an issue. Idempotent. Requires 'repo' scope. Returns {removed: boolean}.
gluecron_assign_issueAssign (or, with remove: true, unassign) users on an issue or pull request. Real assignees since 2026-10-12 — up to 10 per thread, only users who can read the repository; the old `assignee:<username>` labels were migrated. Pass `assignee` (one username) or `assignees` (array). `type` is 'issue' (default) or 'pull_request'. Requires 'repo' scope and write access. Returns {assigned, skipped:[{userna
gluecron_search_issuesread-onlySearch issues by title/body keyword on a single repo, filtered by state. Returns ranked rows.
gluecron_request_changesRequest changes on a PR. Records a 'changes requested' review by the caller, which holds the PR on every merge path (web button, API, MCP merge, merge queue, merge train, autopilot) until the caller approves or someone with write access dismisses it (gluecron_dismiss_review), and posts the body as a comment. Requires 'repo' scope and write access.
gluecron_dismiss_reviewDismiss the standing 'changes requested' reviews on a PR (all of them, or one reviewer's), so they no longer hold the merge. Requires 'repo' scope and write access; the reason is required and audited.
gluecron_search_prsread-onlySearch pull requests by title/body keyword on a repo.
gluecron_list_pr_commentsread-onlyList every comment on a pull request in chronological order: general comments (kind `issue_comment`), inline review comments (`review_comment`: path, line, thread {id, inReplyToId, position, replies, resolved, resolvedAt, resolvedBy}) and review summaries (`review`: state approved | changes_requested | commented). Each entry has author {login, type user|bot}, isAi (written by an AI reviewer), body
gluecron_open_draft_prOpen a draft pull request. Same payload as gluecron_create_pr but forces is_draft=true. Useful for AI-in-progress PRs that shouldn't run mergeability checks yet.
gluecron_set_pr_draftMark a pull request ready for review (draft=false) or convert it back to a draft (draft=true). Same rule as the web 'Ready for review' button: the caller needs write access and must be the PR author or the repository owner; only an open PR changes; marking ready starts the AI review. Idempotent. Requires 'repo' scope. Returns {number, isDraft, changed}.
gluecron_generate_pr_descriptionread-onlyGenerate an AI commit-message-style description for a diff. Uses src/lib/ai-commit-message.ts under the hood; gracefully degrades to a heuristic when ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is missing. Returns {subject, body}.
gluecron_update_pr_branchBring a PR branch up to date with its base: merge the base into the head server-side (the PR page's 'Update branch'). Never a force-push — the new head is a merge commit moved through the push gates, so it gets CI. On conflict nothing changes and `conflictFiles` lists the paths. Requires write access and 'repo' scope. Returns {ok, status: 'updated'|'up-to-date', headSha, previousHeadSha, baseSha,
gluecron_update_prEdit a pull request's title, body, base branch and/or draft state. Title / body / base: the PR's author or anyone with write access; draft: the same rule as gluecron_set_pr_draft (write access and the PR author or repo owner; marking ready starts the AI review). Needs 'repo' scope. Changing the base (open PRs only) re-runs the PR's pull_request CI against the new base and disarms auto-merge. Retur
gluecron_set_auto_mergeArm (enabled: true) or disarm (enabled: false) auto-merge on one PR: it merges by itself through the full gated merge chain (CI, required checks, branch protection, CODEOWNERS, risk) once CI and every required check are green and no reviewer with write access has changes requested. Stays armed while anything is pending; `last_attempt.reason` says what it waits for. Requires write access and 'repo'
gluecron_get_pr_checksread-onlyList every check at a PR's current head — workflow runs, gates and commit statuses — with status, conclusion, whether branch protection requires it, and the run's log URL; plus each required check's state (passing / pending / failing / missing) and the merge gate's own CI verdict. Read-only. Returns {head_sha, total_count, check_runs, required, ci}.
gluecron_rerun_failed_jobsRe-run a failed or cancelled workflow run at the SAME commit (same inputs, same PR merge preview) — the run page's Re-run. Gluecron re-runs every job of the run (per-job re-run does not exist yet); a successful or still-running run is refused. Joins an identical queued run instead of stacking another. Requires write access and 'repo' scope. Returns {runId, previousRunId, joinedExistingRun, url}.
