Tools - Porter

All tools are read-only unless otherwise specified. Every tool except get_projects requires a project, given as either its ID or its exact name. Application arguments accept an app name or UUID, and cluster arguments accept a cluster ID, exact name, or vanity name. Start with get_projects to resolve the project, then get_applications or get_clusters from there.

Projects & Discovery

Tool	Description
`get_projects`	List the projects your account can access. Takes no arguments.
`get_applications`	List applications in a project.
`get_clusters`	List clusters in a project.

Applications

Tool	Description
`get_application`	Read an application’s configuration. Excludes variables, secrets, or environment groups.
`get_application_status`	Read an application’s current deployment status and conditions.
`get_application_revisions`	List an application’s revisions.
`get_application_metrics`	Read CPU, memory, and request metrics for an application.
`get_app_logs`	Read an application’s logs. Bearer tokens and secret-shaped values are redacted.
`get_notifications`	List a project’s notifications.

Clusters & Infrastructure

Tool	Description
`get_cluster_nodes`	List the nodes in a cluster.
`get_cluster_node_groups`	List the node groups in a cluster.
`get_cluster_pods`	List pods in a cluster, optionally filtered by namespace.
`get_cluster_pod`	Read a single pod’s spec. Excludes environment variables.
`get_load_balancers`	List load balancers for a cluster.
`get_node_group_metrics`	Read metrics for a node group.

Mutating tools

These tools can modify or redeploy your applications and may have unintended side effects. Review the agent’s plan before approving any call to create_app, update_application, or redeploy_application.

`create_app`

Create a new application. The behavior depends on which inputs you pass:

Input	Behavior
`image`	Deploys the prebuilt image directly. No pull request.
`source` + `build`	Creates the app on a placeholder image and opens a GitHub Actions pull request. Nothing real serves until that PR is merged.
`build` alone	Returns a `local_build_command` to run `porter apply` from the local repository.

image is mutually exclusive with source and build. Creation fails if an application with the same name already exists in the target project or cluster. Use update_application instead.

`update_application`

Update an application’s configuration. Defaults to a dry run, which validates the change and returns the resulting config without deploying. Set dry_run: false to deploy.

`redeploy_application`

Trigger an immediate redeploy of an application.
