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

Parse input with the tabnas engine. Returns {ok:true, tree} or, on parse failure, {ok:false, diagnostic} — the structured diagnostic described by resource tabnas://schema/diagnostic. An invalid grammar is rejected as {ok:false, errors:[{path,message}]}. Without a grammar the bare engine is used, which defines no rules and produces an undefined tree for every input.

validate_grammar

Validate a serialized GrammarSpec. Structural validation against the bundled grammar schema, an engine load in a fresh instance, and a check that every rule reference (`p`, `r`) names a rule the grammar actually defines — a dangling reference loads cleanly and then fails at parse time with `unknown_rule`. Returns {ok:true, v} (v = declared builtin config-schema version, absent means 1) or {ok:fals

explain_parse_error

Parse input and explain the failure. Returns {failed:false} when the input parses; otherwise {failed:true, diagnostic, registry} where registry is the error-code registry entry {code,message,hint} for the diagnostic code (resource tabnas://errors), or null for a code the bundled registry does not know (e.g. a plugin-declared code).

test_grammar

Run TSV fixture content against a grammar in a fresh instance, using the fleet fixture convention (@tabnas/support): line 1 is a header, the input column is escape-decoded, the expected column is JSON or ERROR / ERROR:<code>. Returns {pass, fail, rows:[{row,input,expected,got,ok}]}. Refuses more than 10000 rows.

list_plugins

List every bundled tabnas plugin descriptor (tabnas.plugin.json of each fleet repo), sorted by name. Returns {plugins:[...]}.

describe_plugin

The full descriptor for one plugin, by package name ('@tabnas/csv') or bare fleet name ('csv'). Unknown names get {ok:false, errors} naming the known plugins.

compare_grammars

Grammar compatibility (AX plan Phase 5): does candidate grammar B still accept what baseline A accepted, and does it build the same tree for inputs both accept? Returns EVIDENCE AND CONFIDENCE, never a bare verdict: {normalForm, proven[], observed[], changes[], counterexamples[], confidence, why}. confidence:'low' with a stated reason is a successful run, not a failure — language inclusion is unde
