upload_filePut a file online and get a short public link. Pass text directly, or base64 with encoding="base64" for binary files (images, PDFs, zips). An .html file becomes a web page; a .zip containing index.html becomes a website. Returns the URL and expires_at; anonymous callers also get a manage_token. Status may be "checking"/"publishing" (call get_link before sharing) or "unpublished" (not published). Limit 20 MB inline; use create_upload_session for bigger files.
create_upload_sessionFor files too large to send inline: reserves a link and returns a one-time upload_url. PUT the raw bytes there (e.g. give the user the returned curl command), then poll get_link with the slug (and manage_token) until status is "live".
publish_sitePut a web page or small static site you created online instantly. Pass {"files": {"index.html": "<!doctype html>…", "style.css": "…", "app.js": "…"}} (paths relative to the site root; index.html required). Images can go in base64_files. Returns the public URL. Pages are served sandboxed on their own link.
get_linkStatus of a link: live, checking, publishing, unpublished, in_review, removed (by moderation: removed_reason + appeal_url), expired or awaiting_upload; plus expiry, size and views (null when the account’s plan has no view counts). Anonymous callers pass the manage_token they got on creation.
list_linksList the links in the connected Put It Online account (newest first, permanent first). Requires a connected account.
delete_linkPermanently delete a link and its files. Account owners can delete their links; anonymous callers need the manage_token. This cannot be undone.
set_passwordProtect a link with a password (visitors must enter it), or pass null to remove it. Requires a connected account whose plan includes passwords; otherwise returns a subscription_required error.
make_permanentTurn an expiring link into a permanent one (uses one of the plan's permanent slots; see get_account). Requires a connected account whose plan includes permanent links.
extendRestart an expiring link's expiry clock (also brings back a recently expired link). Permanent links are unaffected. Requires a connected account whose plan includes extending.
get_accountThe connected account's plan, permanent-link slots used/available, size limit and features.

inspectDocument and media evidence when Markdown is not enough. video_timeline (bounded scene/cue timeline) and render_frame (actual decoded frames), and cite_check (quote/location support, not semantic truth), are anymd Pro; PDF operations: inspect (page facts, metadata), render_page (PNG images), extract_regions (crop bounding boxes), ocr_pages / analyze_regions (configured OCR or vision provider), structure (JSON with document map, elements, geometry; profile quality|research adds trust and accessibility reports), compare (page-level diff of sources[0] vs sources[1]).
outlineReturn a document heading tree with stable node ids, title paths, page/slide/chapter ranges and Markdown byte ranges. PDF bookmarks or detected headings, Word headings, PowerPoint slides, EPUB chapters and headings, HTML and Markdown. format json (default) or tree. Pass a node id to read to fetch that section.
readRead any document as clean Markdown: PDF, Word (DOCX), PowerPoint (PPTX), Excel (XLSX/XLS/ODS), CSV, EPUB, HTML or a web URL, Markdown/text, images (metadata + OCR), audio/video (metadata, chapters, subtitles). Pages/slides/sheets carry  style markers for citation. Long documents stop at max_tokens (default 20000) and end with a cursor to continue; choose pages with pages: "1-5,8". A directory returns its readable files.
searchSearch documents for text: one file, many files, whole directories (recursive, .gitignore aware), or URLs, across every format read supports. Returns each hit as file + page/slide/sheet + a snippet with the match in bold. mode auto (default) finds the exact phrase and falls back to BM25-ranked passages when there is none; literal or ranked force one. Narrow directories with glob, e.g. "*.pdf".
