Context Cost
This is the approximate number of tokens consumed each time the server's tools are loaded into a model's context. Higher counts reduce the attention available for other tasks.

Tool inventory
Tools (20)
🟢directory_capabilities
What the directory is, who it is for (small vetted software teams for digital projects, especially ones rooted in the physical world), how pricing works (0% of the project; €30 + VAT from each side only to meet, charged once both accept a time), and the rule that the human stays the principal.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢list_open_briefs(status, tangible)
The public briefs: open ones looking for a team, ones in vetting, and the archive of delivered projects with budget, sector and delivery team. Anonymised server-side. Filter by status or to tangible-world projects only.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"status": {
"type": "string",
"enum": [
"open",
"vetting",
"executed"
]
},
"tangible": {
"type": "boolean"
}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢preview_teams
Two anonymous, vetted teams as specimens (rotating daily) and the size of the supply — never the whole board. The board is brief-first: the teams that fit a project are listed only against a draft brief. Names and members are revealed only after a mutual €30-per-side handshake.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢match_brief(brief, title, language)
Match a draft brief (80–20000 characters) against the real, eligible anonymous teams: only teams the brief matches come back, with reasons and the defaults inferred from the brief. Same derivation and matcher as publishing, stores nothing, calls no LLM. Ends with a "Start this brief" link that opens the guided flow prefilled.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"brief": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The draft brief, markdown or plain text"
},
"title": {
"type": "string"
},
"language": {
"type": "string",
"description": "ISO 639-1 language the team must speak"
}
},
"required": [
"brief"
],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢brief_rules
The rule catalogue a brief is scored against before teams see it: ids, labels, weights and the acceptance threshold that decides whether a brief publishes.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢read_profile
The signed-in person's own directory profile: job role, years of experience, languages, rated skills, hourly rate and verification state.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"required": [],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢read_my_teams
The signed-in person's teams: key (teamKey), name, and the facts the system derives rather than stores (members = confirmed people; rate = blended from members' rates unless the team sets an override; languages from members unless set); each team's profile (based, remote, availability, shipped work), open and matching brief counts, and a checklist of what pitching and the public board require, each marked met or missing.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"required": [],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢read_my_pitches
The signed-in person's pitches and bookings on both sides: applications sent by their teams (with handshake and booking state) and the anonymous pitches received on their own briefs.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"required": [],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢read_brief(briefId)
One public brief in full, markdown body included, by its id (briefId).
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"briefId": {
"type": "integer",
"minimum": 1,
"maximum": 1000000000000
}
},
"required": [
"briefId"
],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢read_booking(bookingId)
One booking by its id (bookingId): the proposed slots, its state, and which side the signed-in person is on.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"bookingId": {
"type": "integer",
"minimum": 1,
"maximum": 1000000000000
}
},
"required": [
"bookingId"
],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢read_pitchable_briefs
For each of the signed-in person's teams, the open briefs that team can still pitch on: not yet pitched, pitch slots left, and a language match.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"required": [],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢read_invoices(identity, identities, from, to, limit)
The signed-in person's past invoices with their PDF and document links (pdfUrl / documentUrl). Without filters it covers every billing identity of the person (personal VAT plus companies they own or administer); each invoice is tagged with its identity {kind, id, label, vatMasked}. identity ("all", "personal" or "org:<organisationId>") or identities (several of "personal" / "org:<organisationId>") narrow by identity; from/to (YYYY-MM-DD, inclusive) narrow by date; limit caps the count (1–50).

}🟡propose_brief_draft(title, markdown, answers, summary)
A proposed update to the person's local brief draft: title, markdown, and/or per-rule answers. Accepting it fills the brief editor; nothing is published. The whole proposal is limited to 64,000 UTF-8 bytes. Stores a proposal only. Nothing happens until the person confirms it on welance.com/directory; the result includes the review link.

}
},
"required": [
"summary"
],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟡propose_brief_publish(title, markdown, language, summary)
A proposal to publish a brief (title, markdown, optional language) to the board. On confirmation the server's live score gate decides whether it publishes; publishing emails a one-time link and signs no one in. The whole proposal is limited to 64,000 UTF-8 bytes. Stores a proposal only. Nothing happens until the person confirms it on welance.com/directory; the result includes the review link.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",

"summary"
],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟡propose_profile_update(entity, teamKey, memberKey, organisationId, changes, ...)
Proposed field changes to one entity. entity "person": the signed-in person's own profile (job_role, years_experience, langs, skills, hourly_rate). entity "member" + teamKey + memberKey: a confirmed colleague on one of the person's teams (job_role, years_experience, langs, hourly_rate; skills are rated only by their owner). entity "team" + teamKey: intro, based, remote, availability, langs, shipped, hourly. entity "organisation" + organisationId: website, description of an organisation the person owns or administers (descriptive only; it verifies nothing). Skills: changes[{field:"skills", value:[{name, rating 1–10}]}] adds or re-rates (an existing name takes the new rating); removeSkills lists skill names to remove. Languages: addLangs / removeLangs take two-letter codes; alternatively a langs change carries the complete new list (not both). Scalars: changes[{field, value}]; hourly_rate is EUR/h, 10–2000; team hourly overrides the rate blended from members' rates, and null restores the blend; team size is not a field (it is the confirmed member count). Team shipped: value lists entries to add, each {title, url, desc}; existing entries are kept; removeShipped lists titles or links to remove. inferred=true marks a value derived from evidence rather than stated by the person; hourly rate, availability, languages and skill ratings are rejected when inferred. Each changed field becomes a separate card the person approves. Stores a proposal only. Nothing happens until the person confirms it on welance.com/directory; the result includes the review link.
