An agent can connect on its own if it already holds ARGUS_TOKEN.Remote endpoint behind a static API key or header. The registry never sees the value; the agent fills the placeholder.

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 (10)

connect_providerConnect a provider to THIS project with a credential. Validates the credential against the provider before storing it (encrypted), then queues the initial sync. Args: provider (id from list_available_providers), secret (the provider API key), credential_type (optional), label (optional). Only pass secrets your operator gave you for this purpose.
get_advisoriesAll current advisories (top-up, upgrade, near-limit, spend-spike) across providers.
get_cost_accuracyCost-accuracy state per provider: whether itemized costs are exact, estimated, or unreconciled, with the drift % between Argus's itemized total and the provider's own reported spend.
get_overviewCross-provider rollup: balance, burn rate, days-to-zero, month-to-date spend, projection, rate-limit headroom.
get_providerFull metrics + rate-limit snapshots for one connection id.
get_rate_limit_statusLatest rate-limit headroom and error rate across the org's providers.
get_request_costsRecent itemized per-request costs for a provider (model, tokens, cost in USD, provenance). Args: provider (string), limit (number, default 25, max 100).
list_available_providersProviders that can be connected with an API key (poll plane). Anything else can still be tracked by sending telemetry — see https://argus.town/docs/ingest.
list_connectionsList the org's connected providers and status.
sync_connectionQueue an immediate balance/usage/plan refresh for one connection. Args: connection_id.

Schemas: list_tools.
