The server provides several tools for interacting with your specification documents:

Tool Name	Description
`set-project-path`	Set or change the project directory path
`get-brds`	Get Business Requirement Documents
`get-prds`	Get Product Requirement Documents
`get-nfrs`	Get Non-Functional Requirements
`get-uirs`	Get User Interface Requirements
`get-bps`	Get Business Process Documents
`get-user-stories`	Get User Stories for a specific PRD
`get-tasks`	Get Tasks for a specific User Story
`get-task`	Get details of a specific Task
