  • validate_dsl

    Validate a PDF template DSL script for structure, tag/style correctness, and accessibility issues. Runs catalog validation plus alt-text checks. Cheap — no rendering. Returns JSON { valid, issues: [{ severity, message, path, rule }], summary: { errors, warnings } }; `valid` is f…

  • validate_markdown

    Validate a markdown document for PDF/UA-1 accessibility issues (heading hierarchy, missing alt text). Cheap — no rendering. Returns JSON { valid, issues: [{ severity, message, path, rule }], summary: { errors, warnings } }; `valid` is false when any issue has severity 'error'. M…

  • render_dsl_preview

    Render a DSL template + data to a preview PDF. Free (no credits), always watermarked 'PREVIEW — NOT FOR USE'. Returns JSON metadata plus the PDF bytes as an embedded base64 resource. Mirrors POST /api/v1/preview.

  • render_template

    Render any readable template (curated library row or caller-owned) to a real PDF. **BILLED — consumes credits at the rate of 1 credit per 10 pages.** Returns JSON metadata (pageCount, creditsDeducted, creditsRemaining, artifactId) plus the PDF bytes as an embedded base64 resourc…

  • save_template

    Save a user-owned DSL template for later reuse via /api/v1/render. Validates the DSL with the catalog before persisting. Free (no credits). Pass `sampleData` (any JSON value) so the template's binding shape is preserved — the modify-template flow on /ai/chat round-trips this bac…

  • list_templates

    List templates visible to the caller: the curated makesPDF library and the caller's own saved templates. Returns metadata only and one page at a time; fetch a template's DSL with get_template, or render it directly with render_template. Browse the library here before authoring a…

  • get_template

    Fetch a single template (library or caller-owned) by ID, including its full DSL source and sampleData. Mirrors GET /api/v1/templates/:id.

  • update_template

    Update a saved template's DSL, name, description, and/or sampleData. Revalidates the DSL when provided. A DSL that differs from the stored one is recorded in the template's revision history (History tab on /templates/:id); sending the same DSL again records nothing, and name, de…

  • delete_template

    Permanently delete a caller-owned template by ID. This cannot be undone. Library rows cannot be deleted. Returns JSON { templateId, deleted: true }. Mirrors DELETE /api/v1/templates/:id.

  • render_markdown

    Render GitHub-flavored markdown to a real PDF (PDF/A-2A + PDF/UA-1 dual-compliant, tagged). **BILLED - consumes credits at the rate of 1 credit per 10 pages.** Returns JSON metadata (pageCount, creditsDeducted, creditsRemaining, artifactId) plus the PDF bytes as an embedded base…
