Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Fizzy MCP Tools (7)

fizzy_account
Get, set, or list accounts for API calls. Manages the session default so you don't need to pass `account_slug` on every tool call. **When to use:** - List available accounts to see what you have access to - Set working account after discovering accounts - Check current default before operations **Don't use when:** Operating across multiple accounts simultaneously — pass `account_slug` explicitly instead. **Arguments:** - `action` (required): "get" to check current default, "set" to change it, "list" to see available accounts - `account_slug` (required for set): Account slug (e.g., "897362094") **Returns:** - get: `{ "action": "get", "account_slug": "897362094" }` or `null` if not set - set: `{ "action": "set", "account_slug": "897362094" }` - list: `{ "action": "list", "accounts": [{ "slug": "...", "name": "...", "id": "..." }] }` **Related:** Most tools auto-resolve account via FIZZY_ACCOUNT env var or single-account auto-detection.
fizzy_boards
List boards in the account with column summaries. Get an overview of boards and their column structure including card counts. **When to use:** - Discover board IDs and column IDs for subsequent operations - See card counts per column across all boards - Find the right board/column to create cards or triage **Fizzy column conventions:** Every board has three implicit columns not returned in the columns array: - **Maybe?** (inbox): Untriaged cards. Cards here have no `column_id`. New cards start here. - **Not Now**: Deferred cards. Move here via `status: "not_now"` in `fizzy_task`. - **Done**: Closed cards. Move here via `status: "closed"` in `fizzy_task`. The `columns` array only contains custom workflow columns (e.g., "In Progress", "Backlog"). To move a card from a column back to Maybe?, use `fizzy_task` with `column_id` omitted and no status change. **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `limit` (optional): Max items to return, 1-100 (default: 25) - `cursor` (optional): Continuation cursor from previous response **Returns:** JSON with items and pagination metadata. ```json {"items": [{"id": "board_1", "name": "Project", "columns": [{"id": "col_1", "name": "Backlog"}]}], "pagination": {...}} ``` **Related:** Use board ID with `fizzy_task` to create cards. Use column IDs for triage.

fizzy_search
Search for cards with filters. Find cards matching criteria or review board contents. **When to use:** - Find cards by tag, assignee, or board - Filter by index category (closed, stalled, golden, etc.) **Don't use when:** You already know the card number — use `fizzy_get_card` instead. **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `board_id` (optional): Filter to cards on this board - `indexed_by` (optional): Filter by index category: closed | not_now | all | stalled | postponing_soon | golden - `tag_ids` (optional): Filter to cards with ALL these tag IDs - `assignee_ids` (optional): Filter to cards assigned to ANY of these user IDs - `sorted_by` (optional): Sort order: newest | oldest | recently_active - `terms` (optional): Search terms to filter cards by text content - `limit` (optional): Max items, 1-100 (default: 25) - `cursor` (optional): Continuation cursor from previous response **Returns:** JSON with items and pagination metadata. ```json {"items": [{"number": 42, "title": "...", ...}], "pagination": {"returned": 25, "has_more": true, "next_cursor": "..."}} ``` **Related:** Use card number with `fizzy_get_card` for full details.
fizzy_get_card
Get full details of a card by its number or ID. Retrieve complete card data including description, steps count, and metadata. **When to use:** - Need full description or metadata for a specific card - Check step completion status or see all tags/assignees **Don't use when:** Scanning multiple cards - use `fizzy_search` first. **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `card_number` (recommended): The human-readable `#` number from URLs/lists (e.g., 42) - `card_id` (alternative): The UUID from API responses. Use `card_number` when possible. **IMPORTANT:** Provide `card_number` (integer) OR `card_id` (string UUID), not both. The `card_number` is the `#` visible in the UI (e.g., #42). The `card_id` is the internal UUID. **Returns:** JSON with id, number, title, description (markdown), status, board_id, column_id, tags array, assignees array, steps_count, completed_steps_count, comments_count, url, created_at, updated_at, closed_at (null if open).

