Server tool list (38)

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

search_certifications	Which certification is this prose name? Start here for any plain question — a trade, field, job, skill, or company in everyday words. Returns candidates with ids, issuers, and source basis — candidates rather than a single guess when the name is ambiguous; the ids feed the other certification tools.
get_certification	Everything held about one certification: issuer and issuer domain, occupations served, exam and renewal requirements, education-or-experience routes, Credential Engine registry identity where held, and the basis and source URL for the claim.
certifications_for_occupation	What certifications serve this occupation? SOC-keyed lookup (dashed SOC accepted with or without the O*NET .00 suffix).
occupations_for_certification	What occupations does this certification serve?
related_certifications	What else serves the same occupation? Traverses on SOC only — a certification sharing solely an instructional program (CIP) is not related (contract § 4).
certifications_for_program	Broad academic cross-reference by instructional program (CIP). A deliberately broader, lower-precision question than an occupation lookup — never its peer (contract § 4).
list_issuers	The issuing organizations, optionally filtered by a name query.
resolve_term	Where does a word place in the KSA model? The KSA Dictionary is the shared vocabulary that defines the terms a learner uses to assert what they know, do, and are — and the terms a learning offering uses to express what it comprises — so both sides resolve to the same identifiers, never spelling matches. Answers from three linked layers (governed lexicon, O*NET content model, WordNet-derived index), each placement attributed to its layer with provenance; the WordNet placement carries the word's definition (gloss) and synonyms.
expand_term	What is this word, upward? Walks the WordNet is-a (hypernym) chain meaning to parent meaning, from the word's KSA-mapped sense toward its broader categories, so every step stays in the sense it started in. Each step carries its definition (gloss) and synonyms.
crosswalk_code	What does this code cross to? Auto-detects the family — dotted CIP (52.0201) or dashed SOC (11-1021, O*NET .00 suffix accepted) — and answers the other family's codes and titles from the federal CIP-SOC crosswalk.
compare_program_checklists	Compare what a program takes at several institutions: for each IPEDS UNITID, that institution's published checklist for the program (requirement groups, items, published credit strings — the work effort) beside its published tuition and fee policy (the cost). Schedule is stated not held. Nothing is summed or computed by the service; an institution, checklist, or cost the catalogs do not hold is stated as such.
find_institution	Which institution is this? A name fragment or an IPEDS UNITID answers with the institution's identity, sector, identifiers with their sources, and how many programs, checklists, and learning units its published catalog holds here. A state lists that state's institutions by name; with no name and no state, the answer is the states that hold institutions, each with its count.
programs_for_institution	What programs does this institution publish? Award, credential class, CIP, the published credit figure verbatim, catalog edition, the captured page each came from, and the checklist ids to pass to get_checklist.
get_checklist	What does this award require? One checklist: its requirement groups (every header and full item count), each group's items with published credit strings, alternatives, and — where an item resolved to a course — that course's own code, title, and published credits, attributed to the course. Items come in pages across the groups; the answer states items_total and next_item_offset. Every row names the captured page it came from.
learning_units	What courses does this institution publish? Filter by subject abbreviation, course code (spaces and case ignored), or title words; each course carries its published credit string verbatim (ranges stay ranges), edition, and the captured page.
get_institution	Everything held about one institution: its identity row, identifiers, addresses, websites, accreditations, relationships, identity history, published costs and calendar dates, each table under its own name, with counts of its programs, courses, checklists, catalogs, policies and agreements and the service that lists each. Contacts name people and are not served.
find_catalogs	Which published catalog editions are held for this institution? Each catalog's edition year, format and source. Answers none held when the build holds none.
get_catalog	One catalog edition: its row, the institutions that use it (and whom it is shared from), and how many programs it holds.
find_programs	Which programs match these words, across institutions? Program or award words (optionally one institution's UNITID) answer with each program's award, CIP, published credit figure verbatim, edition, source page and institution.
