Analyse data quality for a table — completeness, duplicates, stale records

GlideQuery-style fluent query builder. Supports select, where, aggregate (COUNT/AVG/SUM/MIN/MAX), orderBy, limit, and groupBy. Returns records or aggregate results. Example: { table: "incident", where: [["active","=",true],["priority","<",3]], select: ["number","short_description"], limit: 10 }

Execute multiple ServiceNow REST API operations in a single HTTP call. Reduces round-trips by 50-70%. Each operation specifies method, URL path, and optional body. Max 50 operations per batch.

Execute a server-side script on the ServiceNow instance (Background Script). Supports GlideRecord, GlideQuery, GlideAggregate, and all server-side APIs. Returns the script output. Use for complex queries that cannot be expressed via REST. REQUIRES WRITE_ENABLED=true.

Run now-sdk query <table> — a read-only Table REST API query executed via the ServiceNow SDK CLI against your authenticated instance (no browser). New in @servicenow/sdk 4.8. Ideal while authoring Fluent code: resolve sys_ids, inspect table schemas, check existing records, read choice values. Example: { table: "sys_user_role", query: "name=admin", fields: ["sys_id","name"], limit: 1 }

Report the installed @servicenow/sdk (now-sdk) version and whether it meets the version NowAIKit tracks features against (currently 4.10.1). Returns an upgrade hint when out of date.

Run npx @servicenow/sdk explain <topic> to get live SDK documentation on a topic — always current API signatures, not training-data guesses. Returns explanations of Fluent APIs, types, patterns, and best practices. Known topics include: GlideQuery, table API, scoped app, now.config.json, keys.ts, metadata, Record, Now.del, Now.attach, DataLookup, RestMessage, Alias, AliasTemplate, RetryPolicy, Playbook, Flow, Subflow, CustomAction, TryCatch, DoInParallel, FlowStages, AiAgent, AiAgentWorkflow, roleMap, NowAssistSkillConfig, UiPolicy, DataPolicy, Form, InstanceScan, ServicePortal, ImportSet, override, StateModel, cicd.

Initialize a new ServiceNow fluent/now-sdk project. Runs npx @servicenow/sdk init. REQUIRES FLUENT_ENABLED=true and WRITE_ENABLED=true.

Build a ServiceNow fluent/now-sdk project. Runs npx @servicenow/sdk build. REQUIRES FLUENT_ENABLED=true and WRITE_ENABLED=true.

Validate a ServiceNow fluent/now-sdk project. Runs npx @servicenow/sdk validate. REQUIRES FLUENT_ENABLED=true.

Run ServiceNow CI/CD operations via the SDK (now-sdk cicd, new in @servicenow/sdk 4.10). Drive scoped-app install/publish and ATF test-suite runs from a promotion pipeline, outside the local build/install flow. REQUIRES FLUENT_ENABLED=true and WRITE_ENABLED=true.

Search the official ServiceNow product documentation (servicenow.com/docs) — API references (GlideRecord, GlideSystem, GlideAjax…), admin & developer guides, encoded-query operators, release notes. Returns ranked results with title, breadcrumb, URL, snippet, and a ref to read the full page with fetch_servicenow_doc. Use this to ground answers in current ServiceNow docs rather than memory. Read-only; uses the public docs site, not your instance.

Fetch the full readable text of a specific ServiceNow documentation page. Pass either the ref returned by search_servicenow_docs (fastest, exact) or a servicenow.com/docs page URL. Use after search_servicenow_docs to read a result in full. Read-only; only ServiceNow docs are reachable.

List Now Assist skill definitions (requires NOW_ASSIST_ENABLED)

Get a single Now Assist skill definition by sys_id (requires NOW_ASSIST_ENABLED)

Create a playbook definition with ordered steps that chain tool calls (requires NOW_ASSIST_ENABLED + WRITE_ENABLED)

Execute a playbook step by step, passing results forward through context (requires NOW_ASSIST_ENABLED). Supports dry_run.

List stored playbook definitions from sys_hub_action_type_definition

Discover a ServiceNow table schema and register dynamic CRUD tools for it. After discovery, new tools become available: dynamic_query_, dynamic_get_, dynamic_create_, dynamic_update_, dynamic_delete_. Schemas are cached for 30 minutes.

List every configuration artifact on a table — business rules, client scripts, UI policies, ACLs, UI actions, data policies, and dictionary fields — with per-type counts. Use it to see what depends on a table before changing or removing it. This is config/metadata impact, not CMDB CI impact. Each lane returns {count, records} or {error} if that table/plugin is unavailable.

Find where a table field is used — its dictionary entry plus any scripts (business rules, script includes, client scripts, UI actions, widgets) that mention the field name. Use it before renaming or removing a field. Script matches are substring (LIKE) hits, so expect false positives (comments, similarly-named symbols) and misses for dynamically-built references; treat results as candidates to review, not a definitive list.

Find what references a Script Include or named artifact — scans script-bearing config tables for textual use of the name. Use it before renaming or deleting a Script Include, Script Action, etc. Matches are substring (LIKE) hits, so treat them as candidates to review (false positives from comments/similar names; misses for dynamic references).

List the update sets that contain changes to an artifact (by name), so you know what is in-flight or already captured for promotion before you touch it.

Find scripts that read a system property (sys_properties) by name, plus the property record itself. Use it before changing or removing a property. Matches are substring (LIKE) hits — candidates to review, not definitive.

Local sync: list the artifact types (tables) that support pull/push to local files and which fields sync for each.
