Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| respec_list_profilesA | Lists repo-local ReSpec MCP profiles discovered from respec-mcp.config.json and respec-mcp/profiles/*.json. |
| respec_scaffoldC | Creates a ReSpec source document from a repo-local profile and status-specific template. Paths must stay within the configured repo root. |
| respec_preflightA | Fast policy checks against the source file without rendering: required sections, required links, forbidden phrases, allowed statuses. Use this before edits to catch policy violations cheaply. |
| respec_validateC | Runs ReSpec rendering via Puppeteer and returns render diagnostics plus post-render compliance results. Does not write output. |
| respec_buildC | Renders a ReSpec source file to static HTML using the resolved repo-local profile, writes the output, and returns compliance results. |

Scored across 5 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: build renders output, list_profiles discovers profiles, preflight checks policies, scaffold creates source, validate runs diagnostics. No overlap.
All tools follow the consistent pattern 'respec_verb' with snake_case naming (e.g., respec_build, respec_list_profiles).
5 tools is well-scoped for the ReSpec domain, covering creation, checking, building, and validation without unnecessary extras.
The tool surface covers the full lifecycle: source creation (scaffold), policy checks (preflight), rendering (build, validate), and configuration discovery (list_profiles).
