Tool reference

The 16 tools on https://mcp.motoradvisor.app/mcp, exactly as the server advertises them to a fully entitled account. Schemas are derived from the server's TypeScript types and this reference is generated from the same definitions — it cannot drift from what the server enforces. An account without a licensed agreement discovers the same tools with a gate notice prefixed to the description (see Authentication › Entitlements). The machine-readable original is at /dev/tools.json.

Vehicle data

ToolAccessSummary
resolve_vehicleRead-onlyResolve a VIN or year/make/model to the MOTOR vehicle identity every other tool needs.
list_contentRead-onlyList content summaries — maintenance, labor times, TSBs, specifications — for a resolved vehicle.
get_content_detailRead-onlyFetch the full detail for one content item found via list_content.
service_advisor_lookupRead-onlyThe one-call answer: due maintenance, candidate labor with pricing, TSBs, and specs for a vehicle.

Repair economics

ToolAccessSummary
assess_repair_economicsRead-onlyWeigh a quoted repair against the vehicle's worth and return an economic band — with the Black Book trade-in range for licensed shop accounts.
get_vehicle_valueRead-onlyConfirm the valuation provider knows the vehicle — coverage and corroboration, with the trade-in range for licensed shop accounts.

Billing

ToolAccessSummary
issue_invoiceWrite · account-scopedIssue a real, payable invoice from the authenticated account's shop and get back a pay link.
check_invoice_statusRead-only · account-scopedCheck one invoice, or sweep every unpaid invoice for the shop — the receivables question.

Notifications

ToolAccessSummary
create_quote_snapshotWrite · account-scoped · server-pricedTurn a completed labor selection into the shop's quote snapshot and get the quoteId the send tool takes.
check_quote_statusRead-only · account-scopedWhere a quote stands with the customer — decision, expiry, and whether the message actually arrived.
void_quoteWrite · account-scopedRetire one of the shop's own quotes — a stale approval can never be billed once it is voided.
send_quote_notificationWrite · account-scoped · consent-gatedSend the customer their quote-approval link — on the channels they consented to, and no others.
send_invoice_notificationWrite · account-scoped · consent-gatedSend the customer the payment link for an open invoice — on the channels they consented to, and no others.
capture_consentWrite · account-scopedRecord a customer's notification consent at the counter — the record every send tool requires.

Jobs

ToolAccessSummary
get_jobRead-only · account-scopedOne job's durable spine — board stage, linked quote summaries, and the invoice by reference.
list_jobsRead-only · account-scopedThe shop's job board, most recently updated first — same composed shape as get_job, optional stage filter.

Every MOTOR-facing tool is read-only. The billing and notification tools are account-scoped: the shop resolves from the verified token, never from input — and send_quote_notification takes no destination at all, so consent records are the only reachable addresses.
