Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| devto_list_operationsA | Browse the 139 operations in the Forem/Dev.to API — 49 reachable through this server and 90 excluded, each with the reason why. Call this first to find the operation id for devto_call. |
| devto_callA | Call any operation listed by devto_list_operations. Use this for anything the purpose-built tools below do not cover. |
| devto_get_meB | The authenticated user's own profile. |
| devto_list_my_articlesA | List your own articles. Defaults to ALL of them: /articles/me returns published articles only, so a drafts-only account looks empty through it. |
| devto_create_articleA | Create an article. Creates a DRAFT unless you explicitly pass published: true — publishing is a real, immediate, public action and should be a decision rather than a default. |
| devto_update_articleA | Edit an existing article. Omitted fields are left alone; the publish state is never changed here — use devto_publish_article or devto_unpublish_article for that. |
| devto_publish_articleA | Publish an existing draft. This makes it publicly visible immediately. Kept as its own tool rather than a field on devto_update_article so that editing a typo can never change an article's publish state by accident. |
| devto_unpublish_articleA | Take a published article down. It becomes a draft again rather than being deleted — Forem has no delete-article endpoint at all, so nothing here can destroy an article. |
| devto_get_analyticsA | Author analytics. All eight reports Forem publishes are available; totals and past_day need no date range. |
