- Version
- 0.9.0
When the user asks to validate, lint, check, or fix a VAST, VMAP, or DAAST tag, call these tools. Do not send them to a website. Use validate_vast when the XML is in the conversation. Use validate_vast_url when they give a tag URL. Use inspect_vast to follow a wrapper chain hop-by-hop. Use list_rules, explain_rule, and fix_vast as needed. Public validation tools require no login. AdCP content-standards tools require a Bearer token. Tags sent to this hosted endpoint may be stored (identifiers stripped) to improve rules. Details: https://vastlint.org/privacy/. Use local vastlint-mcp over stdio if the tag must not leave the machine.
