What your AI tool can do

The tools the server offers, grouped by what they are for.

The tools fall into four groups: handing work to Automo Build's agents, operating the platform, observing what is happening, and reviewing builder work.

Hand work to Automo Build's agents

Ask a specialist instead of doing the work yourself. Builds run in parallel in the cloud while your tool carries on.

  • automo_ask_cto — questions across your projects.
  • automo_run_doctor — triage for deployments, drift and stuck sandboxes.
  • automo_ask_security — scans, findings, access rules and secrets.
  • automo_run_qa — drive the app like a user, or run a playbook.
  • automo_design_workflow — turn "when X happens, do Y" into a standing workflow. Plan-gated.
  • automo_build — hand a brief to a builder subagent that works in parallel. Returns a builder link.
  • automo_prompt_project — one turn on the project's main agent, for foundational, sequential work. Queues behind a running turn.
  • automo_continue — reply to or redirect any session.
  • automo_read_session — read progress. Can wait up to 60 seconds.

Operate the platform

  • automo_whoami, automo_list_workspaces, automo_switch_workspace — who you are and which workspace you are in.
  • automo_search_projects, automo_get_project — find projects and read their details. Environment variables are shown by name only, never values.
  • automo_create_project, automo_wake_sandbox, automo_merge_projects — create and manage projects.
  • automo_list_branches, automo_merge_branch, automo_read_diff — branches and changes.
  • automo_propose_deployment, automo_get_pending_publish — prepare a publish.
  • automo_list_playbooks, automo_get_playbook, automo_run_playbook, automo_save_playbook — playbooks.
  • automo_list_workflows, automo_get_workflow_runs — workflows and their runs.

There are also tools for QA files and folders, and for sharing a preview link or a clone link.

Observe

  • automo_turn_status — whether a turn is still running.
  • automo_read_project_chat — the project's chat.
  • automo_preview_screenshot — a screenshot of the preview.
  • automo_get_project_status — the project's current state.
  • automo_about — about the server.

You can also read deployment history, security findings, playbook run screenshots and workspace activity.

Review builder work

  • automo_list_reviews, automo_get_review — see reviews and their verdicts.
  • automo_run_reviewer, automo_apply_review_fixes — run a review and apply its fixes.
  • automo_approve_review, automo_promote, automo_cancel_review — approve, promote or cancel.

What stays in the app

Plan approval, deployment approval, design mode, review settings and billing stay in the app. Raw sandbox logs are not exposed; ask the Doctor instead.

There is no "ping" tool. Do not create test projects or send hello prompts to check the connection: they cost credits.
