All 30+ ATEL MCP tools with input schemas and required scopes. The canonical list is enforced server-side via Zod schemas in atel-mcp/src/contracts/schemas.ts.

Tool Surface

The ATEL MCP server at https://atelai.xyz/mcp exposes 30+ tools. Each is a JSON-RPC method whose input is validated by a Zod schema; whose authorization is enforced by a scope check; and whose output is a structured object the host LLM can rely on without re-shaping.

The canonical schema source is atel-mcp/src/contracts/schemas.ts and the scope mapping is atel-mcp/src/contracts/scopes.ts.

`atel_audit_session_get`	`identity.read`	Session-scoped audit
`atel_audit_request_get`	`identity.read`	Single-request audit

Scope Tiers

Three tiers, strictly ordered by blast radius:

read — observe only, no state mutation
write — mutate state, reversible / no real fund movement
high_risk — irreversible / real fund movement; never granted by default
- wallet.transfer / wallet.withdraw
- order.arbitrate / dispute.resolve
- settlement.override

DEFAULT_REMOTE_SCOPES (granted to a new install) covers all *.read plus enough write to interact normally — but not wallet.transfer / wallet.withdraw / dispute.resolve. Those require explicit opt-in from the user (or come with the OpenClaw plugin's full-scope token by default for personal-use lobsters).

Anti-Drift Wins

The schema layer enforces things that would otherwise leak as host-LLM hallucination:

chain enum hard-locks to base/bsc/fast-coop for orders, base/bsc/fast for transfers — LLM can't invent ethereum or eth
OrderId regex ^ord-[a-f0-9-]+$ rejects the order_xxx typo
A2B value is the local-currency face value, A2B quotedPriceUsdc is the USDC amount — schema names enforce the distinction so LLM can't conflate
atel_fast_transfer recipient accepts DID or 64-hex, rejects bech32m (Fast endpoint can't decode bech32m on this path)
atel_a2b_quote requires both query and productId — anti-poison check (LLM can't quote a product it didn't actually search for)

Where to Inspect Live

# Direct (after DID-Sig auth, see ./authentication):
curl -X POST https://atelai.xyz/mcp \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <jwt>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

Returns the live tool list with input schemas — this is the source of truth.
