list_projects

List the projects in this workspace, with what each one is building.

create_projectcan modify

Start building something new: creates a GitHub repo and begins work on it. For a NEW repo. Given an existing repo, import_project(repo_full_name) is the right call — this one would create a second, empty repo beside it (list_github_repos() browses what the workspace can see). Scaffolds a new GitHub repo, a bootstrap-mode project, and submits `build_description` as the proje

submit_request

Ask for a change in plain English: a feature, a bug fix, or a new direction. Each call carries ONE feature or intent; a multi-feature ask belongs in separate requests. `text` must be under 16000 characters. Returns {thread_id, status, next_action, poll_after_seconds, next_step}; next_step names the re-check of get_request_status after poll_after_seconds.

get_request_status

Check what happened to a request, and read any questions it asked back. Intake is async (~5min cadence), so the status changes between calls. `next_action` is one of: "wait" (still processing), "answer_questions" (answer_request takes one answer per question), "done" (see generated_roadmap_item_ids), "cancelled" (terminal, no items), "failed" (see intake_failure_reason), "appr

set_product_visioncan modify

Say what this product is for, so every run knows what it is building toward. `vision_md` is free-form markdown and must be non-empty. Tenant-scoped: a project not in the caller's workspace 404s. Returns {project_id, product_vision_md, updated_at, next_step}.

set_product_goalcan modify

Set the outcome to aim at right now, so work is prioritised toward one thing. `goal_md` is free-form markdown and must be non-empty. Tenant-scoped: a project not in the caller's workspace 404s. Returns {project_id, product_goal_md, updated_at, next_step}.

list_roadmap

See what is planned for a project and in what order. Queued rows also say whether the expand picker would elect them (`electable`) and, when not, why it skips them (`skip_reason`: awaiting_intake_thread | awaiting_clarification | crash_capped | noop_capped | crash_cooldown | noop_cooldown | held_on_open_pr | other). The first reason that applies, in that order, is the one retu

reorder_roadmap

Change what gets built first. `ordered_ids` is the desired front-to-back order of queued roadmap-item ids (list_roadmap returns them). The first id becomes the highest priority — the cadence expands the lowest-priority_int queued item next. Horizon pins still dominate: a pinned-later item stays at the back and a pinned-now item at the front, regardless of position in `ordere

cancel_roadmap_item

Cancel / close a single roadmap item (list_roadmap returns its id). For a DELIVERED or duplicate item that keeps re-parking: once the work has shipped, every expand produces no dev-ready tasks and files a recurring `roadmap_item_parked` escalation that has to be acked. Cancelling drops the item out of the expand queue AND resolves any open expand-lane escalation for it. Busine

clear_horizon_pin

Clear a queued roadmap item's horizon pin (now/next/later → none). A horizon pin dominates the queue sort, so `reorder_roadmap` cannot move a pinned item out of its band — a stale `now` pin on a delivered/duplicate item clogs the front of the queue. This unpins it and reprices the queue so the item follows plain priority order again (and reorder_roadmap can then move it).

rollback_roblox_placecan modify

Roll a Roblox project's place back to a previously-published version. For a `roblox_game` project, re-publishes the RETAINED build artifact for `version_number` (the web Roblox Publishing card lists published versions) — it never rebuilds from source, so rollback is fast + deterministic. This mints a NEW Roblox version pointing at the old build. Unknown version → 404; a ve

project_status

Check how a project is doing: what is in flight, what shipped, what is stuck. Returns lifecycle status, open task count, queued roadmap item count, runs today, verification pass rate, open blockers, pause state, and freshness. Zero `open_tasks` does not mean an empty roadmap: `queued_roadmap_items` counts planned work awaiting expansion, including work held while the scheduler

close_taskcan modify

Close a task that should not be built — a duplicate, or work already shipped. For a task on the board that is obsolete: the change already landed in another PR, a sibling task covers it, or the user changed direction. The task is marked `cancelled` and keeps ALL of its history (acceptance criteria, QA steps, iterations) — nothing is deleted. `reason` is REQUIRED and is re

get_product_goal

Read a project's current product goal (the outcome work is aimed at). The paired setter `set_product_goal` replaces the whole document rather than appending to it, so a write without a prior read silently discards whatever the user already recorded; adding a line means reading the current text, editing it, and setting the full result back. Returns {project_id, product_goal_md

get_product_vision

Read a project's current product vision (what the product is for). The paired setter `set_product_vision` replaces the whole document rather than appending to it, so a write without a prior read silently discards whatever the user already recorded; adding a line means reading the current text, editing it, and setting the full result back. Returns {project_id, product_vision_m

list_escalations

See what the work is stuck on and waiting for a human decision about. `project_status` only COUNTS open escalations; this returns each one with its kind, reason, detail_md, recommended_action, and (when task-scoped) the blocked task's title + PR url. A card about a roadmap item carries its `roadmap_item_id` (null for a task-only, project-level or synthetic row), which matches

