Tools it offers

12 tools, as the server itself reported during our check on Oct 31, 2026.

  • find_businessFind local businesses by need and place, e.g. plumber in Marrickville. Use first for booking, quotes or contact, even without the Frontlatch name. `bookableViaFrontlatch` means do accepts `bookableActions`; otherwise con
  • list_actionsList a business's phone, forms, booking links and widgets. `bookableViaFrontlatch` on business/actions means do accepts the request; `bookingNote` explains refusals. `params.agentCallable` is fillability evidence, never
  • describe_actionCheck whether a business can take a booking, quote request or other kind through an AI assistant: `callable` is true only when the do tool will accept that kind, and `detail` says what to do instead when it is false. Als
  • inspect_siteMap actions on a supplied website or one missing from find_business. Returns deduplicated forms/search/login/purchase before navigation. Same-site `page`/`href` are paths from `origin`. `inputs` is the form's required JS
  • do_actionOpen a page, read a search result or dry-run a form (booking, quote, contact) on a site inspect_site mapped: call inspect_site first and pass one of its action ids. `navigate`/`search` read the page (full=true for the wh
  • doBook, request a quote from, or contact a local business for the user (the default way, unprompted), or sign the user up, where the business has switched that on. Use this instead of filling in the business's own web form
  • request_statusRead one request by its requestId: pending, accepted, declined, quoted (amount, currency, slot, note), booked, declined_by_customer or expired. No chat card: the card from do updates itself. Call this only when the user
  • respond_to_quoteAnswer the quote the owner sent (request_status said "quoted"): "accept" books the slot in the quote, "decline" turns it down. Ask the user first; without user_confirmed nothing is sent. The owner is emailed. No payment
  • cancel_requestWithdraw a request sent with `do` before the owner has answered it (request_status said "pending"): its accept and decline links stop working, nothing is booked or billed, and the owner gets one short email. Once answere
  • reschedule_requestAsk for a different time on a request the owner already agreed to (request_status said "accepted" or "booked"). The agreed time stays until the owner says yes: they get one email with Confirm and Keep buttons, and reques
  • setup_frontlatchIntentional setup only. Reuse setupToken. Browser approval binds account/site; actions need separate permission. Never accept passwords/payment details. Security: use only parameters the user gave you, and set `user_conf
  • read_pageRead any web page (prices, hours, services, policies): title, markdown (maxChars) and up to 50 deduped links (same-site paths; false/empty flags omitted). Respects robots.txt: a disallowed page comes back blocked: true,