gluecron_get_branch_protectionread-onlyRead the branch-protection rule that applies to a branch (exact name or the glob that covers it): required checks, require_pr_run, required approvals, AI / human review, green gates, force-push / deletion, auto-merge. Read-only. Returns {protected: false} when no rule applies, else {protected: true, pattern, matched_by, required_checks, …}.
gluecron_set_branch_protectionSet branch protection for one branch (partial update: fields you omit keep their value). Edits the rule named exactly after the branch; when only a glob rule covers it, a new exact rule is created seeded from the glob's settings and checks. required_checks replaces the required-check list ([] clears it). require_pr_run: a required check that names a workflow is met only by that workflow's pull_req
gluecron_approve_prApprove a pull request: records an 'approved' review by the caller — the same review the web form and POST /api/v2/repos/:owner/:repo/pulls/:number/reviews write, so it counts toward branch protection's required approvals and clears the caller's own earlier request for changes. The PR must be open; its author cannot approve it. Requires write access and 'repo' scope. To request changes use gluecro
gluecron_read_fileread-onlyRead a file from a repo at a given ref. Mirrors GET /api/v2/repos/:owner/:repo/contents/:path. Returns {path, size, content, encoding, totalLines}. Pass `start_line` / `end_line` (1-based, inclusive) to read only part of a text file. A text file over ~60 KB read with no range returns its first ~60 KB of whole lines with `truncated: true`, `startLine`/`endLine` and a hint — ask for the next range t
gluecron_write_fileCreate or update a file on a branch via git plumbing. Wraps `createOrUpdateFileOnBranch`. Pass `content` as a UTF-8 string OR `content_base64` for binary. Meets the same branch protection, rulesets and secret scan as a git push, and fires CI/webhooks like one. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_delete_filecan modifyDelete a file from a branch via git plumbing. Requires the existing blob sha (optimistic concurrency) and 'repo' scope. Meets the same branch protection, rulesets and secret scan as a git push, and fires CI/webhooks like one. Mirrors DELETE /api/v2/contents.
gluecron_list_treeread-onlyList directory contents at a ref. `path` scopes the listing to a subtree and is honoured in BOTH modes; `recursive: true` walks the whole subtree instead of one level. Always returns the same shape: {path, ref, recursive, entries, truncated, totalCount}. Recursive entries carry full repo-relative paths; non-recursive entries carry names. A ref that does not exist is an error, never an empty listin
gluecron_get_commitread-onlyFetch a single commit by SHA: metadata plus the list of files it changed (path, status, additions, deletions). Mirrors GET /api/v2/repos/.../commits/:sha. Patch bodies are NOT included — use gluecron_get_diff for those.
gluecron_get_diffread-onlyRead the actual changes in a commit or a branch range. Pass `sha` for one commit against its first parent, or `base`+`head` for everything head adds since the merge base (what a PR proposes). Returns {files:[{path, oldPath?, status, additions, deletions, binary, patch, patchTruncated}], stats, truncated}. Patch text is byte-capped; set include_patch=false for a files-changed summary only.
gluecron_create_branchCreate a new branch ref pointing at an existing sha. Mirrors POST /api/v2/repos/.../git/refs. Gated like a push of the new branch (rulesets, secret scan of commits no other ref reaches) and fires CI/webhooks. Requires 'repo' scope. Returns {ref, sha}.
gluecron_atomic_multi_file_commitApply a set of file writes + deletes as a single atomic commit on a branch (creates the branch if it doesn't exist). The killer agent tool: blob/tree/commit/ref-update sequence. Each change is `{path, content?, content_base64?, deleted?}`. Meets the same branch protection, rulesets and secret scan as a git push, and fires CI/webhooks like one. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_apply_patchCommit a patch to a branch without sending whole files — the way to change a few lines of a large file. `patch` is a unified diff as `git diff` prints it (one commit, `message` required) OR `git format-patch` mbox output (each patch becomes its own commit with the patch's own message and author, like `git am`; `message` is ignored). Applied server-side with `git apply --cached` against the branch
gluecron_ship_specDrop a spec file in .gluecron/specs/ with status: ready so the autopilot picks it up. Wraps voice-to-pr.shipAsSpec — handle both voice + manual specs. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_voice_to_prInterpret a free-form voice transcript and either ship it as a spec or create an issue (caller picks via `as`). Wraps src/lib/voice-to-pr.ts. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_refactor_across_reposPlan + execute a refactor that spans multiple repos owned by the caller. Wraps src/lib/multi-repo-refactor.ts. `dry_run: true` returns the plan only. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_explain_reporead-onlyReturn the cached AI 'explain this codebase' Markdown for a repo. Pure read — never triggers a new generation (use the web UI for that).
