principles.list

List all 10 Blueprint principles with stable slugs, titles, and clusters. Use this when you need the full inventory or want every principle in one cluster (pass cluster slug to filter). Prefer principles.search when the user describes a topic, failure mode, or keyword in natural language. Prefer principles.get when you already know the exact slug and need full detail.

clusters.list

List all principle clusters with their stable slugs and linked principle titles. Use this to discover which clusters exist before drilling in with clusters.get or filtering principles.list by cluster. Prefer clusters.get when you already know the cluster slug and need full detail.

No parameters.

principles.get

Get one Blueprint principle by stable slug. Returns id, title, cluster, definition, rationale, risk-if-violated, implementation heuristics, and linked example slugs (which examples.get can hydrate). Use this when you already have the exact slug from principles.list or principles.search; prefer principles.search when the user describes a topic or failure mode in natural language; prefer principles.list when you need every principle or every principle within a cluster. Returns error_payload on unknown slug.

clusters.get

Get one principle cluster by stable slug. Returns the cluster definition, shared rationale, and the full set of member principles (slug + title) so the caller can pivot into principles.get without a second list call. WHEN TO CALL: the user has already named a specific cluster (e.g. 'delegation', 'visibility', 'trust', 'orchestration') OR you have a slug from a prior clusters.list / principles.list response and need its full definition + member principles. The response embeds member principle slugs + titles already, so DO NOT loop principles.get over each member to get a cluster overview — read the response. WHEN NOT TO CALL: the user is describing a topic, failure mode, or keyword in natural language (call principles.search instead); the user wants to discover which clusters exist (call clusters.list); the user wants the definition of one specific principle (call principles.get directly). Idempotent + cacheable per slug. Returns 404-shaped error_payload on unknown slug — the slug must match exactly the value emitted by clusters.list, with no normalization.

examples.get

Get one curated example by stable slug. Returns title, summary, source-code links, principle coverage (the principle slugs the example demonstrates), difficulty, library/framework, and implementation notes. Use this when you already have the slug from examples.search, a principles.get response, or a guide cross-link; prefer examples.search when filtering by topic / principle / difficulty / library; prefer guides.get when the caller wants a full walkthrough rather than a single reference example. Returns error_payload on unknown slug.

principles.search

Search Blueprint principles by free-text query and return the closest matches ranked by relevance. Use this to find principles related to a specific design challenge, failure mode, or keyword (e.g. 'reversibility', 'approval flow', 'delegation boundary'). Returns principle title, cluster, definition, rationale, and implementation heuristics. Prefer this over principles.list when you have a specific topic in mind rather than wanting all principles.

examples.search

Search curated examples by free-text query, ranked by relevance, with optional filters: principle_ids (only examples covering those principles), difficulty (beginner/intermediate/advanced), library (e.g. 'langgraph', 'openai'). Returns each match's slug, title, summary, principle coverage, difficulty, library, and source-code link — slug is the handle examples.get hydrates. Default limit 5, capped server-side. Use this when the user describes a use case, technique, or library and wants matching examples; prefer examples.get when you already have the slug; prefer guides.search when the user wants a full walkthrough; prefer principles.search when the user wants doctrine guidance, not an implementation.

assets.list

Public — list downloadable doctrine and agent asset artifacts (skill packs, rule packs, MCP setup snippets) the user can drop into their AI coding tool to import the Blueprint as native skill/rule files. Returns a list of assets with name, format (one of: zip / md / markdown / mdc / json / toml / text — the full vocabulary), pack_version, download_url, and platform target (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, Qwen). The response also carries `count` (length of `assets`) for symmetry with principles.list / clusters.list / guides.list. WHEN TO CALL: the user asks how to bring the Blueprint into their coding agent, or wants to install it as a local skill/rule file. WHEN NOT TO CALL: for the live MCP tools themselves — those are already available through this server. For doctrine content, prefer principles.list/get and guides.list/get. BEHAVIOR: read-only, idempotent, no auth required. Asset artefacts are regenerated on every deploy from the canonical doctrine.

