SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Enumerate every installed Pixie tool under tools/ and present a table with id, name, and validator status.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Live API-driven tool discovery: returns current status and validation results for each tool.
  • Filesystem fallback: when the API is unavailable, scans the tools directory and runs validators to build the report.
  • Use Case: A developer wants a quick snapshot of all tools and their health to prioritize fixes.

Quick Start

List all installed Pixie tools with their validator status.

FAQPage Schema
How do I list installed Pixie tools and check their validation status?

To list installed Pixie tools and check validation status, enumerate every tool under the tools/ directory and present a table with id, name, and validator status. This provides a quick snapshot of all tools and their health to prioritize fixes.

What happens when the Pixie API is unavailable during tool discovery?

When the Pixie API is unavailable during tool discovery, a filesystem fallback scans the tools/ directory and runs validators directly. This builds a report by reading tool metadata and validation results locally instead of querying the live API.

Does the Pixie tool validation report work without external dependencies?

Yes, the Pixie tool validation report works without external dependencies. It can operate in a filesystem fallback mode that reads tool metadata and runs per-tool validation directly from the tools/ directory when the API is unavailable.

What is the best way to get a health snapshot of all installed Pixie tools?

The best way to get a health snapshot of installed Pixie tools is to query the API or scan the filesystem to generate a deterministic table. This table displays the id, name, and validator status for each tool under tools/.

How does the tool validator determine the status of items in the tools directory?

The tool validator determines status by querying 127.0.0.1:7860 for live API results or performing per-tool validation from the filesystem. It evaluates the metadata in the tools/ directory to yield a concise validation summary.
