Store Builder tools 37

  • sb_connectLog in and list the sites this account can operate. Call this first. Reads SB_EMAIL and SB_PASSWORD from the environment unless you pass them.
  • sb_site_listList the sites this account can operate.
  • sb_api_findFind API operations by intent (query), or get a call sheet (id): parameters, credential, body fields and handler caveats. Reaches all 892 operations.
  • sb_api_callCall an operation from sb_api_find (id), or a route the catalog lacks (method+path); dry run by default. pick selects fields, max_items caps lists, item_offset skips items. Lists over 60 KB say so.
  • sb_page_openOpen a page for editing and return its outline. Call before any sb_add / sb_set / sb_move / sb_remove. Find page ids with sb_api_find "list pages". Or form_id: edit that form's field document (fields, specials.formRules on its root).
  • sb_page_repairRename a page root that is not "ROOT" (sppro_1, rt_<hex> — left by older seeds) to ROOT, for one page or, without page_id, every page on the site. Draft only; a published page is listed for re-publishing. dry_run (default true) lists what would change.
  • sb_outlineThe open page as a compressed tree — id, type, name, child count, band, and whether a node is a shared global or a site overlay. Never the raw document: a real page is hundreds of KB of JSON.
  • sb_node_readOne node in full — style, config, specials, per-breakpoint overrides, bindings.
  • sb_catalog_searchFind an element type by what it does — or OMIT query to browse every type, the only way to meet one you would not have searched for. detail:true adds the AI hints, as does sb_traits_for. query "icon:<word>" lists icon names.
  • sb_traits_forThis element's INSPECTOR, as a person sees it: tabs, groups, and every control name — with what each DECLARED control writes, and the AI hints for using the element. Read this before styling an element; pass control to read one control in full.
  • sb_addAdd an element — or a whole NESTED subtree — under a parent. One call builds a complete section: pass children rather than calling this once per node.
  • sb_setWrite style, config or specials keys on one node, or on many through edits (one save, one live frame). Per BREAKPOINT by default; base:true writes the fallback layer, right for a value that should not vary.
