skill_get

Read one Skill by its slug, with its playbook and its current revision.

Ask the agent to run a Skill, or to show you one. The agent reads the playbook and the current revision of that Skill.

Run the weekly budget review.

The agent finds the slug with skill_list when it does not know it, and then calls this tool. It does what the playbook says: it calls the AdCrunch tools that the playbook names, and it reports the result to you. The Skill gives the agent no new access, because each of those tools checks its own scope. Reuse a playbook walks the whole job.

Reference

Fetch a single ad-ops playbook (Skill) by its slug, returning the full instruction body and the current revision. Echo the revision back as base_revision when updating the Skill.

Failure codes

A failed call has isError set, and structuredContent.error holds one of these codes. Errors describes the shape of a failed call.

  • not_found
  • forbidden
  • invalid_request
  • internal_error

Scope

The token must hold skill:read. Auth & scopes lists each scope.

Annotations

A client reads these hints. A hint that the tool does not declare has the default value of the MCP specification.

  • Read-only. The tool changes nothing.
  • Closed world. The tool reads and writes the data of AdCrunch only.
