get_v1_code_ask
Answers a question about the caller org's code with a CITED answer: retrieval packs grounding context, then the synthesizer writes the answer over exactly those spans, which come back alongside it.
Answers a question about the caller org's code with a CITED answer: retrieval packs grounding context, then the synthesizer writes the answer over exactly those spans, which come back alongside it. It never answers without grounding — with no matched code the answer is empty and says so, and with no synthesizer available the citations still come back with "degraded": true so the caller can reason over the spans itself.
| Tool | get_v1_code_ask |
| Door | https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/mcp |
| Method | tools/call (JSON-RPC 2.0) |
| Arguments | 2 |
| Operation | GET /v1/code/ask |
| Product | code |
Arguments
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
q | string | — | — | Q is the question to answer. Required, max 4000 bytes. |
repo | string | — | — | Repo narrows retrieval to one repository. Empty searches every repo the org has indexed. |
This tool's schema does not declare which fields are required, nor any default, nor any enumerated value set. The columns above are empty because the door publishes nothing there, not because the answer is "none" — where a field is constrained, the constraint is stated in that field's own description.
Call it
A tools/call carries every argument in one flat object — nothing binds to a path or a query string. Every declared argument is shown, because the door marks none of them required.