get_program	One program whole: its row, identifiers, offerings (campus resolved), its institution, and the checklists that lead to its award — pass one to get_checklist.
get_learning_unit	One course whole: its row, prerequisites and corequisites, aliases, terms offered, articulation statements and comparable members — each linked course resolved or stated unresolved, never guessed — plus the transfer frameworks it maps to.
find_policies	Which academic policies does this institution publish (transfer credit, prior learning, tuition and fees …)? Optional words narrow them. Answers none held when the build holds none.
get_policy	One published academic policy: its section, verbatim text, page, edition and source.
find_checklists	Which checklists — the generic itinerary of requirements for an award — does this institution publish? Optional award words or a program id narrow them; pass one to get_checklist.
find_agreements	Which articulation or transfer agreements are held? Optional title words, or an institution's UNITID as a party. Answers none held when the build holds none.
get_agreement	One agreement: its row, its parties (organizations resolved), and the pathways, comparability bundles and checklists that cite it. Signatories name people and are not served.
find_pathways	Which pathways are held? Optional title words, an agreement id, or a checklist id. Answers none held when the build holds none.
get_pathway	One pathway: its row and the checklist and agreement it links. Contacts name people and are not served.
find_comparability	Which comparability bundles (published transfer rules) are held? Optional receiving institution UNITID, agreement id, or a learning unit that appears as a source or substitute. Answers none held when the build holds none.
get_comparability	One comparability bundle: its row (credits awarded published beside any parse), the receiving institution, and its source and substitute courses, each resolved or stated unresolved.
find_transfer_frameworks	Which statewide or compact transfer frameworks are held? Optional name or jurisdiction words. Answers none held when the build holds none.
get_transfer_framework	One transfer framework: its row, authority, codes with their meanings, and the courses mapped to it (resolved).
checklists_requiring_learning_unit	Which checklists require this course? Each requirement item that resolved to it, with its checklist id, award and group heading. Items that did not resolve to a course are never guessed into this list.
search_programs_and_learning_units	Which programs or courses match, and where? Words, a subject (CIP family, or unknown), a course subject prefix, a credential class, an award as published, and a school's state, city, type or UNITID answer with product cards (name, award, length and college when held, school and city, subject, checklist size, and what the program leads to through the CIP-SOC crosswalk) and the counts to refine by. Courses across every school need words of 3 or more characters; words held by very many courses need a state, city or school.
get_courseshelf_summary	What does CourseShelf hold? From the records published with the build, read as published and never computed: per catalog area, how many institutions have loaded content and how many records were loaded; every table's row count; organizations by sector; the census of the whole index with its verdicts; and per-state counts and per-school verdicts where the build publishes them. Anything not published for this build is said so.
find_transitions	Where can this occupation lead? For a SOC code: destination occupations, each with its typed roads (published by ONET or by a credential serving both; mapped through the CIP-SOC crosswalk), each road with its source, basis and its class's karat; the bridges (credentials with their exam, education and experience conditions, and programs with checklists nearest the state given); and demand as ONET publishes it. Roads only, no person data.
compare_destinations	Line up 2 to 6 destination occupations side by side from one occupation: the bridge size (credential only, or the program bridges' awards as published), O*NET demand (median wage, outlook, bright outlook) and the evidence classes of the roads. Each cell is copied or counted, never scored.
will_my_credits_transfer	Will my prior credits apply as credit at my target school? For each thing a person holds (an AP, CLEP or IB exam and its score, or a course taken at a school) the target school's own published transfer rules (CourseAtlas) and CollegeBoard's reported AP policy, in three states: covered (a rule carries it to a course at the target), missing (the target's own rule needs a higher score), unknown (no rule held; never a guess). Each covered item names the course it lands as, every rule with its minimum score and dates, how many rules agree, and the target's programs whose checklists require that course. A case to argue, not a verdict; recognition is the school's act.
