Server tool list (5)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| get-actor-run | Get detailed information about a specific Actor run. Returns run result: status, storages (datasets/keyValueStores alias map), stats, summary, nextStep. - summary describes the past (e.g. "SUCCEEDED in 22s. 47 items; 3 fields available."). - nextStep prescribes one primary follow-up action with identifiers interpolated (e.g. "Use get-dataset-items with datasetId=..."). - waitSecs (0–45, default 30) waits up to that many seconds for terminal status before returning. USAGE: - Use to check the status of a run started by any Actor-running tool. - Pass waitSecs > 0 to block until terminal (or until the cap elapses). USAGE EXAMPLES: - user_input: Show details of run y2h7sK3Wc - user_input: Wait for run y2h7sK3Wc to finish |
| get-dataset-items | Get items (rows) from a dataset — the output/results produced by an Actor run. Returns the rows themselves, not dataset metadata, counts, or a schema. When the user provides a datasetId and asks to retrieve results, output, data, or rows, call this tool directly. Default limit is 20. Use clean=true to skip empty items and hidden fields. USAGE: - Use when you need to read data from a dataset (all items or only selected fields). USAGE EXAMPLES: - user_input: Retrieve results from dataset abc123 - user_input: Get only metadata.url and title from dataset username~my-dataset |
| get-key-value-store-record | Get the value stored under a specific key in a key-value store — a single record, not a listing of all keys. Requires the exact key name. The response preserves the original Content-Encoding; most clients handle decompression automatically. USAGE: - Use when you need to retrieve a specific record (JSON, text, or binary) from a store. USAGE EXAMPLES: - user_input: Get record INPUT from store abc123 - user_input: Get record data.json from store username~my-store |
| abort-actor-run | Abort an Actor run that is currently starting or running. For runs with status SUCCEEDED, FAILED, ABORTING, ABORTED, or TIMED-OUT, this call has no effect. The results will include the updated run details after the abort request. USAGE: - Use when you need to stop a run that is taking too long or misconfigured. USAGE EXAMPLES: - user_input: Abort run y2h7sK3Wc - user_input: Gracefully abort run y2h7sK3Wc |
