Inspect and manage CTS transport requests: list, show, check (does an object need a transport?), users, create, addUser, setOwner, delete. Reads are always allowed; mutating operations obey the write allowlists. Release is a separate tool, abap_transport_release.

Reads a BOPF business object's design-time model: show (default, digest) | raw (v4 XML) | search (needs object_type) | check_refs (up to max_sites, default 25).

Default op writes the root adtcore:description of an existing ENHO/XH, ENHO/XHH or ENHS/XS, optionally activating it. ENHO/XHH plug-in source body: use abap_write, not this tool. See operation for the other ops.

Read an ABAP object: source or pseudo-DDL. Returns an etag. Capped ~15k tokens — use outline/method/offset for large objects. Example: {"object":"ZCL_FOO","type":"CLAS/OC"}.

Find objects by name pattern (mode=objects, wildcards *) or list consumers (mode=where_used); 20+ seconds on wide fan-in — narrow by type/query first.

Browser-openable URL: ADT source/HTML (object=, type=/line=), keyword doc (keyword=), or Web Dynpro URL (webdynpro=). Exactly one required. Does not open a browser.

mode=check: syntax check, no lock. mode=activate: check then activate.

History and undo for writes abapsmith made. mode=list: recent writes with entry ids. mode=show: one entry with its before-image. mode=undo: revert it — refuses on drift, delete-gate, or an enhancement object; see abapsmith-recover-a-bad-write for details.

ABAP debugger driver: arm breakpoints, run a program, step, inspect the stack. One session at a time; variables read-only, frames observe-only.

Survey of every variable in scope at a debugger stop; complex values come back as abap_debug_value stubs.

Tier-2 drill-in: render one variable path in detail, with a row window for tables.

Read ABAP runtime errors (ST22 short dumps) from the system's dump repository — not the exception text of a run this server just triggered. mode=list filters the dump feed; mode=show returns one dump, chapter by chapter. The feed reaches back 8 DAYS ONLY: an empty list means "no dumps in the last 8 days matching this filter", never "nothing failed". Copy key from a list row VERBATIM. show returns the header, source extract, system fields and call stack, and nothing else unless the operator enabled more.

OData contract a RAP SRVB publishes: entity sets, keys, fields, nav, CRUD/search/page perms; V2/V4 detected. Cannot read entity data — contract only. Unpublished bindings named as such.