No parameters.

guides.list

List application guides that show how Blueprint principles apply to engineering challenges (security, evaluation, observability, etc.). Use this to discover which guides exist before drilling in. Prefer guides.search when the user describes a topic or failure mode in natural language. Prefer guides.get when you already know the guide slug and need full detail.

No parameters.

guides.get

Get a full application guide by its stable slug (e.g. 'security-application', 'observable-evaluation'). Returns sections, action items, and linked principles. Use this when you already have the guide slug from guides.list or guides.search. Prefer guides.search when the user describes a topic in natural language; prefer guides.list when you need the full inventory.

guides.search

Search application guides by free-text query, matched against section answers and action items. Use this when the user describes an engineering challenge (security review, evaluation harness, observability) and wants matching guides. Prefer guides.get when you already have the guide slug; prefer guides.list when you need the full inventory.

signals.report

Pro/Teams — records a value moment (review_confidence, runtime_risk_found, regression_caught, recommendation_taken) after a successful architect.validate or design session. Each event captures event_type, surface_used (mcp/web/cli), perceived_value (1-5), and an optional brief_context — structured fields only, NO prompts or code stored. WHEN TO CALL: after architect.validate returns a clearly useful result AND the user has acknowledged the value (or you ask them "would you rate this 1-5?"). Validate's response carries an explicit next_step instruction telling the agent to OFFER this call — surface that offer to the user. WHEN NOT TO CALL: silently or without the user's awareness; on every validate (only after a clear value moment); to capture intent or speculative value. If the user declines, do not retry within the same session. BEHAVIOR: write-only, single insert into ValueEvent. Auth: Bearer <token>, Pro or Teams plan required. UK/EU residency. Do NOT include proprietary code, prompt content, or PII in brief_context — it surfaces in admin AI-visibility dashboards. Expect a 1-line acknowledgment in the response; the structured feedback is then aggregated server-side.

signals.feedback

Public — records explicit free-text user feedback about the Blueprint, this tool surface, or a specific principle/example. Captures category (bug, doctrine_critique, missing_example, ergonomics, other), free-text body, and optional contact_email when permission_to_follow_up is true. WHEN TO CALL: ONLY when the user explicitly says they want to give feedback (e.g. 'can you log this as feedback', 'file this critique', 'send a bug report'). Use signals.report instead for value-moment metrics (rating validate's output 1-5). WHEN NOT TO CALL: proactively, silently, or to substitute for signals.report. Never harvest contact info without explicit permission_to_follow_up=true. BEHAVIOR: write-only, no auth required (open to all callers), single insert into UserFeedback. UK/EU residency. contact_email is stored ONLY when permission_to_follow_up=true, and that fact is confirmed back in the response so the user can see the privacy boundary.

