If you have run it, two minutes of your experience saves the next person an afternoon.

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

check_pack_health
Audit a mod list: not found, removed versions, deprecated, outdated vs latest, missing dependencies, dependency version conflicts, duplicates.
export_r2modman_profilewrite action
Write an r2modman / Thunderstore Mod Manager profile file (.r2z) that can be imported via 'Import profile > From file'. Optionally resolves dependencies and bundles config files. Does not upload anything.
list_communities
List game communities (identifier + name) on Thunderstore. Cached 24h.
resolve_dependencies
Full transitive dependency closure for one or more package versions (latest if no version given). Returns final install set (highest requested version wins, as r2modman does), missing deps, multi-version pins, and the tree.
search_mods
Search a community's mods by name/owner/description/category. First call per community downloads and caches the full package list (can take 10-60s for large games).
