MCP Tools Reference
WarmHub exposes a full MCP tool catalog for organizations, repositories, shapes, things, assertions, writes, subscriptions, actions, collections, and meta (capability discovery). Repo-level tools take orgName and repoName as arguments.
SDK and MCP Method Map
Section titled “SDK and MCP Method Map”If you switch between the MCP tools and the TypeScript SDK, the names line up almost one-to-one. A few common pairs:
| MCP tool | SDK method |
|---|---|
warmhub_thing_head | client.thing.head(...) |
warmhub_thing_query | client.thing.query(...) |
warmhub_thing_get | client.thing.get(...) |
warmhub_shape_list | client.shape.list(...) |
warmhub_subscription_list | client.subscription.list(...) |
warmhub_commit_submit | client.commit.apply(...) — note the verb differs |
warmhub_commit_validate | client.commit.validate(...) |
warmhub_capabilities | client.diagnostics.capabilities() — returns the backend API version, minimum supported SDK, minimum supported clients, write contract version, feature flags, and the client flags honored for your request (not the tool catalog) |
warmhub_repo_describe | client.repo.describe() — returns repo metadata, shapes, stats, subscriptions, license, and a page of HEAD records; the MCP tool additionally returns the write contract and generated write examples, which the SDK method omits |
Most tools follow the warmhub_<domain>_<verb> ↔ client.<domain>.<verb> pattern; the last four rows are the exceptions — the SDK verb differs (commit.apply), returns different data (diagnostics.capabilities), or omits the MCP-only write contract and generated examples (repo.describe).
Meta Tools
Section titled “Meta Tools”Orientation and capability discovery. The meta category covers five tools:
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
warmhub_capabilities | Static, endpoint-scoped overview of the MCP tool catalog: tools grouped by category, a workflow cookbook, wref syntax, and a pointer to the full write operation contract. Read-only; no arguments. |
warmhub_repo_describe | Per-repo live view: schema, shape descriptions, field types, summary stats, wref syntax, operation contract, write examples generated from the repo’s own shapes, and the repo’s license. Documented under Repository Tools. |
warmhub_use | No-op tool used to signal intent or context to the MCP host. Takes no arguments; returns an advisory noop note. Useful for structured agent workflows that declare what they are about to do before acting. |
warmhub_channel | No-op tool used to establish or label a logical channel within a session. Takes no arguments; returns an advisory noop note. |
warmhub_doctor | Diagnostic tool. Takes no arguments. Returns { ok: true, capabilities, hint }, where capabilities is a diagnostics payload containing apiVersion, minSupportedSdk, minSupportedClients, writeContractVersion, features, and honoredClientFlags. The last of those echoes back which client flags — opt-in compatibility switches a client declares on its request — were honored for your request; it is empty when you declared none. |
Call warmhub_capabilities first to orient on what tools exist; then call warmhub_repo_describe to learn the repo-specific shapes and write examples.
warmhub_capabilities
Section titled “warmhub_capabilities”Takes no arguments. Returns a static orientation payload with the following fields:
| Response Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
categories | object[] | One entry per tool category (org, repo, shape, thing-read, collection, commit, subscription, action, meta), each with name, description, and the tools (name, description, readOnly, openWorld, destructive, annotationJustification) advertised on the current endpoint. |
cookbook | object[] | Common workflows as { task, steps: [{ tool, note }] } — e.g. discovering shapes, searching by content, writing first data. |
usagePatterns | object[] | Query-discipline guidance — recommended patterns for reading, querying, and writing efficiently. |
wrefSyntax | object | Local and canonical wref forms, version modifiers, path/name constraints, and write-path preview rules. |
commitContractRef | object | Pointer to warmhub_repo_describe, which returns the full write operation contract, operation variants, and live write examples scoped to a specific repo. |
categories lists every registered tool — there is one endpoint and one catalog.
Call warmhub_capabilities first to orient an agent, then call warmhub_repo_describe for per-repo schema and write examples.

Section titled “warmhub_repo_describe”The most important tool for agent bootstrapping. Returns:
- Repository metadata
- Shape definitions with field types and optional shape-level
description - Per-shape
queryHintswithqueryableFields,wrefFields, and suggested MCP query patterns - Per-field descriptions inlined into each field entry. Fields without descriptions appear as bare type strings (e.g.
"string"); fields with descriptions appear as{ "type": "number", "description": "Horizontal position" }. Descriptions are extracted from typed field objects. - Summary counts (
shapeCount,subscriptionCount,totalCount) - Counts by kind and by shape
- Sample wrefs from the repo
- Wref syntax reference
- Operation contract —
operationVariants(the add/revise/retract/rename/reaffirm forms),commitRules(revise-data, retract-only, illegal op sequences, noop, opinion rules), andaboutSemantics— pluswriteExamplesgenerated from the repo’s own shapes - Write examples generated from actual repo shapes
license— the repository’s current license metadata, ornullwhen the repo has no active, visible, valid license declaration (see the response field description below)- Indexed field metadata when
includeIndexedFieldsis set (see below)
Call this first when connecting to a repo.
Input parameters:
| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | yes (global) | Organization name |
repoName | string | yes (global) | Repository name |
includeIndexedFields | boolean | no | When true, the response includes an indexedFields block with typed field index state across the repo’s shapes. Defaults to false. |
Response fields (selected top-level):
| Response Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
license | object | null | The repository’s current license metadata, or null when the repo has no active, visible, valid license declaration. Subfields are listed below. |
When license is non-null, the object carries these fields:
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
spdxId | string | The SPDX license identifier. Always present when license is non-null. |
licenseWref | string | null | Wref of the license declaration thing. |
spdxExpression | string | null | The full SPDX expression as stored. |
appliesTo | string | null | Wref of the subject the license applies to. |
attributionText | string | null | Optional attribution text. |
declaredBy | string | null | Wref of the declaring entity. |
sourceUrl | string | null | Link to the license text. |
The response includes an additionalInformation array pointing at the three well-known Content shape wrefs:
"additionalInformation": [ { "name": "Readme", "wref": "Content/Readme", "synthesized": false }, { "name": "Agents", "wref": "Content/Agents", "synthesized": false }, { "name": "LlmsTxt", "wref": "Content/LlmsTxt", "synthesized": true }]When includeIndexedFields: true is passed, the response also includes an indexedFields block. The block exposes four state buckets — ready, building, failed, and other — each containing an array of field entries. Every entry carries the field’s state, associated timestamps, and backfill counters. Parse all four buckets when acting on index state: a field in building is not yet queryable, and a field in failed requires attention before structured queries against it will succeed.