resolve_escalationcan modify

Acknowledge a handled ask only when no blocked task becomes invisible. `decision_md` is a required short note (why/how it was resolved), appended to the escalation's detail_md as an audit trail. Resolving a project_pause / orphan_pause RESUMES the project (clears the pause). A blocked task's final task_block/operator_action cannot be acknowledged: its typed retry, platform-pol

retry_blocked_task

Grant one fresh attempt after fixing a recovery-budget task block. ``escalation_id`` is the task_block id returned by ``list_escalations``. Eligibility, tenant, task, failure class, task status, and competing blockers are all derived server-side. This is distinct from ``resolve_escalation``, which remains acknowledgement-only for task blocks. Business-level replay guard: an al

requeue_for_reviewcan modify

Return one blocked task's existing pull request to normal review. Requires a personal OAuth connection of an active workspace owner; workspace keys are refused. Pass the task id (not an escalation id), the PR's exact 40-character head SHA, a reason (1-2000 characters) and a request_id you choose (1-128 of letters, digits, `.`, `:`, `_`, `-`). The task's own open keelen/iter-*

rearm_roadmap_item

Run the dashboard's replay-guarded same-item dependency re-arm. ``escalation_id`` is an ``expand_produced_nothing`` or ``roadmap_item_parked`` escalation id. Keelen verifies delivered structural prerequisites, grants one bounded expand retry, preserves the roadmap item id and ``depends_on_item_ids``, and resolves the matching cards in one transaction. A bounded live GitHub che

resolve_platform_policy_conflict

Resolve a platform-policy dead-end with a structured plan decision. ``decision`` is one of ``reuse_existing_evidence``, ``split_task``, ``raise_project_cap``, or ``remove_scenario``. ``raise_project_cap`` also requires ``project_cap`` (6..32). The decision becomes a new task-plan section; the same task lineage is requeued before the escalation resolves. On a project that runs

set_ui_review_scenario_cap

Set this web_app project's ui-review scenario budget, or reset it. ``scenario_cap`` is an integer from 6 through 32, or ``null`` to reset to the platform default of 12. The screenshot cap derives from it and moves with it, so the two can never starve each other. Raising is always allowed, including from a completely full manifest. LOWERING is refused when the default branch a

replan_taskcan modify

Replace an unretryable blocked task without losing its lineage. Creates a fresh, explicitly planned task under the same roadmap item and attempt lineage, transfers prerequisites and downstream dependents, and cancels the stale task with supersession provenance. The old PR, task, failures, criteria, and evidence remain in the audit history; nothing is marked delivered.

control_schedulercan modify

Start, pause, or resume a project's autonomous work. `action` is one of: "enable" | "disable" | "resume" | "process_now". - enable/disable flip scheduler_enabled (the loop dispatches only enabled, status='active' projects). - resume clears a pause (peak/backoff/manual) so the project dispatches again. - process_now durably prioritizes and immediately attempts the next intake

archive_projectcan modify

Archive a project (reversible shelve) — frees a project slot in-tool. Stops any in-flight machine, then flips the project to `archived`: it drops out of the per-tier project cap (freeing a slot for a new project) and the loop stops dispatching it, but the project + its history are kept and can be restored from the dashboard project page. Stopping a machine DESTROYS the runni

delete_projectcan modify

Soft-delete a project (the harder option) — frees a slot and hides it. Stops any in-flight machine, then flips the project to `deleted`: it disappears from `list_projects`, drops out of the project cap, and the loop stops dispatching it. Deleting ALSO permanently purges the project's stored review artifacts. The row is retained for audit and re-importing the repo restores th

run_security_review

Find security problems in a repository: a deep, whole-codebase review. Spawns a one-shot audit that scans the repo across a kind-aware taxonomy (secrets + git history, vulnerable/abandoned deps, injection, SSRF, path traversal, deserialization, crypto, info-leak, plus web authz/session/CORS, library API-misuse, game client-trust, or infra/CI as applicable) and posts findings t

run_legal_exposure_review

Find where a codebase creates legal exposure (privacy, consent, data handling). Spawns a one-shot review machine that reads the checkout offline and maps what the code DOES onto commonly cited legal obligations, filtered by the project's saved compliance profile (jurisdictions plus eleven product facts). Findings land on the project's Legal page for a human to triage, readable

get_legal_exposure_findings

Read a project's legal exposure findings, worst exposure first. Returns each finding as an OBSERVATION plus the obligation commonly cited over that pattern, its citation, the date the citation was last checked, and whether counsel has reviewed the registry entry (`counsel_reviewed`, false today for every entry). `exposure_order` is an ORDER, never a score: there is no grade, n

run_control_gap_review

Start a source-bound security control gap review for one project. The review records bounded engineering observations under the user's selected Cyber Essentials or CMMC Level 1 or Level 2 context. It does not determine framework standing, and it does not make changes. The `disclaimer_md` field must reach the user before any observation is summarised. The project needs a saved

