Tools & capabilities
Oz MCP Server tools 6
oz_agent_runRun `oz agent run` locally with a prompt. Returns the full run payload.oz_agent_run_cloudLaunch a cloud run. **Consumes Warp credits.oz_run_getFetch a run's status and output by id. Read-only.oz_run_listList recent runs; filter by `all` / `active` / `completed` / raw status, plus a numeric `limit`.oz_list_modelsList the AI model ids available to the account and report the current default. Read-only.oz_set_default_modelSet the default Oz model by writing `defaultModel` into the workspace `.warp/warp-bridge.yaml`.
SkeletIQ tools 6
list_projectsFind a project by name. Returns the candidates rather than guessing between them.get_designRead a design, in one of six modes: `overview`, `component`, `brief`, `readiness`, `build_order`, `gaps`. Where a version records its requirements, `overview` and `component` resolve the design's `R`-ids to the requirements they name, and say what became of each.generate_architectureDesign a system from a prompt. Spends credits and takes minutes. A prompt that states no load comes back with a question instead, and nothing is charged: ask your human, and answer "Not sure yet" when they do not know rather than guessing.get_generation_statusPoll a generation started with `wait: false`.critique_architectureCheck a design against SkeletIQ's rules. Deterministic, free, stores nothing. Tell it the `domain` and the `exposure`.check_driftReport what you built; hear what is missing, half done, or not in the design.