Content Tools
Section titled “Content Tools”Two tools cover the built-in Content shape — Readme, Agents, and the synthesized LlmsTxt — discriminated by a kind argument.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
warmhub_repo_content_get | Fetch repo Content markdown by kind. For readme/agents, returns a synthesized empty stub when nothing has been written — never null. kind: llms-txt always returns a synthesized response with the rendered sitemap and a structured refs field. Read-only. |
warmhub_repo_content_set | Set Content/Readme or Content/Agents markdown (commits an add or revise operation). Writes to kind: llms-txt are rejected — it is synthesized and cannot be stored. Requires repo:write. |
WarmHub no longer hosts README/AGENTS generation. To draft content, run the CLI command wh repo content prompt <org/repo> --kind readme to get an agent-ready prompt, let your own agent write the markdown, then persist it with warmhub_repo_content_set.
warmhub_repo_content_get
Section titled “warmhub_repo_content_get”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | yes | Organization name |
repoName | string | yes | Repository name |
kind | string | yes | One of readme, agents, or llms-txt |
For kind: readme and kind: agents, returns the stored content thing after the first write. When nothing has been written yet, the response is a synthesized empty stub ({ synthesized: true, shape: "Content", name: "...", data: { content: "" }, active: true }).
For kind: llms-txt, always returns a synthesized response. data.content contains the full rendered markdown, and the response includes a refs field with partitioned outbound/inbound references; cross-org refs the caller cannot read are omitted. (MCP requests are always authenticated; for the anonymous reduced-body variant of llms.txt, see Content Shape.)
warmhub_repo_content_set
Section titled “warmhub_repo_content_set”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | yes | Organization name |
repoName | string | yes | Repository name |
kind | string | yes | One of readme, agents, or llms-txt. llms-txt is read-only — set attempts are rejected. |
content | string | yes | Markdown content to store |
eventRequestId | UUID | yes | Caller-known idempotency key for this write request. Reuse only for an identical retry. |
Returns the standard single-operation commit result: operationCount, one operations[] entry (name, operation, version, dataHash), plus optional committer, createdByEmail, and message metadata. Unlike warmhub_commit_submit, this helper does not return partial-result fields; rejected writes surface as tool errors.
Thing / Query Tools
Section titled “Thing / Query Tools”| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
warmhub_thing_head | List all items at HEAD with optional filters (shape, kind, glob match). Supports incremental reads via sinceRepoSeq — see the parameter reference below. Use to enumerate a repo’s current state; for fuzzy lookups use warmhub_thing_search. |
warmhub_thing_get | Fetch one thing by wref. For many wrefs in one call use warmhub_thing_get_many; to resolve a wref’s canonical identity first use warmhub_wref_resolve. |
warmhub_thing_graph | Get one thing and its embedded assertion/about/wref graph to a bounded depth. |
warmhub_thing_get_many | Batch-fetch things by wref in one call — prefer over looping warmhub_thing_get. Missing wrefs are returned in a missing array. |
warmhub_thing_history | List version history for a thing. Provide wref for one thing’s history, or shape/about to survey history across matching things. With about, resolveCollections:true includes assertions about Arc/Bond/Set/List collections containing the target identity. |
warmhub_thing_about | List assertions whose about target resolves to the supplied target identity. Use resolveCollections:true to include assertions about Arc/Bond/Set/List collections containing the target; pinned @vN inputs stay version-exact and do not expand collection members. Use warmhub_thing_refs with direction:"inbound" for broader backlink discovery. |
warmhub_thing_query | Query things by structured filters (shape, kind, about, glob match). Supports incremental reads via sinceRepoSeq — see the parameter reference below. Best for exact/structured lookups; for fuzzy or semantic search use warmhub_thing_search. |
warmhub_thing_search | Full-text/vector/hybrid search across thing data. Best for fuzzy lookups; for exact field matches use warmhub_thing_query with a glob filter. |
warmhub_thing_refs | List inbound or outbound refs for a target wref. Use direction:"inbound" to find what references X. Pair with warmhub_thing_get to resolve details. |
warmhub_wref_resolve | Resolve a wref (local or canonical) to its canonical thing identity. Accepts cross-repo canonical wrefs; pair with warmhub_thing_get to fetch the resolved data. |
warmhub_thing_head
Section titled “warmhub_thing_head”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
shape | string | no | Filter by shape name |
kind | string | no | Filter by kind. One of shape, thing, assertion, or collection. |
match | string | no | Glob pattern to filter wrefs (* = one segment, ** = zero or more) |
where | object[] | no | Typed field-value predicates ({ fieldPath, op, rhs }), ANDed, max 8. See Field-Value Predicates. |
excludeInfraShapes | boolean | no | Hide internal infra shapes from results |
count | boolean | no | Return count of matching items instead of the full result list |
limit | integer | no | Max items (minimum 1) |
cursor | string | no | Pagination cursor from previous response |
sinceRepoSeq | integer | no | Return only items that changed after this repo sequence number. Pass -1 to start from the beginning. Reuse the same lower bound across all pages of a single incremental read; only persist the repoSeq returned on the exhausted final page or on an exact count result — intermediate pages do not carry repoSeq. Requires full-repository read authority. Not available when using glob filters (match). |
When an incremental read is complete (final page exhausted, or count: true result), the response carries a top-level repoSeq field. Use that value as sinceRepoSeq on the next poll to receive only subsequent changes.