architect.validate

Pro/Teams — first-pass doctrine review of agentic code/workflow against the 10-principle Agentic AI Blueprint. ON CLIENT TIMEOUT — DO NOT RETRY THIS TOOL. Long-running LLM call (60-180s typical); MCP clients commonly close the call before the server returns. Retrying re-runs the 60-180s LLM call from scratch and burns compute. RECOVERY: the run_id is emitted in the FIRST notifications/progress event at t=0s (before the LLM call begins) — capture it. On timeout, call `me.validation_history(run_id='<that-id>')` to fetch the persisted result; the server-side run completes independently within a 20-minute budget. Edge case: if the transport dropped before the first progress notification (very rare; sub-second window), call `me.validation_history(repository='<same value you passed here>')` to find your most recent run. TASK-AUGMENTED INVOCATION (MCP 2025-11-25, SEP-1686): clients that advertise the `tasks` capability can task-augment this call by including `task: {ttl: <ms>}` inside the JSON-RPC request's `params` (NOT as a tool argument; alongside `arguments`, `_meta`, etc.). The server returns a `CreateTaskResult` immediately (taskId equals the run_id above) and runs the validation in the background. Spec-correct long-running pattern: poll via `tasks/get` for state, fetch the terminal payload via `tasks/result`, listen for `notifications/tasks/status` for push updates, and cancel via `tasks/cancel`. `_meta.progressToken` from the original request stays valid for the entire task lifetime. Sync (non-augmented) calls behave exactly as before, backwards-compatible by construction. The me.validation_history(run_id=...) recovery path remains the canonical recovery handle for clients that don't yet advertise the tasks capability. Returns code_classification (autonomous_agentic_workflow vs non_agentic_component), per-principle findings (verdict, severity_score 0-100, severity_class, code-cited evidence, recommendation), severity-weighted readiness (score|null, grade|null, tier ∈ {production_ready, emerging, draft, not_applicable}), recommended examples, reproducibility envelope (model, seed, doctrine_fingerprint, prompt_template_fingerprint), persistence_status with shareable run_id/badge_url/review_url. WHEN TO CALL: the user wants a governance audit, readiness score, or production_ready badge on an agent/workflow they just built or changed. WHEN NOT TO CALL: non-agentic plumbing (math utilities, type aliases, event-loop helpers, single-shot request/response handlers) returns tier=not_applicable with score=null/grade=null — that's not a failure, the doctrine simply doesn't grade non-agentic code, and architect.certify will refuse with not_agentic_component. Submit the OWNING agentic workflow instead. BEHAVIOR: long-running LLM call (~60-180s typical at high reasoning effort, single-pass; server-side budget 20 min). Mints run_id at t=0; first notifications/progress event carries run_id as recovery handle; keepalive every 30s. Persists ValidationRun + UserValidationRun + AIValidationRunLog + LLMUsageLog atomically; on rollback, badge/review URLs are stripped. Auth: Bearer <token>, Pro/Teams plan. UK/EU residency; transient OpenAI processing (no-training); prompt-injection in code is inert. INPUTS: send FULL file contents verbatim as `implementation_context` (NO truncation, NO `...` placeholders, NO comment removal — the architect treats your `...` as literal code and hallucinates bugs that don't exist). If too large, split into MULTIPLE calls scoped by file/module; never truncate one call. Pass repository="<name>" to group runs into a project trend. Pass private_session=true to bypass server-side logging (persistence + recovery disabled). focus_area narrows scope; unmatched focus_area fails explicitly rather than silently widening. PAYLOAD COMPLETENESS (load-bearing if you intend to architect.certify this run): the validate first-pass is permissive — it scores on doctrine alignment + structural patterns visible in the submitted code. Cert's adversarial second-pass is rigorous — it scores on cert-payload-completeness as well as code

