Every tool is annotated, so a client can tell them apart without reading this page. Read never changes anything. Write creates. Destructive modifies or deletes.
Screens
| Tool | ||
|---|---|---|
screen_list | Read | Every screen with status, hardware info, and sync state |
screen_get | Read | One screen by UUID |
Screens are read-only. There is no tool to pair, update, disable, or delete a screen, so an assistant can tell you a screen is offline but cannot act on it.
Assets
| Tool | ||
|---|---|---|
asset_list | Read | Every asset with type, status, and metadata |
asset_get | Read | One asset by UUID |
asset_create | Write | From a URL: web page, image, or video |
asset_update | Destructive | Title, JavaScript injection, headers |
asset_delete | Destructive | By UUID |
asset_create takes a URL rather than a file, so an assistant adds content by pointing at it.
Asset groups
| Tool | ||
|---|---|---|
asset_group_list | Read | The folders in your content library |
asset_group_create | Write | |
asset_group_update | Destructive | |
asset_group_delete | Destructive | Also deletes every asset in the group |
asset_group_delete is not the same as deleting a folder in the dashboard, which leaves the content and moves it to the root. Through MCP, deleting a group deletes what is in it.
Playlists
| Tool | ||
|---|---|---|
playlist_list | Read | |
playlist_create | Write | |
playlist_update | Destructive | |
playlist_delete | Destructive |
Playlist items
| Tool | ||
|---|---|---|
playlist_item_list | Read | Everything in a playlist |
playlist_item_create | Write | Add an asset to a playlist |
playlist_item_update | Destructive | Duration and position |
playlist_item_delete | Destructive | Remove an item |
Labels
| Tool | ||
|---|---|---|
label_list | Read | |
label_create | Write | |
label_update | Destructive | |
label_delete | Destructive | |
label_link_screen | Write | Attach a label to a screen |
label_unlink_screen | Destructive | |
label_link_playlist | Write | Attach a label to a playlist |
label_unlink_playlist | Destructive |
The link tools are how an assistant changes what plays where, since screens themselves are read-only. See Labels.
Shared playlists
| Tool | ||
|---|---|---|
shared_playlist_list | Read | |
shared_playlist_create | Write | Share a playlist with another workspace |
shared_playlist_delete | Destructive | Unshare it |
There is no update: a share either exists or it does not.
Edge apps
| Tool | ||
|---|---|---|
edge_app_list | Read | |
edge_app_list_settings | Read | The settings an app declares |
edge_app_list_instances | Read | Configured instances of an app |
edge_app_publish_from_html | Destructive | Publish HTML as an app, install it, and deploy |
Apart from publishing from HTML, edge apps are read-only through MCP. Building and deploying an app from source is a CLI job.
What has no tool at all
Screen settings, pairing, workspace members, integrations, notifications, and billing. Those are dashboard or API work.