warmhub_thing_get
Section titled “warmhub_thing_get”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
wref | string | yes | WarmHub reference |
version | integer | no | Specific version number |
includeRetracted | boolean | no | Return the thing even if it is retracted |
dataMode | string | no | "auto" (default) or "full". In "auto" mode, collections larger than 100 members return a summary (member count plus a truncated preview) instead of the full body; fixed-arity Arc/Bond collections and collections with 100 or fewer members keep their full body. Use "full" to force the complete body for large collections too. |
orgName/repoName may be omitted when wref is a durable id — a durable id routes itself to the repo that owns the target.
warmhub_thing_graph
Section titled “warmhub_thing_graph”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
wref | string | yes | WarmHub reference |
version | integer | no | Specific version number |
depth | integer | no | Embedded traversal depth, 1 through 5 |
limit | integer | no | Max embedded nodes, 1 through 500 |
Returns the root thing with readable assertion about links and readable wref-typed fields embedded as objects. Refs the caller cannot read remain string wrefs, with no internal IDs or denial reasons exposed.
orgName/repoName may be omitted when wref is a durable id.
warmhub_thing_get_many
Section titled “warmhub_thing_get_many”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
wrefs | string[] | yes | Array of wrefs, 1 through 500 entries per call |
version | integer | no | Pin all lookups to this version |
includeRetracted | boolean | no | Return things even when retracted at HEAD or at the requested version (mirrors warmhub_thing_get) |
dataMode | string | no | "auto" (default) or "full". In "auto" mode, collections larger than 100 members return a summary (member count plus a truncated preview) instead of the full body; fixed-arity Arc/Bond collections and collections with 100 or fewer members keep their full body. Pass dataMode:"full" to force large collection bodies. |
Missing wrefs are returned in a missing array. When a top-level version is supplied and the input wref is not already pinned, missing entries are version-qualified (Shape@vN or Shape/name@vN) so the round-trip is unambiguous; per-wref pins survive intact (no double-pinning). Duplicates in wrefs are not deduped — they count toward the 500-entry cap and produce duplicate items/missing entries.
warmhub_thing_history
Section titled “warmhub_thing_history”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
wref | string | no | Thing wref |
shape | string | no | Filter by shape |
about | string | no | Filter by about target |
includeRetracted | boolean | no | Allow resolving retracted shape or about targets (does not filter results) |
resolveCollections | boolean | no | With about, include assertion history for Arc/Bond/Set/List collections containing the target identity, including when the about wref is pinned |
limit | integer | no | Max versions to return |
cursor | string | no | Pagination cursor from previous response |
At least one of wref, shape, or about is required.
orgName/repoName may be omitted only when wref is a durable id. shape/about surveys and local wrefs always require orgName/repoName — a repo-less filter query is rejected.
warmhub_thing_about
Section titled “warmhub_thing_about”By default, this tool returns assertions whose about target resolves to the supplied target identity. It does not expand collection member refs, so assertions about Arc, Bond, Set, or List collection things that contain the target appear only when resolveCollections:true is set. Pinned @vN inputs stay version-exact and do not expand collection members.
For broader graph discovery, use warmhub_thing_refs with direction:"inbound" to find current things that reference the target through wref fields. Use warmhub_thing_about when you specifically need assertion records and about-target filtering.
orgName/repoName may be omitted when wref is a durable id — a durable id routes itself to the repo that owns the target. When wref is a local wref (e.g. Shape/name with no wh:org/repo/ prefix), orgName and repoName are required; a repo-less call with a local wref is rejected.
| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | no | Organization name. Required when wref is a local wref (no wh:org/repo/ prefix); may be omitted when wref is a durable id. |
repoName | string | no | Repository name. Required when wref is a local wref (no wh:org/repo/ prefix); may be omitted when wref is a durable id. |
wref | string | yes | Target wref. Accepts a shaped-thing wref (Shape/name) or a bare shape wref (Shape). |
shape | string | no | Filter assertions by shape |
match | string | no | Glob pattern to filter assertion wrefs |
where | object[] | no | Typed field-value predicates ({ fieldPath, op, rhs }), ANDed, max 8. See Field-Value Predicates. |
resolveCollections | boolean | no | When true, includes assertions about Arc/Bond/Set/List collections containing the target entity. For identity-scoped inputs (bare wrefs, @HEAD, or @ALL), collection members are expanded. Pinned @vN inputs stay version-exact and do not expand collection members — the flag is accepted but has no expansion effect on pinned targets. |
role | string | no | Filter by the role the target plays within a collection. Accepted only when resolveCollections:true is set; rejected otherwise. |
includeRetracted | boolean | no | Resolve a retracted target and include retracted assertions in the returned results, including within the single children layer when depth is also set. |
depth | integer | no | When set, returns one level of child assertions for each top-level result. Values greater than 1 do not produce additional nesting — only one children layer is returned regardless of the value supplied. Each child entry has an empty children array. |
limit | integer | no | Max assertions to return |
cursor | string | no | Pagination cursor from previous response |
warmhub_thing_query
Section titled “warmhub_thing_query”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
shape | string | no | Filter by shape |
about | string | no | Filter by about target |
affirmedAbout | string | no | Pinned target wref (Shape/name@vN) that returns only active assertions whose current version was recorded as affirming that exact pinned version of their about target. Use this filter when you need assertions that were explicitly evaluated against a specific version of a target — for example, to find all assertions that affirmed Device/sensor-42@v7. At least one affirmedTargets entry on the assertion must match the supplied pinned wref exactly. See warmhub_commit_submit for how affirmedTargets are set and updated. May be combined with match, count, scoped tokens, and search. |
kind | string | no | Filter by kind. One of shape, thing, assertion, or collection. |
match | string | no | Glob pattern to filter wrefs |
where | object[] | no | Typed field-value predicates ({ fieldPath, op, rhs }), ANDed, max 8. See Field-Value Predicates. |
count | boolean | no | Return count of matching items instead of the full result list |
resolveCollections | boolean | no | When about is set, also include assertions about collections containing the target |
includeRetracted | boolean | no | Include retracted entities |
componentRef | string | no | Filter results to items owned by the given component (its Org/Name ref) |
excludeComponents | boolean | no | Exclude component-owned items from results. Accepted alongside componentRef, but the two are mutually exclusive filters, so passing both returns no items. |
excludeInfraShapes | boolean | no | Hide internal infra shapes from results |
limit | integer | no | Max results. Must be between 1 and 500. |
cursor | string | no | Pagination cursor from previous response |
sinceRepoSeq | integer | no | Return only items that changed after this repo sequence number. Pass -1 to start from the beginning. Reuse the same lower bound across all pages of a single incremental read; only persist the repoSeq returned on the exhausted final page or on an exact count result — intermediate pages do not carry repoSeq. Requires full-repository read authority. Not available when using glob filters (match), collection expansion (resolveCollections), or queries against foreign sources — those query shapes cannot guarantee incremental results. |
When an incremental read is complete (final page exhausted, or count: true result), the response carries a top-level repoSeq field. Use that value as sinceRepoSeq on the next poll to receive only subsequent changes.
