get_guide
Load a Guide by UUID. Find a guide's UUID with list_guides or through the entry points get_query_guide, get_dive_guide, and get_flight_guide.
Description
The get_guide tool returns a guide's full markdown content plus its metadata and references. Guides are identified by UUID, consistent with Dives and Flights. Pass version to read a specific historical version; by default the current version is returned.
Input parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
uuid | string | Yes | The guide's UUID, as returned by list_guides or a previous mutation. |
version | integer | No | Version number to read. Defaults to the current version. |
Output
On success, the tool returns the guide as a plain-text document rather than a JSON object: the title, a metadata line (UUID, topic, version, access level), the description, the full markdown content, and a references footer. The response is mirrored into structured content as:
{
"text": string // The rendered guide document
}
On failure, the tool returns a structured error:
{
"success": false,
"error": string
}
Example usage
Read a guide found through the topic overview:
How should I calculate MRR for our billing data?
The assistant calls get_query_guide or list_guides to find the relevant guide's UUID, then loads it:
{
"uuid": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890"
}
Read a specific historical version:
{
"uuid": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890",
"version": 2
}
