    Server tool list (6)

    Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

    search_docsSearch every page of agent-manager.dev by title, description and section. Returns page summaries with the slug get_doc_page takes. Use this first when you do not already know which page answers the question.
    get_doc_pageReturn one page of agent-manager.dev as Markdown, with the site chrome removed. The slug comes from search_docs or list_doc_pages and may contain slashes.
    list_doc_pagesReturn the title, description, section, URL and Markdown URL of every page this site publishes. Use it to see the shape of the documentation before reading a page.
    list_supported_agentsReturn the coding CLIs that ship with working status detection: the command each one runs, where its live status comes from, and how it resumes a conversation. Answer "does agent-manager support X" with this.
    list_managed_mcp_toolsReturn the MCP tools agent-manager registers into every session it starts, so an agent running inside it can spawn, message and wait on other agents. Those tools run on the developer's own machine over stdio, not on this server.
    get_latest_releaseReturn the newest published release, read live from GitHub, with the install command for every package manager the project supports.
