Generate a new Cognitive Workbench tool. Supports two modes:
tool.py + Skill.md, written to src/tools-staging/{name}/ for review.requirements text becomes the Skill.md body. Written directly to src/tools/{name}/ and hot-registered immediately.name: Tool name (used as directory and action type, e.g. bluesky-instructions)description: One-line description for the tool catalogrequirements: For python tools: full specification. For instruction tools: the instructional content that becomes the tool output.tool_type: "python" (default) or "instruction"Success: summary with file paths. For python tools, includes promotion command.
Failure: reason (syntax error, LLM failure, name conflict).
Python tools:
tool.py and runs py_compile to catch syntax errorssrc/tools-staging/{name}/ for reviewmv to src/tools/, restartInstruction tools:
src/tools/{name}/Limits: Only one create-tool call allowed per planner session.
Create an instruction tool from research results:
{"type":"create-tool","name":"bluesky-instructions","description":"Instructions for retrieving Bluesky engagement metrics via public API","requirements":"Use fetch-text to call https://public.api.bsky.app/xrpc/app.bsky.actor.getProfile?actor={HANDLE} for profile metrics and app.bsky.feed.getAuthorFeed for post engagement. No auth required.","tool_type":"instruction","out":"$result"}
Generate a new Python tool:
{"type":"create-tool","name":"post-bluesky","description":"Post text to Bluesky social network","requirements":"Use atproto library. Read BLUESKY_HANDLE and BLUESKY_PASSWORD from env. Accept 'text' parameter with post content (max 300 chars). Return success/failure with post URI if successful.","out":"$result"}
Fetch standardized financial statements (income, balance sheet, cash flow, earnings, company overview) for a ticker from Alpha Vantage. Returns combined annual+quarterly JSON for analysis.
Aim the ChatterBot head to find and center a target in view — the user, a person, an object, an animal. Runs a closed visual loop (capture, judge where the target is, nudge pan/tilt, repeat) until the target is centered, or reports it could not find the target after searching. Use when the user says point at me, look at me, turn to face someone, find the cat, center on the person. For a one-off snapshot without re-aiming use camera-capture; for a manual fixed angle use head-move.
Capture a still photo from the ChatterBot head camera. The captured frame is attached to your own visual input, so you can SEE it and answer questions about what is in view — whether the user is present, whether there is a cat, what the scene looks like. The camera rides the pan/tilt head, so it shows whatever the head is currently aimed at; aim first with head-move if needed. To also show the photo to the user on screen, follow with the display tool (the observation includes a ready <img> URL). Use when the user asks what you see, to take a picture or snapshot, or to check whether something or someone is in view.
Move the ChatterBot head — aim the pan/tilt camera or play an expressive gesture. The bot is a stationary companion head; this points its gaze, it does NOT drive or navigate. Use when the user asks you to look somewhere, turn toward/away, look up/down, re-center, or nod/shake/scan. Angles are degrees 0-180 with 90 centered (pan 0=full right, 180=full left; tilt 0=down, 180=up, mounting-dependent). Give pan and/or tilt for absolute aim, OR a gesture (not both). Returns the confirmed pose once the head settles.
Return one genuine saying of Ramana Maharshi, drawn verbatim from his recorded talks, with source attribution. Use when delivering an authentic Ramana quote with attribution — not a paraphrase or a synthesized reflection. The returned text is a raw quote; add your own brief framing before presenting it.
Generate an original image from a text description, locally (Bonsai-Image 4B, ternary-quantized, on a long-lived studio server). Use when the user wants a picture, illustration, avatar, or face created from a description that does not already exist on the web. For existing photos of real things, prefer image search instead; for simple diagrams or line drawings, prefer authoring inline SVG.
