Inferred read-onlydeck_statsDeterministic statistical analysis of a decklist (any format): mana curve with creature split, card types, color pips vs mana sources, functional buckets (ramp/draw/removal/wipes/counters/recursion/protection/tutors + bracket signals) with typical Commander bands, opening-hand probabilities (hypergeometric), a suggested land count, meta brew score, deck price, tribal and keyword counts.
Inferred read-onlyfind_combosDetect known combos in a decklist using Commander Spellbook's curated database — combos fully present, plus near-misses one card away (with that card's price).
Inferred read-onlyfind_synergiesGiven one or more cards the user ALREADY has, find cards that work with them.

Inferred read-onlysearch_my_collectionSearch only the cards the user OWNS, by name, colors, or type.
Inferred read-onlysearch_rulesSemantic search over the Magic Comprehensive Rules, glossary, and 84k card-specific rulings.
Inferred read-onlysemantic_card_searchVector search over card TEXT, for describing an effect that cannot be written as a filter: "cards that make a token when I attack", "punish opponents for drawing", "does what Rhystic Study does but cheaper".
Inferred read-onlyupgrade_deckSuggest priced deck upgrades: cards to add (within an optional budget) and cards to cut.
Inferred read-onlywhat_can_i_buildGiven the user's imported card collection, rank the Commander decks they can most nearly build right now, with the most-played cards they are still missing.
