• 2026-10-16list_recent_api_changeschangeddescription
  before

  List the on-demand feed of recent AI and developer API changes (status flips, deprecation-page edits, model retirements, pricing-page edits). Use for a chosen window, one provider, or one kind, when explaining sudden breakage. Not for live up/down (check_api_status) and not for the once-a-day digest, which also covers MCP server breakage (get_digest). Returns summary, count, freshness, and changes[] with provider, kind, title, detail, source, and at, newest first. Status rows arrive within about 4 minutes; doc-page rows every few hours. A limit above 500 is clamped to 500; an unknown provider returns an empty list, not an error. Example: {"provider":"anthropic","kind":"model_retirement"}. Free within the daily quota, then $0.01 via x402. Alias: get_changes.

  before

  Check whether one AI or developer API provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral, Groq, GitHub, Stripe, Cloudflare, Vercel, Supabase, Twilio, ~40 total) is up, degraded, or down right now. Use before calling that provider, or right after 5xx/429/timeouts, to choose retry, wait, or a fallback. Not for a model id (check_model_deprecation), the filtered change feed (list_recent_api_changes), or the daily rollup (get_digest). Returns summary, verdict (up|degraded|partially down|down|unknown), recommended_action, incidents, affected_components, checked_at, and freshness; status is rechecked about every 4 minutes. An unknown provider id returns 404 unknown_provider. Example: {"provider":"openai"}. Free within the daily quota, then $0.003 via x402. Alias: get_status.

  Daily breaking-changes digest (free): AI/dev API incidents, model deprecations/retirements, pricing-page changes, breaking MCP server changes. Optional date YYYY-MM-DD, default latest.

  after · 19% of words in common

  Read one published daily breaking-changes digest: AI/dev API status flips, model deprecations and retirements, pricing-page edits, and breaking MCP server changes. Use for a once-a-day catch-up. For a filtered on-demand API feed with no MCP section, use list_recent_api_changes; for live up/down, check_api_status; for one model id, check_model_deprecation. Always free (no quota, no x402). Published once at 12:00 UTC as a frozen window since the previous issue (usually ~24h); not updated later. Omit date for the latest; a missing YYYY-MM-DD returns 404 {error:no_issue}. One issue per date, no paging. Returns {date, title, summary, window_start, window_end, published_at, markdown, data, url, sponsor:null}. data holds counts, status, open_now, model_changes, shutting_down_30d, pricing, deprecation_page_edits, and mcp (breaking, non_breaking, down, back, auth_broken, auth_fixed). markdown caps model rows, breaking MCP rows, and each MCP event kind at 30, 30, and 20; data is the full window.