warmhub_thing_search
Section titled “warmhub_thing_search”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
query | string | yes | Search query text |
shape | string | no | Filter by shape name |
kind | string | no | Filter by kind. One of shape, thing, assertion, or collection. |
about | string | no | Filter by about target (not supported with vector mode) |
affirmedAbout | string | no | Pinned target wref (Shape/name@vN) that returns only active assertions whose current version was recorded as affirming that exact pinned version of their about target. Same semantics as the warmhub_thing_query filter. |
match | string | no | Glob pattern to filter wrefs |
resolveCollections | boolean | no | When about is set, also include assertions about collections containing the target (text mode only) |
mode | string | no | "text" (default), "vector", or "hybrid" |
includeRetracted | boolean | no | Include retracted entities |
componentRef | string | no | Filter results to items owned by the given component (its Org/Name ref) |
excludeComponents | boolean | no | Exclude component-owned items from results. Accepted alongside componentRef, but the two are mutually exclusive filters, so passing both returns no items. |
excludeInfraShapes | boolean | no | Hide internal infra shapes from results |
limit | integer | no | Max results. Must be between 1 and 500. |
cursor | string | no | Pagination cursor from previous response (text mode only — vector and hybrid reject cursor). When about or resolveCollections is set, pages may be sparse — paginate until nextCursor is absent. |
warmhub_thing_refs
Section titled “warmhub_thing_refs”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
wref | string | yes | WarmHub reference |
direction | string | no | "inbound" (default) or "outbound" |
fieldPath | string | no | Filter by field path (inbound only) |
limit | integer | no | Max results. Must be between 1 and 500. |
cursor | string | no | Pagination cursor from previous response |
Direction "inbound" returns things that reference the target wref. Direction "outbound" returns things the target wref references.
Use inbound refs as a broad discovery tool when you are unsure whether data points directly at a thing or at a collection containing it. Inbound refs are not a substitute for warmhub_thing_about when you need assertion-only results or assertion filters.
warmhub_wref_resolve
Section titled “warmhub_wref_resolve”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
wref | string | yes | WarmHub reference to resolve |
Cross-repo visibility
Section titled “Cross-repo visibility”Cross-repo wref lookups (canonical forms wh:org/repo/Shape and wh:org/repo/Shape/name) require effective repo:read permission on the target repo. Public repos are readable by anyone. For private repos, callers without that access see an error — except warmhub_thing_search with a cross-repo about (returns { items: [] }) and warmhub_thing_get_many (puts unreadable wrefs into missing[]) — both to keep batch and search streaming-friendly.
See Getting Access for the precise rules.
Write Tools
Section titled “Write Tools”| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
warmhub_commit_submit | Submit a list of operations against a repo. Returns a write receipt: whether the write landed, plus one outcome entry per submitted operation. |
warmhub_commit_validate | Evaluate one bounded operation batch with the real commit evaluator without persisting repository state or consuming a receipt. |
warmhub_commit_receipt_get | Look up one immutable operation-event receipt by any caller-known eventRequestId in the repo. Most often used to resolve an ambiguous write, but not limited to that. |
Use warmhub_thing_history for per-thing version trails.
warmhub_commit_submit
Section titled “warmhub_commit_submit”The tool’s input schema contains the full structural contract for all operation variants. Supply a caller-known submissionId; the call returns a write receipt, and the receipt’s own fields are the top level of the response — there is no wrapper object to unpack. The response root also carries a few compatibility fields, including a nested copy of the same receipt; read the receipt fields directly. Opinion-bearing assertions must be binary propositions.
Ambiguous append failures are separate from per-operation failures and return a tool-result error. An ambiguous append failure may have landed server-side. The error names eventRequestId and warmhub_commit_receipt_get; call that tool before retrying, rather than submitting another write or inferring the outcome from repository state. See MCP Error Handling for the full failure taxonomy.
| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
committer | string | no | Optional untyped wref identifying the actor on whose behalf the writes are made. It must identify an existing thing. Omit it to use the authenticated caller’s normal attribution. |
componentRef | string | no | Attribute writes to an installed component, identified by its Org/Name ref. See component identity rules below. |
message | string | no | Optional message recorded with each thing-version produced by this call |
submissionId | UUID | yes | Caller-known logical submission identity. Reuse only for an identical retry. |
operations | array | yes | Non-empty atomic operation batch. After an ambiguous append failure, use the named receipt lookup before retrying. |
streamId | string | no | Caller-managed stream identity for observability and diagnostic correlation; it does not provide recovery or idempotency. |
Response shape:
A submission returns an operation-event-receipt/v2 receipt. These are its fields, at the top level of the response:
| Response Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
event | object | null | Header for the persisted event: committedAt, eventDigest, operationCount, repo.orgName / repo.repoName, and repoSeq (a decimal string). null when outcome is "no_event". |
eventRequestId | UUID | Receipt identity for this submission. Pass it to warmhub_commit_receipt_get to resolve an ambiguous write. |
operations | array | One outcome entry per submitted operation — see below. |
outcome | string | "event" when the submission persisted an operation event, "no_event" when it persisted nothing. This is the submission-level result, not a per-operation status. |
requestDigest | string | sha256:-prefixed digest of the submitted request. |
schemaVersion | string | "operation-event-receipt/v2". |
submissionId | UUID | The submissionId you supplied, echoed back. |
Every entry in operations[] carries opIndex, name, operation, and status; warnings and resolvedName may appear on any entry. The rest of the entry depends on status:
"applied"or"noop"— may also carryversionanddataHash."error"— carries a non-emptyerrors[]array describing the per-operation failure, and noversionordataHash.
A "noop" entry is a successful outcome: the operation was valid and changed nothing.
The response root also carries these fields. Prefer the receipt fields above:
| Compatibility Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
results | array | The same per-operation entries as operations[]. |
receipt | object | A nested copy of the receipt above. |
allocatedTokenRanges | array | Always []. |
createdByEmail | string | Email of the authenticated writer, when available. |
Component identity rules:
- User tokens may claim components installed by that user.
- Callers with
org:configurefor the org may claim any installed component in the org. - Action tokens derive the component from the running subscription and reject mismatched explicit values.
Operation variants:
- ADD shape:
{ operation: "add", kind: "shape", name, data, skipExisting? } - ADD thing:
{ operation: "add", kind: "thing", name, data, skipExisting? } - ADD assertion:
{ operation: "add", kind: "assertion", name, about, data, affirmedTargets?, skipExisting? } - ADD collection:
{ operation: "add", kind: "collection", type, name, members, skipExisting? } - REVISE shape/thing/assertion:
{ operation: "revise", kind, name, data, expectedVersion?, leaseId? }— for assertions, also acceptsaffirmedTargets? - REVISE collection:
{ operation: "revise", kind: "collection", type, name, members, expectedVersion?, leaseId? } - RETRACT:
{ operation: "retract", name, reason?, kind?, expectedVersion?, leaseId? }— withdraws the entity from default reads - RENAME:
{ operation: "rename", name, newName, kind? }— changes identity metadata without creating a new body version - REAFFIRM assertion:
{ operation: "reaffirm", name, add?, remove?, leaseId?, expectedVersion? }— mints a new assertion version that keeps the existing assertion content unchanged while updating which pinned target versions it affirms, via theadd?andremove?delta fields. At least one ofaddorremovemust be present; a reaffirm with neither is rejected.kindis optional.
Write path rejects @ALL. Create things with explicit names; dependent assertions and collections should reference those names directly.
affirmedTargets on assertion add and revise is an array of pinned target wrefs (Shape/name@vN) that records which specific versions of the about-target the assertion was evaluated against. The reaffirm operation updates the affirmed targets via add? and remove? delta fields while keeping the assertion content the same.
On revise, affirmedTargets is the complete new set, not a delta — and omitting it clears the assertion’s affirmations rather than carrying them forward. This is deliberate: a revise changes the claim, and affirmations recorded against the old claim do not transfer to the new one. If a revise should keep its existing affirmations, restate them in affirmedTargets on that same operation. Use reaffirm when the affirmation set should change but the claim should not.
Per-operation result warnings:
Successful and noop result entries can include:
{ "warnings": { "undeclaredFields": ["status", "filePath"], "undeclaredFieldsTruncated": true, "totalUndeclared": 600, "coalescedWrefs": [ { "fieldPath": "owner", "wref": "User/nobody", "reason": "thing_absent" } ] }}warnings.undeclaredFields lists top-level keys present in the submitted data but not declared in the target shape. When the list is capped, undeclaredFieldsTruncated: true is set and totalUndeclared reports the full count. warnings.coalescedWrefs lists optional wref fields whose resolver outcome was thing_absent and was coalesced to null — each entry carries fieldPath, wref, and reason; missing shapes and every other failure remain hard errors. When capped, coalescedWrefsTruncated: true is set with totalCoalescedWrefs. The struct is additive — an operation can carry either warning kind or both. Both warnings are informational; they do not turn the operation into a failure. See Optional Wref Fields.
For add operations, skipExisting: true returns noop when the target already exists instead of failing. For revise and retract operations, expectedVersion applies the write only if the target is still at that version, otherwise it rejects with CONFLICT. A revise whose data matches the current version returns noop instead of creating a new version. See Conditional Operations for the full model.
Unauthorized component claims reject with FORBIDDEN.
warmhub_commit_validate
Section titled “warmhub_commit_validate”Evaluates the complete ordered operation batch with the same server evaluator as
warmhub_commit_submit, but creates no repository state or receipt and dispatches
no asynchronous action. The tool requires write authority even though its MCP
contract is read-only and non-destructive.
| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | yes (global) | Organization name |
repoName | string | yes (global) | Repository name |
operations | array | yes | One complete ordered batch, at most 10,000 operations. |
message | string | no | Message projected with the preview; not persisted. |
committer | string | no | Optional untyped committer wref, evaluated under the same rules as submit. |
componentRef | string | no | Optional installed component attribution. |
skipExisting | boolean | no | Apply skipExisting to add operations only. |
includeWouldBeBody | boolean | no | Include projected resulting bodies when disclosure rules permit. |
The response contains one ordered top-level result per input, optional nested
effects, aggregate counts, canCommit, persistence caveats, and an
authorization-safe baseline. Statuses are would_apply, noop, or error;
failed one-to-many lowering marks valid sibling effects discarded.
MCP’s shared route limit is 1 MiB, smaller than the 4 MiB SDK/CLI validation
limit. The tool has no submissionId, streamId, chunking, or receipt arguments.
