Server tool list (8)

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

get_healthCheck the health status of the mcp-forge API.
validate_licenseCheck whether the license key is valid and retrieve plan identity (valid, reason, plan, tenant_id, valid_until). Always returns 200 — use reason when valid=false. For usage numbers, call get_quota instead.
get_quotaCheck quota usage: plan, sources used, slots remaining and expiry date. Call this before any generate_from_* tool to warn the user if the quota is near the limit.
generate_from_openapiGenerate a production-ready MCP server from an OpenAPI/Swagger spec URL. Server-side parsing — provide only the spec URL.
generate_from_graphqlGenerate an MCP server from a GraphQL endpoint via server-side introspection. Works on dev/staging APIs with introspection enabled.
generate_from_websiteGenerate an MCP server by analyzing API patterns on a website (HTML + JavaScript). Best for server-rendered pages; SPAs may yield partial results.
generate_asyncAdvanced: submit a generation job with a pre-parsed DiscoveryPayload (source_type + base_url). Use generate_from_openapi / generate_from_graphql / generate_from_website for automatic server-side parsing instead.
get_job_statusCheck the status of an async generation job. Call this after generate_from_* or generate_async returns a job_id (generation was still running after ~37s).
