Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| cloudkit_auth_statusA | Report whether this server has a working CloudKit management token, whether writes are enabled, and — when something is missing — exactly what to set. Call this first when a tool you expected is not listed: an absent tool here means missing configuration rather than a bug. |
| cloudkit_list_containersA | List the CloudKit containers this team can manage, with their ids. Use this to find the container id the other cloudkit_* tools take. |
| cloudkit_list_record_typesA | List a container environment's record types and their fields. This is how you confirm a newly added field actually reached CloudKit: Core Data and SwiftData prefix everything with |
| cloudkit_export_schemaA | Export an environment's full schema as a |
| cloudkit_diff_schemaA | Show what deploying would change: the pending differences between the container's DEVELOPMENT and PRODUCTION schemas, one row per change. Read this before cloudkit_deploy_schema. Production is additive-only and irreversible — a field can be added forever, but never removed, renamed or retyped — so a diff proposing anything other than additions is a reason to stop. |
| cloudkit_validate_schemaA | Validate a local |
| cloudkit_requestA | Escape hatch: issue an arbitrary CloudKit management API request. The other cloudkit_* tools cover the documented-by-observation routes; this exists because the API is undocumented, so one endpoint being shaped differently than expected should not make the rest unreachable. Prefer a specific tool when one fits. Only GET is available while writes are disabled. |
