Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
workday_healthcheckA

Round-trips a small public wd5.myworkday.com URL (/acme-corp/get-global-prefs.htmld?feature=doNotShowMobileAd) through the fetchproxy bridge and returns diagnostics: the bridge's role (host/peer/null), port, version, the elapsed round-trip time, and a plain-English hint distinguishing 'bridge never came up' from 'extension not connected' from 'real wd5.myworkday.com-side problem'. Call this when a real tool fails and you want to know which hop broke. Read-only, no auth required.

workday_get_appsA

List the Workday apps available on your home screen, each with a launchable task id. Use this to discover what you can read, then pass an app's taskId to workday_get_task to open it. Some apps share a generic launcher id; if one returns a near-empty page, open the app in your browser and pass that URL to workday_get_task instead. Read-only.

workday_open_appA

Open one of your Workday apps by name — "My Team Management", "Talent and Performance", "Time", "Absence", "Benefits and Pay", "Org Chart", "Total Rewards" — and read it, following the app down to the child cards that hold its real content. Most Workday app hubs return a near-empty shell on their own; this follows the links for you. Matched case-insensitively against your own app menu, so it works without knowing any task ids. Read-only.

workday_get_taskA

Fetch a Workday page (task or data card) by its path and return a structured, read-only view: title, current user, each section as label/value fields, navigable references (instance id + drill-in uri), and the page's related tasks + export links. The path is a Workday *.htmld endpoint — take it from a prior result's references[].uri or relatedTasks[].uri, or paste the URL of a Workday page you have open (SPA /d/... URLs are normalized automatically). Every request rides your signed-in Workday tab. Read-only; no data is mutated.

workday_get_org_chartA

Read the reporting chain around you: each person with their business title, location, report count, and a profileUri you can pass straight to workday_get_worker. Resolves the Org Chart app from your own app menu. Read-only.

workday_get_workerA

Read a worker's Workday profile and return the CATALOG of everything readable about them: sections (Job, Compensation, Benefits, Contact, Personal, Performance, Career, Feedback) each listing named, fetchable tasks. Pass a profileUri from workday_get_org_chart or any reference, or a bare worker id like 247$42. Then use workday_get_worker_task to open one by name. Shows only what your own Workday permissions already allow. Read-only.

workday_get_worker_taskA

Open a single named item from a worker's profile — "Compensation", "Job Details", "Performance Reviews", "Management Chain", "Benefits", "Goals", "Pay Change History", and so on. Matched case-insensitively against that worker's own task catalog; if it does not match, the error lists exactly what is available. Read-only.

workday_get_my_profileA

Read your own worker profile — the same catalog workday_get_worker returns, for yourself. Use it to find your pay, benefits, time off, goals, and feedback. Read-only.

workday_fetchA

GET any Workday data endpoint and return the RAW JSON with secrets redacted — the escape hatch for pages the typed tools do not model yet. Prefer workday_get_task (structured) when it works; reach for this to explore an unfamiliar page or to see fields the parser drops. Bare uris get .htmld appended and /d/ SPA paths are normalized. Read-only (GET only).

workday_graphqlA

Run a read-only GraphQL query against Workday's PEX surface (/wday/pex/graphql). This is the only route to surfaces that have no GET-able .htmld endpoint — notably the Inbox / "My Tasks" and global search. Workday does not publish these operations, so you supply the document; expect to iterate. mutation and subscription documents are REFUSED — this server is read-only — as are type-system (SDL) documents, whose definition boundaries cannot be tracked reliably.
