Skylight MCP tools 114

  • skylight_list_framesList Skylight frames (family hubs) on this account.
  • skylight_get_frameGet one Skylight frame and its settings.
  • skylight_list_frame_membersList members (frame_users) of a Skylight frame.
  • skylight_list_devicesList physical devices attached to a Skylight frame.
  • skylight_get_plus_accessGet Skylight Plus subscription / entitlement status.
  • skylight_get_reward_pointsGet reward-point balances per family member (lifetime earned + current balance).
  • skylight_get_household_configGet household configuration for the frame.
  • skylight_set_device_albumSet which photo album a device displays.
  • skylight_rename_deviceRename a Skylight device.
  • skylight_update_frameUpdate Skylight frame display/sleep settings. Setting open_to_public:true makes the frame publicly reachable, so that one change asks the user to confirm first: a confirmation prompt where the client supports one; otherwise the first call returns a preview and a confirmToken, and only a repeat call with that token proceeds (see MCP_CONFIRM_MODE). Every other setting applies directly.
  • skylight_rename_frameRename a Skylight frame.
  • skylight_update_profileUpdate the frame profile (name, birthday).
