Reaching a tool that is not announcedLink to this section

text
search_tools({ task: "..." })      find it
describe_tool({ name: "..." })     read its schema
run_tool({ name, args })           execute, with the same checks

What will refuse youLink to this section

  • An account not ticked by the owner. Call list_accounts and use a adAccountId from it.
  • A write on a plan without writes. The tool is absent from the list and refused if called anyway.
  • A write without confirm: true returns a preview and applies nothing. That is not an error.
  • A call to this platform on another platform's dedicated endpoint. The refusal names the URL that serves it.
