Apps

Live apps an assistant builds, reading and writing your data as you use them.

7 tools — 3 read, 4 write.

ToolWhat it does
create_appwriteBuild a live app: agent-authored UI that reads and writes org data through a permission-gated bridge.
delete_appwritePermanently delete an app, its version history and its logs.
get_appreadGet an app's source, declared manifest and version by id.
get_app_sharingreadGet what an app is allowed to do — its declared manifest, plus how many of those entries read and how many write.
list_appsreadList the apps in this organization that you can open.
rollback_appwritePut an app back to its previous version.
update_appwriteRebuild an app: replace its code and its declared reach in one step, keeping the same id, URL and sharing.

Calling these

Over MCP, find one with search_tools, then run it with execute_tool. Over REST, POST /api/capabilities/<tool> with the arguments as the JSON body. Either way, fetch the input schema for the tool you're about to call rather than guessing — get_tool_schema over MCP, or GET /api/capabilities?name=<tool> over REST.

See How the API works for auth, errors and the shared envelope.