get_control_gap_findings

Read a project's security-control observations and review boundaries. The result groups records by evidence class without a total or an overall framework outcome. `not_determinable` and `outside_review_scope` qualify every observation. An empty group does not establish that a control is in place, and `disclaimer_md` must reach the user. `limit` defaults to 25 (max 100). `incl

answer_requestcan modify

Answer a thread's clarifying questions (status must be awaiting_answers). `answers` is a list of {"idx": <int from get_request_status>, "answer_md": <str, 1..2000 chars>}. Every question needs exactly one answer. The call flips the thread back to intake_pending; get_request_status reports the subsequent state.

refine_requestcan modify

Say what is wrong with what a request produced, and have it reworked. Status must be "done". `feedback_md` is 1..1979 chars. Moves the thread to refine_pending; get_request_status reports the revised items. Refinement re-plans the thread's roadmap items and can EDIT OR HARD-DELETE the task rows it generated earlier (the machine patch-tasks endpoint deletes them outright), so i

signupcan modify

Create a Keelen account (or start agent login) — emails a 6-digit code. UNAUTHENTICATED — the only tool besides verify_email that works before a bearer key is configured. `email` is where the code is sent. Flow: signup(email) -> the user reads the 6-digit code from their inbox -> verify_email(email, code) returns a reveal-once API key, stored as this server's `Authorizatio

verify_emailcan modify

Redeem the emailed 6-digit code for a reveal-once workspace API key. UNAUTHENTICATED. `email` + `code` must match a code issued by signup(email) within the last 15 minutes (5 attempts max). The returned `api_key` is shown exactly ONCE — store it ONLY in the MCP client config ("Authorization: Bearer <api_key>"), NEVER in a repo or a file you might commit. Reconnecting this se

get_onboarding_status

Check what is set up so far and what to do next to get building. Reports engine_connected / github_connected / project_count / payment_status and a `next_action` string whose value is authoritative, with this tool polled between steps. `next_action` is "call_tool" (the tool named in `next_tool`, with `next_step` describing the call) until onboarding is complete, then "done". (

open_dashboard

Get a one-click, pre-authenticated dashboard sign-in link for the owner. The engine-connect step — and any dashboard task (billing card update, a project page) — needs a signed-in browser. Because this server has already authenticated the workspace owner, this mints a single-use magic-link login token and returns a `/login?token=…` deep link: opening it signs the user st

connect_github

Get the link that connects a GitHub account, so work can reach real repos. Returns an `install_url` that the user opens in a browser to pick the GitHub account/org, approve the install, and land on a "connected" page; get_onboarding_status() then reports github_connected true. The link expires in 10 minutes; a repeat call mints a fresh one.

list_github_repos

List repos the workspace's GitHub connection can see (for import_project). Each entry has full_name, default_branch, private, language, pushed_at. A `full_name` is what import_project(repo_full_name) connects. Reading the list can MINT a short-lived GitHub installation token, so this is not a pure read. Returns 409 if GitHub isn't connected yet — connect_github() is required

import_projectcan modify

Connect an EXISTING GitHub repo as a Keelen project. This is the counterpart of create_project: it is for a repo that already exists, while create_project scaffolds a brand-new one. `repo_full_name` is "owner/repo" — it MUST be visible to the workspace's GitHub connection (list_github_repos() to browse; a non-visible repo 404s). `engine` is OPTIONAL — one of claude_code |

get_provisioning_status

Check whether a new project has finished setting up and is ready to build. Returns overall (provisioning | ready | errored), a 7-stage checklist, and a user-facing error_kind when a stage failed. next_action is "wait" with poll_after_seconds (~10s) while provisioning, "wait" with NO poll_after_seconds when errored (fix the reported cause, then re-check — polling again withou

get_billing

Billing status + a Stripe checkout link when a NEW subscription is needed. `plan` is one of starter | pro | agency (default starter). When the workspace has NO live subscription and needs one (open-signup unpaid, churned, or converting from a free/trial tier), returns a `checkout_url` with next_action "browser" — the user opens it in a browser (the one setup step that can't

project_digest

Read a compact progress digest for one project (delivery, activity, holds, next decision). Returns the closed MCP projection: delivery counts and the five newest delivered items, a recent loop-activity count, current holds, the single highest-priority open decision, and `more_decisions`. Two steering fields are ALWAYS present: `next_action` is `"call_tool"`

stop_iterationcan modify

Stop one running iteration after confirmed runtime cleanup. Requires a personal active workspace owner. Workspace keys and Portfolio delegation cannot stop compute. The exact project iteration number binds the runtime. Cleanup failure leaves it active; a busy subject is refused. Confirmed cleanup finalizes unfinished runtime iterations, holds its legacy tasks for owner close o