Use the CLI or an SDK for larger previews. A preview is a snapshot, so concurrent
repository changes or real-write admission can still make a later submit fail.
warmhub_commit_receipt_get
Section titled “warmhub_commit_receipt_get”Looks up one immutable write receipt by a caller-known eventRequestId. Any exact write that carries an eventRequestId produces a receipt this tool can read — warmhub_repo_content_set, warmhub_collection_create, and warmhub_collection_revise as well as warmhub_commit_submit — so it is not limited to one tool or one failure mode.
The common use is resolving an ambiguous write: call it after an ambiguous append failure, before retrying, to determine whether the submission landed server-side.
When warmhub_commit_submit returns an ambiguous append failure, the error includes an eventRequestId. Pass that error-provided value here. Do not pass your original submissionId — the two values differ.
| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | yes (global) | Organization name |
repoName | string | yes (global) | Repository name |
eventRequestId | UUID | yes | The id of the write whose receipt you want. After an ambiguous warmhub_commit_submit this is the eventRequestId the error carries — not the submissionId you supplied, which is a different value. For the other write tools it is the eventRequestId you passed in. |
The tool rejects any argument outside this set, so do not pass submissionId alongside them.
Returns the same immutable write receipt documented under warmhub_commit_submit when a matching write exists — the receipt on its own, without the compatibility keys that tool adds alongside it. Missing receipts and receipts the caller is not authorized to read are intentionally indistinguishable — both return a not-found result rather than a distinct authorization error, so that the existence of a write cannot be inferred from the error shape.
Shape Tools
Section titled “Shape Tools”| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
warmhub_shape_list | List shapes in a repository. Each item includes per-shape queryHints. |
warmhub_shape_get | Get a shape by name. Response includes queryHints. |
warmhub_shape_template | Generate write-operation templates for one or more shapes. Read-only; commit category. See Generating Templates. |
warmhub_shape_list
Section titled “warmhub_shape_list”Lists shapes in the repo. orgName and repoName are required.
| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | yes | Organization name. |
repoName | string | yes | Repository name. |
match | string | no | Glob pattern to filter shape names by bare name (e.g. Sensor*), not by full wref. |
componentRef | string | no | Return only shapes owned by this component, identified by its Org/Name ref (e.g. warmhub/veritas). Mutually exclusive with excludeComponents. |
excludeComponents | boolean | no | Exclude all component-owned shapes from results. Mutually exclusive with componentRef — passing both returns no shapes. |
Each item in the response includes a queryHints block (queryableFields, wrefFields, suggestedPatterns) to help you choose the right warmhub_thing_query, warmhub_thing_search, or warmhub_thing_refs pattern for that shape.
warmhub_shape_get
Section titled “warmhub_shape_get”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
shapeName | string | yes | Shape name |
Both warmhub_shape_get and warmhub_shape_list include a queryHints block (queryableFields, wrefFields, suggestedPatterns) to help agents choose warmhub_thing_query, warmhub_thing_search, and warmhub_thing_refs patterns for each shape.
warmhub_shape_template
Section titled “warmhub_shape_template”Generates write-operation templates for one or more shapes in the repo. Read-only tool in the commit category. For conceptual background see Generating Templates.
| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
shapeNames | string | yes | Comma-separated shape names to generate templates for |
kind | string | no | Filter templates to a specific kind. One of thing or assertion. |
operation | string | no | Filter to a specific operation type. One of add, revise, or retract. |
about | string | no | Populate the about field in generated assertion templates with this wref |
count | integer | no | Number of example templates to generate per shape |
Collection Tools
Section titled “Collection Tools”First-class tools for working with named collections in a repo.
Shape support at a glance:
| Shape family | Writable (create, revise) | Readable (members, contains, diff, stats) |
|---|---|---|
| Arc | ✓ | ✓ |
| Bond | ✓ | ✓ |
| Set | ✓ | ✓ |
| List | ✓ | ✓ |
| Pair | ✓ (deprecated — accepted with a deprecation warning) | ✓ |
| Triple | — | ✓ (legacy, read-only) |
Use create to make a collection and revise to change its membership; members, stats, and contains to read one; and diff to compare two collections or two versions of the same collection.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
warmhub_collection_create | Create a new named collection in the repo. Requires repo:write. |
warmhub_collection_members | List the current members of a named collection. |
warmhub_collection_contains | Check whether a named collection contains one or more given wrefs. |
warmhub_collection_diff | Compute the diff between two versions of a named collection. |
warmhub_collection_revise | Revise the membership of an existing named collection. Requires repo:write. |
warmhub_collection_stats | Return summary statistics for a named collection (type, wref, version, memberCount, and uniqueMemberCount). |
Selector-backed collection rules
Section titled “Selector-backed collection rules”warmhub_collection_create and warmhub_collection_revise both accept selector fields — shape, about, match, kind, excludeComponents, componentRef, where, sourceOrgName, sourceRepoName — which populate membership from a live query instead of an explicit member list. These rules apply to both:
- Set-only. Any selector field requires the collection to be a
set; every other type is rejected, including the deprecatedpair, whether the selector reads this repo or a foreign one. - Needs an anchor. At least one of
shape,about,match,componentRef, orwhereis required when any selector field is used.kindandexcludeComponentsonly narrow an already-anchored selector. - Foreign source repos.
sourceOrgNameandsourceRepoNamemust be paired with each other and require an anchor selector. They cannot be combined with any explicit member argument — use canonicalwh:org/repo/...member wrefs instead, or omit the source repo. - Otherwise selectors and
memberscompose on create: the result set is seeded frommembersfirst, then selector query matches are added. A foreign source repo is the exception, per the rule above — and on revise,add/removeare a further exception, below.
