Cognigy AI MCP Management Server Tools (138)

list_projects

Lists all Cognigy.AI projects accessible by your API key. Use this to discover available projects before working with flows, intents, or other resources.

list_flows

Lists all flows in a Cognigy.AI project. Flows are conversation logic containers. Use this to discover flows before reading or modifying them.

get_flow

Gets detailed metadata about a specific Cognigy.AI flow. Returns flow configuration, locale info, and timestamps. Use this to inspect a flow before modifying it.

get_flow_settings

Gets the settings/configuration of a Cognigy.AI flow. Returns NLU settings, thresholds, and other flow-level configurations. Use this before updating flow settings.

get_latest_log_entries

Gets the latest execution log entries from a Cognigy.AI project. Use this for debugging flow execution, viewing errors, or monitoring agent behavior.

get_nodes

Lists all nodes in a Cognigy.AI flow. Nodes are the building blocks of conversation logic (Say, Question, If, Code, etc.). Use this to explore flow structure before reading specific nodes or modifying the flow.

get_node

Gets detailed configuration of a specific node in a Cognigy.AI flow. Returns the node's type, label, config fields, and settings. Use this to inspect node behavior before modifying it.

search_nodes

Searches for nodes in a Cognigy.AI flow by text content. Finds nodes containing the search term in their configuration (messages, conditions, code, etc.). Use this to locate specific content within large flows.

get_node_descriptors

Gets all available node types (blueprints) that can be created in a Cognigy.AI flow. Returns node type definitions including their fields, appearance, and constraints. Use this to understand what nodes can be added to a flow.

list_intents

Lists all intents in a Cognigy.AI flow. Intents are the NLU triggers that match user utterances to flow logic. Use this to explore NLU configuration before training or modifying intents.

get_intent

Gets detailed configuration of a specific intent in a Cognigy.AI flow. Returns the intent's conditions, rules, confirmation sentences, and settings. Use this to inspect NLU behavior before modifying.

list_endpoints

Lists all endpoints in a Cognigy.AI project. Endpoints are channel connectors (Webchat, REST, Voice, etc.) that expose flows/agents to users. Use this to discover deployed channels.

list_agents

Lists the assistants on the account (id, name, model, voice, transcriber) — the entry point to find an `assistantId`.

deploy_agent

One tool = one full vertical deployment. `deploy_agent(vertical: elagueur\

run_eval

The agent tests itself.** Fetches the live system prompt, simulates N scripted scenarios against the configured LLM, scores behavior (close speed, no price quoting, spelled digit confirmation, urgency priority, solicitation refusal), returns a `/100` grade with PASS / WARN / FAIL. No audio, no bill…

audio_forensics

Downloads the 3 recording tracks of a call (mono / customer / assistant), runs RMS-per-window analysis, and **locates the noise source**. Automates the exact manual investigation that found a "computer noise" issue was injected downstream of the caller's mic, not in Vapi.

prompt_diff

Prompts as code. `snapshot` captures the live prompt into local history, `diff` compares two versions, `rollback` pushes an old prompt back to Vapi.

regression_gate

CI for prompts.** Runs `run_eval` and blocks the update if the score regressed vs the stored baseline. Returns allow/deny with the reason.
