Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

chat

General chat and collaborative thinking partner for brainstorming, development discussion, getting second opinions, and exploring ideas. Use for ideas, validations, questions, and thoughtful explanations.

clink

Link a request to an external AI CLI (Gemini CLI, Qwen CLI, etc.) through Zen MCP to reuse their capabilities inside existing workflows.

thinkdeep

Performs multi-stage investigation and reasoning for complex problem analysis. Use for architecture decisions, complex bugs, performance challenges, and security analysis. Provides systematic hypothesis testing, evidence-based investigation, and expert validation.

planner

Breaks down complex tasks through interactive, sequential planning with revision and branching capabilities. Use for complex project planning, system design, migration strategies, and architectural decisions. Builds plans incrementally with deep reflection for complex scenarios.

consensus

Builds multi-model consensus through systematic analysis and structured debate. Use for complex decisions, architectural choices, feature proposals, and technology evaluations. Consults multiple models with different stances to synthesize comprehensive recommendations.

codereview

Performs systematic, step-by-step code review with expert validation. Use for comprehensive analysis covering quality, security, performance, and architecture. Guides through structured investigation to ensure thoroughness.

precommit

Validates git changes and repository state before committing with systematic analysis. Use for multi-repository validation, security review, change impact assessment, and completeness verification. Guides through structured investigation with expert analysis.

debug

Performs systematic debugging and root cause analysis for any type of issue. Use for complex bugs, mysterious errors, performance issues, race conditions, memory leaks, and integration problems. Guides through structured investigation with hypothesis testing and expert analysis.

secaudit

Performs comprehensive security audit with systematic vulnerability assessment. Use for OWASP Top 10 analysis, compliance evaluation, threat modeling, and security architecture review. Guides through structured security investigation with expert validation.

docgen

Generates comprehensive code documentation with systematic analysis of functions, classes, and complexity. Use for documentation generation, code analysis, complexity assessment, and API documentation. Analyzes code structure and patterns to create thorough documentation.

analyze

Performs comprehensive code analysis with systematic investigation and expert validation. Use for architecture, performance, maintainability, and pattern analysis. Guides through structured code review and strategic planning.

refactor

Analyzes code for refactoring opportunities with systematic investigation. Use for code smell detection, decomposition planning, modernization, and maintainability improvements. Guides through structured analysis with expert validation.

tracer

Performs systematic code tracing with modes for execution flow or dependency mapping. Use for method execution analysis, call chain tracing, dependency mapping, and architectural understanding. Supports precision mode (execution flow) and dependencies mode (structural relationships).

testgen

Creates comprehensive test suites with edge case coverage for specific functions, classes, or modules. Analyzes code paths, identifies failure modes, and generates framework-specific tests. Be specific about scope - target particular components rather than testing everything.

challenge

Prevents reflexive agreement by forcing critical thinking and reasoned analysis when a statement is challenged. Trigger automatically when a user critically questions, disagrees or appears to push back on earlier answers, and use it manually to sanity-check contentious claims.

apilookup

Use this tool automatically when you need current API/SDK documentation, latest version info, breaking changes, deprecations, migration guides, or official release notes. This tool searches authoritative sources (official docs, GitHub, package registries) to ensure up-to-date accuracy.

listmodels

Shows which AI model providers are configured, available model names, their aliases and capabilities.

version

Get server version, configuration details, and list of available tools.

Prompts

Interactive templates invoked by user choice

chat

Chat and brainstorm ideas

clink

Forward a request to a configured AI CLI (e.g., Gemini)

thinkdeeper

Step-by-step deep thinking workflow with expert analysis

planner

Break down complex ideas, problems, or projects into multiple manageable steps

consensus

Step-by-step consensus workflow with multi-model analysis

review

Perform a comprehensive code review

precommit

Step-by-step pre-commit validation workflow

debug

Debug an issue or error

secaudit

Comprehensive security audit with OWASP Top 10 coverage

docgen

Generate comprehensive code documentation with complexity analysis

analyze

Analyze files and code structure

refactor

Refactor and improve code structure

tracer

Trace code execution paths

testgen

Generate comprehensive tests

challenge

Challenge a statement critically without automatic agreement

apilookup

Look up the latest API or SDK information

listmodels

List available AI models

version

Show server version and system information

continue

Continue the previous conversation using the chat tool