architect.validate_consensus

Pro/Teams — N-shot CONSENSUS doctrine review of agentic code. ON CLIENT TIMEOUT — DO NOT RETRY THIS TOOL. Long-running (~80-120s for N=3 parallel LLM calls); MCP clients often close the call before the server returns. Retrying re-runs N × 60-180s LLM calls from scratch and burns N× compute. RECOVERY: same heartbeat pattern as architect.validate — the run_id is emitted in the FIRST progress event at t=0s (before LLM children fire); on timeout, call `me.validation_history(run_id='<that-id>')` to fetch the persisted consensus envelope. Runs N parallel `architect.validate` calls with private_session=True, then aggregates them to a per-principle MODE verdict + median severity + per-principle stability + score range/stdev. Returns one ConsensusValidationResponse with the headline median score, the honest variance band, and a representative full ValidationResponse (the child whose score is closest to the median). WHEN TO CALL: the user wants an HONEST first-pass score on agentic code, with the architect's variance surfaced. The single-shot `architect.validate` re-asserts the prior persisted run's verdict via baseline-anchor injection — same code can score 60/C anchored vs 98/A unanchored. Consensus mode is the unanchored honest read. WHEN NOT TO CALL: when you NEED the iteration delta against a prior run (regressions/improvements panel) — for that, call `architect.validate` which keeps baseline injection on. CHAIN RESUME: each child runs with `private_session=True` (no anchor) on purpose, but the CONSOLIDATED outer row IS persisted with `lifecycle_status='completed'` — the next single-shot `architect.validate` on the same repository auto-resolves it as prior_run_baseline. Consensus checkpoint becomes the new anchor. See the `architect-validation-orchestration` skill in the agent-asset pack for the full validate → consensus → certify sequence. BEHAVIOR: N (default 3, max 5) parallel LLM calls run concurrently; wallclock ~80-120s for N=3 (max child latency, not sum). Cost = N × LLM bill. Each child runs with private_session=True so the doctrine prompt's prior-run baseline injection is suppressed (no anchor bias). One CONSOLIDATED `UserValidationRun` row is written carrying the consensus envelope; the N children themselves do NOT persist (private_session contract). AUTH: Bearer <token>, Pro/Teams plan. Same paid-plan gate as architect.validate. INPUTS: same shape as architect.validate. `n` is the only extra arg (range 2..5). `private_session` is implicit (always true for children); the OUTER consolidated row IS persisted unless the tool itself is called inside another private context — but no such wrapper exists today. OUTPUT: response carries `score_consensus_median` (headline), `score_stdev` (honest uncertainty), `score_range` (min, max), `mode_stability_min_pct` (the cert-eligibility gate's input — ≥ 80% means the consensus is stable), `per_principle` (mode + distribution + severity median per principle), and `representative_response` (the closest-to-median child's full ValidationResponse so existing UI components render unchanged). TYPED FAILURES: same as architect.validate (timed_out, rate_limited, dependency_unavailable). Plus consensus-specific: `consensus_quorum_failed` when fewer than 2 child runs succeeded (≥ 2 required to compute a meaningful median).

architect.certify

Pro/Teams — second-pass adversarial certification of an architect.validate run that scored production_ready (A or B first-pass tier). ON CLIENT TIMEOUT — DO NOT RETRY THIS TOOL. **RECOVERY FIRST**: the run_id is emitted in the FIRST notifications/progress event at t=0s (BEFORE the LLM call begins). Capture it. On timeout, call `me.validation_history(run_id='<that-id>')` to fetch the persisted cert verdict; the server-side run completes independently within a 20-minute budget. This is the canonical recovery path. Use it before considering any retry. Long-running LLM call (60-180s typical; exceeds Claude Code's ~60s idle budget); MCP clients commonly close the call before the server returns. Retrying re-runs the LLM call AND burns one of your 3 cert retry-budget attempts. Mints the certified production_ready badge when both reviewers sign off; caps the run to C/emerging when the second pass surfaces a missed production_blocker. MANDATORY DOCTRINE RULE (load-bearing): the badge certifies the EXACT code that produced the validate run_id, NOT 'this codebase' in general. If you modify, fix, or iterate the code between architect.validate and architect.certify — even a single character — cert rejects with code_fingerprint_mismatch. Fixing the code voids the run. The recovery path is always: edit code → architect.validate → fresh run_id → architect.certify on the fresh run. Do NOT cert from a stale run_id after iteration; ask the user to re-validate first. WHEN TO CALL: only after architect.validate returned tier=production_ready AND the user wants the certified badge AND the code has not been touched since the validate run. NOT for tier=draft/emerging/not_applicable runs (typed rejections fire — see below). NOT idempotent across attempts: each call is one of the 3 attempts in the retry budget. BEHAVIOR: atomic one-shot single LLM call, ~60-180s server-side at high reasoning effort (small payloads finish faster; observed p99 ~250s; server-side budget is 20 min, ~5× observed max). Exceeds typical MCP-client tool-call idle budget (~60s in Claude Code), so the FIRST notifications/progress event fires at t=0 carrying the run_id. The run is atomic by contract — no in_progress lifecycle, no cancellation, no resume. Updates the persisted run's result_json (public review URL + me.validation_history(run_id=...) reflect the cert outcome). ELIGIBILITY GATE (typed rejection enum on failure): caller must own the run, tier=production_ready, less than 24h old, not already certified, within cert retry budget (max 3 attempts), no other cert call in flight for the same run_id, code fingerprint must match the validated code, AND the submitted payload must be cert-payload-complete (see Payload Completeness below — cert rejects pre-LLM with `payload_incomplete` when an imported module's surface isn't visible in the validate payload that produced this run_id). Rejection reasons (typed Literal): auth_required, paid_plan_required, run_not_found, not_run_owner, not_eligible_tier, not_agentic_component (tier=not_applicable runs), already_certified, certification_age_exceeded, retry_budget_exhausted, code_fingerprint_mismatch, code_fingerprint_missing, code_not_on_file (caller omitted `code` argument AND the 24h cert-retry hold for this run has expired or was never written. Recovery: re-run architect.certify from the same MCP session that ran architect.validate, passing the code explicitly — the server never persists code by design), payload_incomplete (submitted/validated payload imports modules whose contents aren't visible — cert refuses pre-LLM to prevent a false-precision downgrade. Recovery: re-validate with verbatim public-surface stubs for every imported module, then re-cert on the fresh run_id. Empirically validated: PR #157 iter8/iter9 cert rejections were exactly this class — code on disk was correct, the submitted payload merely omitted module visibility), cert_consensus_score_below_threshold (consensus_median<75 — consensus runs only), cert_consensus_unstable_blocker (any principle mode_stability<80% — consensus runs only), run_state_corrupt,