gluecron_chat_with_repoStart a new chat with a repo: creates a chat row, sends the first user message, streams + persists the assistant reply. Returns {chat_id, reply}. If the AI service does not answer this fails with a JSON-RPC error carrying {chat_id, ai_error} — it never returns apology copy as a reply. Requires authentication.
gluecron_chat_continueSend another message to an existing repo chat. Returns the assistant's reply. If the AI service does not answer this fails with a JSON-RPC error carrying {chat_id, ai_error} rather than returning apology copy as a reply.
gluecron_generate_testsGenerate tests for a PR via Claude. Wraps src/lib/ai-test-generator.generateTestsForPr. Mode 'follow-up-pr' opens a new PR; 'append-commit' commits onto the head branch. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_generate_commit_messageread-onlyGenerate a commit message for a diff. Same engine as gluecron_generate_pr_description but explicit for the commit-message use case.
gluecron_generate_release_notesread-onlyGenerate release notes between two tags. Wraps src/lib/ai-release-notes.generateReleaseNotes. Returns the rendered Markdown + section data.
gluecron_propose_migrationPropose a dependency-upgrade PR. Wraps src/lib/migration-assistant.proposeMajorMigration. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_propose_doc_updateManual trigger for the AI doc-update flow: scans tracked sections on the default branch and opens a PR rewriting stale prose. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_trigger_workflowDispatch a workflow_dispatch run. Mirrors POST /api/v2/repos/.../actions/workflows/:filename/dispatches. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_get_workflow_runread-onlyFetch a workflow run's metadata + status. Mirrors GET /api/v2/repos/.../actions/runs/:id. Also says how it relates to automatic retries: `retryOf` / `retryOfRunNumber` (the run this one retries after a deploy or a lost runner) and `retriedAs` ({id, runNumber} of the run that retried this one, or null).
gluecron_list_workflow_runsread-onlyList a repository's workflow runs, newest first, with optional branch/status/event filters. Mirrors GET /api/v2/repos/.../actions/runs. The companion to gluecron_get_workflow_run / gluecron_cancel_workflow_run — this is how an agent finds the run ids to inspect or cancel (issue #10493: without it, stale queued runs could not be discovered from the tool surface at all).
gluecron_get_workflow_logsread-onlyReturn a workflow run's logs plus a failure summary. Always includes run metadata (number, workflow, event, ref, sha), per-job and per-step status / exit code / duration, `failedSteps` (`job / step`) and `testFailures` (failing test names, read from each step's structured results parsed before its log was cut, or the reason they cannot all be named; null when no job failed). `testFailures.details`
gluecron_explain_failureread-onlyExplain a failed CI run: for each failed step, its class (compile / test / flaky / dependency / env / infra / lint / security / unknown) and the rule that chose it, the normalised error signature, failing tests, the files the commit touched, prior occurrences of the same failure (this repo, your other repos with the same owner or org, and platform-wide counts only) with the fix rate, and a suggest
gluecron_list_flaky_testsread-onlyList a repository's flaky tests. A test is flaky only with a forensic repro: when it failed, CI re-ran just that test in the same order, alone, with the clock shifted +137 ms and +1 s, in TZ=Pacific/Chatham and in a fixed random order, and a variable flipped its verdict N times in a row on the same git tree. Each entry has the test, file, state (active / expired / resolved, or unexplained = flippe
gluecron_cancel_workflow_runcan modifyCancel a queued/running workflow run. Requires 'repo' scope.
gluecron_prioritize_workflow_runMove a QUEUED workflow run into the priority lane: the runner claims it ahead of the fair-share order across repositories (issue #10898). Only queued runs; a running or finished run is reported, not changed. Requires 'repo' scope and write access.
gluecron_review_deploymentApprove or reject a workflow run's jobs waiting on a protected environment (`environment:` with required reviewers). The caller must be a reviewer of every environment selected (the environment's reviewers, or the repository owner when none are listed). An approval runs the job (after the environment's wait timer, if any); a rejection fails it. Mirrors POST /api/v2/repos/.../actions/runs/:id/pendi
gluecron_create_runner_registration_tokenCreate a one-time CI runner registration token for an owner (your username, an org you own or admin, or 'platform' as a site admin). A runner started with RUNNER_REGISTRATION_TOKEN=<token> registers once and gets its own long-lived credential; that owner's CI then runs on it. Expires in an hour. Returns {owner, token, expiresAt, gluecronUrl}.
