Tool changes

No tool definition changes recorded. A server's first observation is its baseline; later probes record what changes.

Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed. How it is computed.

Tools (35)

`authenticate`	MCP.AI for IDE agents (Cursor, etc.): log in in the browser, copy the access token. Best: add it to this server's config as a header `Authorization: Bearer <token>` for a permanent, non-expiring connection. Or paste it here for a session-only login: call with { token: "<jwt>" } after the user pastes, or with no args to get the link.
`connect`read-only	Returns connection status and URLs. When all providers are connected, returns authenticated:true and empty pending[]. When credentials are missing, returns connect_url for the toolkit and per-install URLs.
`marketplace`	The official mcp.ai marketplace — the in-platform catalog of every MCP/tool, AND the way to run them. Covers capability requests like "find an MCP that does X", "consulta um CPF", "is there a tool for Y". Core flow: action=search discovers MCPs by intent → describe returns one MCP's full profile (every tool with its id + params, pricing, auth) so you pick the right tool_id → invoke RUNS that tool. KEY: invoke works even when the MCP is NOT installed — it runs the tool pontualmente (one-off), without adding the MCP to the toolkit and without bloating the tool list. If the MCP needs a credential/login, invoke returns a connect link; if it is paid and the wallet is empty, invoke returns a checkout/top-up link (the user opens it, then you retry). Use install only to make an MCP PERMANENT in the active toolkit (its tools then show up natively in future sessions); prefer invoke for a single/occasional use. list_tools lists what is callable right now. subscribe/cancel handle per-MCP billing; report_bug sends feedback; request_mcp asks us to build a NEW MCP when nothing fits. Search/describe flag installed_in_toolkit vs installed_in_workspace. Writes (install/uninstall/subscribe/cancel and the one-off install behind invoke) require workspace owner/admin. It also carries the mcp.ai PROMPT LIBRARY, which is about ready-made prompt TEXT rather than MCPs: search_prompts finds one, get_prompt returns its full text with {{variables}} filled, and publish_prompt saves a prompt and returns a shareable mcp.ai/p/<slug> link that opens without login.
`report_bug`	Report a bug, missing feature, or send feedback. Include the conversation array with recent messages for reproduction.
`show_version`read-only	Show the current MCP platform and adapter versions.
`toolkit_info`read-only	Returns the current toolkit state: installed MCPs, their connection status, the accounts connected to each one, and how many catalog tools each exposes.
`youtube_api`read-only	Escape hatch: call any path on the YouTube backend. Pass path (e.g. /search), optional method (default GET), query map, and JSON body for POST. Prefer the named youtube_* tools when available; this is for routes not in the manifest.
`youtube_channel_about`read-only	Channel description, links, country, subscriber count, banner. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_community`read-only	Community posts tab for a channel. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_featured`read-only	Featured channels listed on a channel. Note: YouTube deprecated the featured-channels tab; this route exists upstream but typically returns an empty/error envelope. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_home`read-only	Channel home page payload (featured shelves + meta). Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_playlists`read-only	Channel playlists tab. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_search`read-only	Search a channel's own videos and playlists. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_shorts`read-only	Channel shorts tab. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_shorts_post`read-only	POST variant of channel shorts. Requires a `params` continuation token from a prior GET response. Skip in daily smoke (no synthetic params). Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_store`read-only	Store / merch shelf for a channel. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_videos`read-only	Channel videos tab. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_channel_videos_post`read-only	POST variant of channel videos. Requires a `params` continuation token captured from a prior GET response — used to fetch deeper pages or filtered shelves that the GET surface can't address. Skip in daily smoke (no synthetic params). Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_comment_delete`	Apaga DEFINITIVAMENTE um comentário (não tem desfazer). Só funciona em comentário do próprio canal ou em vídeo do canal conectado. Para esconder sem apagar, prefira youtube_comment_moderate com `rejected`. Custa 50 unidades da cota. Bulk support: accepts comment_ids for batched execution.
`youtube_comment_moderate`	Modera comentários no canal conectado: publica (`published`), segura para revisão (`heldForReview`) ou rejeita (`rejected`). `ban_author` só é aceito junto de `rejected`. Vale apenas para comentários em vídeos do próprio canal. Custa 50 unidades por comentário.
`youtube_comment_post`	Publica um comentário NOVO de topo em um vídeo, como o canal conectado. Para responder alguém, use youtube_comment_reply. Custa 50 unidades da cota. Bulk support: accepts video_ids for batched execution.
`youtube_comment_reply`	Responde comentários como o canal conectado. Aceita VÁRIAS respostas numa chamada (`replies`), e um item que falha não derruba os outros. `parent_id` tem que ser o id de um comentário de TOPO (campo `id` do thread devolvido por youtube_comment_threads), nunca o id de uma resposta. Cada resposta consome 50 unidades da cota da API do YouTube, então responda o que importa em vez de varrer o canal.
`youtube_comments`read-only	Top-level comments thread for a video. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_comment_threads`read-only	Comentários de TOPO pela API oficial, com as respostas já existentes. É daqui que sai o `parent_id` usado em youtube_comment_reply (o id do thread), então prefira esta tool a youtube_comments quando a intenção for responder. Sem `video_id`, traz os comentários do canal conectado inteiro (bom para 'o que ainda não respondi'). Custa 1 unidade da cota. Bulk support: accepts video_ids, channel_ids for batched execution.
`youtube_comment_update`	Edita o texto de um comentário ou resposta PUBLICADO pelo canal conectado (corrigir um erro sem apagar e repostar, o que perderia as curtidas e o encadeamento). Só funciona em comentário de autoria do próprio canal. Custa 50 unidades da cota. Bulk support: accepts comment_ids for batched execution.
`youtube_download`read-only	Stream/download metadata for a video (formats, audio/video URLs, status). Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_hashtag`read-only	Posts under a hashtag (without leading #).
`youtube_home_feed`read-only	YouTube home feed (anonymous, geo/lang aware).
`youtube_hype`read-only	YouTube Hype: viral / hyped videos feed.
`youtube_my_channels`read-only	Lista os canais do YouTube conectados (os que podem responder e moderar comentários), com id, nome e estatísticas. Use antes de responder para confirmar de qual canal a resposta vai sair. Custa 1 unidade da cota.
`youtube_playlist`read-only	Playlist items by playlist id. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
`youtube_resolve_url`read-only	Resolve a YouTube URL or share link to its videoId / pageType.
`youtube_search`read-only	Search videos, channels, playlists.
`youtube_trending`read-only	Trending videos by region.
`youtube_video_related`read-only	Related videos for a given video id. Bulk support: accepts ids for batched execution.
