  • request_ruleRequest a new Code Auditor rule.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "request_rule" says "request": a word for a change.
    • The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Request a new Code Auditor rule. Call lookup_rule or explain_symptom first to confirm no existing rule covers it. Provide a minimal example that should be flagged and a corrected example that should not. Reduce both to the smallest code that shows the difference, and remove secrets and proprietary identifiers. Returns a receipt id.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "explain_symptom" says "explain": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Map a natural-language symptom (e.g. 'my app is slow', 'hardcoded password', 'infinite react loop') to the relevant Code Auditor rule(s) and their fixes. Call this when a user describes a problem rather than naming a rule.

    • The name "get_install_commands" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Return the exact install commands for Code Auditor for a given AI agent. Call this when a user asks how to install Code Auditor, or asks for the command for a specific agent (claude, cursor, codex, gemini, agents, zcode, or all).

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Return the rule kind, description, default severity, detection method, and threshold for a given Code Auditor rule or analyzer. Call this when a user asks what a specific rule does (e.g. import-ban, sql-injection, n+1).

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.
