Lists the curated OpenEMIS domains — Attendance, Assessment, Staff, Student, Institution, Schedule, Examination, Report — each with a one-line summary. The agent uses this to figure out *where* a question lives.
openemis_discover
Input: a topic string. Output: up to 30 endpoints relevant to that topic, drawn from the domain knowledge pack and the per-instance manifest. Keeps conversations small regardless of how large the underlying API is.
openemis_list_playbooks
Lists all 40 curated workflow playbooks with id, title, domain, and audience. The agent uses this to find the right step-by-step guide for a user-level task.
openemis_get_playbook
Input: a playbook id. Output: the full playbook — resources, ordered steps, guidance notes, and example queries.
openemis_get
Unified read tool. `{ resource, id?, params? }` — if `id` is present, fetches the singleton; otherwise lists with any combination of `_fields`, `_conditions`, `orderby`, `order`, `page`, `limit`, plus any ad-hoc filter key.
openemis_create
Create a new record. `{ resource, body }` — non-workflow resources only. Workflow-controlled resources (e.g. institution-staff-leave) are blocked and will redirect to the appropriate playbook.
openemis_update
Update an existing record by id. `{ resource, id, body }` — non-workflow resources only.
openemis_delete
Delete a record by id. `{ resource, id }` — non-workflow resources only.
