Working with the AI

What the agent can do

The full list of tools the agent has access to, and what they can't do.

Tools available

ToolWhat it does
read_fileReads any file in the project.
write_fileCreates or overwrites a file.
edit_fileApplies targeted edits without rewriting the whole file.
delete_fileRemoves a file.
list_filesLists files in a folder.
get_schemaReads your bound Tadabase app's schema.
create_pageScaffolds a new React page and wires the route.
update_navEdits the sidebar in tada.config.json.
run_commandRuns npm install or scripts inside the dev container.
add_secretDeclares an environment variable — value injected at runtime, never written to a file.

Guardrails

  • npm scripts run with --ignore-scripts and a package allowlist.
  • The agent cannot edit lib/tada-server.js, lib/tada.ts, or server.js — these are SDK files.
  • The agent cannot reach outside your project workspace.
  • Secrets values never enter the agent's context — only the name does.

Tadabase AI builds it, hosts it and keeps it running. Real backend, real domain, real app.
