# MCP tools

> The decodx MCP tools by group, and the tools that use your allowance.

:::info[Short answer]

The decodx MCP server has tools in seven groups: Brand, Goals, Ideas and social, Articles, Video, Visibility and Library. Each error from a tool says what is wrong and how to fix it.

:::

| Group | Example tools |
|---|---|
| Brand | `get_brand_kit` · `get_brand_guardrails` · `add_customer_proof` · `add_author_voice` |
| Goals | `list_goals` · `add_goal` · `list_goal_tasks` · `start_goal_task` · `snooze_goal_task` |
| Ideas and social | `list_ideas` · `create_idea` · `draft_from_idea` · `get_social_board` · `mark_posted` · `list_threads` |

## Safe retries

Send `idempotency_key` on each write. decodx then applies a repeated call only once.