gluecron_list_runnersread-onlyList the CI runners registered to an owner (username, org slug, or 'platform'): id, name, url, labels, slots, online, last seen, revoked; allowSharedOverflow (the setting); and sharedLane, whether the owner's jobs actually run on shared runners: 'used (no own runners)', 'overflow allowed' or 'not used (own runners only)', explained in sharedLaneDetail.
gluecron_revoke_runnercan modifyRevoke a CI runner by id: nothing is dispatched to it from now on, its next heartbeat is refused and it stops accepting jobs. Cannot be undone — register a new runner instead. Returns {id, revoked}.
gluecron_get_preview_urlread-onlyReturn the branch-preview URL + status for a (repo, branch) pair. Wraps branch-previews.getPreviewForBranch. Returns {ok:false, reason:'not enabled on this host'} when the host has no PREVIEW_DOMAIN (no preview would ever resolve).
gluecron_provision_pr_sandboxProvision (or re-provision) a sandbox for a PR. Wraps pr-sandbox.provisionSandbox. Requires 'repo' scope. Returns {ok:false, reason:'not enabled on this host'} when no sandbox provisioner runs on the host.
gluecron_create_agent_sessionMint a new agent-multiplayer session. Returns the plaintext `token` exactly once (store it). Requires 'admin' scope.
gluecron_acquire_leaseGrab an exclusive lease on a PR, issue, branch or file path in a repository you can write, for one of your agent sessions. Pass owner+repo with a bare key (PR/issue number, branch name, path), or target_id '<repository id>:<key>'. Returns lease null when another agent holds an active lease.
gluecron_release_leaseRelease a lease by id. Idempotent. Returns {released}.
gluecron_get_agent_budgetread-onlyReturn spent / cap / remaining cents for an agent session.
gluecron_semantic_searchread-onlyQuery the per-repo vector index (Voyage embeddings when configured, hash fallback otherwise). Reads the live per-push index (code_embeddings) first, falling back to the manually-reindexed chunk index (code_chunks). Returns {hits, source, indexed, indexedFiles} — `indexed: false` means the repo has never been indexed (empty hits are NOT 'no match'); `indexedFiles` is the live-index row count.
gluecron_search_coderead-onlyLiteral / regex code search (git grep, basic regex) across a repo at a ref. The dependable way to find code on this host — works on every repo, indexed or not. Optional scoping: `path` (a directory or file prefix, literal), `glob` (git pathspec glob such as `src/**/*.ts`, relative to `path` when both are given), `ignore_case`, and `files_only` (unique files with match counts instead of lines). Ret
gluecron_find_symbolread-onlyFind definitions of a symbol by name within a repo. Wraps src/lib/symbols.findDefinitions.
gluecron_pr_status_summaryread-onlyCompute a one-shot status summary for a PR: state, risk score (and whether it describes the current head), CI state for the head commit as the merge gate sees it, AI-review verdicts (trio), gate signals. Read-only.
gluecron_ci_queue_statusread-onlyHow full the shared CI queue is, and what to do about it: level (ok / busy / saturated), runs queued and running, runner slots, estimated minutes before a new run starts, and — with owner+repo — that repository's queued/running runs, its share of CI work, the slots it may hold while others wait, and a recommendation (e.g. batch changes into fewer pushes). The same `ciQueue` block the write tools r
gluecron_handoverread-onlyStart here when picking up work: the live state of a repository, read from git and CI rather than from a handoff doc. Returns `summary` (one paragraph), `blockers` (most urgent first), the default branch's CI per workflow (red streak, since when, last green run), the build this Gluecron instance serves and how many commits it is behind (when it is this repository), every open PR grouped green / pe
gluecron_ai_cost_summaryread-onlyReturn AI spend rollups. Scope by one of: user_id (self), repo {owner,repo}, or agent_session_id. Defaults to caller's user spend.
gluecron_security_scanread-onlyEverything Gluecron actually knows about a repository's security, in one honest call: OSV.dev CVE/GHSA advisories against the indexed dependency graph (with FIXED VERSIONS), Gluecron's supplemental advisory list, a full-tree committed-secret scan, and optionally a Claude semantic code review. Unlike gluecron_repo_health, an empty result is NEVER reported as a pass: every category returns status 'a
