Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| run_shellC | Run a PowerShell command on the user's machine. |
| gitA | Run a git command. args = e.g. 'status', 'log --oneline -10', 'commit -m "fix bug"' |
| read_fileC | Read the contents of a file on the user's machine. |
| write_fileB | Write or overwrite a file on the user's machine. After writing code, use run_file to execute it — do NOT also call run_code with the same code. |
| list_dirB | List files and folders in a directory. |
| edit_fileA | Edit a file by replacing old_text with new_text. Use this to fix errors instead of rewriting the whole file. |
| run_fileA | Run an already-existing file. Use this after write_file — avoids writing the code twice. Language is auto-detected from extension if not provided. |
| run_codeA | Execute a code snippet directly without saving to disk. Use for quick one-off runs. If you already wrote the code with write_file, use run_file instead to avoid writing twice. Supported: python, javascript, typescript, java, cpp, csharp, go, rust, ruby, php, r, kotlin, swift, matlab |
| run_pythonB | Execute Python code directly and return the output. |
| run_cppA | Compile and run C++ code. Returns compiler errors or program output. |