fizzy_task
Create or update a card with full control over status, tags, steps, and column placement. **Mode detection:** - `card_number` absent → CREATE mode (requires `board_id` + `title`) - `card_number` present → UPDATE mode **Create mode:** Creates card, then best-effort: adds steps, toggles tags, triages to column. **Update mode:** Updates title/description if provided. Changes status (open/closed/not_now). Manages tags with add/remove. Moves card to column (from inbox or another column). Same-column moves are skipped. **Fizzy column conventions:** - **Maybe?** (inbox): Cards with no `column_id`. This is where new cards start. - **Not Now**: Set `status: "not_now"` to move here (defers the card). - **Done**: Set `status: "closed"` to move here (completes the card). - **Custom columns**: Use `column_id` from `fizzy_boards` to triage to workflow columns. **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `card_number` (optional): Card to update. Omit to create new card. - `board_id` (optional): Board ID. Required for create mode. - `title` (optional): Card title. Required for create mode. - `description` (optional): Card body in markdown - `status` (optional): open | closed | not_now — changes card lifecycle state - `column_id` (optional): Move card to this column (works from inbox or other columns; skipped if already there) - `position` (optional): top | bottom (default: bottom) — position in column - `add_tags` (optional): Tag titles to add - `remove_tags` (optional): Tag titles to remove - `steps` (optional): Checklist items to create (create mode only) **Returns:** JSON with `mode`, `card` (id, number, title, url, status), `operations` summary, `failures` array. **Examples:** Create: `{board_id: "...", title: "New task", steps: ["Step 1", "Step 2"]}` Update: `{card_number: 42, status: "closed", add_tags: ["done"]}`
fizzy_comment
Manage comments on a card: create, list, update, or delete. **Actions:** - `create` (default): Post a new comment - `list`: Get all comments on a card - `update`: Edit an existing comment (requires `comment_id` + `body`) - `delete`: Remove a comment (requires `comment_id`) **Arguments:** - `action` (optional): "create" | "list" | "update" | "delete" (default: "create") - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `card_number` (required): Card number - `comment_id` (optional): Required for update/delete - `body` (optional): Comment body in markdown. Required for create/update **Returns:** JSON with comment details, list of comments, or deletion confirmation.
fizzy_step
Create, complete, update, uncomplete, or delete a step on a card. **Mode detection:** - `step` absent → CREATE (requires `content`) - `step` present, no other params → COMPLETE (default action) - `step` + `content` → UPDATE content - `step` + `completed: false` → UNCOMPLETE - `step` + `delete: true` → DELETE **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `card_number` (required): Card number containing the step - `step` (optional): Content substring to match OR 1-based index to identify existing step - `content` (optional): Step text for create or update - `completed` (optional): Set completion state (true or false) - `delete` (optional): Delete the step **Returns:** JSON with step `id`, `content`, `completed` status. **Examples:** - Create: `{card_number: 42, content: "Write tests"}` - Complete: `{card_number: 42, step: "Write tests"}` - Uncomplete: `{card_number: 42, step: 1, completed: false}` - Update: `{card_number: 42, step: 1, content: "Write unit tests"}` - Delete: `{card_number: 42, step: "Write tests", delete: true}`

Excel Vision MCP Tools (13)

