Server tool list (24)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| zambo_home | Your private Zambo starting point. Use when the user says 'zambo': welcome new users or resume the same caller-scoped job, show today's saved receipt links, actual per-tool free usage, and three practical next actions. Does not spend quota. |
| workflow_close | Create or return an immutable snapshot of this job's eligible receipts. Repeating the call with unchanged receipt data returns the same snapshot workflow_id; later calls after new receipts create a separate snapshot while session_workflow_id continues identifying the live ledger. Both identifiers are unbound metadata excluded from canonical receipt bytes. The first close returns a one-time private workflow_manage_token; retries do not rotate or reissue it. The workflow_close summary receipt is excluded from the step count. Records Zambo's claims, not issuer authentication. |
| workflow_seal | Seals a closed workflow for durable export. Requires the matching job session and an active pass. Never spends, captures, or starts a payment. The export remains a Zambo claim, not issuer authentication. |
| zambo_universal | Universal Zambo entry point for routing natural-language requests across supported Zambo tools through one MCP connection. Covers strategy, code audits, lead generation, wallet intelligence, provenance certificates, swarm coordination, and live market data. Returns a route, execution state, downstream tool results when available, and receipt information. |
| new_session | Starts fresh session context and returns a new session_id. Reuse that ID on subsequent calls for continuity; changing or omitting it starts clean context. |
| continuity_get_recent | Reads only the private receipt timeline for the supplied job or thread ID. Returns receipt links, has_more, and a cursor for the next page. Use since to filter by an inclusive RFC3339 timestamp. Optional AI client labels are self-reported, not verified. |
| continuity_list_threads | Lists named threads owned by the supplied job ID. Thread IDs can be used as _session_id by another AI client. |
| continuity_open_thread | Opens a named thread or thread ID and returns only events with stored Zambo receipts, including links to open and check each receipt. |
| continuity_start_thread | Creates or reuses a named thread under an existing job ID. Pass the returned thread_id as _session_id to append work from another AI client. |
| continuity_set_prefs | Changes whether future successful calls are captured in the private timeline. It does not remove or hide public receipts already created. |
| journal_log | Free anonymous or authenticated append-only log for an action performed outside Zambo. The entry is recorded as an agent-reported claim; Zambo does not claim it ran or observed the action. Limited to 20 calls per IP per day on the free tier. |
| live_price | Real-time cryptocurrency price lookup for supported coins. Uses CoinGecko first, Coinbase as a secondary no-key provider, then the most recent cached verified value with its age if both live providers are unavailable. Returns live USD price, 24-hour percentage change, and market capitalization when verified. |
| pdf_extract | Fetch and extract text content from any public URL - PDF documents, web pages, articles, docs. Returns the extracted text, word count, and a summary. Works on research papers, contracts, articles, reports. Use when user says 'read this PDF', 'extract from this URL', 'summarize this document', 'what does this say'. |
| leadsignal | AI lead generation for contractors and local service businesses. Accepts a trade type and city. Returns qualified local leads with available contact information. |
| provibe_audit | AI code audit for a public GitHub repository. Returns a Provibe score from 0 to 100, security vulnerabilities, a dead-code map, and an execution plan for addressing the findings. |
| ghost_audit_site | Achilles 10-stage audit for a website. Returns SEO gaps, AI discoverability issues, conversion leaks, brand-presence gaps, competitor intelligence, a score from 0 to 100, stage findings, an audit ID, a live stream URL, and a report URL. |
| ghost_audit_status | Status report for a Ghost Audit identified by audit_id. Returns whether the audit is running or complete, along with elapsed-time information and report availability. |
| ghost_audit_report | Full markdown report for a completed Ghost Audit. Returns the Achilles 10-stage score, severity-ranked findings, stage analysis, and recommended fixes. |
| credithunt | Live verified index of AI and cloud startup credit programs. Accepts optional stack, stage, and minimum value filters. Returns count, updated_at, opportunities, and api. |
| prompt_shield | Detection and analysis of prompt injection, jailbreak, and policy-bypass attempts. Returns an injection risk score, a safe/review/block recommendation, attack indicators, and a safe rewritten version when available. |
| day_pass_checkout_link | Create a 30-minute short link for a human-approved $0.99, 24-hour Day Pass by card or PayPal. Optional workflow_id targets a closed run; sponsor:true explicitly lets you pay to seal another team's run without transferring branding ownership. The link is not an order or charge. |
| day_pass_activate | Agent-native access activation endpoint. Accepts an optional payment envelope or existing access key and returns a payment challenge or verified activation result. Activation results include receipt URL, run ID, access key, expiration, usage guidance, and a spend receipt. Activation occurs only after a verified transfer. |
| day_pass_status | Check a Day Pass using _zambo_key, X-Zambo-Key, or the same _session_id used at card checkout or x402 payment. Returns active, expires_at, and calls_left without spending quota. Gateway calls are unmetered while active; product/provider limits may still apply. Never returns the key. |
| capability_search | Search across the supported Zambo tool catalog for a use case. Returns relevant tools with relevance scores, descriptions, taglines, and callable API endpoints. |
