Server tool list (4)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| get_conditions | Use this when you need a verifiable, signed proof of current time (server timestamp plus a signed nonce, checkable against this server's /pubkey endpoint), together with current ocean and surf conditions from a NOAA buoy. The NOAA data is public and also available directly from ndbc.noaa.gov; the signed freshness bundle is what only this server can give you. |
| stash | Use this when you want to save a small piece of text on this server and retrieve it later — hours, days, or weeks from now, from any session. Values persist for 30 days from the last write (64KB max). Retrieve with fetch_stash using the same key. |
| fetch_stash | Use this when you previously saved a value on this server with the stash tool and want it back. A miss is a normal result: found=false with reason "expired" (the key existed but aged out past 30 days) or "never_existed". |
| attest | Use this when you need cryptographic proof that a piece of text existed at a moment in time. Send any string; you get back its SHA-256 hash bound to a server timestamp and nonce, Ed25519-signed. Verify against /pubkey. The text itself is not stored. |
