## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ANAKIN_IO_CREATE_MONITOR` | Create Monitor | Create a recurring page or site monitor with optional structured extraction, browser rendering, and change alerts. Active scheduled checks consume credits. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_DELETE_MONITOR` | Delete Monitor | Permanently delete a monitor and all of its retained history. Use only for explicit cleanup because this action is destructive and cannot be undone. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_EXECUTE_WIRE_ACTION` | Execute Wire Action | Start a parameterized asynchronous Wire action by action ID, optionally using an existing target-site credential, and return a job ID. The selected action may read, create, update, submit, or delete target-site data, and its execution consumes the advertised credits. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_GET_AGENTIC_SEARCH` | Get Agentic Search | Check an agentic research job and return its generated summary and structured data when complete. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_GET_AI_VISIBILITY_SEARCH` | Get AI Visibility Search | Check an AI visibility search and return its synthesis plus each engine's answer, verdict, latency, credit use, or error. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_GET_CRAWL` | Get Crawl | Check a crawl job and return page content, progress, timing, and errors. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_GET_MONITOR` | Get Monitor | Get one monitor's current configuration, schedule, and state by ID. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_GET_MONITOR_SNAPSHOT_CONTENT` | Get Monitor Snapshot Content | Fetch the stored full-page content for a monitor snapshot identified by a detected change. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_GET_SCRAPE_JOB` | Get Scrape Job | Check a single or batch scrape job and return requested content or per-URL results when complete. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_GET_SITE_MAP` | Get Site Map | Check a site-map job and return discovered internal and external links with timing and errors. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_GET_WIRE_CATALOG` | Get Wire Catalog | Get one Wire website catalog with its executable actions, dynamic parameter schemas, authentication modes, and credit costs. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_GET_WIRE_JOB` | Get Wire Job | Check a Wire job and return processing guidance, completed structured data or file metadata, credit use, execution time, or failure details. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_LIST_AI_VISIBILITY_SOURCES` | List AI Visibility Sources | List the AI engine slugs currently available for AI visibility searches. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_LIST_MONITOR_CHANGES` | List Monitor Changes | List up to 200 recent detected changes for a monitor, newest first, including snapshot IDs and structured diffs. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_LIST_MONITORS` | List Monitors | List all monitors owned by the connected account with their schedules, state, and configuration. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_LIST_WIRE_JOBS` | List Wire Jobs | List Wire execution history one page at a time, including job status and summary statistics when available. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_RESOLVE_WIRE_ACTIONS` | Resolve Wire Actions | Find Wire actions by intent and optional catalog, category, or authentication filters, including required parameters and credit cost. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_RUN_MONITOR_NOW` | Run Monitor Now | Queue an immediate check for an existing monitor; the run may consume credits. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_SCRAPE_URL` | Scrape URL | Scrape one URL synchronously when possible, optionally using a browser, extraction schema, saved session, or page actions. Browser actions can click, type, or press keys and may modify an authenticated target site. A timed-out call returns a non-terminal job ID for Get Scrape Job. The scrape may consume credits. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_SEARCH_WEB` | Search Web | Run a synchronous AI-powered web search and return ranked pages with titles, snippets, and dates. The search consumes credits. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_SET_MONITOR_STATE` | Set Monitor State | Pause or resume a monitor; resuming can optionally set a new expiration time. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_START_AGENTIC_SEARCH` | Start Agentic Search | Start a multi-stage web research job from a natural-language prompt and return its job ID for status checks. The research job consumes credits. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_START_AI_VISIBILITY_SEARCH` | Start AI Visibility Search | Ask selected AI engines a query and return a search ID for collecting per-engine answers and synthesis. Each selected engine may consume credits. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_START_BATCH_SCRAPE` | Start Batch Scrape | Start a parallel scrape of 1-10 URLs and return a job ID for Get Scrape Job. Each URL may consume credits. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_START_CRAWL` | Start Crawl | Start a bounded multi-page crawl and return a job ID for Get Crawl. Crawled pages may consume credits. |
| `ANAKIN_IO_START_SITE_MAP` | Start Site Map | Start a bounded site link-discovery job and return a job ID for Get Site Map. The job may consume credits. |
