Server tool list (11)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| reactive_resume.list_resumes | Primary way to discover resume IDs for this account. Resumes are not listed as MCP resources; use this tool (not `resources/list`) to enumerate IDs. Returns an array of resume objects (without full resume data) containing: id, name, slug, tags, isPublic, isLocked, createdAt, updatedAt. Call this before `reactive_resume.get_resume`, `reactive_resume.patch_resume`, prompts, or `resources/read` with `resume://{id}`. Results can be filtered by tags and sorted by last updated date, creation date, or name. |
| reactive_resume.get_resume | Get the full data of a specific resume by its ID. Returns the complete resume data as JSON, including: basics (name, headline, email, phone, location, website), summary, picture settings, all sections (experience, education, skills, projects, etc.), custom sections, and metadata (template, layout, typography, colors). Use `reactive_resume.list_resumes` first to find valid IDs. The `resume://_meta/schema` resource describes the full data structure for JSON Patch paths. |
| reactive_resume.create_resume | Create a new, empty resume with a name and URL-friendly slug. Returns the ID of the newly created resume. Set `withSampleData` to true to pre-fill with example content (useful for testing). After creating, use `reactive_resume.get_resume` to view or `reactive_resume.patch_resume` to populate it. |
| reactive_resume.duplicate_resume | Create a copy of an existing resume with all its data. Returns the ID of the newly duplicated resume. You must provide a new name and slug for the copy. Useful for creating job-specific variants of a base resume. |
| reactive_resume.patch_resume | Apply JSON Patch (RFC 6902) operations to partially update a resume's data. This is the primary way to edit resume content. Use `reactive_resume.get_resume` first to inspect the current structure, and `resume://_meta/schema` to understand valid paths and types. Supported operations: add, remove, replace, move, copy, test. |
| reactive_resume.delete_resume | Permanently delete a resume and all its associated files (screenshots, PDFs). This action is IRREVERSIBLE. Locked resumes cannot be deleted — use `reactive_resume.unlock_resume` first. Consider using `reactive_resume.duplicate_resume` to create a backup before deleting. |
| reactive_resume.lock_resume | Lock a resume to prevent any modifications. When locked, a resume cannot be edited (reactive_resume.patch_resume), updated, or deleted. Use `reactive_resume.unlock_resume` to re-enable editing. |
| reactive_resume.unlock_resume | Unlock a previously locked resume, re-enabling edits, patches, and deletion. |
| reactive_resume.export_resume_pdf | Generate a PDF from the specified resume and return a download URL. The PDF is rendered using the resume's current template, layout, and design settings, then uploaded to storage. The returned URL can be shared or downloaded directly. |
| reactive_resume.get_resume_screenshot | Get a visual preview of the resume's first page as a WebP image URL. Screenshots are cached for up to 6 hours and regenerated automatically when the resume is updated. Returns null if the printer service is unavailable. |
