Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_dbatools_commandsB | Search and list dbatools commands. Filter by verb, noun, keyword, or risk level. |
| get_dbatools_command_helpA | Get the full normalized help for a specific dbatools command, including parameters and examples sourced from comment-based help. |
| invoke_dbatools_commandA | Execute a dbatools command via PowerShell and return structured JSON output. SAFETY: For any destructive or change command (Remove, Drop, Disable, Reset, etc.), always explain the consequences to the user and ask for explicit confirmation before running. Only proceed with confirm:true if the user has clearly confirmed their intent. Respect DBATOOLS_SAFE_MODE: never bypass safety checks. For any command that modifies or deletes data, double-check with the user before proceeding. Show the exact command and output for transparency. Non-readonly commands require confirm:true when safe mode is enabled. |
| check_dbatools_environmentA | Verify that PowerShell and the dbatools module are installed and report the help-index status. |
