| nexus_list_operationsA | Find documented Nexus Dashboard Infrastructure or Manage API operations. Use this before an unfamiliar read or change. |
| nexus_describe_operationA | Show the exact documented path parameters, query parameters, and JSON request body schema for a Nexus Dashboard operation. |
| nexus_readA | Call a documented read-only (GET) Nexus Dashboard API operation. It never changes configuration. |