list_sheets
List all sheets in an Excel workbook with their dimensions and metadata. Returns sheet names, row/column counts, data ranges, merged cell counts, and total embedded image count. Use this to understand the structure of an Excel file before reading its contents. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx file. @return: Formatted text with workbook structure overview.
read_excel_data
Read cell data from an Excel sheet with pagination for large files. Returns cell values organized by row with coordinate labels and formatting markers ([B]=bold, [S]=strikethrough, [HL:color]=highlight, [C:color]=font color) that reveal the author's emphasis and status marks. Hidden rows/columns are skipped by default — the author hid them for a reason — except hidden cells that visible formulas depend on, which are kept and marked [HIDDEN-REF]. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx file. @param sheet_name: Sheet to read. None = first/active sheet. @param start_row: Starting row number (1-indexed). @param max_rows: Maximum rows to return (default 200). @param include_hidden: Set true to also read hidden rows/columns. @return: Formatted text table with cell values and formatting markers.
extract_images
Extract all embedded images from an Excel file. Uses dual extraction strategy: cell-position mapping (primary) and ZIP archive scanning (fallback) to ensure no images are missed. Returns images as base64-encoded ImageContent that AI can visually analyze. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx file. @param sheet_name: Specific sheet, or None for all sheets. @param max_width: Max width in pixels for image optimization (default 1024). @param max_height: Max height in pixels for image optimization (default 1024). @return: Mixed list of TextContent (metadata) and ImageContent (images).
read_full_content
Read the FULL content of an Excel file including all text data AND embedded images. This is the primary tool for comprehensive document analysis. Returns all sheet data as structured text followed by all extracted images with their cell positions. Ideal for analyzing documents where both text and diagrams/screenshots are essential, such as requirement definitions, reports, or design specs. For very large files, data is paginated per sheet. Image extraction uses dual strategy (cell-mapping + archive) for maximum coverage. Cell text carries formatting markers ([B]=bold, [S]=strikethrough, [HL:color]= highlight) so emphasis and status marks survive into the analysis. Hidden rows/columns are skipped by default, except hidden cells that visible formulas depend on. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx file. @param max_rows_per_sheet: Max rows to read per sheet (default 500). @param max_image_width: Max width for image optimization (default 1024). @param max_image_height: Max height for image optimization (default 1024). @param include_hidden: Set true to also read hidden rows/columns. @return: Mixed list of TextContent and ImageContent covering entire workbook.
get_workbook_overview
Get a quick summary overview of an Excel workbook. Returns file metadata, sheet list with dimensions, image count, and merged cell information. Use this for a fast assessment before deeper analysis. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx file. @return: Formatted text summary.
search_excel
Search for text content across all cells in an Excel workbook. Performs case-insensitive substring search and returns matching cells with their coordinates and values. Hidden rows/columns are excluded by default. Limited to 100 results. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx file. @param query: Text to search for. @param sheet_name: Limit to specific sheet, or None for all sheets. @param include_hidden: Set true to also search hidden rows/columns. @return: Formatted text with search results.
create_excel_file
Create a new empty .xlsx workbook. @param file_path: Absolute destination path; parent directory must exist. @param sheet_names: Sheet names to create in order. None = single "Sheet1". @param overwrite: Set true to replace an existing file. Default false. @return: Confirmation with the created sheet list.
add_excel_sheet
Add a new empty sheet to an existing workbook. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx/.xlsm file. @param sheet_name: Name for the new sheet; must not already exist. @param position: 0-based index to insert at. None = append at the end. @return: Confirmation with the updated sheet list.
update_excel_cells
Set individual cells by coordinate, e.g. {"A1": "Title", "B2": 42}. String values starting with "=" are written as formulas (e.g. "=SUM(A1:A5)"). Note: newly written formulas have no calculated value until the file is opened in Excel. For cells inside a merged range, write to the range's top-left anchor cell. The save is atomic — a failed write never corrupts the original file. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx/.xlsm file. @param updates: Mapping of cell coordinate to value. @param sheet_name: Target sheet. None = first sheet. @return: Confirmation with the number of cells written.
write_excel_rows
Write a rectangular block of rows starting at start_cell. Efficient for tabular data: pass a list of rows, each a list of values. Existing cells in the target range are overwritten; cells outside it are untouched. The save is atomic. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx/.xlsm file. @param rows: List of rows, each a list of cell values. @param sheet_name: Target sheet. None = first sheet. @param start_cell: Top-left coordinate of the block (default "A1"). @return: Confirmation with the written range.
insert_excel_image
Insert an image from a local file into a workbook, anchored at a cell. @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx/.xlsm file. @param image_path: Absolute path to the image file (PNG/JPEG/GIF/BMP). @param cell: Anchor cell coordinate (e.g. "B2"). @param sheet_name: Target sheet. None = first sheet. @param width: Display width in pixels. None = natural size. @param height: Display height in pixels. None = natural size. @return: Confirmation with anchor position and display size.
format_excel_cells
Apply formatting to a cell range: font, colors, borders, alignment, number format. Only the attributes you pass are changed; existing styling is preserved. Example — style a header row: cell_range="A1:D1", bold=true, font_color="FFFFFF", fill_color="4472C4", horizontal_align="center", border_style="thin". @param file_path: Absolute path to the .xlsx/.xlsm file. @param cell_range: Range like "A1:C10" or a single cell like "B2". @param sheet_name: Target sheet. None = first sheet. @param font_name: Font family (e.g. "Calibri"). @param font_size: Font size in points. @param bold: Bold on/off. @param italic: Italic on/off. @param font_color: Text color, RRGGBB hex (e.g. "FFFFFF"). @param fill_color: Background color, RRGGBB hex (e.g. "4472C4"). @param border_style: thin, medium, thick, double, dashed, or dotted. @param border_edges: "all" = every cell; "outline" = outer edge of range only. @param horizontal_align: left, center, right, or justify. @param vertical_align: top, center, or bottom. @param wrap_text: Enable/disable text wrapping. @param number_format: Excel format code (e.g. "#,##0.00", "dd/mm/yyyy", "0%"). @return: Confirmation with the number of cells formatted.