team.summarize

Pro/Teams — summarises the caller's tool-usage patterns and value signals over a configurable window (default 30 days). Returns tool_call_counts, top principles cited in validate runs, value_event_counts by event_type, and an aggregate readiness trend. WHEN TO CALL: the user asks 'how is the Blueprint helping me/my team', 'what should I explore next', or 'show me my Blueprint usage'. WHEN NOT TO CALL: proactively or on every conversation turn (the summary is an explicit retrospective, not telemetry); to compare users (returns only the caller's own data). BEHAVIOR: read-only, idempotent over the same window. Aggregates from AIToolCallLog + ValueEvent + AIValidationRunLog. Pass private_session=true to bypass server-side logging for this summary call (the underlying historical data still exists; only this read is untracked). Auth: Bearer <token>, Pro or Teams plan. UK/EU residency.

me.learning_path

Authenticated — returns the caller's Blueprint learning-path state: current course slug, stage progress, certification status (Foundation, Practitioner, Capstone), Capstone track eligibility flags, and the next recommended stage. WHEN TO CALL: the user asks 'where am I', 'what's next', or 'am I Capstone-eligible'; before suggesting next-step coaching content. WHEN NOT TO CALL: as a heartbeat (state changes only when the user completes a stage); to read another user's progress. BEHAVIOR: read-only, idempotent. Auth: Bearer <token> (any plan, including basic). Returns user_email, course_slug, stages list with completion timestamps, certification block, and a next_stage hint.

No parameters.

me.coaching_context

Authenticated — returns stages in the caller's active course where recorded evidence is thin relative to the stage's principle requirements. Each thin stage carries the missing principle slugs + a short diagnostic so the caller can suggest the user record concrete evidence. WHEN TO CALL: when the user asks 'what should I work on next' or 'what's weak in my Blueprint progress'; before suggesting which guide/example to consult. Pair with me.add_evidence to close gaps. WHEN NOT TO CALL: to lecture the user on principles they have already satisfied; on every conversation turn (state changes only when evidence is added). BEHAVIOR: read-only, idempotent. Auth: Bearer <token> (any plan). Returns thin_stages list with stage slug, course slug, missing principles, evidence_count, and a coaching_note.

No parameters.

me.add_evidence

Authenticated — append a free-text evidence note to a specific stage in the caller's active course. Notes record concrete implementation observations, decisions, or artefacts that demonstrate progress through a Blueprint principle (e.g. how a delegation boundary was implemented, what approval flow was chosen and why). Persisted as UserStageEvidence rows scoped to (user_id, course_slug, stage_slug). WHEN TO CALL: AFTER the user has articulated something concrete they have built, observed, or decided — not to capture intent or speculation. Pair with me.coaching_context to close evidence gaps. WHEN NOT TO CALL: to log every conversation turn; to record planning, ideas, or todos; on behalf of another user; without the user's awareness (they should know their progress is being recorded). BEHAVIOR: write-only, single insert. Auth: Bearer <token> (Firebase ID token, any plan). UK/EU residency. Notes are visible only to the owning user and are surfaced on me.learning_path / me.coaching_context. Confirms the stage_slug + course_slug pair in the response so the user can see which stage was credited.