Each tool then adds one rule of its own, below.
warmhub_collection_create
Section titled “warmhub_collection_create”Selector fields follow the shared rules above, where create’s explicit member arguments are members, add, remove, and replaceMembers. Create has one rule of its own:
add,remove, andreplaceMembersrequirefrom. They adjust a collection copied byfrom, so without it the call is rejected.fromis in turn exclusive withmembers, with selector fields, and withsourceOrgName/sourceRepoName— so a create either copies an existing collection and adjusts it, or builds a fresh set frommembersand/or a selector, never both.add/removeonly work on aset. Delta updates are rejected forarc,bond,list, and the deprecatedpair— copying one of those and changing its membership means passing the full list viareplaceMembers, which is the non-setescape hatch and is not a delta.

add | string[] | no | Wrefs to add to the copied member set. Requires from. |
remove | string[] | no | Wrefs to remove from the copied member set. Requires from. |
replaceMembers | string[] | no | Replace the copied member list with these wrefs. Requires from. |
shape | string | no | Selector: filter by shape. Acts as an anchor selector. |

match | string | no | Selector: glob pattern to filter wrefs. Acts as an anchor selector. |
kind | string | no | Selector: filter by kind. One of shape, thing, assertion, or collection. Requires at least one anchor selector to be present. |
excludeComponents | boolean | no | Selector: exclude component-owned items from the selector result. Requires at least one anchor selector to be present. |

committer | string | no | Wref identifying the actor on whose behalf the write is made |
skipExisting | boolean | no | Return noop instead of failing when the collection already exists |
warmhub_collection_members
Section titled “warmhub_collection_members”orgName and repoName may be omitted when wref is a self-routing durable ID — the durable ID routes itself to the repo that owns the collection. cursor must be paired with limit.
| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|

repoName | string | no | Repository name. Required unless wref is a durable ID. |
wref | string | yes | Collection wref |
version | integer | no | Pin the lookup to a specific collection version |

warmhub_collection_revise
Section titled “warmhub_collection_revise”Selector fields follow the shared rules above, where revise’s explicit member arguments are members, add, and remove. Revise takes no from, and has one rule of its own:
add/removeare exclusive with replacement membership. Passing either alongsidemembersor any selector field is rejected. So a revise is either a delta —addand/orremoveagainst current membership — or a replacement built frommembersand/or a selector, never both.- Deltas only work on a
set.add/removeare rejected forarc,bond,list, and the deprecatedpair; revise those by passing the fullmemberslist.

Subscription Tools
Section titled “Subscription Tools”See Subscriptions for concepts and Creating Subscriptions for setup guides with filter and credential examples. Those guides cover repo-scoped subscriptions; for org-scoped subscriptions, see the Org-Scoped Subscription Tools section below.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
warmhub_subscription_list | List non-retired subscriptions in a repository. Retired subscriptions remain readable by name via warmhub_subscription_get but do not appear in list results — see Managing Subscriptions for what retirement means and when it happens. |
warmhub_subscription_get | Get subscription metadata by name. |
warmhub_subscription_create | Create a webhook subscription in a repository. |
warmhub_subscription_update | Update an existing subscription’s trigger or webhook config. |
warmhub_subscription_pause | Pause an active subscription. |
warmhub_subscription_resume | Resume a paused subscription. |
warmhub_subscription_delete | Delete a subscription. |
warmhub_org_subscription_create | Create an org-scoped metadata webhook subscription. |
warmhub_org_subscription_list / get / update / pause / resume / delete | Manage org-scoped subscriptions. |
warmhub_subscription_get
Section titled “warmhub_subscription_get”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
name | string | yes | Subscription name |
warmhub_subscription_create
Section titled “warmhub_subscription_create”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
name | string | yes | Subscription name |
kind | string | yes | "webhook" or "cron". "webhook" is the supported value for new subscriptions; "cron" is accepted by the schema only so older callers receive a deterministic rejection. |
eventType | string | no | Event type to subscribe to. One of commit, repo.renamed, thing.renamed, or shape.renamed. Defaults to commit when omitted. |
shapeName | string | no | Shape to subscribe to. For commit subscriptions, provide either shapeName or filterJson.shape — except for shape lifecycle subscriptions, which omit both and rely on a {"kind":"shape", ...} filter. Not applicable for repo.renamed, thing.renamed, or shape.renamed subscriptions. |
filterJson | object | no | Recursive subfilter/v1 commit-operation filter with operation, kind, shape, name, match, all, any, and not. Required for commit; rejected for metadata rename events. |
webhookUrl | string | yes | Webhook endpoint URL |
fallbackWebhookUrl | string | no | Optional fallback endpoint called after a terminal delivery failure |
allowTraceReentry | boolean | no | Reentry policy for write-triggered subscriptions. Defaults to false |
sourceRepoRef | string | no | Source repo (org/repo) for a cross-repo subscription. Must be in the same org as the home repo |
notifyOnSuccess | boolean | no | Deprecated compatibility field; accepted but ignored. Action notifications are terminal-failure-only |
For a commit subscription, omitted eventType defaults to commit, so this is a complete filter example:
{ "orgName": "acme", "repoName": "signals", "name": "new-signals", "kind": "webhook", "shapeName": "Signal", "filterJson": { "all": [ { "operation": "add" }, { "kind": "thing" } ] }, "webhookUrl": "https://hooks.example.com/warmhub"}When both shapeName and filterJson.shape are present, they must identify the same shape. A structurally shape-only filter such as {"kind":"shape"} is the only commit form that needs neither binding. Metadata rename events reject shapeName, filterJson, and sourceRepoRef.
warmhub_org_subscription_create
Section titled “warmhub_org_subscription_create”This tool creates organization-owned automation. The caller must be
an organization owner or admin. It accepts no repoName, shape, filter, or
source repository.
| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | yes | Organization name |
name | string | yes | Subscription name |
eventType | string | no | org.renamed, org.member_added, org.repo_created, or org.repo_published; defaults to org.renamed |
kind | string | yes | "webhook" |
webhookUrl | string | yes | Webhook endpoint URL |
fallbackWebhookUrl | string | no | Optional fallback endpoint |
allowTraceReentry | boolean | no | Allow another delivery in the same action trace |
notifyOnSuccess | boolean | no | Deprecated compatibility field; accepted but ignored. Action notifications are terminal-failure-only |
warmhub_subscription_update
Section titled “warmhub_subscription_update”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
name | string | yes | Existing subscription name |
shapeName | string | no | Replacement commit-subscription shape. Rejected for metadata-event and cross-repo subscriptions. |
filterJson | object | no | Replacement recursive subfilter/v1 filter. Rejected for metadata-event and cross-repo subscriptions. |
webhookUrl | string | no | Replacement webhook URL |
fallbackWebhookUrl | string or null | no | Replacement fallback webhook URL. Use null to clear it |
allowTraceReentry | boolean | no | Replacement reentry policy for write-triggered subscriptions |
notifyOnSuccess | boolean | no | Deprecated compatibility field; accepted but ignored. Action notifications are terminal-failure-only |
Updates patch only the fields supplied; omitted fields retain their current values. name, kind, and eventType cannot be changed. For commit subscriptions, the merged shapeName and filterJson.shape constraints must still agree and retain a valid shape binding (or a structurally shape-only filter).
warmhub_subscription_pause / warmhub_subscription_resume / warmhub_subscription_delete
Section titled “warmhub_subscription_pause / warmhub_subscription_resume / warmhub_subscription_delete”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
name | string | yes | Subscription name |
Org-Scoped Subscription Tools
Section titled “Org-Scoped Subscription Tools”Org-scoped subscription tools manage subscriptions at the organization level. The current org-scoped subscription type is fixed to the org.renamed event — these subscriptions fire when the organization is renamed. There is no event selector or filter to configure; the event type is hardcoded. These tools follow the same pause/resume/delete lifecycle as repo-scoped subscription tools.
| Tool | Description |

warmhub_org_subscription_create | Create a webhook subscription at the organization level. Fires on org.renamed events. |
warmhub_org_subscription_list | List org-scoped subscriptions. |
warmhub_org_subscription_get | Get org-scoped subscription metadata by name. |
warmhub_org_subscription_pause | Pause an active org-scoped subscription. |
warmhub_org_subscription_resume | Resume a paused org-scoped subscription. |
warmhub_org_subscription_delete | Delete an org-scoped subscription. |
warmhub_org_subscription_update | Update an existing org-scoped subscription’s webhook delivery config. |
warmhub_org_subscription_create
Section titled “warmhub_org_subscription_create”Creates a webhook subscription that fires when the organization is renamed (org.renamed). The event type is fixed and cannot be changed.

|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | yes | Organization name |
name | string | yes | Subscription name |
kind | string | yes | "webhook" |
webhookUrl | string | yes | Webhook endpoint URL |
fallbackWebhookUrl | string | no | Optional fallback endpoint called after a terminal delivery failure |
allowTraceReentry | boolean | no | Reentry policy. Defaults to false |
notifyOnSuccess | boolean | no | Deprecated compatibility field; accepted but ignored. Action notifications are terminal-failure-only |
componentRef | string | no | Attribute this subscription to an installed component, identified by its Org/Name ref (e.g. warmhub/veritas). See Component Tools for the component ref format. |

cursor | string | no | Pagination cursor from previous response. Must be paired with an explicit limit — supplying cursor alone is rejected with "cursor" requires "limit" |
Each item in the response includes delivery fields plus optional run diagnostics:
| Response Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
deliveryId | string | Required identifier for this delivery. Use this value when waiting on lease-based deliveries. |
runId | string? | Identifier for the action run associated with this delivery. May be absent when the delivery has not yet been associated with a run. |

runId | string | no | Return the single run with this identifier. Can be combined with subscriptionName, status, outcome, since, and cursor. |
subscriptionName | string | no | Filter runs to those triggered by this subscription. |
status | string | no | Filter by status: pending, running, processing, retry_wait, suppressed, succeeded, failed_terminal, dead_letter |
outcome | string | no | Filter by terminal outcome. Accepted values: succeeded or failed. failed matches runs in a terminal failure state (failed_terminal or dead_letter); it does not match every non-success state. Cannot be combined with status. |
since | string | no | ISO datetime or unix timestamp. Cannot be combined with cursor. |
limit | integer | no | Max results. Must be between 1 and 200. |

runId | string | yes | Action run identifier (UUIDv7) for the target run. |
warmhub_action_notifications
Section titled “warmhub_action_notifications”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
since | string | no | ISO datetime or unix timestamp |
limit | integer | no | Max results (1–200) |
Returns terminal action-failure notifications for the repo. Only runs that have reached a non-recoverable failure state produce records in this feed — succeeded and suppressed runs do not appear.

warmhub_notifications
Section titled “warmhub_notifications”| Param | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
orgName | string | yes (global) | Organization name |
repoName | string | yes (global) | Repository name |
since | string | no | ISO datetime or unix timestamp |
limit | integer | no | Max results (1–200) |
Aliases warmhub_action_notifications over the same backend. Returns terminal action-failure notifications for the repo — only runs that have reached a non-recoverable failure state produce records in this feed.

Component Tools
Section titled “Component Tools”| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
warmhub_component_install | Install a registered component (<org>/<name>) into the repo: applies its manifest (shapes, credential sets, subscriptions, seeds) and runs the optional setup handshake. Returns the install state plus any setup-deferred resources. Requires repo:write. Components whose manifests declare credentials or subscriptions require additional permissions — see the note below. |
warmhub_component_uninstall | Uninstall a registered component (the wh component teardown operation): pauses its subscriptions, revokes its tokens, dispatches the optional uninstall callback, and marks the install record uninstalled. Frees the shape names the component claimed so a reinstall can reclaim them, while leaving the existing shapes and any seeded data in place. Non-destructive — reinstall revives the install. Requires repo:write. |
