object
ToolId — dotted namespace (e.g. acme.verify-citation).
The tool’s project: every version of a tool is in the one project. Absent when the runtime doesn’t record it: a pack kindgi dev serves from disk, or a runtime before Kindgi 0.1.6.
JSON Schema (Draft 2020-12) for the tool input.

Semantic marker: true when this tool causes observable side effects (writes state, calls external APIs with mutations, sends messages). Read-only tools set false. Absent defaults to true. Consumed by the HITL default classifier — a read-only tool passes straight through, a mutating tool asks on first use.
true: in a run no person started (one whose startedBy isn’t person), every call of this tool waits for a person’s yes, whatever the agent’s approval rules say, and a flow’s tool step that calls it is refused. A webhook trigger, a schedule or a mail trigger whose toolsAllowedUnattended names the tool (a project admin’s to set) lifts that, in its own runs only. A tool that uses a person’s connection, reads included, counts as declaring it. In a run a mail started, so does a tool that isn’t mutating: false, and one that uses the run’s own mailbox. Absent means false.
true when the tool may make its run wait for another system’s answer: each call gets a wait token, hands its link to that system, and answers pause; the system’s answer, valid against output, becomes the call’s result. The run waits at most 24 days (24 hours by default) and fails the call when the time passes. Only a pack tool with a handler can pause: not one with a declarative spec, nor an MCP tool. Absent means false.
true when the tool’s results are text from outside that nobody checked, such as a mail someone sent: an agent reads each result as data, not instructions, in that turn and in every later turn’s history. Absent means false.
Isolation posture the runtime enforces around the handler. Optional additive field.
Sandbox-enforced resource caps at dispatch. Optional additive field.
object
Typed discriminated needs (env / secrets / config / capabilities / bindings / connections). Optional additive field.

Accounts at other apps the tool acts with, by the tool’s own name for each (mail). The runtime resolves them per call into the context’s connections.
object
object
The app’s entry id: google, github.
The entry’s permission keys the call needs: gmail.send.
Whose connection: person, the run’s person (the one it acts for, who started it or owns its trigger); company, the tenant’s.
Declarative HTTP-invocation spec. Attached to ToolManifest.spec under the discriminant kind: 'http'. The runtime Tool.handler is synthesized by the ‘http’ spec synthesizer to perform URL-template substitution, secret-ref resolution via ToolContext.resolveSecret, and the outbound fetch. All fields serialize cleanly to JSON.
object
URL template with {param} placeholders substituted from the tool’s input at invoke time.

A connection the tool declares in needsSpec.connections, by its name there: sent as Authorization: Bearer <access token>.
object
Wall-clock timeout in ms. Default 30000.
When true (default), the response body is parsed as JSON before returning to the invoker.
object
Present only on an unregistered version: a retired tool (every version unregistered) as GET /v1/tools?includeRetired=true lists it.
Where each secret it names is read, by name: recorded by the server when it was registered, never sent by a caller. null: none usable (the registrant administers no scope the secret could be read at), until an admin records it again: a tool by publishing a new version, an MCP endpoint by unregistering it and registering it again. Absent on items registered before it was recorded, or on a runtime without a secrets store.
