Application tool reference

Discover the connected server’s tools before use. Tool availability and successful operation depend on the running application, loaded content, active mode, and licensed features.

Application-tool arguments are strings, including numbers and booleans such as "true", "10", and "0.5". Follow each tool’s discovered schema for required and optional arguments. The Variable Exposer tools use their own schemas.

Libraries, models, and States

Tool	Use
list_libraries / select_library	Discover and choose a model or background library; selection changes browsing.
list_library_models / load_model	Discover source assets and load one by library asset ID or exact unique name.
list_loaded_models / select_model	Discover scene instances and select one for runtime controls.
get_model	Read visibility, transforms, selection, and locks.
set_model_visibility	Show or hide a loaded model, subject to normal visibility rules.
set_model_transform	Change position, rotation, or scale; use absolute or relative mode.
delete_model	Remove a scene instance; the source library file is retained.
list_model_states / set_model_state	Discover State groups/options and apply one; check selected-option readback.
get_model_animation	Sample playback clocks without changing playback.

Camera and XR

Tool	Use
get_camera	Read the desktop camera pose and lens.
set_camera_view	Frame a model from one of six model-axis views.
frame_model	Begin fitting a model along the current viewing direction.
move_camera / rotate_camera	Move, look around, or orbit the desktop camera.
set_camera_fov	Set the vertical perspective field of view.
get_xr_mode / set_xr_mode	Read, enter, or exit XR and inspect transition state.

The camera controls require desktop mode. See views and XR for positioning and capture behavior.

Runtime UI and screenshots

Tool	Use
list_windows / show_window	Discover runtime panels and open one, optionally selecting a settings section.
hide_window	Hide a panel or all; behavior follows the active interface layout.
show_library	Show models or backgrounds thumbnails.
list_ui_scrolls / scroll_ui	Discover visible scroll areas and scroll a current area ID.
capture_screenshot	Return an application image preview and optionally save a PNG.

Backgrounds, graphics, and Turntable

Tool	Use
list_backgrounds / set_background	Discover and load an environment by returned ID or exact unique name.
get_environment / set_environment	Read supported settings and adjust one within its returned range.
get_graphics_options / set_graphics_option	Discover supported graphics toggles and change one with actual readback.
get_turntable	Read assignment, playback, angle, speed, and availability.
assign_model_to_turntable	Assign a loaded model; inspect accepted and confirmed.
release_turntable_model	Remove the assignment while keeping the model loaded.
set_turntable	Set play, reverse, pause, angle, or speed. MCP speed values use degrees per second, from 0 to 30.

Networked assignment and release can remain pending after acceptance. Read get_turntable until the actual assignment matches the request. Pause before setting an angle when you need stable readback.