me.validation_history

Pro/Teams — return the authenticated user's architect.validate run history with the Blueprint Readiness Score (0-100), letter grade (A-F), and tier (draft, emerging, production_ready). Three lookup modes: (1) `run_id=<id>` returns a SINGLE run with the full persisted result_json — use this to RECOVER a result when your MCP client tool-call timed out before architect.validate returned. The run completes server-side and persists; the run_id is surfaced in the first progress notification of every architect.validate call so you have the recovery handle even when your client gives up early. (2) `repository=<name>` returns the full per-run trend for that repository plus a regression diff between the latest two runs. (3) No arguments returns one summary per repository the user has validated, sorted by most recent. Use modes (2) or (3) BEFORE calling architect.validate again on the same repository — they tell you which principles regressed since the last run, so you can focus the new review on what is actually changing. Auth: Bearer <token>. Pro or Teams plan required.

handoffs.operator

Authenticated — creates a support handoff record when an agent needs human review, account-specific escalation, or operator follow-up that cannot be resolved with the read-only doctrine tools. Persists a SupportHandoff row (reason, topic, page_url, agent_name, agent_platform, trace_summary, user_email) routed to the support inbox; user is contacted by the team. WHEN TO CALL: user explicitly asks for human help, hits a billing/access issue, or the agent has tried the doctrine tools and the user still needs a human. ALWAYS confirm with the user before firing — this creates a human-visible ticket. WHEN NOT TO CALL: proactively, silently, or to log debugging traces (use diagnostic logs instead); for partnerships/agency enquiries (use handoffs.partnership / handoffs.agency); for content questions answerable by principles.search / guides.search. BEHAVIOR: write-only, single insert, side-effecting (creates a ticket the team will see). Auth: Bearer <token> (any plan). UK/EU residency. Response confirms ticket id + topic so the user can reference it.

handoffs.partnership

Authenticated — creates a partnerships handoff record for design-partner, ecosystem, training, or advisory conversations needing human review. Persists a PartnershipHandoff row routed to the partnerships inbox; the user is contacted by the team. WHEN TO CALL: user explicitly wants to engage as a design partner, co-marketing/training partner, or evaluate the Blueprint for their org's training programme. ALWAYS confirm with the user before firing — this creates a human-visible partnerships ticket. WHEN NOT TO CALL: for general support / billing / access issues (use handoffs.operator); for paid-engagement enquiries (use handoffs.agency); proactively or as a sales prompt — only when the user has explicitly asked. BEHAVIOR: write-only, single insert, side-effecting (creates a ticket). Auth: Bearer <token> (any plan). UK/EU residency. Response confirms the ticket id + audience so the user can reference it.

handoffs.agency

Authenticated — submit an agency engagement enquiry on behalf of the caller for a founder-led discovery call. Persists an AgencyHandoff row routed to the agency inbox; the user is contacted by the team for a scoped proposal. Engagement scopes: workflow sprint (rapid agentic workflow implementation), proof-of-concept (validate a specific agent design in a bounded timeframe), pilot support (co-design and validate a production-ready pilot), advisory (ongoing architectural guidance across a product team). WHEN TO CALL: the user has identified a paid hands-on expert engagement need beyond self-service learning, and explicitly asks to talk to the team or book a discovery call. ALWAYS confirm with the user before firing — this creates a sales-visible record. WHEN NOT TO CALL: for free training / partnerships discussion (use handoffs.partnership); for support / billing / access (use handoffs.operator); proactively or as a sales push. BEHAVIOR: write-only, single insert, side-effecting. Auth: Bearer <token> (Firebase ID token, any plan). UK/EU residency. Response confirms the ticket id + scope so the user can reference it.
