Arc Free Skills tools (18, 1 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
compare_modelsReturn exact added/removed/modified records by stable ID; no semantic judgment.
export_artifactwrite actionCreate a NEW local JSON/CSV/XLSX/Markdown/text output. Existing files never overwritten.
get_skillLoad one task's instructions and reference IDs. The host performs its AI reasoning.
get_task_artifactResolve a saved result file for an explicit host-open action within the workspace.
import_requirementsMap source fields to a proposal; optional proposal_path saves ALL rows to a new JSON file.
import_task_inputCopy an explicitly chosen file into the workspace (8 MiB max), without overwriting.
inspect_fileInventory format, sheets, columns, counts and extraction warnings inside the workspace.
load_modelRead an entire local exchange model or import proposal JSON, bounded to 2 MiB.
open_task_benchOpen the local task picker with all 100 skills and saved task results. No Arc login.
prepare_taskSave selected evidence and return a prompt for the host AI; does not run an AI.
read_fileRead bounded source records/text; offsets count records or text lines. Follow next_offset.
read_referenceRead a shared engineering guide by ID (e.g. engineering-model, standards, verification).
read_taskRead the saved evidence, handoff prompt and actual results for one local task.
save_task_resultSave actual host-AI findings once; complete/partial are analysis status, not approval.
search_skillsFind engineering tasks by words/category; empty query lists available skills.
trace_relationshipsTrace recorded model paths with explicit depth/path limits; not impact likelihood.
validate_modelValidate the local engineering exchange schema, endpoint rules, IDs and cycles.
verify_taskReject changed source files or already completed tasks before reasoning/save.
