name	walkeros-mcp-actions
description	Use when an AI agent calls walkerOS MCP tools from code (code execution / Code Mode, a Worker, or an app sandbox) to validate, simulate, bundle, or inspect flows and packages, and wants to filter large results in code instead of issuing many separate tool calls.

Calling walkerOS MCP Tools from Code

When to Use This Skill

You are an AI agent running inside a code-execution host, not issuing tool calls one at a time through the model. Examples:

• Claude Code in code-execution / "Code Mode"
• a Cloudflare Worker or other serverless sandbox
• an app's server-side sandbox that binds the walkerOS MCP transport

The pattern: bind the MCP transport once, call only the tools you need from code, filter the verbose structuredContent payload in code, and return only the distilled answer to the model. This suppresses tokens that the model never needs to see (full catalogs, per-destination simulation dumps) and avoids a chain of one-by-one tool calls.

This is the "Code Execution with MCP" / "Code Mode" pattern: treat MCP tools as functions you call in a sandbox, not as round-trips through the model context.

The Seven Pure Tools

These walkerOS MCP tools are pure and composable: same input, same output, no auth, no cloud side effects. Safe to call freely from code.

Tool (fully-qualified)	Purpose	Verbose output worth filtering
walkeros:flow_validate	Validate a flow or step config; return issues	small
walkeros:flow_simulate	Run a flow against an event, mock destination calls	yes (per-destination calls)
walkeros:flow_bundle	Bundle a flow config to a JS artifact	medium (bundle/meta)
walkeros:flow_examples	Fetch canonical flow/step examples	yes (many examples)
walkeros:package_search	Find packages by type/platform/keyword	yes (catalog)
walkeros:package_get	Read a package's schemas, hints, examples	yes (full schemas)
walkeros:diagnostics	Report MCP/CLI versions, app URL, reachability	small

To test an event against a flow, use walkeros:flow_simulate: it runs the event through the flow with destination calls mocked, so nothing leaves the sandbox. Do not use walkeros:flow_push for this (see below).

Always use the fully-qualified walkeros:<tool> name (Agent Skills best-practice) so the call is unambiguous when multiple MCP servers are bound.

Out of scope for this pattern

The eight cloud/auth/side-effect tools (walkeros:auth, walkeros:project_manage, walkeros:flow_manage, walkeros:deploy_manage, walkeros:secret_manage, walkeros:feedback, walkeros:flow_load, walkeros:flow_push) carry authentication, cloud state, or side effects. walkeros:flow_push in particular sends a real event to real destinations (real API calls to live endpoints), so calling it "freely" would produce real, duplicated sends; use walkeros:flow_simulate to test without sending. Do not drive these tools from this code-execution filtering pattern; they belong in an interactive, authorized session.

The Recommended Pattern

1. Bind the transport once. Connect to the walkerOS MCP server at the top of your script, reuse the client for every call.
2. Call only the tools you need. Don't enumerate; pick the minimal set.
3. Read structuredContent. Every tool returns an MCP envelope; the typed payload lives in structuredContent (the content text block is for humans).
4. Filter in code. Reduce verbose payloads to the few fields that answer the question.
5. Return the distilled answer. Hand the model one line, not the full dump.

// Pseudo-code in a code-execution host. `mcp` is the bound walkerOS client.
// (Typed `@walkeros/mcp-actions` wrappers are planned/forthcoming; until then
//  call the raw tools and read `structuredContent` yourself.)

const flow = await readFile('flow.json', 'utf8');

// 1. Validate first; bail with one line if the config is broken.
const v = await mcp.call('walkeros:flow_validate', {
  type: 'flow',
  input: flow,
});
if (!v.structuredContent.valid) {
  return `invalid flow: ${v.structuredContent.errors.length} error(s)`;
}

// 2. Simulate one event through the flow; output is verbose (every destination).
const sim = await mcp.call('walkeros:flow_simulate', {
  configPath: 'flow.json',
  event: 'product add',
});

// 3. Filter in code: keep only destinations that failed. The model never sees
//    the full per-destination call dump, only the distilled verdict.
const failed = Object.entries(sim.structuredContent.destinations)
  .filter(([, d]) => !d.received)
  .map(([name]) => name);


 failed.
  ? 
  : ;

The same shape applies to walkeros:package_search / walkeros:package_get (filter a catalog or a schema down to the one field the user asked about) and walkeros:flow_examples (pick the one matching example).

Responsibility Boundary

PII handling, secret redaction, and sandbox isolation are the execution host's responsibility, not walkerOS's: walkerOS MCP tools are pure functions over the config and event you pass them.
