API Reference
Cognethics exposes two layers of primitives. The operational layer — 1,867 capabilities across every mega-tool except entity_crud — is what agents reach for to do work: orchestrate, search, run workflows, report, integrate, notify. Underneath, 6,582 typed CRUD operations cover every entity in 50 applications.
Full reference requires sign-in.
The public catalog lists every application, entity, and operation with a one-line description. Sign in to read parameter schemas and permissions, or discover them at runtime with prism_introspect.

Mega-tools
These are the typed entry points an MCP client sees at the door. Every operation is addressed as mega_tool/app/entity/operation and passes the same permission check over MCP and REST.
| Mega-tool | Operations | What it is for |
|---|---|---|
agent_command | 30 | Run, coordinate, and supervise agents and missions. |
collection_op | 15 | Manage custom collections and their records. |
config_manage | 46 | Read and change organization and application configuration. |
document_op | 57 | Ingest, search, read, and export documents and their chunks. |
entity_crud | 6,582 | Create, read, update, delete, list, and search any entity. |
extension_op | 24 | Mint views, pages, and surfaces in the product. |
integration_call | 30 | Call external systems through governed connectors. |
notification_send | 4 | Send governed notifications to people and channels. |
report_query | 533 | Run reports and analytics queries with typed filters. |
smart_action | 563 | Non-CRUD verbs on an entity: apply, trigger, export, reconcile, undo. |
workflow_action | 565 | Start, advance, and resolve governed workflows and approvals. |
Applications
Agent orchestration
The platform runs agents as first-class principals: missions bound a goal and a budget; agents are spawned under a named human's authority and can delegate to other agents; consequential decisions stop for approval; sessions pause, resume, and hand off; every step is written to the audit chain. The orchestration surface is part of the full reference — sign in to browse it.
