    Why it is in this group

    • The name "explain_rule" says "explain": a word for reading.
    • The input takes a statement or command to run (input.code), which can change anything it can reach.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Explain one EN 16931 / XRechnung / Peppol business rule by its code (e.g. BR-DE-15, BR-CO-10, PEPPOL-EN16931-R010): what it requires, why invoices typically break it, and how to fix it, with a link to the full page. Case does not matter. Schema findings (cvc-*) have no explanation.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "generate_invoice" says "generate": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Produce an XRechnung (`ubl` or `cii` XML) or a ZUGFeRD hybrid PDF (`zugferd`) from invoice data. Totals are computed server-side in decimal arithmetic, and the document is validated against the official rules before it is returned. Data the rules do not permit is refused with the broken rules and how to fix each. Needs the user's NormAPI account; each document counts against the monthly allowance (50 free).

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "validate_invoice" says "validate": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Check an XRechnung (UBL or CII XML) or a ZUGFeRD/Factur-X PDF against the official KoSIT rules. Returns the verdict, the rule set version, and every finding; each business-rule finding comes with a plain-language meaning, cause and fix. Send the XML as text in `xml`, or the PDF base64-encoded in `pdfBase64` — exactly one. Free, no account needed, 5 MB at most.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
